And that's why, some unboxings are boring, some are okay, and some are exciting. But when we get a box like this, it's a super exciting unboxing. Yes, this is the CMF Phone 1 box. But in this box, there are many other things along with the CMF Phone 1. But that's why it's not super exciting. This phone is a little different and unique. There are many things that you won't get in other phones, especially in this price range. There are some things that I don't know why they've given, but they have. You'll like this phone, you'll dislike it, that's fine. But you can't ignore this phone because it's different. It's a trend-setting phone. Let's open Wonderful by Design. Yes, this is the 60-70% exciting thing. Its design is very different. You can see the partnership between D-Nage Engineering and CMF and Nothing.

There are already many boxes. This is the CMF Phone 1. CMF is written on the top, and Phone 1 is written on the bottom. This is the case. The case is a little different; it's a replaceable back. It's just not a case; it's a stand. There's a lanyard. I think it's a Chinese, South Korean, or Japanese trend where you hang the phone and roam around. So it's for that. And then you have a card case. Did you think that's all? No, there's a lot more. There are 4 more boxes. There's a 33W power adapter, which you won't get in the box. If you buy it, you won't get this media box. But you'll have to buy this separately. There's a Watch Pro 2 bezel and a strap set. In which unboxing did you see so many boxes? Do let us know. I don't think, I don't remember.

There's Watch Pro 2, and then you have Buds Pro 2. I'm not going to do all these things in just 1 unboxing. Let's keep the phone-related things. We'll keep the rest aside. There's an interesting thing, this is black, and the rest are white boxes. I don't know why. Last time you couldn't close the box once you opened it. Now they've changed it. They've taken the feedback and given this box where you can open it like other boxes. So not bad at all. There are different colours in it. You can change the back case, and the colour will change. What else is there in the box? USB Type-C to Type-C charging cable. Some documentation. What else is there? What's this? This is a SIM card tool. Let's keep this aside. It's a bit confusing, I'll tell you why. Let's keep this aside and talk about it. Let's open it.

What's this design? It's plain. There's something that's moving. And then there are screws here. It's a plastic back, very interesting. This black looks like the metal back we saw in 2010. But this is plastic, let's change it. These are screws, and there's something useful about it. You won't get a flathead screwdriver in this box. You'll get it when you buy the case. Which case should I put? I'll put it in front of you. The case costs Rs 1500. Now I'm going to replace it in front of you. Look at this, you get this with the case. So there's a flathead screwdriver and a SIM card tool. If you want to change the back case, you'll have to remove the SIM card tray, which is a hybrid SIM card slot. Let me quickly remove this. By the way, if you open this, the warranty will be void. In fact, they say to change it.

We're going to make money with accessories. Rs 1500 for a plastic back, that's not done. This is a bold move, let's see how successful it is. The case is removed, & the phone looks like this from the inside. This is the battery, & this is the frame part. It seems metal, yes. If I talk about the case, the camera housing is metal, & so is the button. You get this multifunctional button in the case. Which one should I put? Black or orange? Black. Yes, I also like the black. You can mix & match the colors. You also get a color-matched SIM card tray in the case. Not bad at all, very nicely done. Similarly, if you want this color, you can use this case too. So this is done, let's look at the phone. If I talk about the in-hand feel, the corners seem sharp, & the phone is a little big in-hand. If it was rounded, then it would have been better.

The weight is around 200g. The battery is 203.7Ah, which is not much for a 5000mAh battery. But for that size, it is big. Even though it doesn't have a glass back, it is that heavy. Let's see how much the case weighs. The case weighs around 16-17g. We don't know about the protection yet, but we're going to drop it. Let's do this. 1, 2 & boom! What a sound! Let's drop it down & see. What happens if you drop it in your pocket? Oh! No, nothing. Let's drop it from a little higher. 1, 2 & boom! Alright, nothing. I think it is well built. Will it get loose after 3-4 months of use? We'll have to see. Let's look at the ports & buttons. There's a sim card tray, USB Type C, speaker grill. There's a silver on off button on the right.

There's a noise-canceling microphone on the top, and a volume rocker on the left. Let's start the phone. The display is good. It's a 6.67'' 120Hz AMOLED display with 2000 nits brightness. It's an LTPS display, so you can use it on 60Hz & 120Hz. The bezels are of average size. But all the bezels are of uniform size. The display actually looks good. I like the display. Let's talk about the specifications. It comes with Dimensity 7300 processor. If you're thinking that it's a 7200 processor, then it's not. It's a 4NM processor. But it's a 7050 processor. Its AnTuTu score is 6.5, which is around 6.5 Lakhs. So it's alright, but not the best. Let's talk about the price. It's a 6GB 128GB variant.

The base variant should've been 8GB 128GB. 6GB 128GB is available in 15,999 Rs. And in 17,999 Rs, you get 8GB 128GB variant. It should've been a 256GB variant. I really think so. If you're going to have more offers on the 1st day, then you'll get it at a cheaper price. But generally, 15,999 Rs for 6GB 128GB is the price. It has a 5000 mAh battery. It has LPDDR4X RAM type. It has UFS 2.2 storage type. So yeah, it's decent. It has 33W charging, but it doesn't come with an adapter box. You'll have to buy it separately, which costs Rs 750. If I talk about the gaming, you can play 40FPS games on HDR. If you play on the lowest setting, then it's 60FPS.

