A week before Nothing Phone (2) launch, CEO Carl Pei hints at Apple-like features, DSLR-quality pics

Consumer electronic brand Nothing may come with an Apple-like ecosystem in the future.

A week ahead of the Phone (2) launch, CEO and founder Carl Pei took to Twitter to hint at the Nothing-to-Nothing ecosystem that will help users of the smartphone connect better.

The tech boss said that the London-based company is thinking of developing features that only work between Nothing users.



Pei also urged his nearly 585K followers on the microblogging platform to share a list of features they would like to see in Nothing phones. While some hoped to get an AirDrop-like feature, others suggested features like screen and audio sharing, live drawing and collaborative note abilities.

Later, he also shared mind-blowing pictures clicked using the upcoming Phone (2) on beta software.


Last month, Pei teased the all-new transparent design of the new Type-C USB cable for the upcoming Phone (2).


Last week, Nothing started pre-booking of the new Phone (2) on Flipkart with a refundable Rs 2,000 deposit.

The electronic brand is all set to launch its next flagship smartphone, Phone (2), in India on July 11 at 8:30 pm.

Known for its iconic designs, the Phone (2) will come with a premium-tier powerhouse Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, featuring an 18-bit Image Signal Processor (ISP) capable of capturing over 4,000 times more camera data than the ISP used on the Phone (1).

Earlier this month, the company announced that the new smartphone will be manufactured in India for consumers in the country and will be one of the most sustainable smartphones in the market.

With a focus on recycled and plastic-free packaging experience, renewable energy and product lifespan, the smartphone will boast an SGS_SA (a Swiss multinational firm which provides inspection, verification, testing and certification services), a certified carbon footprint of 53.45 kg, over 5 kg lower than Phone (1).

Meanwhile, the technology brand recently announced a $96 million fundraising round led by Highland Europe, with participation from existing investors GV (Google Ventures), EQT Ventures and C Capital, along with house music supergroup Swedish House Mafia.

With this round, Nothing's total funding has reached $250 million, as the company also crossed selling 1.5 million products.

Nothing has more than 450 people working across seven offices worldwide.
