Nothing

Following earlier teasers, the Nothing Phone (4b) has officially been revealed with a design that combines elements from Nothing Phone (4a) and Nothing Phone (4a) Pro, but it’s not coming to the US at all.

One of the best values in earbuds is the Nothing Ear (a) and, for Prime Day, a pair is down to just $53, and that might be the single best offer on earbuds during Amazon’s sales holiday.

Nothing just announced that it would be, at least for this year, killing off its bargain CMF Phone due to the increasing cost of components but, somehow, “Nothing Phone (4b)” is about to debut as a more affordable release.

Nothing Ear (3) launched earlier this year as a solid pair of wireless earbuds, but it’s also been hard to beat the budget-focused Nothing Ear (a) from 2024. But, apparently, Nothing is giving it a shot with the first Nothing Ear (3a) details now leaking.

Nothing has officially announced a partnership with Best Buy that will bring Nothing Phone devices as well as the company’s audio products into Best Buy stores in the US, as well as online.

OnePlus has been in a rapid downward spiral over the past few months, with the latest blow being the removal of OnePlus devices from Best Buy stores in favor of Nothing Phones.

Nothing’s Ear (open) earbuds are now available in a blue colorway, and one that’s unique to Nothing’s lineup, for $99.

Nothing’s Ear (open) earbuds are getting a refresh next week, with a new blue colorway dropping on May 11.

Smartphone price hikes have been called “inevitable” amid the ongoing RAM crisis, but many devices have held firm for a while. Now, though, they’re landing, with price hikes having just hit the OnePlus 15 and Nothing Phone (4a) Pro, among others, in India.

Nothing has just launched “Essential Voice,” the latest expansion of the brand’s AI suite, which is a major upgrade to voice-to-text.

Nothing Warp was announced last week and then abruptly removed just hours later. Now, Nothing has revived Warp following some “fine tuning,” but you now need to sideload the app.

As earbuds have become commonplace, over-ear headphones have been a lot less popular and, really, they don’t get much love as they should. Nothing, popular for its earbuds, stepped into the category last year with Nothing Headphone (1) which, for $299, was already a great deal. Now, Nothing Headphone (a) has arrived and, somehow, manages to be an even better value.

Earlier today, Nothing announced a new AirDrop-esque app called Warp that sent files between devices through your Google Drive account. Hours later, it has vanished.

In lieu of AirDrop over Quick Share support, Nothing is today launching “Nothing Warp,” a new app + browser extension that replicates the functionality, but leverages Google Drive to do it.

The budget-focused Nothing Headphone (a) series is now available in its yellow colorway. This limited-edition was advertised prior to release with every other colorway option, but was always going to be part of a special run.

Nothing has really hit its stride with the whole budget smartphone thing, with two generations that really got the fundamentals right without breaking the bank. Throughout the company’s history, though, I’ve always felt like something was missing, and I think they’ve finally found it. The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro is the “something” I’ve been waiting for and, as it turns out, the formula was really quite simple.

Nothing seems ready to expand beyond aesthetically niche phones into AI smart glasses. The company initially rejected the idea, but has since opened up to developing more devices as companies like Google and Samsung plan glasses under the Android XR umbrella.

Speaking at SXSW, Nothing CEO Carl Pei reiterated his thoughts on the future of the smartphone experience, saying that “apps are going to disappear.”

Since its announcement earlier this month, I’ve been pretty excited for the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro’s debut and, after using it as my daily phone for a week, I’m all the more sold by this device.

Nothing OS 4.1 on the Nothing Phone (4a) series is debuting a few key changes to the company’s Android skin including better “Essential Apps” functionality, a new “Relaxation Hub,” lock screen tweaks, and more.
