A Premium Design & Build
Already, Nothing has built iconic status with its flagship smartphones. With its gently curved pillowed glass back on Phone (2), sleek thin midframe, higher-resolution textures, and refined components, it is Nothing’s proudest design story so far. Premium is more than just materials. It’s how something looks, how long it lasts, and how it makes you feel. An entire experience. Phone (2) is designed to deliver just that from hardware to software. The front of the handset is dominated by an upper-centered punch-hole HD+ screen.
The back is made of glass with flashing light strips that drew so much attention to the Nothing Phone 1. The body frame is made of Aluminum. It is not surprising that based on its muscular build, the phone measures 162.1 x 76.4 x 8.6 mm and weighs 201g. To establish its status as a premium phone, Nothing decided on White and Colour Gray colours for its Phone (2) model.
The dual SIM handset has an IP54 rating- splash, water and dust resistant. Notable on the smartphone is the flashing light strips. There are multiple LED lights on the back (notifications, charging progress, camera fill light). If the light strip is blinking red light on the back, it is a video recording indicator. These light strips help reduce your screen time as you focus on productive work.
Immersive Display
Nothing Phone (2) comes along with a large, punch hole, 6.7-inch LTPO OLED, 1B colors, 120Hz, HDR10+, 1600 nits (HBM), 1600 nits (peak) display. A high refresh rate of 120Hz and 1600 nits brightness, in addition to 1080 x 2412 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~394 ppi density) resolution. The peak brightness is way better at 1,600 nits compared to 1,200 nits in Phone 1. With LTPO, Phone (2) can intuitively adapt its 120 Hz refresh rate to preserve power when you’re not on your phone. A killer display that doesn’t murder battery life.
High-Performance Camera Package
Phone (2) effortlessly captures real life as it’s happening. With an 18-bit Image Signal Processor (ISP), it is capable of capturing 4,000 times more camera data than Phone (1). Allowing us to deliver advanced new algorithms that make photos and videos more dynamically accurate than ever.
Main Camera
Nothing has upgraded the 50 MP main + 50 MP ultra-wide camera with smart tuning effects to make Phone (2) a front-runner. Including a new Motion Capture 2.0 algorithm that uses AI technology to accurately detect moving subjects in real time. And 2X Super-Res Zoom that can preserve any scene’s finest details.
Video Recording: Clear as crystal, steady as a rock. Create moving masterpieces in 4K@60fps on the main rear camera. For high-action scenes, turn on Action Mode. Works alongside in-built dual stabilization for sensationally smooth results when you’re on the move.
Selfie Camera
Nothing packed the front camera a bigger 32 MP sensor for picture-perfect portraits, which is two times more than Phone (1). It brings every colour, hue and expression to life and you in your best light.
Get the perfect shot with Advanced HDR. Now with 3 times more data, Advanced HDR captures 8 frames with different levels of exposure in the RAW domain. Selects the best details in each frame and fuses a final image that captures the most true-to-life result. It works with Night Mode to reduce noise and deliver clear-as-day shots at any hour.