It has a decent display. But I'd like to talk about the multimedia. It has mono speakers. You don't have stereo speakers on this. It has average sound quality. The video viewing experience will be good. But the highlight of this phone is the unique design. But the 2nd is the OS. You get a clean UI experience. I mean literally, when you set it up out of the box, there are absolutely no dark patterns. It doesn't ask for a 3rd party app. You get around 25-26 apps. You can uninstall nearly all the apps except the default phone apps. So it's one of the cleanest UI out there. Your experience is going to be very good. And then you get nothing UI on top of that. The widgets are standout. The dotted font looks cool, that's for sure. Whether it's hardware or software, I'd say it gets 90 out of 100 marks for its uniqueness. But you know Kaalpe, it's a hype machine.

If I talk about the 7300 processor, they were literally bashing the 695. But 7300 is not something which is 7200, where you get more than 8 lakhs. I mean, they should stop doing this. And secondly, this is a mid-range phone, between Rs 15-20K. They should've definitely given an adapter. I think that's a big mistake CMF has made with this phone. It's the 1st phone launch, it's a new brand, service centres, adapters, all these small things are very important for Indian consumers. If I talk about the sensors, all sensors come with in-display fingerprint sensors, face unlock, they work quite well. If I talk about connectivity, that is also quite good, it supports Bluetooth 5.4, all the bands, 9 bands are supported, so there's no problem with 5G, VAO NR is also available, so thumbs up for connectivity.

If we talk about the camera, I really think that CMF should work on the camera. And another thing, when the Nothing phone was launched, they had bashed the 2MP camera. Again, I'm saying that this hype machine should be controlled, because that goes against them. They said that they're giving 50MP on the Nothing phone, but 2MP is rubbish. And now they've given 50MP on the CMF phone. It doesn't even have OIS. The camera is alright, I'd say it's average. There are a lot of photos in the original quality. They've taken a lot of photos. Check it out, I'm giving you the G-Drive link. In normal conditions, they come out, but it could have been better. In this particular price range, there are better phones with better cameras. Camera Features. One good thing is that you can shoot 4K videos in 4K 30FPS, so that's good.

And you get 2X lossless zoom, video mode, portrait mode, photo mode. These are all the normal standard features like timelapse, pano & expert. Where's slow motion? Oh, there's slow motion. Yes, there's slow motion mode too. So the basic camera features are all there. Selfie is 16MP. Other features are important, one is that you have to give it to nothing. The widget that you can keep on the lock screen is seriously good & helpful. You get an IP52 certification, so it's basically resistant & not proof. You don't get LED lights, glyph lights, but you definitely get colours. There are 2-3 things that you can buy separately as accessories. For example, this case is for Rs 1500 & this one is for Rs 799. We've tried it & to be honest, I don't know why they've used this. The quality is alright, not all that great.

I really don't know how many people are going to use this, but surely I didn't like it that much. There's a bright orange colour on top of the orange, which is a match. It's a CMF, Color Material & Finish. CMFs are known for their material & finish. I'd say it's alright. Now look at this lanyard cable. By the way, do let me know how many people are going to use it. How many people have liked it for their phones? So these are the small things. I'd like to say that Nothing has tried something different with CMF, which other brands haven't tried. Whether it's going to be successful, whether it's going to be useful, I'm not too sure at this point of time. I can't say that these people are going to buy a Rs 800-Rs 1500 case separately. The case is alright, you can definitely buy it after 6 months. But these accessories, where I think they want to make some

money out of it. I'm not too sure about it. Let me tell you that you get a stand with it. So as a stand, you can use it. I'm going to tell you my verdict about CMF Phone 1, and whether you should buy it or not. But before that, let me tell you about Watch Pro 2 and Buds Pro 2. If I talk about its price, the Watch Pro 2 with leather belt and leather strap is Rs. 5500. And the normal one is Rs. 5000 in 4999. And the Buds Pro 2 is Rs. 4999, meaning Rs. 4300. You can replace the back, and you can replace the bezel as well. One is rounded, and the other is flat. Should we make a video on it? Should we tell you all the details about the Watch and Buds Pro 2? It's coming on our Marathi channel, Trakin Tech Marathi, so wait for that.

Go & check it out. I might give it to you in the iCard. But let's talk about CMF Phone 1. 2 things are definitely highlighted. If these 2 things are important to you, then you should definitely check out CMF Phone 1. 1st is the uniqueness factor. When you're carrying this phone, people will ask you, Which phone is this? It's a bit different. That's what they're going to do. 2nd big plus is the OS. You get a clean UI experience. They've promised 2 years of major updates & 3 years of security updates. Which is ok. You're definitely going to enjoy the experience. Performance-wise, the average camera is ok. I mean nothing more to talk about that. The features are also ok, but I love the widgets & OS. So the software is a big plus. The CMF color, material & finish is definitely unique. Again, like I said about Nothing Phone 1, I'd say that it's

definitely going to attract geeky techy people. Do you like CMF Phone? Do let us know if you don't like it. That's all for this video, until the next one. Keep Trakin & Stay Safe!
