Hey @asalynskii — absolutely spot on! 👏🔥 I couldn’t agree more.
@Smii , I get where you’re coming from about design and premium feel. But here’s the thing: when a brand markets something as a “true flagship”, it’s not just about aesthetic vibes — it’s about delivering on all fronts: chipset, display, battery, charging, cameras, software, and price point.
As @asalynskii pointed out so well, brands like OnePlus and even Poco have shown us what’s possible at lower price points. When they can offer near-flagship specs (like Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, big batteries, crazy fast charging, unique designs) for around ₹30K–₹50K, it really makes you question how Nothing justifies ₹80K with compromises on core flagship specs.
Of course, most people might not “notice” chipset differences in daily use, but if you’re promising 5 years of software updates, you better have the hardware to keep up smoothly for that long. Otherwise, what’s the point of future-proofing? 🤷♂️
We’re not saying Poco or others have the same premium software experience as Nothing. But at the end of the day, people weigh value for money. If you’re asking a premium price, the phone should feel premium everywhere — not just in the hand but also in the phone spec.
As @asalynskii said perfectly:
Nothing is asking too much for a phone that doesn’t deliver enough to justify the price.
And that’s the core of it — no hate, just facts. ✌️💬
