The London-based company known as Nothing once again has an ace up its sleeve due to the arrival of the 1.5.5 update of the Nothing OS. Guess what? Whether we like it or not, the world of smartphones doesn’t end with Android and iOS.

The Face Unlock feature has slowly but surely become a standard for smartphones nowadays. In other words, the feature allows the user to unlock his phone by simply pointing his face toward it. Why would you spend time memorizing a PIN number or unique pattern when you can simply unlock your smartphone by using your face? There you have another reason why front cameras can be extremely useful for a phone unless you’re not a conspiracy theorist.

Face Unlock is one of the features that the upcoming Nothing OS update will grant for those who run the software on the Nothing Phone 1. But the good news is far from over, as the new update also comes along with the updated Android security patch. This is extremely useful in case you’re one of those who are constantly worried about navigating online unprotected. The latest security patches usually bring the top enhancements and protection against cyber threats.

The new Nothing OS 1.5.5 update will also grant higher speed for app opening. This will be possible due to the dynamic use of RAM capacity.

The guys behind the new update also came to the conclusion that the Bluetooth function consumes too much power. Therefore, the upcoming Nothing OS update reduces the power consumption caused by Bluetooth features.

Nothing Phone (1) was released a year ago, and it stands out for a few powerful features. We can mention, for instance, the 8 to 12GB of RAM, the Snapdragon 778G+5G chipset, the 6.55 inches OLED display, and more.
