Much to our chagrin, Carl Pei didn’t reveal the highly anticipated Nothing phone (1) at the March 23rd event, but he used the keynote to make the company’s vision clear – Nothing isn’t merely an Audio Company.

Until today, when Nothing announced the Nothing phone (1), a handset that will be powered by the latest Snapdragon chipset and will run on a minimalist Nothing OS when it is released in the summer.

Ever since he left OnePlus and created Nothing, it has been thought that Carl Pei would turn his hand to smartphones again, and it could be that 2022 is the year that it will happen if his teasing tweet (and Qualcomm and Android’s replies) is anything to go by.

Nothing’s founder Carl Pei knows how to create a buzz around the products that he builds. To a certain extent, the success of OnePlus can be attributed to its ex-cofounder who started Nothing after parting ways with the Chinese smartphone maker. His latest Twitter post can be seen as...

Carl Pei, the co-founder of OnePlus, left the company to start a new venture named Nothing in 2020. The company introduced the Nothing Ear (1) as its first product, but Pei has been missing from the Android smartphone scene for quite some time. Now, it looks like Nothing may eventually launch its first phone soon.
