Nothing CEO Carl Pei wants you to know one thing: the startup’s smartphones aren’t just relying on a schtick. The Phone 3, which was finally unveiled this week after seemingly never-ending leaks and teasers, is being billed as the company’s “true flagship,” which means… to be honest, I don’t know what the hell it means. But it’s clear that Nothing sees it as its most premium phone yet, which is evident not just through its own messaging but also its starting price. The Phone 3 costs $800—more th

Everyone grows up learning the same story about the RMS Titanic, that when the ship set out on its maiden voyage in 1912, the owners and authorities, confident that the ship was unsinkable, did not require it to carry a full complement of lifeboats. So when the Titanic sank in the frigid waters of the North Atlantic, more than half of the people on board died for lack of lifeboat space.

Nothing, a startup from OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, has announced its first flagship phone since 2023. The company bills its new Nothing Phone 3 as a "true flagship" device, but it doesn't have the absolute best hardware you can get in a mobile device. Neither does it have the highest price, clocking in at a mere $799. That's shaping up to be a good value, but it's also the highest price yet for a Nothing phone.

US Supreme Court limits federal judges' power to block Trump orders

The US supreme court has supported Donald Trump’s attempt to limit lower-court orders that have so far blocked his administration’s ban on birthright citizenship, in a ruling that could strips federal judges of a power they’ve used to obstruct many of Trump’s orders nationwide. The decision represents a fundamental shift in how US federal courts can constrain presidential power.
