Out of the box

Nothing calls (3A) a minimum yet comes in unconventional packaging design. Instead of the standard two-tukra box, there is nothing for the book-style flap on its cardboard packaging, the top with an additional cardboard sleeve. The inner box has an elegant embossed design, which shows the attention of the brand in detail. Every part of the packaging, including the phone catching internal cradle, is fully recycled cardboard.

Unfortunately, nothing (3A) does not come with a broad retail package. Inside the box, you will only get a branded USB Type-C Type-C Cable and a SIM Ejector Tool-no bundle charger or case.
