Interesting take. But let’s not forget that Nothing wouldn’t be where it is today without the overwhelming support and bulk sales of the Phone (1) in India: a market that embraced the brand early and gave it credibility. Dismissing this market now with “not targeted at India” sounds dangerously close to saying Indians don’t deserve the Phone (3), which is ironic given how value-conscious doesn’t mean value-blind.
Appreciate the 3A, but let’s not pretend like Indian consumers can’t evaluate premium tech in fact, they just do it better.
