The Nothing Phone (2a) is increasingly being talked about and we already have a lot of information to get our heads around. Here is everything we know about this smartphone (design, technical sheet, release date, price, etc.).
Nothing is a brand that is trying to do well in the difficult smartphone market. After releasing two rather successful models, the manufacturer is also working on a device at a more affordable price to reach a wider audience. This is how we hear about a Nothing Phone (2a).
So as not to lose track, here is a quick summary of everything we know about the Nothing Phone (2a) so far.
Why a Nothing Phone (2a)?
The Nothing Phone (2a) would be the third smartphone from the brand co-founded by Carl Pei (ex-OnePlus), after the Phone (1) and the Phone (2). A prioriit could be summed up in a simple idea: do better than 1 while being cheaper than 2. How?
The solution would not be surprising: the Nothing Phone (2a) would make a few concessions here and there to reduce the price while preserving a good user experience. Enough to recall the strategy pursued by Google with its Pixel A, less expensive than the flagship models – and which could also be serious competitors to the Phone (2a).
Design and technical sheet of the Nothing Phone (2a)
Several pieces of information are already circulating on the Nothing Phone (2a). So, in terms of design, we should expect the smartphone to keep a transparent back. This is one of the trademarks of the models already launched by the manufacturer.
Some design changes
On the other hand, we would find a little fewer LEDs at the back. Nothing, however, continues to highlight its Glyph system which allows, among other things, to personalize light animations according to incoming alerts and notifications.
The Nothing Phone (2a) would still benefit from the Glyph, but it would be less ambitious. Integrating fewer LEDs should allow the brand to save money, and therefore offer the smartphone at a more attractive price.
Still at the rear, another change should be noticed: the location of the cameras. The Nothing Phone (2a) would opt for a central positioning of its two photo sensors while they were located on the left on the back of the Nothing Phone (1) and Nothing Phone (2).
Some technical details
Also note that certain details concerning the technical sheet of the Nothing Phone (2a) have also surfaced on the web. We would therefore have to prepare for a 6.7-inch Oled screen with a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. The panel would be pierced with a punch.
Inside the smartphone, we would find a Dimensity 7200 from MediaTek, a chip used to the mid-range. On the photo side, the two sensors at the rear would each be entitled to a definition of 50 Mpx. The two modules would also be supplied by Samsung: S5KGN9 for the main sensor (1/1.5 inch and 1 µm pixels) and S5KJN1 for the ultra wide-angle (1/2.76 inch and 0.64 pixels). µm). For selfies, Sony would provide the hardware with a 32 Mpx IMX615 sensor.
