\n

CMF has officially started rolling out Nothing OS 4.0 to its smartphone lineup, marking a major software upgrade for both the CMF Phone 1 and the newer CMF Phone 2 Pro. The update is being released in phases, with Phone 1 users receiving it first, followed by the Phone 2 Pro in early January.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A refined interface<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Built on Android 16, Nothing OS 4.0 focuses heavily on refinement rather than reinvention. The update introduces a cleaner and more balanced interface, with refreshed system icons, redesigned status indicators and a simplified Quick Settings layout. These changes aim to make everyday interactions feel calmer, clearer and more intuitive.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Darker and smarter mode<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of the standout additions is the enhanced<\/span> Extra Dark Mode<\/span><\/a>. This refined version deepens blacks, improves contrast and reduces power consumption, while also improving readability across notifications, Quick Settings and the app drawer. Support has also been extended to first-party apps such as Essential Space.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Customisation with widgets and layouts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nothing OS 4.0 expands customisation options with new widget sizes, including 1\u00d71 and 2\u00d71 formats for apps like Weather,<\/span> Pedometer and Screen Time<\/span><\/a>. These additions give users more freedom to design compact, information-rich home screens.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Smarter multitasking<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Multitasking sees a notable upgrade with improved pop-up view functionality. Users can now run and switch between two floating apps more fluidly using simple swipe gestures. Meanwhile, a new hidden apps feature allows users to keep selected apps out of the <\/span>app drawer<\/span><\/a> while still maintaining quick access when needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Smoother animations and enhanced feedback<\/strong><\/h2>\n

System animations have been refined throughout the interface, delivering smoother transitions, more responsive gestures and a greater sense of depth. App opening and closing animations now include subtle background scaling, helping create a more connected visual flow. Haptic feedback has also been enhanced, with gentle vibrations at minimum and maximum volume levels for better tactile awareness.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Android 16 upgrade for CMF devices<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Beyond visual and functional improvements, Nothing OS 4.0 also marks a major Android version upgrade, moving CMF devices from Android 15 to Android 16. This brings the latest security updates, performance optimisations and platform-level enhancements.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Rollout timeline<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The update is being released in stages. CMF Phone 1 users are the first to receive Nothing OS 4.0, while the CMF Phone 2 Pro is scheduled to follow in early January. Users can expect the update to arrive automatically via OTA over the coming days.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
