Pre-Ordered Nothing Phone (1)? Then You Might Not Like This

Almost everything about the upcoming Nothing Phone (1) is now out to the public, including the fact that the device is powered by the Snapdragon 778G+ SoC, and not the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. The company did give a window to pre-order the smartphone in India via Flipkart via an invite-only system.

So many people sold Nothing Phone (1) invites online, as the smartphone was supposed to be only available for those who had an invite code. It now looks like users can pre-order Nothing Phone (1) on Flipkart without needing any invite. All they have to do is pay Rs. 2,000 to reserve the Nothing Phone (1).

While this is great news for those who didn’t get invite codes, the loyalists might not take this positively. There could be two reasons for this move. One, the company might not have received as many pre-orders as it was expecting or it just wants to give a fair opportunity to everyone.
