They killed their niche when they started locking their bootliaders and started adding more bloat to their android flavor. Anyone who cares about that has moved on to the pixel or other phones.
And instead they're being replaced by a company that adds ads to their shit. End of an era indeed.
I've never really seen Nothing as a replacement to what OnePlus was. They feel like a phone that tries to push for catchiness and customization within what is provided.
The Pixel feels like more of a replacement with stock Android and the variety of customs Roms that run on their devices.
Dang, switched from Motorola to OnePlus for my current phone and it looks like I'll have to switch again. Is Nothing phone the new hotness? I just want something with a good battery, a 9mm headphone jack and decent customizability
Do... do you mean a 3.5mm jack, or are you using your phone as a gun?
I'm gonna pretend that wasn't a brain fart and leave that up to your imagination
It's where you plug your gun in to power it.
You know,that hole is a little turbine. Just fire a blank cartridge in it to make it spin and charge the battery. There’s also a variant that supports a live round, but its efficiency is way lower and there’s a decent chance you’ll need a new phone afterwards…
9mm is the only metric a Texan needs in his life
I use Glock headphones
I've had a Nothing Phone2 for about 2 years and still treating me well. The new 4aPro looks sick but I'm gonna go with something like a sidephone or Clicks Communicator next since this Phone2 is lasting fine still.
I'm hoping the new Motorola graphene Collab will produce a phone thatchecks my boxes
Replaced by nothing? That's terrible.
I used to want to try a OnePlus. I bought two in a row from BestBuy that ended up not actually existing.
I hadn't heard of the Nothing phone before so this title definitely had me wondering if the N was capitalized on accident in the title.
