Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing and former founder of OnePlus, made a curious “honest” review of Apple’s latest iPhone release.
A member of Nothing’s content team bought an iPhone 14 Pro for Pei to review. He has been using the iPhone 14 Pro for a few days to get to know it in depth and has posted his impressions in a video.
After testing the iPhone 14 Pro as a secondary phone, Carl Pei starts with its design and, unsurprisingly, talks about the notch at the top of the display (the “Dynamic Island”).
While Pei believes this is a smart design choice on Apple’s part, also think the feature was a bit over the top🇧🇷
Pei also talks about the similarity of the Nothing Phone (1) to the iPhone. Pei is a little irritated by this comparison, although he understands the similarities in some ways, like the side buttons. Of course, the back of both phones is very different, as the CEO of Nothing points out, as the Phone (1) features the Glyph lighting interface on its back.
Pei also talks about screens, cameras, operating system experience and pricing, pointing to the difference between Apple’s profit margins on the iPhone 14 Pro and Nothing’s on the Phone(1).
In his final words, Carl Pei states that the iPhone 14 Pro is one of the best phones on the market for its cameras and performance.
However, he also says that if the consumer is interested in differentiating themselves and supporting a smaller company, the Nothing Phone (1) should be the right choice, as it costs less than half the price of the competitor and still impresses.
