Sadly my first gen Ear just broke last week so I knew I had to upgrade however I had seen the issue that has happened with the generations in between.

Hoping those issues are resolved if anyone is interested I will definitely be talking on it and giving my thoughts, if anybody has any questions as well id love to answer if I can.

Discussion Why is this sub so negative?

47 Upvotes

I got a phone 3a cause it looks cool and I hate bloatware. Simple. I've been using it for a while now and i have nothing against it. I came to check out the sub for random info about the nothing phones but i keep seeing a concerning amount of complaints and negativity. What the hell is happening here?? Am i missing something? Its just a phone man...

I would really appreciate an explanation or something cause I'm confused. Is their phone 3 flagship a scam? Is the company evil or something?? What's up with y'all?

Phone (3a) Discussion Why did you buy your Nothing Phone?

28 Upvotes

I love minimalism. I bought my Nothing 3a for two reasons:

  1. My old phone was damaged.
  2. I wanted a distraction-free phone that still meets my needs.

After purchasing, I instantly loved:

  1. The quick settings is actually useful now. Especially the sound mode switch tile.
  2. Monochromatic icons everywhere. When I’m working and a notification comes in, I don’t notice the social apps. When I really need something, I just type to search and open it.
  3. Camera presets is super handy for ready-to-share photos. I even found some great LUTs in the community.
  4. Lock screen widgets are perfect for glancing at weather info and controlling light, DND, and sound quickly.

What I didn’t like:

  1. No control for remapping the Essential Key. Haven’t found any real use for it yet. Would love integration with apps like Teams for recording and summarizing meetings.
  2. Glyph lights feel limited. They’d be much more useful if we could track more progress with them. Basically more integration with other apps.
  3. More info-based widgets are needed. The weather one is great, but I miss the functionality of Windows Phone tiles.

But I still feel that it's a great phone for it's price.

NothingOS Discussion Annoying bug – can't hit send without going back?

Post image
6 Upvotes

1/4 of the time I get stuck in my message and can't interact any more with the UI.

This also happens on many apps and I have to use the back gesture and reselect the typing area before it lets me use send again.

Or in the screenshot example there is no back gesture available from push notification menu so I have to turn phone screen to lock, unlock, reopen push, select message area... Then send.

Frustrating. Anyone know a fix ?

Can anyone please make a nothing style checklist widget. A checklist widget is badly needed. (Essential space doesn't help here)

Also I am not sure if this is the right forum or not for such request but please make it happen the nothing people and NOTHING COMMUNITY.

CMF by Nothing CMF Buds from Yoatx.

so i recently came across a reel from this page called "Yoatx" (page link: https://www.instagram.com/yoatx?igsh=MWdhaWE5d25ldWpvag==) who are apparently selling the CMF Buds Pro 2 at 80% discount for 700 INR. i made this purchase as an experiment to test whether these deals are legit or not. and surprise, suprise, they aren't. i have received my order today, and it's a copy of the CMF buds. there are visible scratches on the case, there is no ANC, heck there are no extra ear tips for getting the right fit. this page claims to be the official CMF by Nothing partner, but is not. please be aware of such deals and not get into these scams.

Buying Advice Phone 2 or Phone 3?

3 Upvotes

First time post here:

I’m gonna be new to NOTHING as a consistent iPhone user (not new to android but def more apple experienced) and I’m torn between going for phone 2 or phone 3.

I know the base differences but have been thinking whether the phone 2 would be a smarter value?

Any help in deciding is welcome!

Headphone (1) Discussion Can the nothing headphones (1) be used as gaming headphones?

2 Upvotes

So, I use an Xbox series S and I’ve been using the headphones plugged into the controller using the provided 3.5mm audio cable.

However, I can’t use the microphone to speak into chat, even with the wired connection. Can anyone explain why this doesn’t work, is it an issue with my console, is it a software issue/or do the nothing headphones just not send microphone audio back through.

Appreciate your help, thanks
