Qurky, fun, and extremely useful: the Ugreen Uno Charger

The Ugreen Uno 65W charger is an excellent little plug to have around. Thanks to GaN technology, it’s extremely energy-efficient and can charge up to three devices at a time. The charging status is also represented with a fun robot face on an LED screen on its side. When not in use, you can put the Uno charging robot in its pair of magnetic boots and place it anywhere in the room to be a quirky decoration you’d expect to see in a tech corner.

Although Nothing didn’t go deep into details about the update, it did share some information about what to expect. Besides all the new features that Android 15 typically brings, Nothing included the following additional enhancements:

• Improved Quick Settings
• Enhanced Pop-up view
• Visual and Performance Enhancements
• Updated Typography

Nothing OS 3.0 also offers new ways to interact with friends and family via Shared Widgets displayed on the newly designed, fully customizable lock screen. Keep in mind that Shared Widgets are only supported between Nothing devices. Also, only Photo Widgets (square) can be shared.

As part of the Nothing OS 3.0 update, the new enhanced productivity widgets such as the Countdown Widget allow users to stay on track, while the AI-powered Smart Drawer enables users to automatically categorize apps into folders. The Countdown Widget will be available on Google Play via the Nothing Widgets app later this month.

Now, the best part is that Nothing OS 3.0 based on Android 15 is now rolling out to

Phone (2) and

Phone (2a), staggered throughout the end of the year. If you don’t own either of the two phones, you’ll have to wait until next year.

Nothing announced that the Phone (2) and Phone (2a) will be followed by Phone (1), Phone (2a) Plus and

CMF Phone 1 at the beginning of 2025, so there’s really not a lot of waiting involved.
