Introduce yourself
Hey Nothing peeps! Appreciate you all having me here I’m Sam and I’m from the UK working in the Nothing Content Team.
Before joining, I used to work for Fnatic as their Videographer & Editor and prior to that I was here there and everywhere making branded video content.
I’m so hyped by the Nothing journey and hearing about their future plans for the tech space. As a bit of a tech fan & nerd it just all sounded super cool and refreshing. I’ve been inspired by everyone I’ve met so far working here and I feel so lucky to be part of the team.
Okay so my most memorable piece of tech has to be the Oculus Quest 2. I’ve not experienced tech in a long time that’s made me feel like a kid again, but VR just adds a whole other level to the games that I already love. Something about using lightsabers to hit flying boxes in time to music just does it for me y’know?
Favourite movie quote is the 5 D’s of dodgeball “Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge” - Patches O’houlihan

SamC Welcome to the community! It’s always lovely to hear from the people that are bringing Nothing to life!

Very cool! I think the OnePlus partnership with Fnatic exposed many of us to the brand for the first time - what was the best project you worked on there?

The Quest 2 is great! I picked one up for my dad last Christmas, and it’s become his go-to method for entertaining guests I love setting up a boundary before playing, and seeing the B&W camera feed of the outside world - it makes you feel like The Terminator!
SamC “Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge”
Thanks for the reminder that this masterpiece exists! I will have to re-watch this weekend
SamC Hey Sam, welcome to the Community side of Nothing. Always nice to hear from the great team behind the scenes. Hopefully, we’ll see you around a bit more, would be great to see some of your videography too.
SamC Okay so my most memorable piece of tech has to be the Oculus Quest 2
Believe it or not, I’ve still yet to experience VR on this level. The Oculus always grabbed my attention from the early inception days of the device. I could just imagine the state of my living room after playing an FPS on one of these
Hey guys, name is Shayantan and I am from Mumbai, India. I came up with the username “Starcommander” in 2014. Here is the story behind this name:
Back when I was in school, my geography teacher once told me that I was blessed with a star birthday. Don’t know what it means but it felt special . In my childhood, I was addicted to commando games like “return to the castle of Wolfestein”. These two events were the main inspiration behind my username. In 2014, I created a Google play profile with the username “Starcommander”. Little did I know, after 7 years, more than half of my friends would know me as Starcommander .
On personal front, I am an iOS developer and have extreme interest in DIY and photography.
I knew about nothing from the day it was announced. Like many other folks, I was an active member of another community and I am very excited to be a part of nothing community. I can see a lot of known faces here. Looking forward to the future
Writing this when I am half asleep. Forgive me for any mistakes
Starcommander Welcome! Pretty funny story for your username haha.
Btw I hope to see some nice shots / DIY projects from you, feel free to share them!

Howdy everyone! SO excited to be here. Let’s do this.
Whereabouts in the world are you? - I am currently in Chicago, IL. Well, technically a little suburb from Chicago but Chicago is “cooler” and more recognizable than Skokie lol
Let us know why you’re interested in Nothing! - Who doesn’t love being part of a community? I’ve been interested ever since I saw the ear (1). But I would love to see what this nothing ecosystem turns into. I want to be part of that, grow with it.
Name a piece of technology that dropped your jaw. - The HTC One (M7). I owned a few Android devices prior to this but this one blew me away. It was fast, reliable and ALL METAL
! But the speakers, my God did I love them. Loud but crisp. Loved showing it off.
What’s your favourite movie quote, or lyric from a song? - If you know me, I’m a huge Metallica fan. No Leaf Clover- "Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way"Post a picture of your spirit gadget. It’s like a spirit animal, but with batteries. - Right now it’s my Pixel 6 Pro.
Eek! Not sure why it posted the same picture twice.

Louis I live in germany, which other reason do you need?
@jdinger03 and @JayAnyWay welcome!
Hey Guys! I am Muzammil from Lahore, Pakistan. I am 19 years old tech enthusiast.
I am a huge fan of Carl since his journey with the OnePlus. Now, if he has introduced Nothing then there must be some super plans ahead that attracted my attention towards Nothing.
My device Mi 10 Youth which I am currently using shocked me. It is a mid-range smartphone that helps me in everyday life.
My favorite lyric is from the song Believer by Imagine Dragons " Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer"
Hope I will be of benefit to Nothing
