Debrand should give their skin a slogan: "Something is better than Nothing"
Don't read my name!!!!
Nothing is also something...
They actually did this. Just click on the question mark while selecting the skin.
Nice haha 😆
@@dontreadmyprofilepicture960 How do you read a picture?
Honestly it feels like they've got their priorities straight. Not very interested in a midrange phone but I sincerely hope they become successful enough to get big enough to take on the flagship models.
Thay haven't. It costs 500€, 545€ with a charger.
Overall worse than the equally priced Pixel 6.
It's priced a lot more than the 6a.
The only thing they did right (and damn they did right) is design. Everything else is overpriced.
@@Anankin12 Who buys Pixels anymore though they had the same camera for several models, that’s not innovation that’s just fraud lol
I don’t know since when he became an iphone manic. “Not like an iphone” & “not better than iphone”
@@milanthomas6842 I mean tbf, the company literally sells itself as the alternate and cheaper iPhone so the comparison in this video is apt.
@@Anankin12 in less money than this phone you can get phones with SD870. No matter how much you refine software pure horsepower can outdone it. Pointless if a "killer" phone doesn't even have specs.
😃 I like the style of the review even more than the item reviewed! 👍🏼
I always loved the design of the iPhone 5. Its curved but flat edges and the matte backside was always very appealing to me. But when I bought my first iPhone it was the iPhone 6 with its curved edges, which most of all the other companies followed afterwards. I couldn't find a phone I would have really liked. Therefore I am so glad and thankful that Apple re-introduced the design with its 12 series, so that other brands can now follow.
I will see how my money situation unfolds and will probably get either the Nothing Phone or the iPhone 13. I won't miss out on this beautiful design this time around.
It's iphone 5s black ❤❤
I really respect their effort for software optimization, as an all time android user I think it's one of the most important things apple does, that more android manufacturers should do.
Don't read my name!!!!!
@@dontreadmyprofilepicture960 kk
Agreed
Yeah
@Don't Read My Profile Photo Don’t read your name? Ok.
Software optimization, reasonable pricing, looks like dear old Carl Pei's carrying on the OnePlus spirit at another company.
I kinda like the LEDs, they're just aesthetic fun, yet can be useful if you face down the phone often.
Flip side is that when one plus was released it was a flag ship killer, giving you the best specs for a fraction of the price. This on the other hand is higher priced android phone with just some gimmicks to show for the higher pricing.
399 euros for a Snapdragon 778G+ is too much

I think the back lights can be applied to business or 'covert'/privacy type of situations. For example; having you onky know who's calling by the back lights, as opposed to people around you might save an awkward moment. Or knowing if it's a call, text, or email when you're working, might help with eliminating having to check your phone too often when you're in a meeting or having to attend to something and want to know, but don't want to answer everything that comes in 🤔🤷😂 that's the first thing that came to mind when mentioned about the gimmick of the back lights, otherwise; those are pretty specific scenarios and even I am not in them that often. Although, idk like the design myself. I have an s21 ultra though, and wouldve got the nothing phone if I had known about sooner maybe before I got my phone 🤷
I bought one about a month ago, black/256gb. Switching from my OnePlus 5T I've used since 2018. So far, I have no problems with it. I'm also liking all the attention I'm getting from coworkers and friends when the glyph lights do its thing. When they hold it, they always think that it's an iPhone. Now I always put my phone backside up since that's where all the jam is. For more intensive use like gaming, I use my Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra with a bigger screen, faster processor and bigger battery. So it's a great dynamic.
This is actually really interesting. From the nothing ear buds and now a phone. The led is pretty flashy but kinda cool too.

@@jasonvorhees6592 same😜
I think this company is going to be a giant eventually. They have some smart people over there.
like the Essential phone?
They are smart at nothing 🤣
the CEO was the creator off Oneplus so yeah, very smart.
i think i am little late but, i gotta appreiciate you. u speak so flawless and make points which make sense soo much such that when u were starting the sponsor of something, like if u didnt put sponsered message, most of them would have thought that u were genuinely speaking. man u got skills..
