I liked the CMF Phone 1 as it has a unique design. But not without some drawbacks especially there is no charger in the box. The selfie cam is mediocre. No OIS on the main cam, No NFC and only a single speaker. Btw, the ending is unexpected.😂
@OneDollaBillАй бұрын
No nfc or ultrawide camera is kinda weird. They couldve even used the 8mp uw sensor that a lot of midrangers have, its better than no ultrawide at all. Nice thing is they added a 3d printing instructions for people to print their own back covers.

No NFC would be a deal breaker if I were shopping at this price range, I remember 3-4 years ago you could get a X3 NFC with NFC in the name, 120hz, same charging wattage and good battery for slightly less than this one. Especially considering they're targeting developed markets where even if you're looking at a budget phone, you likely still have a debit card, and I don't think anybody will be getting a more expensive nothing phone to get NFC at this price, they will just get a Poco or Galaxy A. It's a shame, it would've had the fundamentals done perfectly if it weren't for this and people won't have to hold back from getting this work of art 😔

@KunalMazumdarАй бұрын
At the price it is a VFM for Indian market. Looks cool. And interchangeable panels and accessories make it more practical. Extra back panels cost about 1000 INR or about 12$ each. Last but not least you qcan easily change the battery and or parts like the old Poco F1 which I used almost 5 years with 2 times changed batteries. Last but not least this is 5G enabled. So for next 3/4 years you don't need to worry. As for cons? 1. NFC, it is an alien thing in India. We use Camera to scan and pay. 2. No charger, we already have old fast chargers or third oarty chargers in the market. 3. Duel speakers, it has a 3.5 audio jack and good wired headphones comes at $4/$5 or 300/400 INR. And even good wireless ear buds comes about 10$/15$ or 1000/1500 INR. Overall I will say it looks great comparing to boring other models, accessories makes it fun and the OS seems cool.

@pedrooliveira4875Ай бұрын
Now I can say: CMF = Cool Mother F@cker It has been a long time since removable back panels. It's the first CMF phone so it as to be affordable. I think it's a sub18 max sub 21 kind of target people. Considering that all products of CMF have a pro version let's hope in a short coming Phone 1 Pro with stereo speakers and NFC. Excellent review as always. (Xiaomi should learn something about software optimisation and battery life with nothing)
