Is the CMF Phone 1 worth buying?
One of the most interesting budget-focused phones we’ve seen for a long time

The CMF Phone 1 is the first phone to come under Nothing’s CMF (‘Colour, Material and Finish’) budget sub-brand.
This particular model stands out from the crowd with its vibrant finish and modular design, making it the most interesting budget smartphone we’ve encountered in a long time.
Key features include a big and bright 6.67-inch Super AMOLED display, a 50-megapixel rear camera with a dedicated portrait sensor and, of course, the modular design. This makes it easy to replace the rear case if the back cracks or you just fancy a colour change, with additional back panels costing £30 a piece. You can also add accessories using the wheel screw on the bottom edge, with Nothing offering a lanyard hook, a kickstand and a magnetic backplate with a magnetic card wallet.
The phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 5G and 8GB of RAM which we found to be great for everyday use and casual gaming. It carries a large 5000 mAh battery which can keep you going for up to two days with light use.
“While Nothing’s CMF Phone 1 won’t be competing with some of the most capable phones around, its modular design charm, attractive Android user interface and solid everyday performance all punch well above its £209 price point”, wrote Cam Bunton in his review of the phone.