I thought that back detail was for sure going to be some custom thing but... to have that rolled out in production is so damn cool. Really nice industrial design right there!
Makers Muse, nice
how was mark rober's secret lab? saw you took a chance to hit the bullseye.😁
As for now, it doesn't sell me yet besides the aesthetic and the no chin display. But I'm so interested to see where this company is going years later cus I have a feeling they can do more than this in the future with more refined phone and everything.
Phone market is so competitive that they have to pull a lot of investment to be able to survive until they pull something that gathers the mainstream attention.
Well they started by copying iphone, so not a good start
After a few years they will just become another oneplus
@@graywolf2694 many would disagree.. Many love iphone-esque aesthetics but not the lockdown os and ecosystem, so they do have a market.
@@graywolf2694 That's a good start, what do you mean? They have a focus and a pathway
I understand it's kind of a price stretch, but you should do an Asus Zenbook Pro Duo review. I'm debating the purchase for my work. I'm an animator, so it would work. I also just love your format, it helps in my purchases a lot!

8:42 Is Nothing a threat to Apple?
Arun - No, not really.
Nothing - Emotional damage. 😂
Lol "Nothing a threat to apple"
For me, they started with a great option, these specs are really good for most users nowadays who just want a smooth experience and average cameras to use, if they manage to keep increasing the stocks and mainly optimizing the user experience they might become very popular in the next few years.
I totally agree with you
this phone is actually good camparing its software 2 other midrange phones (which have dowgraded versions its flagship) and if they can manage production they might make it big in asia and africa where budget phones are far more popular
It should be 100$ cheaper for what it offers
Yeahh, but the price though. Should be at least 100-150 Dollars cheaper.
Overpriced...it's double price of a very very good Samsung or oppo or diomi phone...double price...let that sink in
I hope they will do a nothing phone pro or something, they really capture that iphone feel for an Android phone
In one year Nothing has come a long way. I got mine 5 months ago, it was updated a few times and it works flawlessly now. Its fast, snappy, immense smooth and VERY reliable. Build quality is top notch and I like the design. The glymph I dont use much.
My brother in law was trying my Nothing and he was so impressed he ordered one. He sold his Iphone 😊
I have been thinking to switch from iphone to nothing phone, do you think its worth it?
I think this could work in western markets but in Asian markets it got no chance beating Samsung or Xiomi. Feels like a cool toy compared to big phone companies.
@cheese apple is really popular here in asian countries too. here you would see only apple or samsung phones mostly just like western market. what's different is newer brands will have a lot harder time in asia than the west
@cheese I mean once you buy an apple product they want you to use everything only from them, then they can scam you easier
iPhone is best
Nah the western market is already overtaken by apple & Samsung. They've got no chance
@cheese lol apple is popular everywhere
Seriously feeling happy what Arun is wearing 7:55
It's like the proverbial glass half-full or glass half-empty concept here. You either think it's too expensive for the specs or cheaper than an iphone but with quality, optimization and updates that come really close to the iPhone. Me, I'm totally fine with this phone if I were out on the market for a new one.
This is 🗑… look up more reviews before you buy one…
@@user-ss6oh7vb2i the only trash part i could find so far are issues that have been mostly fixed by now .... like the display having dead pixels apparently randomly for some reason or a weird green line in the middle straight through ... the latest manufactured models shouldn't have this issue anymore and besides that the phone does offer a somewhat innovative and solid performance
Bro moves like he is a Sim (from sims)
@@user-ss6oh7vb2iall the reviews degrading the value of Nothing. Coming from a Nothing Phone User. Comparing a phone which is almost twice or thrice the phone is ridiculous.

What are sound and system/app security sounding and looking like? What devices over past 2 years would you consider to rate best in class in these areas? And love your videos!! Been a fan for a while and still look to you for honest and data driven reviews. Well done Sir.
