Our take
Nothing wants to inspire people to believe in the positive potential of technology again. It aims to do this through its consumer technology platform, seeking to bring artistry, passion and trust back into the sector.
The company was co-founded by Carl Pei, who previously co-founded OnePlus, a mobile tech company that operates in more than 30 countries worldwide. Since its 2021 Series A with the backing of Alphabets' VC arm, Nothing has launched a series of products including the Nothing Phone (1), a mid-range but aesthetically exciting android-powered device, along with earphones and, interestingly, a craft beer.
Nothing has successfully delivered a flagship product that has held its own in a fiercely competitive market populated with the likes of Apple, Samsung, and Google, along with mid-range rivals Honor and OnePlus. The company launched a follow-up device called Nothing Ear in 2024, a wireless headphone with Chat GPT integrations. If this is as well received as its predecessor then Nothing could grow into a household name.
