As Nothing gears up to unveil its Phone (2) on July 11, an intriguing development has surfaced that suggests the brand might be expanding its product portfolio further. A recent certification listing on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website has revealed a device from Nothing under the smartwatches category. This discovery has sparked speculation that Nothing may soon venture into the wearables segment. Let’s delve into the details.
Nothing’s Smartwatch: BIS Certification Points to a New Direction
Tipster Mukul Sharma, known for spotting industry leaks, uncovered the BIS listing for a Nothing device with the model number D395. The listing indicates that Nothing might be preparing to enter the smartwatch market. Interestingly, there are hints that the smartwatch could be launched under a sub-brand called CMF by Nothing, as suggested by a previous trademark filing spotted by Sharma.
While the #NothingPhone2 is right around the corner, if you remember, I spotted this trademark, dubbed CMF By Nothing a couple of months ago.
Well, turns out it's a smartwatch.

While the BIS listing doesn’t provide further insights into the specifications or features of the Nothing smartwatch, it certainly ignites curiosity about the brand’s future plans. With founder Carl Pei’s recent purchase of the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and his comments on exploring the smartwatch category, the appearance of the BIS listing strengthens the possibility of Nothing venturing into wearables.
What Lies Ahead for Nothing’s Product Lineup?

While specifics about the Nothing smartwatch are currently scarce, the BIS certification serves as an indication that the brand has something exciting in the works. As enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling of the Phone (2), it is safe to say that further announcements from Nothing regarding their foray into the smartwatch category will be highly anticipated.
