Gadget maker Nothing is shaking things up with the CMF Phone 1, a super-budget 5G phone priced at just US$199 (around CA$272). Starting July 12, it aims to be "the best phone everyone can afford" under Nothing's new CMF brand.

The phone's standout feature is its unique design. Inspired by Lamborghini, it boasts a matte finish with exposed screwheads for a removable back cover. This lets you swap colours or potentially even replace the battery (though that detail isn't confirmed or maybe it'll come to a different device).