This video really helped me. Thank you very much!
I really dig the design of this phone! It's great that Nothing didn't focus solely on raw processing power of the phone, yet managed to make something what feels premium without draining your budget! I'm looking for a new phone and boy, do I think about getting this one. It's a shame that in Poland it will be probably hard to get...
same here but indonesia
lol coincidentally our flag color just reversed
Yeah, it's true!
@@CaliGainz no servicing available too
Problem with android is its ok too used 1-2 year but after that? Lagging and sloww
Same in Serbia :(
From a comparative perspective this phone obviously offers well I have to say it, Nothing. BUT from a startup standpoint, this is an amazing start, I am more excited for future phones than I am for the current.
But, there will not be any future phones if this doesn't sell..
Offers a ton. For the price. A ton.
@@MaxxPrime-hm2tv Compared to offers from other companies? Not a lot.
@@ILFforever I love good design. For some that's a lot.
I hate the chins in Android land so..
That alone sold this baby for me. 🤤
And you won't be getting a folded display on a 400£ phone in android land. Or anywhere else for that matter. So.. Kudos.
Plus it has the basics covered for the price.
On top of the Flagship RAM and Storage. (Not midrange) 120Hz punchy high res display.. I'll take this beauty over the competition anyday.
I'd only be missing a more power hungry processor I'd never really get to use anyway.
as most modern processors are overkill for the average user as they've gotten that good.
Unless you're a competitive gamer then you won't be looking at a 400£ phone for that.
So.. checks all the boxes for most people.
for that price 🤤 Hard to pass up
@@mgkole Lol.. why won't it?
look at the background on 7:53 's photo, it's gold
the clap at 2:48 :D man I love the effort you put into your videos... quality is in the details ;)
About time a company made phones looking fun again. Reminds me of the early 2000's when many electronics had see through casings especially gaming consoles. I just need one that's a light purple see through casing
If it was snapdragon 870 instead of 778, believe me it would have been a real threat to all the other phones from midrange to flagships!
edit: I think software updates and patches don't have anything to do with chipsets. I have an unlocked bootloader and i can choose any rom irrespective of android version.
It is just my opinion.I can be wrong as well
they choose 778 for better heat/power efficency
778 is better for long-term software update
yeah 👁️🗨️👁️🗨️ I was expecting 870
I agree about SD870. The company is actually new, so they need something which will be actually useful and bold to justify the £339 price tag rather than claims.
Loved the glyph lights, it's unique, it catches attention but it's actually not very useful enough.
After few years when their eco-system will be strong enough then they can provide this kind of phone for similar or greater price tag.
@@DDTS_F_FAIZ They choose it cause it is cheaper. They cannot sell 870 at this price point.
After scrolling through a ton of reviews on the Nothing phone your's was the best one 👌 🥇
I’ve just bought the black one because of the price difference between black and white. It’s a bit quirky but now I’ve set it up how I want, I love it, partly because it suits my quirky nature and partly because it has a much better spec than my Oneplus 3T which has had two battery changes and now has started playing up.
I hope to God we don't get another OnePlus situation with this one. I'm really rooting for the Nothing company and the potential of what they could evolve into down the road
They aren't related to bbk so it's not going to happen (unless they get sold, or some other mishap happens) and they're on a good track record
They already blew it.
This phone is terrible value for money, has NO new useful features and it supports NFTs natively in the OS.
The market is full to the brim with cheaper and/or better competitor. The only thing they do better is having a unique look.
@@Anankin12 damn quick to dismiss it lol
@@xxDxxism opinions are opinions
@@xxDxxism Realistic btw.
I appreciate how honest you are about the comparisons and stats
its good to see good intended startups like this but its just a new eye catching design really.
Watch Apple “reinvent” it in the next two years and put LEDs in the Pro Models similar to this. Probably make the Apple logo a glowing one
RGB!!! GIFF US R GGGG BBBBBBBBB :P
Back when apple used to have glowing logos on the back of their macbook laptops
Thank you for yet another excellent and informative review.
