- I live in Portugal although I am originally an American.
- I had been researching phones, figuring to buy a new one in January, kind of settled on Nothing, but my last phone started having location and battery problems and decided to get the Phone (2) last weekend. The Nothing phone just seems exciting at a time when mobile phones have become more and more uniform. I’m old as dirt and having been using mobile phones since 1989 (Motorola Flip Phone that cost $1800, company thought I needed it) and worked in the phone business from 1990 to 2014.
- As I said, I’m old as dirt, hard drives that fit in a personal computer wowed me beyond belief.
- “Heaven is a place where Nothing ever happens.” Couldn’t resist.
- I don’t have a spirit gadget. I have a Frida Kahlo doll on a chair facing me in my office, something of an inspiration, but she doesn’t have batteries.
Hi everyone!
Nice to be here sharing our love for Nothing’s vision of tech industry!
I’m Drex, from Valencia, Spain.
On my way to switch from an iphone 14 to a NP2, still dealin’ with it.
Nothing is one of the most exciting companies right now in the business, as an engineer, I’m excited about what they bring us in the future!
The piece of technology that really change my mind was my first ipod on 2008, the u2 edition, it was the beginning of a journey that has made my life path.
My spirit gadget is a DAC, i’m really a digital fan but also appreciate the analogic world!
KR,
Drex.

I am from the Netherlands moving away from a Sony Xperia 1iii.
Like the looks of the Nothing Phone 2 and the Glyph, but still prefer the shape of the Sony a bit better. 
If we go way back…
- Palm Treo 650 + 680
- Palm Pre + Pre 2
- Palm Pixi (love the small form factor)
- HP Pre 3
- Blackberry Q10
- Blackberry Classic
- Blackberry Passport (my favorite)
- Sony Xperia 1
And some other work phones, which I prefer the Sony Xperia 10 series, small and long lasting.
The reason for the Xperia 1 iii was form factor and fingerprint reader on the power button because I always apply privacy screenprotectors. When these are applied the fingerprint reader under screen does not work anymore, which is my main negative point. 
RXShorty Eclectic lineup! I always wanted to try the Passport myself, super interesting form factor.
Interesting mention on privacy screen protectors, I know they’re pretty popular - I usually see them used on iPhones which of course use Face ID…is it possible for an optical fingerprint reader to operate with one applied at all?
@Rob 
Passport was the perfect phone for me. Touch sensitive keyboard so you can scroll and still use physical buttons. BBOS10 was also a great OS.
One I forgot to mention is the Jolla Phone, which was most of the time not useable for me. 
Did use a Nokia N9 for a very short period.
Regarding the privacy screenprotectors I have tried all of it with multiple devices and it doesnt work or unreliable. Face unlock on the Nothing Phone 2 is good enough. If it only could be used as a passkey or such. The Pixel 8 does support face unlock for banking apps, so my hope is that Nothing Phone 3 will be on that level.
Or even better have a special cutout or non privacy part on the fingerprint sensor with a privacy screen protector. It should not much of a privacy issue as the fingerprint sensor is located at the very bottom of the phone. 
Hi, I’m Rahil Anwar, currently pursuing Information Technology in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Studying IT has been an exhilarating journey, especially diving into the world of technology and its innovations.
I find myself drawn to Nothing due to my passion for innovative tech and the excitement of being part of a forward-thinking community. The prospect of collaboration within a global network and witnessing Nothing’s vision come to life is incredibly appealing.
Speaking of tech that amazed me, I was once awestruck by a CPU at Dreamhack Hyderabad 2023 that resembled something out of an Iron Man movie. The design was mind-blowing, even though I couldn’t delve into its detailed specifications. It left a lasting impression with its futuristic appeal.
As for a favorite quote, Spider-Man’s iconic line, “With great power comes great responsibility,” resonates deeply with me. It’s a timeless reminder of the importance of using one’s abilities conscientiously, transcending beyond the realm of superheroes into our everyday lives.
I’m thrilled to join this community and share thoughts and experiences with fellow tech enthusiasts. Looking forward to engaging and learning together
good day

Good day,
Sending greetings all the way from Botswana and wanted to say that I recently learned of Nothing from a project I was working on with regards to Start-up Companies and from the moment I laid my eyes on Nothing I knew that this is about to be the for front of technology moving forward. This doesn’t look like a new product entering into the tech world, it feels like the tech world is going to have to try fit into its design. I hope that this company and community continue to grow and work side by side in giving positive feedback and constructive criticism so that we can all come out with the best gadgets and most pleasurable desires.
In Terms of the first piece of technology that dropped my jaw, I will always look back to my first gaming console. I couldn’t believe that the world of imagination and animation could come to life and be in the palm of my hands for control. I always loved cartoons and fictional works and I am certain my interest in gaming played a vital role in the interests I have to this day.
One of my favorite quotes is “to know the cost of everything and the value of nothing”, which is such an interesting coincidence to be sharing on a Nothing Community Chat 
And lastly in introducing myself I believe it’s only fair that I share my spirit gadget
