As first hinted at earlier this year, Nothing says its Android 16 update is coming soon, with Nothing OS 4.0 offering a “redefined” take on the skin.
Nothing’s skin on top of Android, Nothing OS, is a fairly clean cover-up, but with some added style and features to fit in with Nothing’s design language. It’s evolved with time, with the Android 15-based Nothing OS 3.0 providing a more refined look and some functional tweaks to the lock screen and Quick Settings.
Now, Nothing is teasing the arrival of its Android 16 update, Nothing OS 4.0.
This update was first teased in July alongside the launch of Phone (3), with a promise it would arrive before the end of September. An initial beta was released a few weeks ago, but without any major changes. Those are apparently coming, though, as hinted at by this week’s new teaser.
In a brief video, Nothing says that Nothing OS 4.0 is “coming soon” with a “refined” and “redefined” experience. That seems to largely consist of updated design elements, with the video showing a new font as well as various icon updates. It’s unclear if Material 3 Expressive will play any role, but it does seem like we’re getting a fresh coat of paint.
