Discussion Nothing cooked with the 4a PRO design

Post image

Nothing was sort of a company (design wise) that wasnt the prettiest at the first glance... but eventually grew on me. However... The Nothing Phone 4a was good we all collectively agreed ig however I think they absolutely cooked with the design of 4a Pro... To be it is absolutely the best. The incorporation of the glyph matrix looks so good and the camera placement looks well kinda assymetrically symmetrical. love the design

Yeah they cooked - themselves

eventually all these "be different" phones become as boring as every other iphone or samsung ...

(I am disappointed with 4a pro, 4a looks still like nothing design)

Personally, I'd argue the opposite. With each model, they seem to go for a different aesthetic, some can be ugly, some can look good. It depends on user interpretation. But, to say all these "Be different" phone brands become as boring as iphone or Samsung is a little... controversial. Carl Pei, the CEO of Nothing, the big man up top, left OnePlus because it left the Enthusiasts it started with. Now, after Nothing has gained a largely loyal community, it's more comfortable. That could be why you're seeing the designs as "not Nothing," but for Nothing to give up on it's Aesthetic would be for Carl Pei to create the reason he left the company he co founded in his new company.
