Evolution Rather Than Revolution: Introducing the Nothing Phone 2

If you’re expecting a revolutionary shift from the quirky Nothing Phone 1 with its cheeky yet perhaps not-so-useful Glyph pattern, you might want to sit down. The Nothing Phone 2 has landed, and it’s more of an evolution than a revolution.

What’s New?

The Phone 2 is a refined version of its predecessor, with a similar form but a slightly softer backside. The Glyph pattern has been tweaked, and you can now keep track of your timers or Uber arrival with the help of the lights.

Hardware Upgrades

While the first Phone packed mid-range specs in a luxurious shell, the Phone 2 has some better stuff inside. It’s powered by a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip, and sports a 6.7-inch screen with a refresh rate varying between 1 and 120 Hz. The brightness hits 1000 nits, peaking at 1600 nits. The main camera is a 50-megapixel Sony IMX890 sensor, and both the wide-angle and selfie cameras have 50 and 32 megapixels, respectively.

A Few Drawbacks

Unfortunately, the phone only has an IP54 certification.

Pricing and Availability

The price tag is slightly higher than the Phone 1, but not outrageously so. The 8 GB/128 GB variant costs 7490 kronor, the 12 GB/256 GB variant is priced at 8490, and the 12 GB/512 GB variant will set you back 9990 kronor. The phone is available in dark grey and white.

The Art Conclusion

In the world of tech, sometimes it’s not about reinventing the wheel, but rather refining it. The Nothing Phone 2 might not be a revolution, but its evolution brings a better user experience and upgraded specs. So, if you’re looking for a revolution, you might want to keep looking. But if evolution is your game, the Nothing Phone 2 could be your name.

Now here’s a rap to end this recap,

Nothing Phone 2, it’s not brand new,
Just a refined version of the previous crew,
With a better chip and a brighter view,
It might just be the right phone for you.