It would be really cool to see Something reinterpret the factory case that comes with the realme GT Master Edition, the one inspired in travel cases, with protruding stripes.
For anyone wanting to get it, please know that some of the first batch of this phone come with defective screens that show color banding to human eyes. The entire screen shifts color from white at top to green at bottom. So far it's unclear how or if the company will take care of this issue, but I would suggest waiting until their quality control gets better.
There's always teething problems with new phones. Apple even made one of the worst design changes when they released the iPhone 4 with a glass back... So many cracked phones. Samsungs fold screens leaving a crease. Its to be expected.
First batch unit almost _ALWAYS_ have issues. Anyone wanting a brand new phone day one should be taking better care of the current device that they have. It's a want not a need. That simple.
Also pixels can die
is there a source for this?
@@Wojteq69 Well... That's obvious. Lol
Can you do a tutorial on how to maximize the use of a Samsung? Especially the camera which i find is very hard to get the good quality photos on 😩 love your channel 🙌
Can you please do nothing review now?
After all the updates it got?
I am in a confusion its better or not
This review highlights the problem with most phone other phone reviews, they focus on the camera. Most of the people I know do not care that the picture is washed out, they just wanna take a picture as they arent camera-files. The camera seems to be the only thing that most people ( including this channel sometimes) focuses on and takes up around 50% of the review. The beauty of this review is that it doesnt focus on anything but reviews the entire phone. From this I now know that for a reasonable price I could get a high quality phone that is comparable to Apples higher priced options. Wish more reviews would be like this.... at this length and not 6 minutes about the phone and 10 minutes about how the camera is slightly dimmer than another and doesnt have the latest wide angled multi lens gizmo. Phones are more than cameras, youtubers should remember that. In short.... great review.
That is because the camera and media are the only things that differentiate the brands in reality.. All of the other specs are pretty similar so it doesn't matter which phone/brand you will choose... All flagship Androids until this year ran on the same Snapdragon process, except Samsung in Europe... So they all can do the same basically, but the difference comes with how the processing power is utilized and that can be seen best in the camera segment... For example, OnePlus and Xiomi flagships are basically identical in specs, but Xiomi camera is superb, whil OnePlus is just bad and all of that is because of the software...
Not necessarily, a lot of companies throttle phones to elongate battery life. Some run it full throttle which causes overheating. Camera reviews seem to be an easy cop out. PC tech channels test performance, temperature and throttling. The graphics cards are hardly any different in specs but I still know the best manufacturer and what models to stay away from. Heat is an example, my Oneplus 9 pro gets extremely hot in my hand....hardly any reviews go I to detail about it...so guess what? Manufacturers ignore it mostly and focus on the camera performance as they know that would get the most attention during reviews. So i have to put a phone down as it it could potentily be a burn risk but hey it takes great pictures. Is the call quality good? Who cares but the beauty filter makes me look pale...... Just wish people would actually review all parts of the phone and not glance over some things.
I totally agree! Camera obsession is not something most phone users are obsessed with! Only some nerds are. Most people want a good stylish functional phone
I don't expect it to be better than iPhones as it's completely different segment.. both have different target audience, and both are good in their own place 😊

Well-done as any tech reviewer you have done great job reviewing the product really liked it and you and some help from the sponsor made everything clear to the audiance by " something" without hearting feeling of any of the audiance and "nothing" indirectly 😂👍🏻
Fascinating - amazing review. I do think the notifications LEDs will be useful, I'd set them up for girlfriend and family and then the phone would be face down in a restaurant etc, and I'd only even look at it when an important notification comes in. But I do want to see all Discrod, and other notifications on the main screen. So I think this is going to be really useful.
The thing that's annoying me is that the white version is clearly much more aesthetically pleasing, yet the cheapest model with 128GB aka the only one that actually costs 400 like advertised is only sold in black :/
Probably because most people buy white and they're sold out.
@@eatcarpet no! they literally don't make that one for some reason??
