It just received a MASSIVE update with camera improvements along with a lot of new stuff. Such a perfect phone now! Btw I don't quite agree with your assessment and verdict. The Phone2 is NOT a proper flagship. Even at launch it was more of a budget flagship and so compare it with phones in its price range and you'll realise how its still the best option. Its now dropped to just $420 here in India. No other phone delivers a better overall experience than the Phone(2) in this price range. Especially now that the camera processing is greatly improved with their TruLens implementation.
I disagree to your statement of not recommending the Nothing Phone (2) in 2024. It was recently on discount on Amazon AU official store at 848 AUD for the 12/256 GB variant. I think it offers a richer Android experience and a better $ value than the Google Pixel 8. The heat management in this phone is so nice and the Snapdragon chip overcomes the test of time by being so fluid. My Nothing Phone (2) just got an update yesterday and it is currently on OS version 2.5.5, which has the Ultra XDR mode and RAM Booster features. The camera UI is not too bad IMO. It allows you to do take all kinds of photos (50MP mode, RAW etc.) which should be enough for 99% of users. I really enjoy its Glyph Timer feature. I used it for timing my pair programming session with my colleague, my afternoon nap and reminding me to get back to my car before I get a parking fine 😂
@@Batsboem1why more ram ? I juste receive my nothing phone 2 with 12gb/512gb and WE dont need ram anymore, just IS good for 8gb/128gb for 5gb more allowed to ram for more memory to app
Nothing phone 2 user here and the phone has been nothing but amazing. Phone has gotten even better over time. Software is great, battery life is amazing, performance is still great and the camera has gotten even better. Can't wait to see what nothing does with the nothing 3
Hey bro my phone 2 is running on the latest nothing os 2.5.5 but whenever i receive an actual phone call my glyph lights arent in sync with the ringtone and all the lights light up even though in my ringtone all the lights arent even used, weird glitch let me know if this happens with you, but glyph lights in settings and for notifications work fine
I think they should keep their focus on the midrange, it is nice to have a manufacturer that actually seem to care about their midrange offerings and dont just hand it off to third party developers like many of the big names manufacturers do. Many produce a high end phone themselves with all the bells and whistles to drum up attention for their brand and let a third party make the budget phones. Tbh i do not think i have ever before seen a brand get so much coverage as the "Phone 2a" got being a budget option. So i think they are doing things right.
It's a good recommendation even in the 2024. Price is dropped. After the latest update 2.5.5, the camera and the processing is really good. Even at the launch, it's not a flagship. It is sort of a midrange flagship that always performs reliably.

Nothing OS 3 update is going to make the nothing phone 2 even better. We're finally getting a Photo Album! Cant stand using Google photos its horrible!
Would like a better, brighter display on the next one, hopefully 1440p too I would also like them to allow us to customize the amount of volume steps, I constantly have to choose between the audio being too loud and too quiet
One friend of mine is about to sell me his Nothing Phone 2 for 580 usd. He bought it a month ago in the US. Here in Argentina a Nothing Phone 2, doesnt exist. There's only one for 1499 usd for sale. Im coming from a Samsung A52, so i guess it will be a nice upgrade.
Carl Pei came out and said the Phone 3 won't come out till 2025. They want to spend more time refining things which is a bold move to go against the annual release cycle for phones.
is the haptic motor of the nothing phone 2a complained a lot by the users ? I had this phone, and for me it does quite better than XIAOMI, of course less better than iPhone, could you give me some examples of phones, besides IPHONE and Pixel, whose haptic motor is better in this price range, please ? Thanks a lot
Pixels by far for me offer the best haptics of any phone including iPhones. By no means are the haptics on a iPhone bad but Apple just chooses not to be as playful with how it's used throughout the OS as Google does with Pixel phones. Also I have a LG V60 and the haptics in there particularly when typing in Gboard feels as good to me if not better than my Pixel 8 Pro.
