End of the line

Nothing has started rolling out the final software update for the Phone 1marking the end of the device’s promised update cycle. The release includes the July 2026 Android security patch along with bug fixes, general improvements and better system stability.

What the update includes

The last update is not a major feature drop, but it does bring practical fixes and maintenance improvements. Nothing says the Phone 1 is receiving the final official patch after completing its promised software support window.

The update also follows the device’s last major OS upgrade to Android 15meaning no further Android version upgrades are expected for the Phone 1.

Support timeline

Nothing’s support promise for the Phone 1 covered three Android version upgrades and four years of security patches. With this rollout, the phone has now reached the end of that cycle.

That means users should not expect any more official security patches or feature updates for the model going forward. The handset will still work normally, but it will no longer receive new software maintenance from Nothing.

What it means for users

For existing owners, this final update is important because it keeps the phone current with the latest security fixes before support ends. After that, the device will remain usable, but it will gradually become less protected against newly discovered vulnerabilities over time.

The Phone 1 was Nothing’s first smartphone, so this update also marks the close of an important chapter for the brand.
