Man, Nothing really fell off . And dœs 3a Lite need to exist like at all ⁉️
Nothing could have been Something.
Bruh. This is truly surprising. I feel like for a phone like this, it must be like 90% of the target market that would hate this? Seems like an unimaginably bad business decision. Of course, if FB gave them enough money, then this is kinda like taking a bribe to stop competing.
They are pivoting to a new customer base, people who are vaguely aware privacy is a concern but aren’t capable of figuring out nothing phones are a scam.
FUCK THAT
So it is oficially a shitphone.
Wow they’ve fallen hard in the last 24 hours
You were supposed to be the fucking CHOSEN ONE
Don’t stake your hopes on anyone or any entity and you will never be disappointed
There are only those companies for whom the incentives to betray you aren’t yet high enough. Either the incentives become high enough for the chosen company to betray you, or the incentives become enough for another company with enough money to buy the chosen company and betray you…or bury the chosen company in the hopes that you’ll open yourself to being betrayed or exploited by the other company.
Welcome to unfettered/unregulated capitalism aka the natural end result that capitalism pushes society towards.
Nothing already lost me when they put a tiny, useless OLED screen on the back of their flagship and called it innovation. They had something really great with the Glyph lights for two generations, so of course they ditched that technology completely.
Not even Unihertz put Facebook garbage on their new Titan 2 phone. And they also have an OLED on the back. A much bigger one. For a fraction of the price.
Oh good, one less phone to consider.
I would literally sooner intentionally install malware in my phone than anything from Meta.
Wow, nothing is a shit name, for one. On the other hand, this being reported on a website that requires tracking consent to view. I want a new Timeline.
Nothing would be a great brand name if they were dedicated to making good phones without any bloatware.
The misinterpretation with the name nothing to the regular word nothing in headlines and everything is really bad, especially since the internet is global and for countries who never heard the name.
Some people think they’re really clever with their company name and cause lots of confusion with it for their narrow mindedness.
What do you mean? There are tons of shit names.
Of course there are. But in this case the headline could be read:
Nothing’s new:…
I think you missed it. “Nothing is a shit name” can be read as “there are no shit names.”
(Unless I misread your comment and missed something.)
Yes, got wooshed, haha 😁
Wait they are monetizing this hard so soon? They barely launched the brand
Shareholder pressure? Asshole CEO that masked who he was so far? Who can say. Seems to be the general trend now though.
Thanks for Nothing!
Good ass burn.
Forgot the hyphen
This is a major bummer. I was kinda rooting for them to be the OEM that GOS would be working with.
LMAO, lol even. Nothing 3 had shit hardware for the price, I was hoping it wouldn’t be them.
Oh? TIL. I guess if they’ve ruled out fairphone and nothing is as bad as you say, maybe it’s a larger player. Can’t think of many other small ones.
Moto seems like a contender. Or one of the Chinese players like Oneplus or Xiaomi, they are also looking for an edge over the market.
Personally I think it’ll be one of the bigger Chinese OEMs. Their phones have gotten a lot better recently, and security is pretty much the only thing they’re lacking. A move like this would perfectly fit some of their strategies.
We’ll see what happens. I’m enjoying analyzing the market to speculate which company it may be.
Before reading this, it would have never occurred to me that anyone even considered this possibility. And thank God it’s not happening. Their phones are abysmal dogshit.

Looks like nothing I want to waste money on.
Welp, and some people hypothesized Nothing would be the secret manufacturer that GrapheneOS works with. Hope not, I’m not sure what Nothing would get out of it with these kinds of actions.
I still think it’s Motorola.
I’d like that. I’ve enjoyed being on Motorola for the last few phones. Good, serviceable, middle-of-the-road priced phones and a company that doesn’t think so highly of themselves that the majority of the price amounts to a prestige tax. (ahem…Apple and Samsung)
Isn’t Motorola’s mobile division (with the exception of the PDA hardware acquired by Zebra Technologies) owned by Lenovo full stop?
I would imagine that might lead to issues later down the line for the Graphene team (although I’d love to be proven wrong).
I’m not sure what problems that would lead to. Lenovo is a big part of the reason I think it’s Motorola.
Yes it is. If you mean that becaise of china, I don’t know why it would. Blossoming countries tend to open up. China is starting to blossom.
