Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement | NT01 Battery | Original Grade | 4500mAh Capacity | Fitting Labour Included
Swapped by our technicians on Kimathi Street so your Glyph handset lasts through a busy Nairobi day again.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement is available at Mascom International for KSh 3,500, covering a brand new 4500mAh original-grade replacement battery and the labour to fit it. The part carries battery code NT01, the cell matched to the handset Nothing launched in July 2022. Our technicians install it at the Mascom International workshop in Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement price is one figure with fitting included, so there is no extra charge for opening the phone, swapping the cell and closing it back up.
Built for owners who still like their transparent handset but can no longer trust it past lunch, the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement brings back a full working day. Sales teams, journalists, university students and estate agents describe the same problem: the phone drops from half charge to nothing, shuts down during an M-Pesa payment, or runs warm on a short call. After a few years of daily charging, any lithium-ion cell holds less energy than it did at first. A fresh NT01 cell restores the rated capacity, and the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement lets you keep your apps, photos and settings.
Where many Nairobi repair stalls fit unlabelled cells of unknown origin, Mascom International uses original-grade batteries matched to the exact battery code. Customers across Nairobi tell us they return because the price they were quoted is the price they paid. The Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement is done at a walk-in store with a fixed address, so you can speak to the technician and test the phone before you leave. Confirm your model on WhatsApp, back up your data, then bring your handset to Kimathi Street for the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement any day from Monday to Saturday.
Common Questions About the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement
How much is the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement in Kenya?
The Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement costs KSh 3,500 at Mascom International in Nairobi, with fitting labour included. That figure covers the original-grade NT01 battery, the technician's time to open the phone and install it, and a check of charging and power-on before you collect it. A 6-month warranty on the replacement battery comes with the service. No charger is included; compatible chargers are sold separately in store. You can pay at the counter by cash or M-Pesa once the phone is working.
How can I tell my Nothing Phone (1) needs a new battery?
A Nothing Phone (1) needs a new battery when it drains far faster than before or switches off with charge still showing. Other signs include the phone getting hot during light use, charging that stalls or jumps, and back glass or a screen that starts to lift because the cell has swollen. A swollen battery should be replaced promptly, and you should stop charging it overnight. If you are unsure, describe the symptoms on WhatsApp and our technicians will advise before you travel.
Is replacing the battery better than buying a new phone to replace my Nothing Phone (1)?
For most owners, a battery swap on the Nothing Phone (1) costs a small fraction of a new handset and fixes the main complaint. You keep the Snapdragon 778G+ chip, the 6.55-inch OLED screen, the Glyph lights and every app already set up. A new phone makes more sense if you want a faster processor, a newer camera or longer software support. If the screen, charging port and buttons all work, the KSh 3,500 service at Mascom International is the cheaper route back to a full day of use.
Will a fresh battery help my Nothing Phone (1) through KPLC power cuts and long commutes?
A fresh 4500mAh battery gives the Nothing Phone (1) back its full rated capacity, which matters most when KPLC power cuts stop you from charging at home or in the office. Commuters on long matatu rides from Thika, Kitengela or Rongai lean on maps, music and Safaricom data for hours, and a worn cell often fails on those trips. With a new battery, a power bank becomes a backup rather than a daily lifeline. Heavy hotspot sharing still drains any battery faster, so plan charging around it.
Does the Nothing Phone (1) keep wireless and fast charging after the battery swap?
Yes, the Nothing Phone (1) keeps 33W wired charging, 15W wireless charging and 5W reverse wireless charging after the swap, because those speeds are set by the phone's charging circuit. The replacement NT01 cell carries the same 4500mAh rating as the original. For the full 33W wired speed you need a USB Power Delivery charger rated at 33W or higher. Mascom International sells compatible chargers and cables separately, and our staff can test your existing charger at the counter while you wait.
Will my Nothing Phone (1) still be water-resistant after the battery is changed?
