Nothing to exit from 12 countries as global shipments decline

Nothing is in the process of shutting down in 12 or more global markets. The exits include the Middle East, Japan and parts of Europe.

In addition, global headcount is being reduced by 40% and the company’s R&D unit, which is split 70:30 between China and London, is facing layoffs of around 50% and 30 to 40% respectively.

The Phone (4b) has shipped approximately 20,000 units globally since launch, while the Phone (4a) and Phone (4a) Pro have together reached around 150,000 units.
Nothing's sub-brand CMF has no plan of launching any phone in 2026 and the CMF 3 Pro was cancelled in favour of Nothing 4b.

Blame AI data centers for hiking memory, storage and soon SoC prices which leads to increase in smartphone pricing and thus a huge decline in sales

OnePlus's next flagship device, the OnePlus 16 is aimed at gamers. It will target the eSports market and will compete with the iQOO's next flagship, the iQOO 16.

None of the 16's would debut in India or globally and both of them will remain China exclusive only.

Nothing team has been collecting unsold units of Phone 3 from global markets and selling them at a 50% discount in India.

Even after that, stock is running out due to price hikes on smartphones by OEMs, which have now made the Phone 3 a worthy buy from its price-to-specs ratio perspective.

EU Fines Google $1.02B for Favoring Its Own Services

Google has been fined €460 million for favouring it's own services in shopping, hotels, transport and sports results in ​search results, and another €430 million for Google's restrictions on its app store Google Play preventing app developers from steering users free of charge ​to cheaper offers on rival app stores or websites.

To comply, we are having to strip away real-time Search features Europeans love - like instant pricing and ​direct availability for hotels, flights, and restaurants - and dismantle safety protections on Google Play
