Nothing is preparing to expand its smartphone lineup with the launch of the Nothing Phone 4b, the first model in its new “b” series. The handset is expected to debut next month, with the company already teasing its design and confirming a blue colour option. While official specifications have not yet been fully disclosed, a new leak has outlined several key hardware details, offering a clearer picture of what to expect.
According to recent information shared by a tipster, the Nothing Phone 4b could focus on delivering a balanced mix of performance, display quality, and battery life, positioning it as a competitive mid-range offering.
Display
The Nothing Phone 4b is tipped to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. If confirmed, this would place it in line with many mid-range smartphones that prioritise smoother scrolling and improved visual responsiveness.
The large screen size suggests the device will be aimed at users who consume a lot of content, including video streaming and gaming.
Performance
Under the hood, the handset is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor from Qualcomm. This detail aligns with a recent Geekbench listing, which also indicated that the phone could ship with 8GB of RAM.
The same benchmark suggested that the device will run Android 16-based Nothing OS out of the box. Performance scores listed on Geekbench included 1,088 points in single-core testing and 3,155 points in multi-core results, pointing to solid mid-range performance.
| Benchmark | Score |
|---|---|
| Single-core | 1,088 |
| Multi-core | 3,155 |
Camera
In the camera department, the Nothing Phone 4b is said to feature a 50-megapixel primary rear camera. While details of the secondary sensor have not yet surfaced, Nothing has already confirmed through teasers that the phone will include a dual-camera setup.
This suggests the second camera could be an ultra-wide or depth sensor, although official confirmation is still awaited.
Battery
The device is tipped to pack a 5,400mAh battery, which would place it above the 5,000mAh mark commonly seen in this segment. If accurate, this capacity could support extended daily usage, especially when paired with a power-efficient chipset.
Charging specifications have not yet been revealed.
Storage
According to the leak, the Nothing Phone 4b may be offered in two storage variants:
| RAM | Storage |
|---|---|
| 8GB | 128GB |
| 8GB | 256GB |
The handset is also expected to arrive in three colour options. While the names of the finishes have not been disclosed, the light blue variant shown in official promotional material is likely to be one of the launch colours.
Design
Nothing has already confirmed a notable design change for the Phone 4b. Unlike previous models, it will not feature the segmented Glyph Interface. Instead, the handset will come with a compact horizontal Glyph Bar positioned near the bottom of the camera module.
This lighting element is expected to support visual notifications, charging status indicators, and app-specific alerts, maintaining Nothing’s signature visual identity in a more streamlined form.
Launch
The Nothing Phone 4b is expected to be officially unveiled on July 7. The company is likely to reveal the remaining specifications, pricing details, and availability information during the launch event.
As the first model in the new “b” series, the Phone 4b could set the tone for Nothing’s future mid-range offerings, focusing on design-led hardware combined with practical everyday performance.
