“Following the success of Phone (2a), which was a breath of fresh air in its market segment and became our best-selling smartphone, we’re thrilled to introduce Phone (2a) Plus. This upgraded variant features a world-exclusive processor, an improved front camera, and a new metallic design. With Phone (3) launching in 2025, Phone (2a) Plus is for those who are excited about Phone (2a) but are seeking even higher performance,” <\/em>said Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Design<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Phone (2a) Plus introduces two new colors for Nothing smartphones: metallic Grey and an updated Black. Reminiscent of machinery, the metallic finish offers a new premium expression of Nothing\u2019s design language while highlighting the cutting-edge upgrades of Phone (2a) Plus.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An inherited design story from Phone (2a), Phone (2a) Plus has been crafted at the intersection of engineering and artistry. By integrating components into the phone\u2019s exterior, we created an anthropomorphic appearance whereby the cameras inside the NFC coil represent two eyes in front of a brain-like hub of intelligence and communication. The circular grid system design centralizes the camera, ensuring a coherent and endearing appearance that makes Phone (2a) Plus another instant icon.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The MediaTek Dimensity 7350 Pro 5G processor, a world exclusive to Nothing, powers the Phone (2a) Plus. This chipset, designed to emphasize entertainment, is ideal for gamers. It uses advanced TSMC 4 nm Gen 2 technology, with eight cores running up to 3.0 GHz \u2013 nearly 10% faster CPU than Phone (2a), and is supported by an ARM Mali-G610 MC4 GPU clocking at 1.3 GHz, 30% faster when gaming than Phone (2a). The high performance is maintained by Nothing\u2019s Smart Clean Technology, which clears unused system files, NTFS optimizations for fast file transfers, and RAM Booster, providing up to 20 GB of adequate RAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It boasts a large light-absorbing 50 MP primary sensor with an f\/1.88 lens, an ultra-wide 50 MP sensor with a 114\u00ba field of view, and now, a 50 MP front camera for superstar selfies and better quality video calling. All three sensors support direct 50 MP photo output, HDR photo capture, and 4K video recording. The primary camera comes alive in low-light conditions, with night shots appearing as detailed and vibrant as in the day. Record stunning 4K video with the primary camera, supported by Optical Image Stabilisation, Electric Image Stabilisation, and Action Mode for smooth footage when people can\u2019t stand still.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing combines elite hardware with state-of-the-art software to ensure Phone (2a) Plus is the whole picture. Our TrueLens Engine with AI Vivid Mode uses advanced algorithms to produce life-like photos bursting with color and detail. The Ultra XDR feature, co-developed with Google, enhances lighting in challenging conditions by adjusting pixel brightness up to 5 times, ensuring true-to-life images every time you press the button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing OS \/ AI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With Nothing OS 2.6, Nothing has expanded its library with even more functional widgets for mindful interactions on your home and lock screens. These widgets are complete with swipeable views and animations for more information.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following its ChatGPT integrations earlier in the year, Nothing has developed the News Reporter widget. This daily digest leverages AI technology to aggregate daily news in a simple and intuitive format. Nothing CFO Tim Holbrow reads it aloud. It is available on all Nothing smartphones through the Nothing Widgets app on the Google Play Store.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The widget provides curated news from eight selectable genres, including business, entertainment, general, health, science, sports, and technology. The AI system then summarises news articles from English-language news sources based on category and converts them to audio. Each story summary lasts 1 minute, with a total of 8 stories per day. Every morning (local time relative), the widget automatically refreshes with a new bank of stories.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike most devices in this category, Phone (2a) Plus comes with Android 14 out of the box and an impressive three years of software updates and four years of security updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Display<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Phone (2a) Plus retains the thinnest bezels in Nothing\u2019s smartphone line-up, measuring just 2.1 mm symmetrically on all four screen sides. This achievement results in an impressive screen-to-body ratio of 91.65%, made possible by combining a flexible panel with structural engineering. The display also boasts a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glyph Interface<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Phone (2a) Plus retains the iconic Glyph Interface on the back of the phone. This is a new way to interact with a smartphone that encourages people to put their screens down and refer to light and sound patterns for crucial information. The focused Glyph Interface holds on to all Phone (2a) capabilities, including the Glyph Timer and Glyph Progress. It utilizes third-party integrations, illuminating the distinct new metallic aesthetic of Phone (2a) Plus.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
