Nothing Phone 2 details have been teased by the UK startup, hinting at launch timelines and its design. Meanwhile, key specifications have also been shared by tipsters. The phone has also reportedly bagged a BIS certification, indicating that it is headed to India. Nothing CEO Carl Pei began teasing details of the company’s upcoming smartphone, well before the firm announced its continued partnership with chipmaker Qualcomm at MWC 2023.

After a recent teaser showing off a part of the smartphone and a clearer launch timeline, the phone’s specifications have leaked in detail, giving us plenty more details about the upcoming smartphone, including the variants that it is expected to arrive in.

Tipster Sunary Gourkhede (@Tech_Wallah) has shared two tweets, including an artist’s render of the Nothing Phone 2. The render comes from Twitter user Ben Geskin, who previously created a mockup of the image based on a recent tweet by the brand, which also revealed a portion of the upcoming device.

It is worth noting that the image gives us a vague idea about how the phone would look and isn’t a leaked image or a render based on leaked specifications either.

Nothing Phone (2) is launching this summer, the company announced last week alongside a tiny glimpse of the highly anticipated phone. The company hasn’t revealed much other than an accidental leak of its chipset months ago, but there are new leaks revealing its alleged specifications, and how it’ll look. The alleged specs leak (by a tipster with no authenticated record of leaks though) suggests the phone will get satellite connectivity much like the iPhone 14 series.

Nothing Phone (2) Design (Expected)

The Nothing Phone (1) stood out for its unique and flashy design with the transparent back and white LEDs, which the company calls the ‘Glyph Interface. A render of the Nothing Phone (2) shared by Ben Geskin shows that there’s hardly any difference in terms of design.

The placement of the LEDs are the same with a very minor change on the top right corner of the rear panel but it’s something you’ll most likely miss. The image also shows the same iPhone 12-like flat edges on the Nothing Phone (2).

A concept design of the Nothing Phone (2) also showed a similar design with one notable change which is the camera module. The iPhone XS-like vertical camera module has been replaced by a triangle-like design to house three cameras.

Another change we might see is the punch-hole camera moving to the centre of the screen and not the left corner.

Nothing Phone (2) specifications

Nothing has so far confirmed only the chipset of the Phone (2) which is going to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. This also confirms that the Nothing Phone (2) will be a premium offering from the Carl Pei-founded startup. As for the rest of the specifications, here’s what tipster @Tech_Wallah shared on Twitter.

The Nothing Phone (2) is expected to feature a 6.55-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. The smartphone is said to sport a triple-camera setup with a 50MP OIS primary camera. According to the leak, the Nothing Phone (2) will launch in three variants of 8GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB.The smartphone is also said to pack a 5,000mAh battery with fast charging support, and wireless charging as well.

On the software front, the Nothing Phone (2) will run Android 13 with NothingS 1.5 layered on top.Connectivity options on the Nothing Phone(2) are said to be NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 5G support, and satellite communication.

While Nothing has confirmed the launch timeline of the Phone (2), there’s no launch date yet. Also, the Nothing Phone (2) will debut in the US but it is expected to launch in India as well.

The above information falls in line with a previous report about leaked information about the same device. However, since all of this comes from an unofficial source, we do advise our readers to take this information with a pinch of salt.

The device as per our last report is said to take place during the UK summer, which means it could be launched between July and September, but Nothing has yet to specify a launch date for the smartphone.

Faqs

1) How is the design of Nothing Phone (2)?

Ans) In terms of design, the Nothing Phone 2 is expected to maintain the company’s Glyph Interface for notifications as on the outgoing Phone 1. The rear and front panels will be made of glass with an aluminium frame sandwiched in between. The device is tipped to pack a 5,000mAh battery and come with support for fast charging. There’s no indication of both wireless charging or an IP rating at this point, which turned out to be segment-leading features for the Nothing Phone 1 in our review. However, the Phone 2 is expected to retain the Phone 1’s stereo speakers and two mics.

2) What are the variants of Nothing Phone (2) ?

Ans) According to the tipster, the upcoming handset will be available in three variants.
The base variant will have 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The second variant will have 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, with the top-of-the-line variant said to feature 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. These appear similar to the currently availableNothing Phone 1 variants.

3) What are the specifications of Nothing Phone (2)?

Ans) The tipster also claims that the Nothing Phone 2 will sport a 6.55-inch full-HD+
AMOLED panel with a 120Hz screen refresh rate and will also have an embedded fingerprint reader. A Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC will power the phone, according to Gourkhede. The device will reportedly come with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage.

We can expect a 50-megapixel primary camera and two other cameras to be a part of the rear camera setup. The phone is tipped to support NFC, WiFi, Bluetooth, 5G radios and also Satellite connectivity, which could work like the Emergency SOS-like feature found on the iPhone 14 series. However, the tipster could simply be referring to regular global positioning systems (GPS) that feature on every smartphone.
