Nothing Expands to 500-Plus Best Buy Stores in US, Broadening Access to 4 Devices

3 articles · Updated · Android Police · Jun 12

Summary

  • More than 500 Best Buy stores in the US now carry Nothing’s Phone (4a) Pro, Headphone (a), Phone (3) and Ear (3), with the full lineup also listed on BestBuy.com.
  • The retail push targets a key hurdle for the London-based brand: limited US availability that had kept shoppers from seeing its phones and audio gear in person before buying.
  • Nothing had already improved US access after earlier carrier-compatibility issues and recent Amazon availability, but the Best Buy deal gives it a much wider physical footprint.
  • Carl Pei framed the partnership as a way to make Nothing’s design-led products more accessible as the company tries to move from niche favorite toward broader US adoption.
