Nothing's first smartphone is coming on July 12 and so far, it seems that we have known almost everything there is to know about it.

Prior to the launch on July 12, there are a couple of new things that have leaked and it could make it all exciting for the fans.

Based on a tip from Yogesh Brar, it is said that the Nothing Phone (1) will have a “great camera performance.” He says that device will have a ultra-wide camera that can also take macro shots.

In the official blogpost, it is said that the Nothing Phone (1) will have just two cameras that have all the flagship-like features. The main camera will have a 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor that comes with a f/1.8 aperture lens and has a 1/1.67-inch sensor size. Nothing says that camera sensor can support 10-bit colours. The main camera also comes with OIS and EIS features. This is assisted by a secondary ultra-wide camera with a 114-degree field of view.
