Nothing Phone 4(b) Goes Low-Cost by Trimming Core Specs

Nothing's Phone 4(b) launches at £299 (~$399), undercutting the 4(a) but at the cost of several downgrades: plastic back instead of glass, a lower‑resolution 6.77‑inch display with dimmer brightness and lower PPI, a slower Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chip, older UFS 2.2 storage, a reduced dual-camera setup (no telephoto), and slower 33 W charging despite a larger 5,200 mAh battery. The price cut is modest, and reviewers argue the 4(a) remains the better value for only a bit more, thanks to superior display, performance, camera versatility, and charging.
