are u okay? 4:47 keeps happening
now gamora wil be unhappy
Thank you for showing us how Nothing is made
Noob joke
@@SHIVAM.M.SThanks Bot 😂😂
I see what you did there
@@SHIVAM.M.S y u crying?
How Nothing makes everything.
I am so happy nothing gave YOU the opportunity for this. You did this better than anyone else could. Great video!
Glad to hear you liked it!
@@TechAltarplease let Carl commit to repairability, simple things screen, battery etc
This makes me appreciate how xiaomi used to function in the beginning. The demand they'd create with their flash sales that sold out instantly must have been great for the sustainability in the beginning stages
The level of transparency is insane
Thank you
I think transparency is kinda their whole thing lmao
Education
Quite literally
Yeah he even ticked the paid promotion checkbox as youtube is crystal clear about paid trips being paid promotion.... Oh wait..
Is it just me or 50 Milli's are quite a lot to R&D a smartphone that doesnt really do anything more than the competion.
Especially for a startup on their 1st product
A BYD plant being in India explains a lot about the pricing of Nothing Phone 1 in India.
The Phone 1 initially launched at around 40,000 INR (~500 usd) but in the suddenly the prices fell to 30,000. This was probably when they started manufacturing the phones sold in India in Chennai.
it even went below 26k in Sales, and at that Price Nothing (1) is Far better than any other competitors.
@@TimelyTurtle would've been true around a month ago. I think Moto edge 40 is the best buy in that price bracket (as a competitor to NP1).
I think there's also a realme device with an SD888 that goes for 25K at times.
Still, I do not regret my decision to get an NP1. It's been almost 6 months now and I love this device.
@@IcyB-xg6xs absolutely true but in my opinion Motorola is now the Old Redmi, I mean they provide a good specs to price but their Camera sucks just like Redmi used to be before. Whereas NP1 is good in every aspect, btw I might buy NP2 if it comes under 35k (in sale may be)
No, it launched for 33k, now its 30500.
@@TimelyTurtleMotorola has another problem... Steady software update....
I love the career curve: from OPPO representative ambassador to Tech-UA-camr interviewing Carl Pei and the Nothing phone production overview :)
is it good or bad?
Carl Pei is a marketing genius. This is great advertisement.
Thank you for covering such details in an easy to understand way
Really well made video, enjoyed it very much!
Amazing dive into the suppply chain. Great video!
Wow, this is an eye opener for any potential startups that want to make their own hardware and also how most phones develovep. Thank you for sharing this.
This is not only an interesting story about making the NothingPhone1, but a good business lesson. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Easily the most interesting tech video I've seen this year.
Awesome Video! Great insights! 🎉
Great insights. Enjoyed this video.
This video is gold... thank you tech altar
Been using my Phone (1) since release almost one year ago and I'm still satisfied. Very nice to have a look at how it's made!
Sonnyball. iPhone 1 hasn’t worked as a cellular phone for many years. The 2G was shut down. You’re lying.
@@ericB3444 bruh
nothing phone 1
This is phenomenal content. Thank you very much 👍
Awesome video man!
Very interesting video. Loved this, thank you!
Amazing video and really interesting topic!
i highly appreciate your efforts for making this excellent coverage video, providing lot of interesting insights into the whole process of phone manufacturing. Thanks.
This was a very insightful video. Thank you.
learned so much from this. Thanks to you and nothing. Wish I could get the nebula sub to watch the second part. but no problem.
Watching this on my nothing (1) phone.
Please make Carl commit to repairability.
exactly! We need a strong player in that space.
Small company
Gsus, I never cease to be amazed that anything made by a new company at scale makes it. So much money tied up in (at best) about 3 months - that's crazy!
Thanks for another fantastic video!
Jesus😊
I can relate to the whole process and problems being a hardware startup. Very well covered. Whole idea of beating the odds is heavily dependent on the vision of a company and a clear plan to success.
building a brand from scratch ina crowded tech space ain't easy work
Uploaded in the middle of the night when I can't sleep. Thanks
Amazing, highly informative video. Incredible research and great explanations of the steps, processes and cash ebb and flow gives a super insight into the complexities of this vital business. Thank you for such a well-narrated examination of the realities of the process. No gimmicks, just a great job.
Amazing information. Thanks
bro, the fact that company is called "nothing" made me confused so many times during the video
what an interesting and informative video. thank you!
Nothing is such a awesome phone and great video man :]
Wow. This was so informative
The reason it took them one year only to develop the phone is because this phone didn't bring ANYTHING new other than a couple of LEDs in the back. Even price and spec wose, this phone can be overtaken by any Samsung A series phone.
man the tone from your last vid is so different. Carl Pei made good and affordable a advertisement choice
WOW, nice big step upwards!
love your vids man keep up the good work !
Amazing video! Nice
This video taught me something really interesting and yet still underwhelming;
You can start a generic android phone company with little to no experience and little to no in-house production, by outsourcing everything including the software and only designing the back glass/ cover shape.
I think that should be a thing too
Diy phone where you choose the chasis shape and size from 2 or 3 options and then all the other components depending on your budget
You've met Carl Pei, the creator of my favourite smartphone ever: the OP7.
I hate notches: OP7 had the best popup camera ever.
I love curved screens: OP7 had one
And everything else was just perfect. Only way to make a better smartphone would be to add a removable battery.
Mister Pei, I you release a Nothing with a popup camera, I'll buy your phone(s) blindly.
Good news, the EU is mandating that all smartphones have a removable battery!
