Nothing Phone (4b) (8GB + 128GB)

Nothing has expanded its lineup with the Nothing Phone (4b), a phone built around a 120 refresh rate on a Super AMOLED panel that makes scrolling feel buttery smooth. Designed for heavy users, media & streaming, everyday use, it brings 5G connectivity, a large 6000mAh battery, a smooth 120Hz display, and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset into one well-rounded package.

The phone sits at a competitive price in the Indian market. It doesn't try to compete with premium flagships — instead it focuses on delivering a balanced everyday experience, and in that mission it largely succeeds.

Display

The phone features a 6.77-inch Super AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1080 x 2344 resolution. Scrolling through apps, social media and websites feels noticeably smoother than standard 60Hz displays. With 2000 nits of peak brightness, it stays perfectly readable even outdoors. The ~381 PPI density keeps text sharp and crisp. Deep blacks and punchy colours make it excellent for OTT streaming and YouTube.

It scores around 7,01,545 on AnTuTu, which is solid for this segment — casual games and multitasking are handled without major issues.

It runs Android 16 with Nothing OS 4.1 on top out of the box. The interface is clean, well-optimised and easy to live with day to day.

Should You Buy the Nothing Phone (4b)?

If you're looking for a phone for heavy users and media & streaming, the Nothing Phone (4b) is a strong option. Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 performance and massive 6000mAh battery are its standout strengths. It's not perfect though — no wireless charging and no 3.5mm headphone jack may bother some buyers. For students, office users and families looking for a dependable device in this budget, it is an easy recommendation.