You should treat a Nothing Phone (1) as no longer water-resistant to its original rating after any battery change. The phone left the factory rated IP53, meaning protection from dust and light water spray. Opening the back glass disturbs the factory seal, and no repair shop can promise the same protection afterwards. Keep the phone away from heavy rain, spilled drinks and swimming pools. A simple case and a dry inner pocket on rainy boda boda rides go a long way toward protecting it.
What should I do before bringing my Nothing Phone (1) to the Mascom workshop?
Back up your Nothing Phone (1) to your Google account or a computer before you visit, since any repair carries a small risk to stored data. Be ready to unlock the screen so the technician can test the phone after fitting. Take off the case and remove the SIM card. Confirm the exact model on WhatsApp at +254 708 852 521 first, so the NT01 battery is ready when you arrive at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street.
Who should buy the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement and who should skip it?
Buy the Nothing Phone (1) Battery Replacement if your handset works well apart from short battery life, sudden shutdowns or a swollen back. It suits owners who like the phone, want to keep their setup and would rather spend KSh 3,500 than buy a new handset. Skip it if the screen is also cracked or shows lines; ask Mascom International about its screen replacement service first, so both repairs are planned together. Skip it too if you already plan to upgrade within a few weeks.
Technical Specifications
Battery Cell and Capacity
- 4500mAh rated capacity — the same figure listed for the Nothing Phone (1), restoring the charge the phone held when new.
- Battery code NT01 — the part reference for this handset, so the connector, size and shape match exactly.
- Lithium-ion chemistry — the same rechargeable cell type the phone shipped with, storing about 17.42 watt-hours of energy.
- Original-grade replacement battery — built to the original specification, so charge readings and power management behave as expected.
- Brand new cell — no previous charge cycles, unlike batteries pulled from donor phones in some repair shops.
Compatibility and Model Matching
- Fits the Nothing Phone (1) only — the handset announced in July 2022 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ chip.
- Not for the Nothing Phone (2) or Nothing CMF Phone 1 — each uses a different battery with its own code.
- Check Settings, then About phone, to confirm the model name before your visit — it takes under a minute.
- Works with every storage and colour version — the White and Black editions share the same internal battery.
- Software stays as it is — the swap changes hardware only, so your Nothing OS version and apps remain untouched.
Charging Behaviour
- 33W wired charging supported — the phone's own charging circuit sets this speed, and it works the same with the new cell.
- 15W wireless charging — place the phone on a Qi pad at home or at work and it charges without a cable.
- 5W reverse wireless charging — lay compatible earbuds on the back to top them up from the phone when needed.
- USB Type-C 2.0 port — the same connector as before, so your existing cable and car charger keep working.
- No conditioning routine needed — charge and use the phone as normal from the first day after fitting.
Daily Use After the Swap
- Rated capacity restored — the phone can again hold the full charge it was designed for on day one.
- Fewer sudden shutdowns — a healthy cell holds steady voltage, so camera use and gaming stop cutting power.
- Cooler running — a worn battery often runs warm, while a fresh cell tends to stay at normal temperature.
- Fewer power bank top-ups — many owners drop the midday charge they needed with the old battery.
- Screen-on time depends on habits — brightness, 5G data and hotspot sharing all affect how long each charge lasts.
Fitting Service at Our CBD Workshop
- Labour included in KSh 3,500 — one price covers opening the phone, removing the old cell and fitting the new one.
- Done by Mascom technicians — the phone stays at our Kimathi Street workshop rather than being sent elsewhere.
- Old battery set aside for safe disposal — swollen or damaged cells are handled with care during removal.
- Back glass resealed — the phone is closed with fresh adhesive so the back sits flat again.
- Tested before handover — the technician checks power-on, charging and the battery reading before you collect it.
Safety and Quality Checks
- Swelling check on arrival — the technician inspects the old cell and the frame before any work starts.
- Charging test — the phone is connected to a charger to confirm it takes current normally after fitting.
- Water resistance reduced — the original IP53 rating can no longer be relied on once the phone has been opened.
- 6-month warranty — covers manufacturing defects in the replacement battery under normal use.
- Honest diagnosis — if the fault turns out not to be the battery, our technicians tell you before charging you.
