Design:

The Nothing Phone (4b) measures 164.4 x 78.2 x 8.6mm and weighs 210 grams. The build uses glass front, plastic frame, and plastic back. IP64 provides dust protection and water splash resistance, not submersion-rated beyond a manufacturer claim of 25cm for 20 minutes. Dragontail Pro Glass protects the display. The back features Nothing's signature transparent-aesthetic design and the Glyph notification LED ring, programmable white LEDs that display notification, charging, and app information without a screen interaction. Available in White, Black, and Blue.

Display:

The Phone (4b) carries a 6.77-inch AMOLED display at 1080 x 2344 pixels (381 ppi) running at 120Hz with 480Hz PWM dimming, 600-nit typical brightness, 1,200-nit HBM, and 2,000-nit peak, Dragontail Pro Glass protection. The 480Hz PWM is the standout display specification, the high dimming rate reduces the imperceptible flicker that causes eye strain and headaches in sensitive users during prolonged screen time.

Performance:

The Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 on 4nm with 8GB RAM and UFS 2.2 storage delivers capable everyday performance for all standard daily tasks. Nothing OS 4.1's minimal software approach means the chip's resources are used more efficiently than on heavily customised Android interfaces. The Adreno 810 handles casual gaming well; demanding 3D titles at maximum settings will show limits. Android update commitment is 3 major upgrades from Android 16 through approximately Android 19 around 2029.
