Nothing

Alongside its latest funding round, Nothing’s Carl Pei is laying out a vision for the future of the company which, ambitiously, includes creating a new operating system for smartphones and beyond.

Ahead of their launch later this month, Nothing Ear (3) are being shown off in yet another teaser that reveals an updated case with a “talk” button.

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.

It’s been a busy 2025 for Nothing, having launched a trio of smartphones alongside the brand’s first-ever over-the-ear headphones, but that doesn’t mean the rest of the year is quieting down.

Nothing has just confirmed that it will soon be launching Nothing Ear (3), its fourth-generation earbuds, are launching “soon.”

Nothing’s made a pretty sizeable splash this year with the launch of three smartphones — including its first-ever flagship-adjacent device — but it hasn’t been without controversy. Following a controversial video comparison earlier this year between the Phone (3a) and iPhone 16 Pro Max, Nothing’s been caught using professionally-sourced stock imagery on in-store demo units of the Phone (3).

Nothing has just announced its first Android 16 beta, with Phone (3) users able to test out Nothing OS 4.0 ahead of its release starting in the next couple of weeks.

Available starting today, Nothing is releasing its latest affordable smartwatch in the $99 CMF Watch 3 Pro. It has a few key upgrades, but obviously trades the functionality of Wear OS for its much more affordable price point.

Nothing has just announced new updates to Essential Space, its AI-powered hub, which includes support for Google Calendar as well as updates to the new “Flip to Record” feature on Phone (3).

Nothing Headphone (1) bucks a lot of trends in the audio space in terms of design, standing out on its own as unique. In a slight twist, though, Nothing turns out to have made a second Headphone (1) case that’s pretty familiar, because it’s just like the one from AirPods Max.

The Nothing Phone (3) might pack its fair share of controversial design decisions, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a sturdy piece of tech.

Silicon-carbon batteries have made it possible for recent smartphones to launch with huge batteries, but many have been wondering why the tech hasn’t made its way to more smartphones, such as Samsung’s Galaxy lineup, Google Pixel devices, the iPhone, and others, and there are two key reasons for this.

If you’re interested in Nothing Phone (3), a solid offer on Amazon pairs the device with the brand’s Headphone (1) release at a big discount, right as Nothing’s entire audio lineup is on sale.

The Nothing Phone (3) is a device that was always going to come with mixed reactions. But after spending a week with it, I’m a pretty big fan. Why? Because, regardless of what the marketing says, it gets the fundamentals absolutely right,

Nothing’s new Phone (3) is the company’s self-described first “true flagship,” a designation that, personally, I think is a mistake. But it also brings up the question, if the Nothing Phone (3) isn’t a “true flagship,” is Google’s Pixel?

Nothing mostly gets eyes for its smartphones at this point, but it’s audio that put this brand on the map. Over time, Nothing has built up a reputation for delivering excellent value in its audio products and rock solid sound quality at the same time. The Nothing Ear series blew away my expectations last year, so I was thrilled to hear the company was working on a pair of over-ear headphones. After hours of listening, though, I have mixed feelings about Nothing Headphone (1), as they don’t quite deliver the same charm as the earbuds.

The Nothing Phone (3) isn’t the company’s first real foray into the US — that’d be 2023’s $600 Nothing Phone (2) — but it does feel like it’s the first time the brand is taking this market seriously. I’m not sure it’s the right device.

Nothing has confirmed that its Android 16 update, Nothing OS 4.0, will be available before the end of September.

The Nothing Phone (3) is, undoubtedly, the best phone the company has put out to date, but despite the messaging that this is a “true flagship,” it’s not. That said, I think I like this new chapter for the Nothing Phone.
