Nothing is launching its 4b phone on Monday, July 7 at 3:30 p.m. IST, marking the company’s bid to build a mass-market phone brand. The 4b is designed as an accessible entry point into the Nothing ecosystem, running a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chip paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The phone costs less than $300 in most markets. Nothing spent the last two years building software features that distinguish its phones—cleaner Android skins, better update support, and a focus on privacy. The 4b extends those principles to a budget-friendly price point.

The Display and Camera Setup

The 4b has a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Nothing tuned the screen for color accuracy and brightness in sunlight, a constant pain point on cheaper phones. The camera system includes a 50MP primary sensor and a 50MP front-facing camera for video calls and selfies.

Battery life lasts a full day on moderate use. The 5,400mAh battery pairs with 45W fast charging, so you can get back to half charge in roughly 30 minutes.

Software and User Experience

Nothing’s OS 3 runs on the 4b with several layers of customization built in. The company ships the phone with its own launcher, icon pack, and quick settings redesign that strip out the bloat most Android phones carry. Updates are guaranteed for three years, major versions for four.

The design borrows from Nothing’s signature aesthetic—a clean back with minimal branding and a flat frame in black or white. It’s not flashy. It works.

Who It’s For

The 4b targets people who want a reliable, fast Android phone without overpaying for flagship features they won’t use. School students, first-time smartphone buyers, and anyone tired of sluggish budget phones will find something here.

The 4b launches globally Monday—same time in India, Europe, and beyond. If you’ve been waiting for Nothing to drop a phone that doesn’t cost half a month’s rent, this is it.