I actually prefer the black one, because of the contrast between the led lights and the color
@@HorrorFairy same! the black model is better than the white one imho
I appreciate the effort you and your team put into these videos. Good job
The lightning on the back is actually nice feature. Because i work from home i often have my cell on vibrate. Problem is, set on a table, unless you check the screen, it is not obvious that you missed a call or a text. The backlighting could help also those with hearing issues. Like i set red for call from kids or anyone i do not want to miss a call from.
Which apps and tools and software you use to edit your videos
The phone design is actually nice. I dig it. I really think the company is on to something. It wouldn’t surprise me to see them in the future
7:57 Arun Enjoying the 🇮🇳 vs 🏴 Series
He is a UK citizen. Good for him.
You can't really complain for how good the phone is for it's price and it's just a begining product for a company, the style can change to a sleeker design and polish the corners, I can't wait to see what this company does in the future, it could be competeable to the phone giants of Apple and Samsung.
"A company", no brother, "The company". There's literally nothing new about the company. The swedish CEO, brought his entire experience and expertise after founding Oneplus and leading it for 7 yrs. It's not just a random new company trying to win against big sharks, it's a company run by the guy who became one himself. So don't give them the "Oh hey they new to the biz, let's cut them some slack" because that's how they literally sold a piece of 'nothing' new to the foolish early adopters. And yes it makes a world of difference, he has connections, resources/assets, etc. which any random new starter wouldn't have and would spend decades building.
This company is exactly another 'OnePlus'. Exactly how 1P started out with its shit "Invite only" sale system to generate artificial scarcity and let people accept its price. Exactly how 1P came in as a market disruptor aka flagship killer and exactly how it is going to be 5 yrs down the line when it will be releasing flagship competitors with almost the same price and an outdated design. The design is the identity of a brand, once you settle in, you don't want to change it too much lest you want to lose loyal fanbase. This is their initial design, and it looks hideous, and if it doesn't, then it will, by the time Nothing 5 comes out. I'm not saying Carl is a bad leader, he was greatly involved up until 1P8 and that's when 1P started going downhill. So he can give you a quality experience from his brand, its just not a new one and the product itself is nothing special as you can surmise from the reviews.

As a user of this phone it takes a while to appreciate many of its unique aspects. I wouldn't dare say it's top of the line, but it's functional and does what 'I' need it to do fast and comfortably. I will say though, I did think that the glyphs were a neat but ultimately useless feature. However, while I am at work they have become somewhat useful due to the customisation of the back face glyphs - i keep my phone face down mainly out of habit and because I don't feel comfortable with other people nearby potentially seeing my notifications (I'll spare y'all my anxiety related reasonings) but the glyphs have, on occasion, allowed me to recognise what type of notification/message I've received. Of course it's situational and dependant on my phone being in my line of sight. But one of the niche features, while ultimately niché-ed and not truly practical, has [in my experience] been somewhat useful. I do hope the future Nothing phones are developed with more unique functions that adapt to a diverse user market and build upon the current accessibility of their products.
Are you happy with the phone? Would you buy it again?
I love that you went into details, other than the those "meh" LEDs.
I really, really hope Nothing just stays on this track that they started on. OnePlus didnt and look where it got them. I cannot even begin to express how much of a difference a good vibration motor makes for example.
Yeah, I've gotta say, I've been a fan of OnePlus since they started, and they always seemed to give good performance to price ratios, but could never get one where I live. Then, when I got the opportunity to get one, I got the Nord 5G. Jesus Christ, what a trainwreck, especially the camera. They market it as 64 MP, but it's actually 16 MP upscaled to 64, a really dirty trick when it comes down to it.
One Plus seemingly has been doing Processor Bait n Switch...
Both Their Nord N200 & One Plus 9 Revealed they actually contained a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 - After the Android 12 Install..... I asked One Plus to Explain.... Their Concerned Department hadn't explained yet...
specially considering the owner of this company was one of the founders of oneplus
The lighting in the back design is my favorite thing about this phone, I'll be getting one when they comeback in stock.
