Nothing has launched its second flagship smartphone the Nothing Phone (2) in India, which is the successor of Phone (1), as they promised. It has a 6.7-inch FHD+ LTPO OLED screen with 1-120Hz refresh rate, up to 1600 nits peak brightness, Gorilla Glass protection, and has In-display fingerprint scanner.
It runs on the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor with up to 12GB of RAM, up to 512GB UFS 3.1 storage, and is based on Android 13 with Nothing OS 2.0 with 3 Android OS updates and 4 years of security patches every 2 months, same as the Phone (1). In Nothing OS 2.0, you can customize grid design, widget size, and color themes, and has new folder layouts and illustrated covers.
The arrangement of LEDs for the glyph on the back is reminiscent of Phone (1), but in Phone (2), the central area features six distinct sections, resulting in a total of 33 addressable LED lighting zones, a notable increase compared to the 12 zones found in Phone (1). Notably, the top right section alone offers 16 customizable lighting zones. Additionally, Phone (2) features a glyph composer, enabling users to create personalized ringtones.
Phone (2) showcases a softly curved, pillowed glass back and introduces a thinner midframe constructed entirely from 100% recycled aluminum.
