Nothing’s mysterious upcoming device shows off a record button in new teaser

If you like getting drip-fed product teasers until launch, nobody does it better than Nothing. From Pokémon codenames to small product glimpses, the company loves to tantalize its audience. In true Nothing fashion, the company is once again teasing something new on the horizon.

In a post on its community forum, Nothing has shared a short video of a mysterious device. The video is an eight-second clip that reveals the corner of a gray rectangular object. That corner includes what appears to be a record button with red and green lights above it. Nothing doesn’t offer any details about the device, but the headline of the post reads, “What if you had the time?”

Earlier this month, Nothing CEO Carl Pei revealed that the company would release an AI-native device sometime in December. He described this hardware as a “tool” that has “no new screen, and it couldn’t have been an app.” Pei also shared a shadowy image showing off the corner of this device. It’s likely that today’s tease is another look at this yet-to-be-announced product.

It’s still anyone’s guess as to what exactly this device is. Early guesses suggested it could be a recorder or note-taking device of some kind. Seeing as the hardware appears to have a recording button, that guess seems a lot more likely now.
