Nothing Phone (2): What’s known so far

Gradually, Nothing is disclosing the specifications of the upcoming Nothing Phone (2). The company has officially announced that the device will boast a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen. Speculation suggests that this display might support an FHD+ resolution along with a refresh rate of 120Hz.

Another confirmed detail is that the Nothing Phone (2) will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset. Previous sightings on Geekbench revealed that the device will come equipped with 12 GB of RAM and will operate on Android 13.

For a streamlined and minimalist user experience, the phone will feature Nothing OS 2.0, which will be overlaid on top of the Android operating system. Nothing has committed to providing three major Android OS upgrades and three years of security updates for the Phone (2).

The Nothing Phone (2) will be equipped with a 4,700mAh battery, as confirmed by the brand. However, information about the fast charging capabilities remains undisclosed. Additionally, specific details regarding the camera setup of the Nothing Phone (2) are yet to be revealed. The device is made of sustainable materials and has an aluminium frame.

In related news, a recent leak revealed the design of the Phone (2) through CAD renders. However, shortly after the images surfaced, Nothing founder and CEO, Carl Pei, took to Twitter and referred to them as “fake.” This tweet strongly suggests that the leaked images do not accurately represent the actual design of the Phone (2).

Nothing Phone (2): Expected Price

Nothing Phone (2)

The Nothing Phone (2) is expected to be priced around Rs 40,000 in India and it will likely be seen competing with the likes of the OnePlus 11R and Pixel 7a. The company itself has asserted that its new offering will be competing with best flagship phones in the market and the Nothing Phone (2) will have premium features too.

This basically means that the price will be much higher than the previous model. To recall, the Nothing Phone (1) was announced in India with a starting price of Rs 32,999 and so, the new one is expected to cost around Rs 40,000 and this price is based on the specifications that the company has revealed.

Do keep in mind that Nothing is still a new company and this will be its second generation phone. Hence, it isn’t expected to increase the price by a very big margin.

The company wants to offer a premium experience to users at an affordable price, which is something that OnePlus also aimed for when it first came to India. It remains to be seen what will be the pricing strategy for the new Nothing phone and how the company plans to convince users to buy it.
