Carl Pei mocks Lenovo for mimicking Nothing’s design, Twitter reacts
Nothing’s CEO Carl Pei recently took a jibe at Lenovo for imitating the design of his company’s product. Lenovo recently launched its TWS (True Wireless Stereo) earbuds called ThinkPlus. The earphones look similar to the design of the Nothing Ear 1. In addition to this, the charging case is transparent too, just like Nothing’s earbuds. Sharing the image of the Lenovo product, Pei wrote, “Nice headphones,” and tagged Lenovo. Pei ended the caption with a laughing emoji, making the mockery as transparent as Nothing’s products.

Some claimed that Nothing’s phone hones a similar design that of an iPhone.

Some others also claimed that Nothing took inspiration from JBL.
The transparent design scheme gained quite a lot of traction and the company leading the wagon is Nothing. But Nothing is not the only brand in the market that offers tech products.
This is not the first time that Pei has scoffed at a brand on social media. In July this year, Motorola trolled Nothing after the company launched the Phone (1). Motorola, in a tweet that is now deleted, said, “When you can have everything, why go for nothing.” Taking cognisance of the tweet, Pei said, “93-year-old brand paying to a < 2 year old brand.”
