For a new mobile company trying its space in the competition, charger is a must in the retail box. Otherwise I would have paid for the software experience.
This phone is definitely better than the Poco F5 pro lol... People just hate the nothing phone cause it has a led light as a feature... It's gimmicky, but it's really nice, works good for video lightning in your face... And the rest of the phone is great
The Nothing Phone 2 is somewhat an upgrade: the chipset, the display (now with LTPO OLED), the design and the cameras; especially the image processing. But the battery life is average, the selfie cam is decent and no charger in the box .
Most reviewer already did the battery review .. It was quite nice .. And about charger, there are a lot more expensive phone out there with no charger also .. Don't know why this trend keep up on flagship device
What's stopping you from reviewing Oppo Reno 10, Pro and Pro + ?? You are reviewing the Poco phones, that's good but there can be a side to side comparison for Nothing 2 and Reno 10 Pro + , as both have the SD 8+ Gen 1 chipset....
This is the "King of Midrange" To those saying it's overpriced, think again. You get a 50MP ultrawide and a 32MP selfie cam vs the usual 8MP ultrawide and 16 MP selfie with other brands within this pricepoint. Very good HDR on both rear and front facing camera and it's close to iPhone and Pixel phones in terms of camera quality in real life. If you ever experienced the software updates on the Phone 1, then you know for sure how further it will improve for this Phone. A lot of people crying and hating here because this brand is challenging the status quo. These guys are the real stupid people. 😂
I had Samsung s10+, last year I bought nothing phone 1 and this year I got the phone 2. Beautiful device, pleasure to use, and unique user interface that I can put in black and white icons to minimize distractions. The glyphs are very useful for me for my pomodoro work method
Hey i accidentally found your yt channel because i don't know it exists but i definitely say that i'm a big fan of your website GSM really❤❤❤🎉 but today i found your channel so exciting ❤
Excusez moi,je viens de m'acheter un Nothing phone 2 pour remplacer mon Oppo Reno 2 qui ne ce met plus à jours depuis Android 11 ,je me demande si j'ai fais un bon choix ?!
In indian units there is no jello like effect in 4k recording at all... As per the other youtuber samples, it had great stabilization. I think it is in your review unit only
Bro i have many reviews of your channel , none of them is talking about negatives of the devices , why so review is your own thoughts not the company specifications
Actually what's the point of having 256gb if your phone is using google photos. Google photos only allow 15gb for free. This is the problem im facing now with my phone 1. That 256gb is just sitting there doing nothing.
Then dont backup everything in Google drive then. Or buy extra storage. It's like $20 for 100gb for a year. People use phone storage to record more videos, offline movies, music.
That's only on a singular pixel level with HDR, the whole panel can hit 1000 nits. Plenty bright enough for in the sun ect, also gets very dim. It's a good Samsung panel
@@davidbezzant9820lot of people are complaining that the display can't be compared with other phones in the segment. Also in bright sunlight it doesn't perform well. It looks dull and greyish. Is it true?
Seriously (I genuinely want to know), someone explains to me how this smartphone at $600 in USA or €700 in Europe is a better deal than (real) high-end of last year like the OnePlus 10 Pro, Oppo Find X5 Pro, S22 Plus (Snapdragon), even iPhone 13... and especially a OnePlus 11 which can currently be found quite often and easily at the same price 🤔 Ps: it's a little misleading, dishonest on the part of Nothing (as well as Xiaomi with its Poco F5 Pro), to say that this smartphone has a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, in reality, it is a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 but TSMC manufacture.
That's the snapdragon 8 + gen 1😅, the normal snapdragon 8 gen 1 was manufactured using Samsung's fabs and had some issues, Qualcomm gave contracts to Samsung and TSMC for the snapdragon 8 gen 1 and since the performance was so different between them they decided to name it snapdragon 8+ gen 1 to avoid confusion Edit: tldr they aren't deceiving you with the snapdragon 8+ gen 1 branding

Just hope that the Nothing Phone company won't be sold to India.. Once an Indian takeover a company, everything will drop drastically except for price.
in chapters it says "side mounted fingerprint" where as its an in display fingerprint.
3 months and it still says that. Gotta appreciate that user feedback on their part. As long as you give your views, it doesn't matter to them
I do have to point out that the ultrawide camera isn't as wide with 114 degrees instead of the wider 120 degrees in phones of this tier.
For a new mobile company trying its space in the competition, charger is a must in the retail box. Otherwise I would have paid for the software experience.
Wow, who heard that rhyme 🤯🎉 "what's new on the nothing two, and would it be worth upgrading to, let's find out in our full review".👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

