Nothing says an Essential Space premium tier could be in the cards in the future
Nothing may give Essential Space a premium tier once it offers more value.
- Nothing has confirmed that there are no plans to charge for Essential Space at the moment.
- A premium tier offering could come down the road.
- The company says Essential Space will have to offer substantial value before it’ll consider charging.
Nothing’s Essential Space has been around since the launch of the Phone 3a series. It’s a free AI-powered tool that creates reminders and does other productivity-based functions with screenshots or voice memos. There was fear that Nothing could start charging for this feature, but Nothing has now put those fears to rest in a new interview.
In an APK teardown back in March, we discovered several strings of code related to a “free trial” and “AI credits.” While it doesn’t outright state that there will be a paid service, one could assume that a free trial would be paired with a paid service. A string referencing a claim price of $120 was also found sitting in the Essential Space app, suggesting that could be the cost of a yearly or lifetime subscription.
