Nothing Phone 1 is coming to America in Android 13 'testing program'<p>The Nothing Phone 1 is heading to the US, although not yet to the entire public. Founder Carl Pei
tweeted this morning that the US will be part of a “testing program” for Nothing OS 1.5 Beta, the handset maker’s custom Android 13 software.</p><p>It’s Pei’s second public statement this month teasing a US phone release. Earlier this month, he
said his company was “in discussions with some carriers in the US to potentially launch a future product there,” citing US wireless companies’ “unique customizations” for initially skipping it. Earlier this year, the company said the phone
wouldn't be coming to North America, and it isn’t clear if that changed or if he's targeting an unannounced smartphone for the US market. With Nothing saying it’s sold 500,000 phones without stateside availability, it may be in a stronger position than it was a year ago to negotiate with Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><div id="4c73ce4fc7354d279eeacb41b8af96ae"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Preparing for a US launch