What is so exiciting about those LEDs? Do you plan to admire those LEDs all day?
Yeah that pretty much is the only thing that could, or should, be anyone's favourite thing about this phones, since it isn't special in any other way. And you get tired of that back LED shenanigans within a week or two at the most. Probably with 24-72 hours. And then, you just got a "Nothing" but hype, a "Nothing" but bling and a "Nothing" but generic.. phone. And they even ruin the so called "clean" look, by printing that "CE Garbage can" bs warning on.. Yeah, like I said, it's going to feel cool to walk around with for some. But only for a week or two at the most! Then that gimmick effect is going to wear off.. Especially if half your school gets one too! And then you realise that you just spent 399-499£ on a phone that basically looks like a minimalistically pimped iPhone, spliced with a "Pixel a" series phone, but without all the special google only apps, that comes with them. And most of all, without what makes a Pixel, a Pixel!! DA G-CAM!!
In short.. If you aren't rich enough to just buy this, like someone buys their everyday lunch, you're gonna regret that you didn't get a Pixel 5a instead. Or that you didn't fork up an extra 350, and got yourself an iPhone. I.e. if you're that sheep kinda guy or gal!
Swim easy!!
just get one on o2, we got tons of stock
Fantastic video. This is definitely the place for quality content.
Compared to my pixel 6 pro I can honestly say I'd have the nothing phone all day long. The pixel camera is amazing but that's it.
true lmao, already bough the Nothing phone 1 4 months ago and so far no complaints at all!
I like the idea of a phone that's not pre-loaded with battery and storage hogging bloatware. And the glyph that you're not impressed with is one of the features I really like. I'm in conference meetings where I flip my phone down to mute it. But I have missed important calls doing that. I love the idea of the indicator for important contacts. So they took this one idea and said "what else can we do with it?" Good for them.

I think this is an amazing start for the first Nothing. The only thing is that it would be difficult to compete with other flagship phones without increasing the market price of the phone, which is not what the company is looking for right now.
Ptttt the last part was the best sponsored message I’ve ever seen on this channel lmao

I like the led feature. My phone has a single led on the bottom of the screen and just by looking at it i can tell if i have a notification and which app its from based on the color of the led. The led on the nothing phone feels like an upgrade from this
I bought it on release. My OnePlus 6 was showing far too many signs of age and I no longer wanted a barebones workhorse, I just wanted a solid phone that was also a fantastic product. As someone who was nostalgic to the tech of the late '90s-early '00s, where all portable devices had their own identity, this was the right for me for right now.
Yeah I have a OnePlus 6T and the only reason to upgrade it is just because you're sick of using it the phone still is current and performant 5Y after release !! I think I've had it longer than all my other phones combined !!
I will be watching to see where they go in the future.
I said I'll be watching!
2 THINGS that does make it stand out from the rest. The DESIGN and BLOATWARE FREE. I highly appreciate these 2 features and hope that Android phones can adopt this approach.
Agree. For me the only downside for this phone is the battery and charging speed. They should atleast make it 5000mah and. 65w
Poco F3 will destroy this. This is another garbage gimmick phone. The OLED quality is shit tier, the speakers are mid tier android and the backlight is annoying and useless since everyone will just slap a case. It is a joke of a phone. The reality is bloatware doesn't affect the speed of your phone, shit tier processors do. The iPhone comparison is ridiculous. The iPhone mini is far more powerful.
@@ryuixyui don't cry if you can't afford it
@@jorenhipolito8850 5000 is overrated a good charging is enough
@@ryuixyui smh this phone is not here for spec war.
6:17 I can't help but agree with this. Because of this level 5 screen, I would practically never put the phone with the back facing upwards.
whatever glas is on the phone, it will always scratch at some point in its life. so better go with screen protection anyway
@@cuerex8580 You're right. But right there I was talking about a situation where the phone would be as it is out of the box, which means without any protection.
