Earlier this month, CEO Carl Pei had teased the Android 13 update for the Nothing Phone 1 . He posted a screenshot of the About Phone section of the Nothing Phone 1 running the Nothing OS 1.5.0, which was suggested to be based on Android 13. The Nothing Phone 1 runs a near stock version of Android, and the new Android 13-based Nothing OS update should make things smoother as well as bring some new improvements and features.
Nothing had recently started to roll out the Nothing OS 1.1.7 update for Phone 1 users. This update included the November 2022 Android security patch in addition to bug fixes and other minor improvements. Prior to this, Imint announced a partnership with Nothing to provide improved stabilisation in video. The London-based manufacturer was also one of the first ones to enable Jio True 5G support via an OTA update to users in India.
The Nothing Phone 1, the first smartphone from the London-based company, was launched in India in July. The phone is priced at Rs. 32,999 in India for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant and Rs. 35,999 for the 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant.
