The Nothing Phone (2) hits The States with a decent price tag
It’s been a year since Carl Pei launched the first Nothing Phone, and the device proved to be a worthy competitor in the smartphone market. It was good enough to get us excited about the next iteration, and it’s here! The Nothing Phone (2) just launched, and it has a decent price (via The Verge).
Nothing has a few devices under its belt, and it’s established this unique transparent aesthetic for them. This trend continues here, as the Nothing Phone (2) incorporates this look. In fact, the second iteration bears several similarities to its predecessor.
One of the most noticeable similarities is the Glyph Interface. It retains much the same shape. However, we see that it’s more segmented than what we saw with the Nothing Phone (1). Another notable change is with the recording indicator. Instead of being a dot on the back, it’s a little strip.
The Nothing Phone (2) finally launched, and it’s coming to The States
One bummer with the Nothing Phone (1) was the fact that it didn’t launch in the US market. That was unfortunate, as there were a lot of tech users in The States who were excited about trying out this phone. Well, not too long ago, Carl Pei confirmed that the Phone (2) was going to hit the US market, and he delivered on that promise.
The Nothing Phone (2) has a slightly larger 6.7-inch display that’s said to reach an impressive 1,600-nit peak brightness. That’s more than twice the 700-nit brightness of the last iteration.
Moving onto the internals, here’s where we see the biggest change for this phone. This phone uses the much more powerful Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor. It’s a radical departure from the mid-range Snapdragon 795 from the Nothing Phone (1).
Backing that up, there are a few RAM and storage configurations. The base model has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The next one has 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. Lastly, the most premium tier has 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.
As for the cameras, the Nothing Phone (2) has two 50MP cameras on the back. Up front, there’s a 32MP selfie camera. The company boasts improvements in the cameras and image processing, which can be expected.
As for the battery, it saw a 200mAh increase from the Nothing Phone (1)’s 4,500mAh to 4,700mAh. We’ll have to see how the more powerful processor impacts the battery life.
Now, let’s talk price
The price has been a pretty big talking point surrounding the Nothing Phone (2). Rumors pointed to this phone costing around $800 when it launches. However, the phone’s a bit cheaper than that.
The Nothing Phone (2) starts at $599 (£579 / €679) for the 8GB/128GB model. The 12GB/256GB model will run you back $699 (£629 / €729) and the 12GB/512GB variant costs $799 (£699 / €849).
That’s not a bad asking price for a phone running this powerful of a processor. It’s also a good price because that’s the price that Pixel Phones started at. However, the Pixel 8 is expected to cost $649 when it launches. This new price undercuts the Pixel phones, so Google might have some competition.
