Last week, Nothing held a press event where it made a few announcements about the brand’s roadmap and teased some details about Nothing’s phone (1). Today, the company tweeted that it will be holding an announcement tomorrow, April 1.

Last week, the company announced that it was preparing its first smartphone aimed at being a “breath of fresh air to the sleepy smartphone industry”. Carl Pei, founder of Nothing, said that Nothing plans to build an open ecosystem to rival other ecosystems which lock users into their product lines.
We know that Nothing plans to use a Qualcomm chipset on the phone (1), likely the flagship one that’s available when the phone is being manufactured. Otherwise, there aren’t any actual specifications offered, but that may change tomorrow when Nothing makes its “(1) more thing” announcement.

It was confirmed that the Nothing phone (1) would be released sometime over the summer. It was also noted that three years of OS updates, plus four years of security updates are guaranteed for the phone.
The Nothing Launcher is coming next month. This will give some Android users a chance to feel the vibe that Nothing hopes to pull off on the phone (1), complete with a dot-matrix font.
April 1 is normally a date when brands and companies made light-hearted joke announcements about either non-existent products or make up ridiculous policies for fun. Maybe Nothing has plans to announce a true product on the day that is usually reserved for jokes or fake announcements.
