When I purchased the Nothing 3a, I was coming from Samsung (Note 20 Ultra) with hopes of finding a cheaper alternative. Let me tell you, I had seriously underestimated what I was getting into. I'm not typically a 'brand' person, I just buy what works and isn't too expensive, but Nothing has got me by the throat. I love this phone. Flat out. Screen quality is amazing, the photos p*** off my iPhone buddies, the speed is beyond anything I've had before, and the aesthetics: beautiful. I've been showing it off like a proud father and couldn't be happier. I just purchased the new watch but it hasn't arrived yet, but I have no doubt I will love it as well. Hopefully I can save up the money in this crap economy (we are currently going through IVF so it's tough) to get the earbuds or headphones, I really want a pair and have heard amazing things. I've never posted here before, or on any other tech site, but I genuinely love it so much I felt compelled. I wish Nothing sold a Maglock phone case in shop, and I also wish there was a quick way to change audio output similar to my old Note 20 (maybe I can't find it) but those are my only complaints, but as complaints go they are pretty weak. I haven't read up on other's posts so I don't have a feeling for the community exactly, but I really do love my phone and plan on eventually branching out to try other products.
A note to Nothing: You've got me.
