      @@YRO. That's what I tried to meant actually, I worded wrongly. You can see some menus comes from directly Google. One UI is absolute beautiful and how every phone should adapt it's philosophy *top side of the screen to look bottom side to use* they were perfect up to One UI 3. Even in Landscape mode the ui worked as an eye sore. But after that Material You happened. I don't like the notification section right now. I miss those old conversation and silent notifications category. Select Widget screen and share menu are also mess, they were directly pixel copy features. Hope you understand. 😊

    I really appreciate Nothing's approach to software. It reminds me a lot of how OnePlus used to be up to Oxygen OS 11. Retained the good core functionality of Android while adding to it in meaningful ways that made sense all while keeping the experience light. I really hope they end up being successful and reviewers don't just make them the next whipping boy for Samsung the way many did with LG and OnePlus.

This is made for people who wanted minimal phone use who dont want phone to be a distraction. They wanted you to use the phone only for important purposes or when u really wanted , otherwise it would not distract you with its monochromatic ui and glyph notification helps u to stay away from it. This phone is made for people who feel they are wasting lot of time in phones . This phone every design elements are done in a way that u wont get distracted by ur phone with poppy colors notifications..

    8 Gen 1 runs down the battery too quickly. I wish they had made the jump to 8 Gen 2.

      @koreyb SD 8+ Gen 1 is the next best SoC to the 8 Gen 2. If Nothing chose the latter the price of the phone would be even higher.
