If you think smartphones are expensive today Just wait one more year the real price shock is still coming. In India, prices of budget phones and home appliances are rising quickly Many products are returning to the price levels last seen 6–8 years ago Phones that once sold for under ₹10,000 now cost ₹13,000–₹14,000, and some may soon hit ₹17,000–₹20,000

Good Morning

4a Pro is selling way over target, looks like it grew on others too. :)

Nothing is @RCBTweets's Title Sponsor for IPL 2026! Last season we partnered with them, and they won the championship. This year we're going all in. India has been central to our story since day one. We're the country's fastest-growing smartphone brand for 7 of the last 8 quarters, and Bengaluru is where we just opened our first store, with 2,000+ people lining up on day one. This is yet another statement of where we're headed.

Looks like a lot of new people are discovering Nothing for the first time in 2026. Welcome!

Phone (4a) Pro reviews are in. Our first all-metal unibody. Our thinnest phone ever. “The two best looking Nothing phones of all time” – @MKBHD “Compare the Phone (4a) Pro to its immediate rivals, the Pixel 10a and iPhone 17e, and it looks impressive” – @verge “Nothing has successfully refined its hardware into a more premium, all-metal unibody” – @engadget “Nothing continues to break the mould, standing apart from its core competition” – @T3dotcom “Honestly, Apple and Samsung: take note” – @techradar 💪

A powerful iPhone-hacking technique known as DarkSword has been discovered in use by Russian hackers. It can take over devices running iOS 18 that simply visit infected websites. wired.com/story/hundreds…

Did our video team cook 🧑‍🍳❓ #NothingPhone4a

Phone (4a), Phone (4a) Pro, and Headphone (a) just launched today! More capable, more expressive, and more colorful than anything we’ve built before. Nothing is designed for a generation bored with conformity. We exist to provide the canvas. The real stories are written by the creatives, designers, and techies who make these devices their own.

A lot of our friends in the tech industry are stuck at airports in the Middle East. Hoping that situation gets solved quickly so that they can reach to their destinations. Stay strong my friends.

It doesn’t matter whether Khamenei is dead or not. What matters is how insane it is to live in an era where one country can assassinate the heads of other states with total international impunity. The fact that this precedent is now fully normalized is fucking nuts.

Mumbai University didn’t allow Naseeruddin Shah to speak. So, Mumbaikars turned up in large numbers to hear him deliver the talk at an alternate venue, with Anand Patwardhan moderating it. A full house for him, and a rebuke for those who tried to silence him.

Now that the AI Summit is over we should brace for the impact of bad regulation in India: SIM binding, govt mandated fast censorship of social media, block of Supabase, and censorship of AI content are the beginning. Our clueless IT and Telecom ministries think there's only big tech on the Internet, and use broad blunt instruments to restrict internet usage and break established structural practices. There was a time when ministries took feedback from Civil Society. I've sat in those meetings. Now they talk only to lobbyists, including law firms, who speak for their clients, often to the detriment of their competition or the detriment of the Internet. I see lobbyists on TV and writing opeds without giving disclosures, and our media enables this. Founders offload policy work to lawyers and policywonks who don't get it. Like our ministries, most of these people don't truly understand the web and the impact on how we build and use things. Like bureaucrats, all they know is law and policy. Almost none of them build and play with tech. There are some, but tech and business are largely missing from the conversation. There's lots of room for posturing, agendas, MoUs and photo ops. Very little room for understanding all sides, and hard conversations. That's how bad decisions get taken.
