Nothing is finally bringing its flagship smartphone to the United States…as part of a beta program.
In an email to customers and across its media channels, the company announced today that it is launching the Nothing Beta Membership, a new membership program offered to customers who want to test out the Nothing Phone (1) in the United States.

The company does not that, since it is a beta, customers can miss certain features and that the phone may not work with all carriers in the country.
Please note, the Phone (1)’s distributed are for testing purposes. Whilst these are final models, devices may not work with all US carriers. Since this is a Beta version of the software, users may experience some limitations. Please read the below FAQs before continuing.
Definitely take a look at the FAQ section to get all of the details you need to ensure you can actually use the phone if you order it. Worst case, Nothing does have a 14-day return policy. Anyone who is interested in purchasing the beta membership program can do so on the Nothing website.
Even if it’s a beta, it’s great to see Nothing getting its phone into the market. More competition is always better.
