OTA updates are most likely going to work in most of the devices bought at our website and they should not change system sate ex. removing multi-language and google apps.

However, there are devices where OTA will not work, we usually inform about it on the product page, in the "ROM" section. If you'll not be able to make automatic updates, you may always try to make manual system update, which may require some skills or tools (ex. ADB) installed on your computer. It may also remove system customisations installed before ex. multi-language support. For more info you may ask us a question from product page.

NFC will most likely work on the most of the devices bought on our website. 

Exception are some, but not all, devices sold with unlocked bootloader, due to Global rom installation ex. Xiaomi. Some other devices with Global rom installed on original rom, and unlocked bootloader shouldn't have problems with NFC payments - ex. Realme devices. Root can also cause NFC banking applications not work, but our store in current time don't sell rooted devices at all (state for January 2024).

If you have doubts if your device will have NFC payments working you should ask us every time by product questions available at product page or checks questions of the other customers at the bottom of the product page.

#WithNothing

Judge for yourself. Here’s what our users have captured on Phone (2a).

For. You.

Nothing OS delivers the best of Android with a fast and smooth experience rooted in utility and functional customisation.

Powered by Android 14

Experience the latest innovations through fresh eyes. With 3 years of major Android updates and 4 years of security updates.

Functional customisation

Streamline your smartphone use with personalisation options that make sense to you. For a faster and more intuitive experience. Whether that’s a monochromatic theme that mutes the distracting nature of colourful branded icons or removing app labels for a less cluttered appearance - Nothing OS puts you in control of your smartphone navigation.

Nothing Widgets

Little windows into your apps that let you do more directly from your home and lock screen. With Nothing OS 2.5, we’ve expanded our library with even more Nothing-designed widgets, with swipeable views and animations for more levels of information and interactions.

Fast and smooth

Committed to providing a fast and smooth user experience above all else, we've continued to optimise our software for Phone (2a). The result is app opening speeds that are up to twice as fast as those of Phone (1), while refining over 500 transitions and animations.

Smart. Talk. 

Ask, listen and learn from ChatGPT on-the-go. A first-of-its-kind integration, made for your Nothing ecosystem. Only on Nothing earbuds when connected to a Nothing phone. Compatible with Phone (1), Phone (2) and Phone (2a).

Voice control 

Use your voice to access ChatGPT on Ear and Ear (a), wherever you are. Setup via the Nothing X app. Coming soon to Ear (1), Ear (2) and Ear (stick). 

Bespoke Nothing Widgets

Get the answers you need faster, and at your fingertips. Text, voice or image search right from your home screen.

So. Fresh.

Built on a canvas of transparency, we're unlocking new design possibilities by fusing human warmth with innovative engineering.

Innovation personified

By integrating a phone's components into its external design, we showcase key functions in new and innovative ways. With Phone (2a), by placing the cameras inside the NFC coil, we create a new product icon: the eyes. Behind these is the hub of intelligence that powers the phone, much like a brain. This area is also where Phone (2a) communicates with the outside world. The camera captures visual information, the Glyph Interface transmits data through visuals and audio, and the NFC coil sends and receives digital information. Elements are precisely positioned using a circular grid system. Extends all the way to the edge of the phone to create more rounded corners. Giving a coherent and softer overall look and feel.

The art of engineering

To further captivate interest, we've created a sense of symmetrical imbalance where the lower part of Phone (2a) is purposefully designed to disrupt the flow of the top. Here, the phone houses the battery, additional internal components, and a set of flexible printed circuits connecting the motherboard to the display, SIM card and USB type C port. This part was designed drawing inspiration from Massimo Vignelli's New York subway map — a graphical exercise that turned an intricate chart into something simple and elegant. Turns out the complexity of routing trains is not so different from routing electronics.

Pushing boundaries

Phone (2a) features an industry first: the 90° infinity back cover. Adds a dynamic new dimension to our iconic transparent design whilst enforcing the structural rigidity and overall durability of the phone. To assemble, we used an innovative dual compression and injection process that enables a thickness ratio of 2.2:0.8 (thickest to thinnest) compared to industry standard of 2:1. Engineered by iterating the mould dozens of times with thousands of samples and tests with over 180 materials.

Phone (2a) Special Edition

Phone (2a) Special Edition is a story of colour, told through our most powerfully unique smartphone yet. 

At the very core of Nothing is transparency. This idea of distilling things down to their most basic, yet beautiful form. If we apply this notion to colour we are left with red, yellow and blue. 

Special Edition celebrates primary colours and their place within Nothing’s brand identity.

Light. Work.
