Nothing just made the smartphone and headphone game weird again—and we mean that in the best way possible. The UK-based tech brand just dropped Phone (3) and Headphone (1)—both designed to shake up the stale sameness of consumer tech. Think LED glyphs, Magic 8 Balls, and spin-the-bottle modes baked right into your phone, plus over-ear cans tuned by KEF that make Sony and Bose sweat.

Phone (3) trades spec-sheet maximalism for interactive innovation. The new Glyph Matrix display adds pixel-style animations for games, timers, and selfie previews—plus a literal red recording light on the back. It also introduces the Essential Key, an AI-powered button for instant screen capture, transcription, and deep search. The phone starts at $799.


Meanwhile, the Headphone (1) brings KEF’s acoustic finesse to Nothing’s industrial-chic design. These $299 noise-canceling headphones feature 40mm nickel-plated drivers, tactile physical controls, multipoint Bluetooth, spatial audio, and even a 3.5mm jack. Battery life? 35 hours. Voice clarity? Sharp, thanks to AI-trained adaptive noise canceling on 28 million real-life scenarios. The best part? They look and feel nothing like everything else.
Preorders for both will be available on July 4, with full availability starting on July 15. Nothing’s not just selling gadgets—it’s reshaping how we connect with them.
