Nothing is shaking up the branding of its cheapest phones, following up last year’s Phone 3A Lite with a new Phone 4B. Combining design elements of the 4A and 4A Pro, it follows Nothing’s previous cheaper handsets in skipping the US market.
The company already uses the “A” branding to market its cheaper tier of products, and the first “B” phone sits another level below that. The 4B seemingly replaces the naming convention used for last year’s Phone 3A Lite.
Design-wise, it borrows a little from the two 4A phones, which launched in March this year. The unibody look is similar to the 4A Pro, though now in plastic rather than metal, but it pairs that with a “refined” version of the Glyph Bar notification LEDs seen on the regular 4A. The Phone 4B will be available in white, black, and blue colors, and has an IP64 rating for dust and water protection.
