Introducing Nothing OS 4.0

Rob ⚡️ · 2025-09-16T15:53:00+00:00

With Nothing OS, we’re building a mobile experience that feels effortless, intuitive, and uniquely human. By combining purposeful design with cutting-edge innovation, we create an ecosystem where software and hardware speak the same design language - clean, open, and beautifully functional. Every interaction is designed to enhance life, not interrupt it. Technology, as it should be: simple, elegant, and quietly powerful. Nothing OS 4.0 takes this vision further. It builds on the foundation of OS 3.0 with deeper refinement, greater cohesion, and more transparency. Every detail has been sharpened, every interaction made smoother. 📐 Refined Design Nothing OS 4.0 brings a sharper, more thoughtful design across every layer. From standardised components to reimagined lock screen clocks and cleaner Quick Settings, everything feels more fluid and intuitive. It’s all about removing clutter and embracing the unified, refined standards that define Nothing. 🌑 Extra Dark Mode Extends Nothing OS’s signature dark aesthetic into an even deeper look. Smarter, more refined, and designed to reduce eye strain while saving power. 🟢 Pop-up View Keeps multitasking fluid with support for two floating app icons. Switch between tasks faster without breaking your flow. ⚡ App Optimisation Fine-tunes how apps start and run. Boosts speed, responsiveness, and overall smoothness across the system. 📷 Photography Experience Powered by TrueLens Engine, Nothing OS 4.0 introduces an upgraded Camera and smarter Gallery. With new controls, creative presets, and a more intuitive layout, capturing and reliving moments feels smoother and more refined across devices. 🔒 AI fully controlled by you New controls put you in charge. Nothing OS 4 goes further in protecting your privacy and keeping you informed, making AI behaviour more transparent and easy to manage. Stay updated with AI (LLM) status hints and a usage dashboard that keeps you fully informed and in control. Powerful, transparent, and all in your hands. ⚙️ General Improvements A more responsive lock screen and AOD, clearer brightness adjustments, stronger connectivity across Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and improved overall stability. Even small details like faster access to Bluetooth recording have been refined to make the experience smoother everywhere. 📲 Open Beta Rollout We’re launching our Open Beta testing program soon. Your chance to experience Nothing OS 4.0 first, with an exclusive preview of Android 16.

Amudhan_Sundararajan I’m okay with having just one pop-up notification… every time I’m on low battery I just watch how many % left a bit more often.

Rob ⚡️ when can we expect to try it out and will it be available for phone 3A too??

Rob ⚡️ will the phone 1 be catered for as well?

DuckRogers

jagunkamam philiplarry035 No new OS updates for Phone 1 as it has already received the promised amount of updates. It will continue to receive security updates a while longer, also NP1 users have access to an exclusive discount if they want to upgrade to the NP3.

DuckRogers is that deal strictly for Europe or it cuts across all continents?

[unknown] the announcement for that will be done in some time… Its open beta… so every one can test it and use it…

Open beta for Android 15 was around October/November and stable A15 NOS3 got released in January…

So there are chances that open beta for A16 should be around this timeline only…

DuckRogers

philiplarry035 Everywhere I believe, unless there are countries that Nothing have difficulty shipping their products to that has been addressed before.

OMG My first beta on Nothing OS, that would be awesome ! Need it for my Phone (3). I saw the date “25 oct” on the lockscreen in the video, is it a sign ?

DuckRogers

philiplarry035 I’m not sure if there is a relevant thread but if you go on Nothings main website there is a button you can press on the homepage to check if you’re eligible for the discount for NP3

Do we get more Nothing Apps like Messageing or other things so we can remove Google apps 100%

I have yet to find good FOSS replacement for messages/phone/contacts.

Also we need a Nothing File Manger that all 4 apps have Zero Trackers as an icing on the cake