I had Nothing Phone (1) and I didn't buy Nothing Phone (2) for few reasons, 1 haptics I can't live with average haptics , 2. Lack of HDR support in Netflix and Prime Video and third speakers are average. I hope they fix these stuff with next phone.
from what i've read the reason behind this is that netflix allows HDR only if their app is preinstalled and it's against the company's idea of reducing bloatware to miminum
I would like to see them make an absolute killer flagship And maybe it's not popular but I would love to see them continue their trend of doing one flagshipphone every other year. Maybe they can be the brand that changes the narrative and gets rid of this yearly garbage.
I bought the nothing phone 2 at launch. Everything had been great and I've got no complaints.... Except for the camera. It's to be expected from the price but my note 20 ultra still does exceptionally better. Otherwise I'm super happy
Phone (3) is pretty locked in by now, so potentially these suggestions would be addressed by Phone (4) Though i would reccomend the Phone (2) after the recent update.

Hey, I have an iphone 7plus from the last 10 years, had other iphones before but now that 7plus is out of updates, I want to switch to Android, I saw that pixel phones out of the USA don’t have a number of features, I’m based in Germany, would you recommend the Nothing 2 ?
I almost got an np2 but ended up getting the pixel 7a only because i felt that with the 7a i was paying less for more rather than more for less with the np2 i got it on sale for 350 dollars at my local best buy and the 7a has a better size at 6.1 my experience with 6.7 is just too big im still rooting for nothing tho i love their idea with transparency ill wait and see what they do with np3
does anyone know about nothing chats? i understand it’s not on the play store, but does it come on the phone? that’s the dealbreaker for me, so if it’s still there im so down to switching to android from apple. and yes, i know about the security issues, i really could care less
I'm switching from ios after 4 years and Nothing is on the top of my list when it comes to android devices. Enjoyed ios while it was still good but the limited customizability and control over the device has gotten to me. Can't wait to be back on android. Going to binge your apps suggestions playlist again ha ha.
You're the first reviewer that i have seen mentioning the lower-quality haptic motor. Great review! Subscribed. I thought it was just my imagination that the haptic motor of my 2a feels inferior to my 5 years-old OnePlus 7 Pro. Granted, the 2a is a budget phone and i can live with that since IMO, they tuned the motor quite well. But it still feels like a downgrade, and i'm quite surprised to learn that it's the same in their flagship 2. I would say the same thing for the speakers too though. I think they are well-tuned, but the quality just doesn't feel that good. I wonder if it was the same case in the Phone 2 as well.
To me their biggest selling point is no bloatware. Nothing makes me more disgusted with a new phone than seeing facebook preinstalled and not able to be uninstalled. That is garbage.
Phone manufacturers "seem” to be listening to the requests of reviewers like yourself, of late, so hopefully your suggestions, which are fair and reasonable, will be addressed.
They need to improve in gaming mood also not only in haptic , camera and Fingerprint animation.. because these phone doesn't give 90 fps such as good in price as most probably others phone.same as like nothing Phone 2 budget give good performance attention in gaming mood also so nothing Phone 2 should be fixed in gaming 2 n adds some features in gaming mood as it doesn't have if we compare with others phone so nothing fix it plzz...plzz recommend to nothing
Is it worthy to get nothihg 2 right now with other latest model phones in the market??? I'm planning to buy, i can use a suggestion since sam didn't recommend.
Great vid but I disagree with the part when you talk about future improvements they need to make. I sincerely hope they don’t do anything on the camera side, simply because I feel there are so many people that do not give a damn about the camera I think I’m not the only one in thinking that TH-cam reviewers are so focused on camera performance and that is not what the average user wants. I’d rather have a flagship phone with average camera performance if it helps drive the price down. We have that with the Nothing 2.0 and I don’t want it to change cause I know if they do all you say they should on the camera, it will drive the price of the device up
As a regular Joe, I absolutely agree. All I need are decent photos, not studio quality. And the number one criteria our demographic has for purchasing a phone is affordability. If they're going to bump up cameras, they can, but they would need to then come out with model tiers and not just have one tier.
For me, it's criminal for OLED phones to still "only" have side print sensors. While it's a fact that those are faster than under screen sensors, anyone who says under screen is slow is just making a mountain out of a molehill. Side sensors are so prone to unintentional touches and unlocks that are more annoying than any millisecond slowness of under screen sensors.
