Nothing Phone (2) at a Glance

Nothing Phone (2) is a Nothing phone that reached the market on 2023-07-11. It runs on the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 with 8GB of RAM, and storage comes in 3 sizes (128GB, 256GB, 512GB). Our estimated street price sits between $539 and $659, which puts it in the mid-range bracket.

Display

The screen is listed as 6.7" LTPO AMOLED, 120Hz, 1080x2412. At 6.7 inches it is a large panel that favours video, reading and split-screen work over one-handed use. A 120Hz refresh rate makes scrolling, animations and gaming look clearly smoother than on a standard 60Hz screen.

Performance and Storage

Performance comes from the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. 8GB of RAM is plenty for everyday multitasking and most games. Because there are several storage options (128GB, 256GB, 512GB), it is worth deciding how much you really need: photos, 4K video and downloaded games fill space quickly, and this phone's storage cannot be assumed to be expandable unless the spec says so.

Cameras

On the back, the camera setup is 50MP main + 50MP ultrawide, a 2-lens arrangement. Two lenses typically cover a main view and a wider angle, which handles most everyday shots. The front camera is 32MP, which is the one that matters for selfies and video calls.

Battery and Charging

Battery life is described as 4700mAh. A 4700mAh cell is typical for a phone of this size. Charging is 45W wired, 15W wireless; a 45W wired rate is quicker than the slow 18-20W bricks older phones shipped with.

Software and Build

It ships with Android 13, Nothing OS 2.0. The build is Aluminum frame, transparent glass back with Glyph LEDs, IP54. The IP54 rating describes dust and water resistance: the first digit covers dust, the second covers water, and neither guarantees protection from every kind of liquid or damage over time.

Who It Suits

This bracket suits buyers who want most of the flagship experience while keeping an eye on cost; compare the camera and charging details against the premium alternatives before deciding. Read the full Nothing Phone (2) verdict for how it behaves in real use.
