As spotted by XDA-Developers, Nothing is starting to release its first major OS upgrade for its very first mobile device: Phone 1. Remember the phone that goes blink blink blink? That one. Its Android 13 skin, Nothing OS 1.5, has been in beta testing since late 2022.

There are other expected Android 13 updates included, including a QR code scanner in the quick settings menu and privacy updates for the photo picker.
