Since its release, the Nothing Phone 1 has been embroiled in a number of controversies, with the most recent involving the smartphone’s promised maximum brightness, which fell short in an actual test. According to a real-world test conducted by a German technology journal called ComputerBase, the Nothing Phone 1 was unable of exceeding a maximum brightness of 700 nits. Previously, the Nothing Phone 1 was promoted as being capable of reaching a maximum brightness of 1200 nits.
Carl Pei’s tech brand Nothing says the Nothing Phone 1’s software limits its brightness to 700 nits, however, the hardware can achieve 1,200 nits.” The hardware can reach 1,200 nits peak brightness, but the software caps it at 700 nits,” a company spokeswoman said.
