As per aReddit thread, some users have started getting the stable Nothing OS 1.5.2 update based on Android 13. There’s nothing official from Nothing yet so this could mean that it’s a limited rollout for now (meant for open beta users) and should reach more users eventually.

Standby power consumption has been improved by 50% and even Carl Pei tweeted about the same improvements recently.Battery life on my Phone (1) has gotten so good on 1.5, kudos to our software team! 🏆— Carl Pei (@getpeid)February 14, 2023
