A consumer-electronics startup called Nothing has secured financing of more than $200 million to launch its debut smartphone, in the first attempt for several years by a newcomer to crack a market dominated by Apple and Samsung.

Nothing will unveil the design of its first smartphone, called Phone (1) on Wednesday, before it goes on general sale this summer. The device has a transparent back, revealing electronics components such as a wireless charging coil that are normally hidden, and runs on the Android operating system.
