Nothing Phone (2) with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC launched in India at ₹44,999

The anticipation for the Phone (2) release has been off the charts, and now the wait is finally over. Nothing has officially unveiled the Phone (2), bringing many improvements compared to its predecessor. The Phone (2) may appear similar to the Phone (1), but it now features a rounded back, providing a more comfortable grip.

The Glyph interface has also been updated, consisting of 11 segmented LED strips with 33 LED lighting zones, which brings new possibilities for notifications, such as volume control and timer indicators. Users can assign specific apps to the top left LED for Essential Glyph notifications, which will remain lit until the corresponding notification is cleared from the notification menu.

The Phone (2) boasts a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 1-120Hz refresh rate. The centred punch hole cutout houses a 32MP front-facing camera equipped with a Sony IMX615 sensor, enabling support for 1080p video recording at 60fps. On the rear, the primary camera now incorporates a Sony IMX890 sensor with 50MP resolution, accompanied by OIS and EIS image stabilization, as well as updated HDR and Motion Capture modes. The 50MP ultrawide camera retains the same Samsung JN1 sensor as its predecessor but gains Advanced HDR capabilities.

The Phone (2) is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which replaces the SD 778G+ found in the Phone (1). The Phone (2) now boasts an upgraded battery capacity of 4700 mAh and an increase in wired charging speeds to 45W, while the wireless charging capabilities remain at 15W.

In terms of software, the Phone (2) operates on Nothing OS 2.0, which is built on Android 13. This software update brings a range of new features, including innovative widgets, customizable theme colours, enhanced folder layouts, and visually appealing illustrated covers. The Nothing Phone (2) will be available for sale from July 21 in white and dark grey colour options and is priced at ₹44,999 for the 8/128GB variant, ₹49,999 for the 12/256GB variant, and ₹54,999 for the 12/512GB variant.

Nothing Phone (2) – All Set to Dazzle the World on July 11

Nothing, a company led by the visionary Carl Pei, is preparing to unveil its highly anticipated second smartphone, the Nothing Phone (2), in India and worldwide, including the esteemed United States market, on July 11. Serving as the successor to the company’s successful debut with the Phone (1), this new device is poised to captivate consumers.

The Nothing Phone (2) is anticipated to retain the distinctive design elements of its predecessor, boasting a transparent back panel and a mesmerizing Glyph interface. After building anticipation through teasers, the company has finally confirmed the long-awaited launch date, solidifying the excitement surrounding this upcoming release.

Earlier this month, Manu Sharma, the esteemed Vice President and General Manager of Nothing India, announced that the Nothing Phone (2) manufacturing would take place within India. The grand unveiling of the Nothing Phone (2) is scheduled for July 11 at 8:30 PM IST, and, akin to its predecessor, the event will be conducted online, inviting tech enthusiasts from around the globe to witness this momentous occasion.

While the official launch of the Nothing Phone (2) is still weeks away, some specifications of the device have already surfaced online through leaks. The Nothing Phone (2) is anticipated to showcase a generously sized 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display on its front, captivating users with its immersive visual experience. Furthermore, the device has been confirmed to be powered by the formidable Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset and may offer a substantial 12GB of RAM, ensuring impressive performance capabilities.

In terms of endurance, the Nothing Phone (2) is projected to be equipped with a robust 4,700mAh battery, supporting fast charging for added convenience. Notably, this device is slated to receive three years of Android updates and an impressive four years of security updates, promising a future-proof experience. Further details regarding the device, such as its pricing and availability in the Indian market, are expected to be unveiled in the forthcoming weeks, leaving enthusiasts eager to uncover the complete picture of this remarkable smartphone.

Nothing Phone (2) will be powered by Snapdragon 8 series SoC

The Mobile World Congress is underway in Barcelona right now with a number of new developments in the world of smartphones being announced left and right. It was OnePlus that unveiled its OnePlus 11 Concept device which made waves on the internet. TECNO also announced its entry into the foldable phone market with PHANTOM V Fold. While smartphone leaders around the world brought their A-game revealing hardware updates to their devices, Nothing went a different route and `used MWC as an avenue to meet with vendors and other big names in the industry.

Nothing Phone (2) with Snapdragon 8 series SoC

Nothing’s Carl Pei announced at the Mobile World Congress that the Nothing Phone (2) will sport a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series processor. This will mark the company’s first device to feature the flagship-level SoC as the Nothing Phone (1) rocked the midrange Snapdragon 778+ chipset. During the same announcement, Nothing CEO Carl Pei also revealed that the company would be launching a new product next month. Given Nothing’s track record, we won’t be surprised if it’s a new TWS.

Along with a better chipset, the Nothing Phone (2) will be getting a proper release in the US this time around, something that was not done for its predecessor. Carl shared that the US market was the company’s top priority going forward. The Nothing Phone (2) should arrive sometime late in 2023. During his conversation at the MWC, the Nothing CEO also talked about the OnePlus 11 Concept phone mentioning the device’s illuminated cooling liquid. Carl Pei also acknowledged a small company named UniHertz that has developed a ‘carbon copy’ of the Nothing Phone (1) stating he is interested in checking that device out. However, when it comes to the upcoming Nothing Phone (2), I am convinced it won’t feature the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 as the company would have chosen to reveal that right away. I believe the company will go for the 8+ Gen 1 platform or lower to keep the prices competitive.
