Nothing Phone (4b) Revealed: Epic Battery Life, Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 & Iconic Glyphs

Nothing has just dropped its latest mid-range contender: the Nothing Phone (4b). Designed to sit comfortably between the Phone (4a) and the entry-level (3a) Lite, this new release trades top-tier performance for absolute endurance. If you're looking for a daily driver that simply refuses to die, this might be your next upgrade.

Here is a deep dive into the specs, design quirks, and global pricing of the Nothing Phone (4b).

 

 

A Battery Built for the Long Haul

Nothing is officially crowning the Phone (4b) as its longest-lasting smartphone to date. The global model packs a hefty 5,200mAh battery, which the brand claims can power through 22 hours of continuous video streaming.

Indian consumers get an even sweeter deal with an exclusive 6,000mAh battery variant. Regardless of your region, both versions support 33W wired charging and 7.5W reverse charging to juice up your accessories on the go.

 

 

Snapdragon 6 Gen 4: Efficient & Capable

Under the hood, the Phone (4b) is powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4. While it is essentially a downclocked version of the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 found in the Phone (4a), it still offers a solid performance bump over the Dimensity 7300 Pro inside the (3a) Lite.

The phone comes standard with LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.2 storage. Most regions will see an 8GB/128GB configuration, while India gets an additional 8GB/256GB option via Flipkart. Note that there is no microSD card slot, so you'll want to choose your storage capacity wisely.

 

 

120Hz OLED Display & Signature Glyph Design

The device sports a gorgeous 6.77-inch OLED display with a 1080p+ resolution and a buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Whether you're gaming or scrolling, it gets plenty bright—hitting 1,200 nits in outdoor mode and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. Nothing has also protected the panel with Dragontrail Pro Glass for added durability.

It wouldn't be a Nothing phone without the iconic Glyph Bar. The back panel features a simplified layout with four white LEDs and one red one. You can customize these in Nothing OS to act as timers, recording indicators, and notification alerts.

 

 

Camera System: Keeping It Simple

The camera setup on the Phone (4b) keeps things straightforward and effective:

• Main Sensor: 50MP (1/2.76”) with an f/1.8 aperture and OIS for stable, crisp shots.

• Ultra-Wide: 8MP (120° field-of-view) for capturing expansive landscapes.

• Selfie Camera: 16MP front shooter with an 82° lens.

Content creators will appreciate that the main camera can shoot 4K video at 30fps or ultra-smooth 1080p at 60fps.

 

 

Smart Features, OS, and Pricing

Nothing hasn't skimped on the extras. The Phone (4b) includes an optical in-display fingerprint reader, stereo speakers, and an Essential Key on the side to quickly trigger AI-powered apps, voice commands, or search. While its IP64 rating officially guarantees splash resistance, internal tests show it surviving submersion up to 25cm for 20 minutes.

The device ships with Nothing OS 4.1 (based on Android 16) and promises excellent software support: 3 years of OS updates and 6 years of security patches.

Pricing & Availability:

• Europe: €330

• UK: £300

• India: ₹35,000 (8GB/128GB) / ₹39,000 (8GB/256GB)
