Carl Pei: Nothing Phone (1) will get a beta version of Android 13 in late 2022

The other day it was reported online that Nothing is not planning to update its first smartphone to Android 13 this year. Now the founder of the brand, Carl Pei, has given more details about the update.

Here's What We Know

So, according to Pei, developers will release a beta version of Android 13 for Nothing Phone (1) by the end of the year. As for the stable release, we should expect it in early 2023. By the way, Pei also added that the company has already released three updates for the new product with improvements and bug fixes since the release of the smartphone.

While we are working around the clock, we won't rush on updates at the expense of user experience. This also applies to Nothing OS based on Android 13 where we aim to ship a beta version by the end of the year, with a full release in early 2023.
