C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Nothing may be planning a new “Lite” or “T” branded phone. The move could extend Nothing’s reach into the budget segment below the Phone 3a series. Xiaomi and OnePlus have used similar naming strategies to compete in the budget space. Nothing may be looking to broaden its smartphone range with the addition of more affordable models.

One bar can have approximately 200 to 300 calories, give or take, and 11 to 17 grams of protein, depending on the flavor. The total sugars are under 20 grams, but don't include added sugars since they vary depending on the protein bar.