Me watching this as I bought a Nothing 2 on Swappa for $450....hoping I didnt make a bad choice with the 3 coming. But I didnt wanna spend $700+ on a new phone.
Nothing Phone (2) has been a fantastic phone, but just with the bare minimum features. For example, great display but no HDR on Netflix, stereo speakers but no Dolby Atmos, no Spatial Audio either. They should get spatial audio soon as it does enhance listening experience Also I actually like the haptics of this phone. It's better than most I've used Also the fingerprint sensor is placed lower because of the UI. The notifications occupy the space on the lockscreen when you've added widgets on the lockscreen, so they had to place the sensor at the bottom
Worst phone in terms of repairablity, bought a nothing phone 4 months ago, motherboard crashed last week, the cost of new motherboard is 32k here in india and a new phone was for 29k in sale on 15th july. so basically my 4 months old phone is a piece of brick now. i have to get a new one.
And they just dropped a new update with bunch of improvements and ChatGPT integration

Even my 2022 Xiaomi 12x for $400 can film in 8k@24 so there's no excuse for such a low resolution nowadays
Great vid but I disagree with the part when you talk about future improvements they need to make.
I sincerely hope they don’t do anything on the camera side, simply because I feel there are so many people that do not give a damn about the camera
I think I’m not the only one in thinking that TH-cam reviewers are so focused on camera performance and that is not what the average user wants.
I’d rather have a flagship phone with average camera performance if it helps drive the price down. We have that with the Nothing 2.0 and I don’t want it to change cause I know if they do all you say they should on the camera, it will drive the price of the device up
As a regular Joe, I absolutely agree. All I need are decent photos, not studio quality. And the number one criteria our demographic has for purchasing a phone is affordability. If they're going to bump up cameras, they can, but they would need to then come out with model tiers and not just have one tier.
Side mounted fingerprint sensor is always better in term of response..
Its super fast even in entry level smartphones
For me, it's criminal for OLED phones to still "only" have side print sensors. While it's a fact that those are faster than under screen sensors, anyone who says under screen is slow is just making a mountain out of a molehill. Side sensors are so prone to unintentional touches and unlocks that are more annoying than any millisecond slowness of under screen sensors.
Me watching this as I bought a Nothing 2 on Swappa for $450....hoping I didnt make a bad choice with the 3 coming. But I didnt wanna spend $700+ on a new phone.
3 is not coming till 2025 lol
IR Blaster pls
Can u do video on nothing ear
Nothing Phone (2) has been a fantastic phone, but just with the bare minimum features. For example, great display but no HDR on Netflix, stereo speakers but no Dolby Atmos, no Spatial Audio either. They should get spatial audio soon as it does enhance listening experience
Also I actually like the haptics of this phone. It's better than most I've used
Also the fingerprint sensor is placed lower because of the UI. The notifications occupy the space on the lockscreen when you've added widgets on the lockscreen, so they had to place the sensor at the bottom
Im watching you on nothing 2 A its great Cellphone 😊😊😊😊😊
Fingerprint sensor higher i have been saying thate sunce phone1!!! Thx for saying that in the video!!!!
Worst phone in terms of repairablity, bought a nothing phone 4 months ago, motherboard crashed last week, the cost of new motherboard is 32k here in india and a new phone was for 29k in sale on 15th july. so basically my 4 months old phone is a piece of brick now. i have to get a new one.
Dafuq! How wasn't it covered under warranty?
And how did it drop to 29k price? Bank offers + Exchange?
@@fenyx2558 water damage
@@fenyx2558 without exchange just bank offers and price drop during July sale
@@fenyx2558 yes bank offers and price drop
I am using it i like it..
Me too switched from the pixel 7 no regrets
I cant wait for the phone 3 with hopefully a flagship processor and 60w+ charging
Does any one face battery draining issue. I'm getting only around 6hrs of SOT.
Well it's a cheapie garbage phone
As opposed to just plain 'unique'...
ip68 instead of ip54
200% agree with you