Hatsoff to the guy in 2:47 reading a realllly biggg book to build NOTHING 😅
I love you, Carl Pei and Nothing.
These types of stories give them loyal fans
I normally don't agree with your opinions on tech in general, but your ability to gather information, breakdown topics and explain the nuances is stellar. This was one of your best.
And $50m+ later the native camera app still takes forever to save images while zoomed in
I am no expert, but what I gleaned from this, is that we do not need really need yearly iterative upgrades.
Honestly the first thumbnail on the cutting board was super nice
Me: tell me about startups.
Techalter: they die.
Wow, this sounds like taking a huge risks but it seems in the case of Nothing it will pay off. I believe they could become very good competitor of Apple and their ecosystem but they need more time. Thank you for sharing the information with us through this video!
please make a video on the display issues on LED screens,The green line issue on amoled screen that happen to appear on mobile screen after software updates -the issue has occured on most of the phones like Apple Iphone,Samsung,poco phones etc
I have a nothing phone and I have been using it every day for a year or so. The input responsiveness is laggy sometimes and the lockscreen glitches and hangs sometimes. These things might be forgivable if it weren't for a serious flaw with the camera. Apparently the phone has a 12mp and a 50mp mode. You take the same picture with each mode in bright daylight, zoom in, and there is literally no difference between the two images. Maybe this is one of the outsourcing companies cutting corners? Anyway, I won't be buying another nothing phone.
Interesting case study. I used OnePlus one and OnePlus 5, infact I am using the same OnePlus 5 since it's launched, it's been 6 years and it still works fine. I guess Carl Pei and his team are unique. If I need to replace my OnePlus 5, I will choose nothing either the phone 2 or 3. They will reach their quality standards eventually.
OP5 here too :D
@@dreonnac3169op6 here...but I have had some issues this year...so need an upgrade... OnePlus now is not the same. And nothing seems promising.
OP1 -> OP6 -> Phone (1)
@@dreonnac3169 apparently the fingerprint is not working for me since a month. It's completely software, even hard reset or complete new installation didn't help, this is some issue among old OnePlus phones with old oxygen OS 10 and below.
Amazing video
🍻 Wounderful 👊 Insight 🍻
Thank you for showing us Nothing.
Lmao hearing “they want to do more user testing in the future” gives me flashbacks to some of my enterprise jobs. Management just didn’t grasp the importance
Wow man this is great, really fresh content keep it up
Who would've believed anything useful would come out of TechAltar's obsession with nothing. This is incredible.
Thanks for telling us how much it cost to make this real... ive been thinking myself about making my own phone with what i want... and while my phone wouldnt be anywhere near as fancy it would still probably cost on the order of tens of millions
Could somebody please tell me what Launcher or App he used at 7:33 ? It looks so beautiful :D
Ratio launcher by Blloc
I hope people will support these kind of phone
.. thanks ,, great job
Very good video
Very interesting video. Although I am firmly embedded in the Apple ecosystem I appreciate the way Android (as a "production ecosystem") enables opportunities for smaller companies to get into the smartphone market. Some kind of ideas can only thrive in a smaller environment and will be beneficial for all in the long run.
Imagine paying $50 million dollars and getting Nothing in return.
I've been watching Nothing devices and am very curious about them, but as a former and twice badly burned customer of OnePlus, I'm still a bit leery of Carl Pei.
Thank you
This was the first time I felt that TechAltar clickbated , The title say with carl and then he is not in it 😶,
buy subscription to watch it. wow
It is a good choice to change the name of the video,
I didn't watch the video when the title was how to maks a smart phone
wow... gees... that's crazy numbers...
So basically $150 million is around the minimum capital needed to enter this space.
Carl Pei is a very experienced man in this industry and hence he has connections for better deals. A new player without experience might need double of that
400 mil without carl pei probably.
This is amazing .
isnt nothing using visionox or some other supplier for display?
Do you think Nothing will be the top flagship company in the coming generations due to their transparency as a company, or do you think this strategy will hinder their growth in the flagship market?
honestly so sad that not enough people are going to buy this phone no matter how much they put into it....
So much money and they still F up the audio quality on the phone (not joking...see some reviews). 😅 Anyway with that out of the way mad respect for a company which shares this info. 🎩
Thank you🙏
2:11 because they are a small company. OnePlus said the same. It's not small, it just the remnant essential phone.
Glad to know the Company have Nothing to worry about.
Wow Nothing, thanks so much
3:23 "teenage engineers agreeing with nothing"
Yeah, I remember that age -.-
Ok, I'm not gonna complain about minor bugs on my phone anymore.
Anyone know how many years do they provide OS update?
Nothing CEO must be a very fulfilling position 😂
Ngl, after watching this I'm actually feeling to buy a Nothing phone.
Im watching this in the phone 😂😂
Come back HTC with a version of the M9+ !
Great video my next phone is a nothing 😊💪
Me watching in nothing phone 1 😂
😮 It cost $50m just to make Nothing 😮
Display was from visionox the secondary camera was from samsung jn1 for nothing phone 1
One Indian Tech Channel, ASBYT & now Tech Alter...
All follow the same Script - Insights into the Nothing office, talk about their efforts on Phone (1) , SCM & followed by an interview with Carl.
Great job Marketing team 😏💯
Wow, this really is a second to nothing video about the business of making a phone.
who?
If I prefer iOS but like natural looking photo, should I get iPhone 14 Yellow because I loge yellow color or Sony Xperia 1 V or wait for iPhone 15?
Even iPhones nowadays have their photos equipped with some forms of post-processing software algorithms, so cannot say it's natural anymore
You are making some great strides of late
