According to a recent Inverse report, Nothing, Carl Pei’s new company, has been actively recruiting former OnePlus employees. Currently, approximately 70% of the software team and 30% of the hardware team at Nothing previously worked at OnePlus. While this information isn’t officially confirmed, Carl Pei himself welcomed Kyle Kiang on board, who previously served as the Chief Marketing Officer at OnePlus.
In his new role as Vice President for Nothing in North America, Kyle Kiang will lead the launch of the highly-anticipated Nothing Phone (2). Unlike last year, the Phone (2) is expected to be a flagship device equipped with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and will be available in the US. Carl Pei’s decision to bring Kyle on board is likely influenced by his previous success in negotiating the OnePlus and T-Mobile partnership.
It appears that Nothing aims to target tech enthusiasts, much like OnePlus did in its early days. Many longtime OnePlus fans believe that the company has lost its spark in recent years, creating an opportunity for companies like Nothing to appeal to this tech-savvy audience.

As per MySmartPrice, Nothing’s forthcoming Phone (2) will be a superior contribution to its ancestor. While the Nothing Phone (1) was a mid-ranger, the impending form of the phone will probably be a lead or possibly a “flagship killer” of sorts.
The underlying report focuses on a Snapdragon 8 series chipset managing everything and since the gadget is supposed to be declared in the final part of this current year, it’s conceivable that this would be the Plus version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Last year’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 turned out in the final part with a declaration in May.
At any rate, the chip will be matched with up to 12GB of RAM, no less than 256GB of inside storage, and a 120Hz OLED display. Power will be provided by a 5,000 mAh battery. The report uncovers nothing past that except for since we are months from the delivery, more bits of hearsay will clearly fill the holes meanwhile.