@@djdelarosa25 lol go stick with 8 + 2 ultrawide macro love story hahahahaha
If possible try comparing this with One Plus 11R & Pixel 7 or 7A
Overpriced
Just an average midranger then, nothing really to make it stand out aside from the incredibly gimmicky LEDs that people will never use.
Exactly. Granted, it's getting Nothing some fame, but as a user experience the phone is extremely mediocre.
The phone use USB 2.0 very terrible 😂
For a "average midranger" phone, the cpu is a high-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

Great review GSMArena. 🎉🎉
@6:07 what do you mean by "its 12.5 MP ultrawide shots are very good for this sort of camera"?
Nice to see you again sir
Does this one have desktop mode when type c to hdmi is plugged to an external display?
No
Nothing phone 2 last year ✌️
Should I upgrade my pixel 6a for this ?
100%
How’s the wired audio quality this time? I remember you guys mentioning it was pretty bad on the Phone 1
Guys, which phone should I go for: this or motorola edge 30 ultra?
Why not the 40 ultra
This, because Motorola is cheap Chinese trash 🗑️
@@thetechrealist how so? Moto is getting better.
Does it matter? They're pretty much all the same anyway. The first week or so, it's "Wow!", following that, it's the same as any other phone.
@@Kameleonic that's not true
5:10 i really dig the way you uttered the word " default phone". I like it!
Owe first channel to review nothing 2
Lmfao🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol 😂😂😂😂
Please can you do a review on the Oukitel WP19 and the Doogee vmax phone
Shoutout to the rhyming on the intro!! 😅😅
Great video, I bought Samsung A54 after watching its video on this channel
Excusez moi,je viens de m'acheter un Nothing phone 2 pour remplacer mon Oppo Reno 2 qui ne ce met plus à jours depuis Android 11 ,je me demande si j'ai fais un bon choix ?!
Will the glowing lights on the back still work if the glass back gets cracked?
yes
Take care of yourself sounds like cold got you
Gsm team, please repaint your snail😂

As per the other youtuber samples, it had great stabilization.
I think it is in your review unit only
Bro can we use the NP2 with a foreign SIM ? Since the box mentions INDIA SIM ONLY
@shaktimaan90 Yes, but it must be activated with Indian sim card only ..
Bro i have many reviews of your channel , none of them is talking about negatives of the devices , why so review is your own thoughts not the company specifications
why no support for high frame rate gaming?
Its gimmick phone 2
For that hefty price they should append USB 3.0, charger,case in the box.
Just ignore it and go for S22+ or iPhone
100% agree. They charge a premium for their useless glyph. They can keep it
🤝🏽
Does it have an NFT gallery?
Wow, it's a nice upgrade over it's predecessor. Great job guys!!!
Where in Bulgaria are make pictures?
despite the specs that 1080p is always a video ender
Does the Phone (2) support Display Output via USB-C?
No that's a big flop on them
Does this get 3 years of Android updates. Does that mean it will get the Android 16
Someone explain????
But does is have Qualcomm APTx and LDAC ??
Yes it has
NOTHING comes close 2 this design!
network? netspeed ?
nice phone but I think it's a bit overpriced!
What's yo view kn neo 7 pro

I don't think I will like those flashing lights otherwise I want it. And even if I love the flashing lights I will still have to put the case
You didn't test the speakers quality.....😢
They have on a separate video, they go very deeper on that. You can find that on their link
esim capable?
It is great phone but I will buy it in smaller size if they produce it
Didn't the CEO of nothing phone company say, the display can go brighter than 1500 nits?
I heard 1600 nits max
That's only on a singular pixel level with HDR, the whole panel can hit 1000 nits. Plenty bright enough for in the sun ect, also gets very dim. It's a good Samsung panel

It's one of the best displays if you're sensitive to flicker.
A54 + PS5 Or S23 Ultra?
Depends if you work a lot on your phone or not, I would get the PlayStation and a54
Not sure why I should buy this: it seems the same as any other Android phone at that price range.
What a thumbnail!
Phone (2) has a 60Hz refresh rate whenever you launch a game. So it's not actually 120Hz everywhere. I don't recommend this smartphone.
i love this phone
what's the point of this phone? it's basically like very other phone.
better go for Oppo Reno 10 Pro Plus
Ive heard the haptics are poor. Massive oversight from nothing
Nothing 2 or Nord 3?
NP2

Poco F5
The problem nothing phone 2 there is no charger in the box and more expensive
Finally 🎉
Nice phone
No charger no buying
Meh battery life and no support for HRR gaming? Definitely not going to buy this one

Does it have USB type c 2.0 or 3.0
2.0
1080p in 2023 tho
