There's a Nothing Phone 1 clone at MWC and Carl Pei just posed with it (Video)

They say imitation is the best form of flattery. Nothing’s Carl Pei is finding that out firsthand on the MWC 2023 show floor, where Unihertz has announced a device called the Luna. If you put it next to the Nothing Phone 1, which Pei did and posed for the camera, you’ll see that it boldly copies Nothing’s Glyph interface.

On the Phone 1, the Glyph interface lights up when you get a call or notification. It also shows a cool charging indicator. The Unihertz device also lights up for notifications and music, but there are no lights for charging. However, the phone has two variants, one with white lights and the other with colored lights at the back.

Besides its lit-up back panel, which deals a different lighting pattern compared to the Phone 1, the Unihertz Luna doesn’t have a lot in common with Nothing’s flagship. It features a MediaTek Helio G99 processor, 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, a 5,000mAh battery, 18W charging, a triple camera setup headlined by a 108MP camera, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

We had a chance to see the phone at MWC 2023, but unfortunately, the company hasn’t shared any details about the phone’s release date. A Unihertz representative did tell us that Luna comes out in March and will cost “no more than $300.”
