Purposefully designed from the inside out, Phone (2) brings you new ways to interact with a smartphone. Allowing you to feel more present and focused when it matters most. After the radically imaginative design of Phone (1) sent shockwaves through the smartphone market, Nothing are back to improve, enhance and improve further. They’ve updated their inventive light-based Glyph interface, introduced the seamless Nothing OS 2.0 operating system, upgraded its photographic capabilities, and more. They’re changing the game again, like nothing else.
Re-imagined Glyph interface
For a world craving less screen-time, Nothing have created the Glyph Interface. Assign different light and sound sequences for each of your contacts and notification types and be one step ahead of who’s getting in touch. Refer to individual Glyph segments for key information and progress tracking. Use the lights as a countdown timer, a battery metre indicator, a volume checker and your very own portable ring light. Essential Notifications let you focus while being available only to those who matter most. And you can create your very own Glyph ringtones.
Premium design
From hardware to software, Phone (2) is designed to deliver a premium experience. With its gently curved pillow-glass back, elevated textures, and extra segmented Glyphs, Phone (2) is a designer’s dream. And, with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, Phone (2) boasts an 80% improvement on performance over its predecessor.
Nothing OS 2.0
With an emphasis on functional customisation, Nothing OS 2.0 allows interactions with your smartphone to be more intentional and mindful. It’s powerfully efficient, but refreshingly simple. The home and lock screen utility has been re-designed so you can shortcut to apps without getting distracted. Customise everything from app labels and grid design to widget size and colour themes. and you can access information from apps like media player and Nothing X directly from your home screen. It’s your phone, your way, for a faster, more intuitive experience.
Advanced camera, vivid video
Phone (2) effortlessly captures real life as it’s happening. The 32MP front sensor is bigger and better (than Phone (1)), and the camera’s internal software is entirely upgraded, with advanced algorithms that make photos and videos more dynamically accurate than ever. With Advanced HDR, it can detect stronger contrasts between dark and light, for impeccable clarity and true-to-life photography. And Night Mode reduces noise and delivers clear-as-day shots at any hour.
Create moving masterpieces in 4k 60fps on the main rear camera too. For high-action scenes, turn on Action Mode and it works alongside in-built dual stabilisation for sensationally smooth results when you’re on the move.
Beautiful, energy efficient display
Bigger and brighter than the previous gen, Phone (2) has a 6.7” OLED display with 1600 nit peak brightness. And it can intuitively adapt its 120Hz refresh rate to preserve power when you're not on your phone. It’s a killer display that doesn’t murder battery life.
A battery that keeps going
With a 4,700 mAh battery, Phone (2) charges fully in just 55 minutes. And lasts up to 22.5 hours. It’s compatible with 15W Qi wireless charging, and also doubles as a 5W wireless charger so you can power accessories like Ear (2)- (sold separately) on-the-go.
5G capability
The Nothing Phone’s future-proofed 5G modem will enable you to still use 4G, however depending on your network provider, you'll experience incredible speeds and better quality streaming video, along with more reliable network connections when you're in crowded places - especially during peak times.
What is SIM free?
You'll receive an unlocked device, so there’s no requirement to commit to any network, leaving you free to decide which SIM card/network to use. This gives you the opportunity to find the most suitable plan, whether that’s contract or pay-as-you-go, throughout the lifetime of the phone.
Top tip: as this mobile phone is supplied SIM-free and unlocked, you have access to SIM-only deals – these usually offer far better value for money – especially for all-important data plans.
You also have the option to add a foreign SIM card, so you can use this device overseas for less as well.
Additional information: manufacturers often update their Operating System (OS) software over the course of a device’s lifespan – this means that your product might ship with a more advanced OS than specified.
