Isn’t Nothing practically a Chinese brand with just the marketing department working in the UK?
Here in Sweden they started with fishing for funding and making press about being a Swedish company. It worked and they got hype. Then they moved to some UK tax haven and now they are apparently based on London.
I’m not very supportive of Nothing.
Also, there’s a EU flag but the UK has been so stupid to leave the EU.

No, the Council of Europe flag is different and it includes a white handwritten “e” all around the stars.

Spez is also part of Nothing
Fuck it then.
Nothing’s headquarters is in London so by definition it is a UK company.
Just like Apple is an Irish one 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
They are all so fucking huge! Can’t anyone make a good <= 6" Phone anymore?
The FP6 is only marginally larger (6.3") and actually “feels” fairly compact, if that makes sense. Recently switched to one from a FP3 (5.6") without any issues and without having to adjust anything about how I use it.
Thanks to this post I bought Nothing Phone 3. Awesome. Thanks!
Thank you for directing your money to where your values are!
The Volla Quintus appears to be almost identical, to the Daria Bond that is sold in the UAE. Specs look identical from what I could see and the only difference I can make out are very minor design changes in the back side shell. Volla’s marketing and statements are pretty misleading about that. I am not saying they should not work with Chinese OEMs but they create the impression there was meaningful customisation going on from their side, maybe there was but it looks very much off the shelf from an OEM model.
At the same time Volla also sells Plinius. It is actually a stronger phone, for a lower price than the Quintus but looks very much like the strongest Gigaset phone (which is lower mid-range), so should be actually manufactured in Germany (as much as any phone in Europe could possibly be I think). It is bewildering that they don’t put the Gigaset model square and centre.
to add another (german) brand: https://www.shift.eco/
I had the shiftphone6 back in 2018 and I believe it had an alternative OS installed, in any case I can’t remember the google play store pre-installed (correct me if I’m wrong).
Any of them run Linux or fully non-google android?

Fairphone has an atrocious update policy. They do not care for security.
I highly recommend the e/os for the fairphones. Security wise it’s really great! And with the installer not that hard to install (imo)
The audiophiles will crucify me, but I will accept two USBC ports as consolation.
Volla Quintus best!
