Amazon's website appears to be stabilizing after experiencing technical issues that kept users from logging in and prevented prices from displaying correctly. DownDetector reported a spike of outage reports around 2PM ET, but as of 5:56PM ET, user complaints have fallen significantly.
The Amazon.com homepage currently loads, and Engadgets staff have been able to load product pages and view prices without any problems. During the peak of the site's issues, neither were loading consistently, and clicking through in some cases showed an error page with text that says "Sorry, something went wrong on our end." Users also reported being unable to log into their accounts.
"We're sorry that some customers may be experiencing issues while shopping," Amazon said in a statement to Engadget. "We appreciate customers' patience as we work to resolve the issue." The company shared a similar sentiment with customers on X, confirming that it's aware there's a problem and acknowledging that its working on a fix.

And like Nothing's previous devices, they seem like meaningful departures from what the company has tried in the past.
The Nothing 4a Pro represents the biggest change. Gone is the translucent back meant to offer a pseudo-glimpse into the internals of the phone, and in its place is a metal unibody design in black, silver or pink, and Nothing's Glyph Matrix interface, now even larger and brighter than it was on the Phone 3. Nothing describes the Phone 4a Pro as its slimmest phone ever, and on some level its reminiscent of the iPhone 17 Pro, but the changes in design and materials also support improvements to durability (the phone is rated for IP65 water resistance) and cooling.
