Nothing Phone (2) will be an iPhone alternative: Carl Pei 

Nothing CEO Carl Pei says that Nothing Phone (2) has a good opportunity to be an iPhone alternative in markets like the US. He stated, “For our first smartphone, Phone (1), we took a focused approach by selectively launching in specific markets and regions. With Phone (1), we have seen encouraging results, being one of the smartphone brands with the highest percentage of users switching from an iPhone across quite a few markets. With the US being a very Apple-dominated market with no real option for people looking for an alternative, it represents a good opportunity for Phone (2).”
