The first (1) phone models reach consumers’ hands and with them their first technical concerns emerge. Some users notice green tints on their screen as well as dead pixels around the front camera.
Sometimes it’s nice to be among the first buyers of a product, but sometimes there are also some issues to overcome, as is currently the case for Nothing. Barely getting into the hands of early users, Phone (1) is already having its first hardware problems.
Green color screens and smudges around the front camera
Early adopters had the misfortune of getting “flawed” models. These people had an unpleasant surprise when they saw their screen turn green while for others, the pixels were dead around the front camera.
Even an Indian user who got a replacement unit had the misfortune to come across another model with the same problem.

Obviously, he’s not the only one who has experienced this screen color defect as the issue has also been reported several times by other buyers who have complained on Twitter or Reddit.
I received my phone 1 today…..found a screen with green color on top of the screen..please solve it, I am very disappointed 😞…. Fan of the beauty of the phone please have it replaced or repaired as I drop a mail on none support with my email harishjangra@outlook.com pic.twitter.com/B6FcyLc22L

These failures seem to mainly affect models from India at the moment. So it can be a problem confined to the country where these defective units are distributed.

Hi Carl, Nothing new in Nothing Phone 1, we’ve already seen the same “Green Tint display” issue on some previous OP’s phones as well. So what is all the hype? Tweet embed Tweet embed Tweet embed pic.twitter.com/ODfBPSna5j—IronHrt (@IronHrt2018) July 13, 2022
What is certain is that this is not good publicity for Nothing, which considers the Indian market as a priority market.
At the same time, other users have also reported dead pixels appearing around the front camera of their smartphone, a few hours after the first use.
We received the Indian Retail Unit Nothing phone (1) this morning. And just three hours later, we see dead pixels around our unit’s selfie camera. disappointing!!
Any of you have any similar hardware issues in # Nothingphone1? pic.twitter.com/2jlsfIFaDB

Simple problem?
Nothing seems to have acknowledged the problem on his Twitter account No supportwithout giving the exact reason. We do not currently know the root of the problem, whether it is hardware or software.
Green color issues on screens are not rare and have already been encountered on other smartphones. Phones with Oled screen sometimes have such issues which have already been corrected in the past via minor updates.
The best solution if the problem persists is to contact the brand for a replacement model. It also appears that one of the affected phones is experiencing a condensation issue on the back panel all over the camera module.

It will be necessary to wait to see if these issues remain contained in a few smartphones or if they are recurring and extend to more models in circulation to start seeing real complexity there. For now, this is still anecdotal.
