Nothing has officially announced the chipset that will drive its highly anticipated CMF Phone 1, marking a significant milestone ahead of its launch. Following recent statements from co-founder Akis Evangelidis touting the device's performance, the revelation aligns with expectations of a powerhouse in its price segment.
While specific pricing details remain undisclosed, tipster Yogesh Brar suggests the CMF Phone 1 could debut at Rs. 15,999 with bank offers, positioning it competitively under the Rs. 20,000 mark. Central to its capabilities is the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 5G SoC, boasting an octa-core architecture built on a advanced 4nm process by TSMC and supporting up to 8GB of RAM.

Beyond confirming the chipset, Nothing has teased features such as an AMOLED screen and potential design innovations like a removable back, hinted at in promotional materials showing a removable screw. Leaks suggest the device will debut in black and orange variants.
