Design of CMF Phone 1
Being a sub-brand of Nothing, CMF’s first smartphone can also have some unique features. The phone has an interchangeable back color panel, which you can change according to your choice. In this you get orange, blue, black and white color panels. The back panel of the device we have is blue in color. You are also given tools in the phone to change the back panel.

CMF has also used unique design elements in its first phone, due to which it looks very attractive. Especially the interchangeable back panel and camera module of the phone look very attractive. The back cover of the phone has a leather-like finishing, due to which the phone can be gripped easily.
You will find good finishing on all four corners of the phone. On one side of this phone you will find the volume button and on the other side you will find the power button. At the bottom side you will find the speaker grill and port for USB Type C cable. You will like the overall design of the phone very much.

Display of CMF Phone 1
This first smartphone of CMF has a 6.67-inch Super AMOLED LTPS display. The phone’s display supports 120Hz refresh rate. Its display has a center aligned punch-hole design. The peak brightness of the phone’s display is up to 2000 nits. At the same time, the typical brightness of this phone will be up to 700 nits, in which you do not have any problem in reading or watching any content.
The phone’s display works well even in direct sunlight. You can easily see the screen’s content, icons etc. I watched some web series on this CMF phone, in which I found good visual quality. Just like the design of the phone, you will also like its display.
Performance of CMF Phone 1
This first phone of CMF comes with MediaTek’s processor. It has MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor, which is equipped with 4nm TSMC processing technology and its clock speed is up to 2.8GHz. With this octacore processor, you get good performance during multi-tasking and gaming. I tried playing NFS on this smartphone, I did not see any problem of hanging or back panel heating in this phone. This is a budget range processor, so you can also play heavy games on it. The performance of the phone will also not disappoint you according to this price range.

This smartphone has Nothing OS 2.6 based on Android 14, which will give the experience of near stock Android. While setting up the phone, you will have the option to choose either Nothing or Google UI. If you want to use this phone on the actual Google UI, then you will get icons etc. in the phone like a normal Android phone.
On the other hand, if you want to use Nothing’s UI, then you can select Nothing’s OS. I have selected Nothing OS in this phone, which is quite unique. The uniqueness can be seen in its app icons and widgets etc. In terms of software also, this Nothing phone will give you a bloatware free i.e. stock Android experience.

CMF Phone 1 Battery
CMF Phone 1 has a 5,000mAh battery, which has 33W USB Type C charging feature. The company has not provided a charger with the phone, you can buy its compatible CMF 65W charger separately. I have charged the phone with this charger. It takes 50 to 55 minutes to charge the phone. The battery backup of this phone is good. You can easily use it for one and a half to two days after fully charging it once.
Camera of CMF Phone 1
There is a dual camera setup in the back of CMF Phone 1. The phone has a 50MP main camera. A 2MP secondary camera is available with it. It has a 16MP selfie camera. Talking about the camera performance of CMF’s first budget smartphone, you can click decent pictures in daylight. However, low light and night photography may disappoint you.

Our verdict
We have tested every aspect of this phone at our level. We have checked everything from the performance of the phone to the camera, battery, user interface etc. The design of this phone is unique and the youth will like it. Apart from this, the performance of the phone is also very good. The best thing we found in this phone is that you will not find any bloatware in it. Download and use the app you want to use. Only basic Google apps will be available in it. This phone is much better than the phones of other brands coming for Rs 15,999 and will not disappoint you. The weight of the phone is a bit heavy, due to which it is a bit difficult to use it single handed.
