A phone that costs under Rs 30,000 and still has a transparent back, a light show on the rear panel, and a 6,000mAh battery sounds like a wish list, not a spec sheet. Nothing has turned that wish list into a real product, and starting today, you can actually buy it.

The Nothing Phone (4b) is the first device in Nothing’s brand new B Series, a fresh tier built specifically to bring the company’s transparent design language and Glyph Interface to buyers who found the A Series still a bit too expensive. It officially goes on sale on July 14, 2026, and it undercuts its own lineup while keeping most of what makes a Nothing phone feel like a Nothing phone.

Here is everything you need to know before you decide whether this is the one to buy.

Nothing Phone (4b) Price in India

The Phone (4b) comes in two storage configurations, and both get a meaningful price cut at checkout thanks to an instant bank discount and an exchange bonus.

VariantList PriceEffective Price (with bank offer)
8GB + 128GBRs 34,999Rs 29,999
8GB + 256GBRs 38,699Rs 33,699

The effective price applies a 7.5 percent instant bank discount along with an exchange bonus for anyone trading in an old phone. If you are not eligible for either, expect to pay closer to the full list price.

Where to Buy the Nothing Phone (4b)

This launch is Flipkart exclusive. The Phone (4b) is not listed on other major online marketplaces at this time, so Flipkart is the only online destination carrying it. You can also walk into Croma, Reliance Digital or Vijay Sales if you would rather see the phone in person before buying.

The phone is available in three colours: Black, White and Blue.

What Makes the Phone (4b) Different

Nothing built the B Series to sit one notch below the A Series, using a naming system where numbers indicate the generation and letters indicate the segment. In practice, that means the Phone (4b) keeps the design identity of a Nothing phone while trimming a few things to hit a lower price.

Here is the core spec sheet:

FeatureNothing Phone (4b)
ProcessorSnapdragon 6 Gen 4
Display6.77-inch 120Hz Super AMOLED, up to 2,000 nits peak brightness
Battery6,000mAh, Nothing’s largest ever
Rear Camera50MP OIS main sensor with TrueLens Engine 4
SoftwareNothing OS 4.1, based on Android 16
Security UpdatesUp to 6 years
ColoursBlack, White, Blue
RAM + Storage8GB + 128GB or 8GB + 256GB

A few of these terms are worth explaining if you are new to shopping for phones by spec sheet:

AMOLED display refers to the screen technology. Each pixel lights up on its own, which gives you deeper blacks and richer colour compared to older LCD panels, and it also helps save battery when showing dark content.

OIS, short for Optical Image Stabilisation, physically steadies the camera lens while you shoot. It is the reason your photos and videos come out sharper when your hand is not perfectly still, which is most of the time.

Nits measure how bright a screen can get. A higher nits figure, like the 2,000 nits peak brightness here, means the display stays readable even under harsh sunlight, which matters a lot for outdoor use in India.

Glyph Interface is Nothing’s signature feature: a set of LED lights built into the back of the phone that can flash for calls, notifications, timers and more, even when the phone is lying face down on a table.

Battery Life Is the Real Upgrade

At 6,000mAh, this is the biggest battery Nothing has ever put in a phone. Combined with the efficiency of the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset, it is built to comfortably last a full day of typical use, including calls, social media, video streaming and camera use, without needing a top-up before evening.

Software and Long-Term Support

The Phone (4b) ships with Nothing OS 4.1, layered on top of Android 16. Nothing has also bundled in its Essential AI tools, the same suite it has been rolling out across the rest of its 2026 lineup. The promise of up to six years of security updates is a genuinely strong number at this price point, and it means the phone should stay safe to use well beyond the typical two to three year window that budget phones usually get.

Should You Buy the Nothing Phone (4b)?

If you like the transparent design and Glyph lighting but have never wanted to pay A Series prices to get it, the Phone (4b) is built exactly for you. At an effective Rs 29,999, you are getting a large battery, a bright 120Hz AMOLED screen and six years of security support, which is a combination most budget phones in this range do not offer together.

Where it will not win is the camera department. A single 50MP OIS sensor is competent but not the biggest strength here, especially compared to phones in the same price band that pack a dedicated zoom lens. If photography is your main priority, it is worth comparing this against the Nothing Phone (4a), which still offers a periscope camera for a bit more money.

For everyone else who wants a phone that looks and feels different from the usual glass slab, without spending premium money to get there, the Phone (4b) is one of the easiest recommendations in its price bracket right now.