@@Mylca i have a galaxy z fold 3.. i removed all screen protectors and the phone is always in my empty pockets. it scratches up anyway.
The part a peach showed when he said but made my day😂😂
Hey man just wanted to say my brother just got the "nothing phone" and it's great, he got it thanks to you.
Amazing review and content Arun! Keep up the good work!
7:47 did you switch the photos?
[7:52] Arun secretly rick rolled us!! 😂
Incredible video!
I think the LEDs on the back are fun and could be usefull. I often put my phone face-down on a table (in case something drops on it) since the screen hovers above the surface due to the silicone case. If it were charging, i could see from a distance, at a glance, how much the phone is charged. Furthermore, i find myself in situations where i need just a little bit more light to take a picture, but the flash is actually too bright or ruins the mood of an image. Plus it sets it apart. Now, i'm not about to pay 50% more for a phone that is not better than my current Xiaomi phone, but i appreciate the effort.
Edit: mom im famous
reply to this
No
this was my comment too. good
About the Glyph lights being useful as a battery indicator from afar, it seems that the LEDs turn on when you plug the phone in and show the indicator just for a few seconds. After that, the LEDs turn off and you have to wiggle the phone for the lights to show the charge level again. At this point, with the phone already in your hand, you might as well just flip it and read the actual battery indicator.
This is definitely a different phone, but it just seems trying to be desperately so instead of bringing any meaningful value, like the brand wants you to believe.
@@sam81832 So it's a bot.
I love the design! Those markings give a sci-fi feel I really like.
Dont read my name 😑!!
@@dontreadprofilephoto1728 ok
Cool you gonna buy it lol
@@dontreadprofilephoto1728 didn't ask
A video about Nothing that is sponsored by Something. At times life itself is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
There have been software updates to the Nothing Phone. Is the camera any better now after the upgrades?
Even though his review came late I feel like this is the only place where the pros and cons were properly talked about so kudos to you
The nothing phone is actually interesting. Far better than the OnePlus approach for their Nord series approach. Very promising company💯
I lost respect for one plus. I want oxygen os
@@vinod.9290 same. I'm switching to iphone 14 when it launches
@@vinod.9290everything will be shit in one plus if not for oxygen os
@@vinod.9290 fr dude, oxygen os was the best interface i have ever used on an android and it was also the most distinguishing feature of oneplus, getting rid of that was the worst decision oneplus could make. I went from loving oneplus to hating it the moment i got to know they are no longer using oxygen os, i just hope nothing sticks to nothing os
Yeah I want one lol
That video was fantastic! The best phone is the one that doesn't exist. I've been able to travel to some amazing places that I never would have been able to visit without Mighty 🤞🏾 Travels 🤲🏻 Premium.
WTF has this to do with the video
Hi Arun, can you do an in dept video about TVs one day? I feel like it's hard to compare TV's and a few years ago they were made for TV cable, but now it has shifted to watching online streams + TH-cam + even playing video games.
I feel like most TVs have speakers that sound really hollow whenever you play TH-cam on them. Even the SmartTV ones.
How can you connect a USB headset or a wireless one to a TV if you want to play games?
My question short: What's the most decent all-in-one TV?
4:02 loving the effect!
Imma keep it real, even if the glyph interface isnt 'useful', I freaking love it. I don't feel like everything in a phone has to be purely functional, just so long as it doesn't get in the way of the experience.
I feel like it would be tremendously useful for me, who often keeps my phone face down on a table and such.
I can see it being nice if upgraded to rgb and capable of flash levels of brightness - I still miss the notification light from my droid x
You won't like it as much when you realise it adds 50 dollars to the cost
@@rundowngalaxy7675 don't care, it's $400 it's still priced well enough for me to consider it
But you would consider it more if It didnt have lights on the back and instead had better specs right?
Bro the Nothing phone two has released why don't you make one about that?
Please!

You always have some genius way in rick rolling people 🤣🤣🤣
