Imagine a phone company releasing a phone once every 3 years. And for the time they don't release them, they just work on improving the already existing phone through its promised 3 yrs of security updates.
i prefer the front camera to be at the side too. i get that they put it in the middle for better video call but its just too distracting when you're watching content in landscape.
At this point it seems better to just buy phone 1, it will get the same OS update anyway, and the 778G chip isn't that bad for everyday use, I don't even play games, I only use social media like snapchat, tiktok, youtube etc.
Despite the higher price, it's still a better value thanks to LTPO screen (more efficient OLED) and of course, the SD8+ Gen 1, also efficient and way powerful than 778G...a phone that has that kind of specs, power, efficiency, long battery life, software and decent price for near high end, is remarkable...the "buy this and no need to upgrade for like 5 years" phone. For me, the flagship level shouldn't cost above $800...unless you're Samsung and iPhone. Also, if you already have the Nothing Phone 1, it's not worth the upgrade, for newcomers who came from shitty phones, it's a steal.
"Better value" than what? The so called "more efficient OLED" is hardly enough and the processor is nothing special The ONLY thing this overpriced phone has going for it is the glyph. A useless gimmick. It does NOTHING other than that to justify the price they charge. Those clowns don't even put the charger in the box. They think they are already on Samsung/Apple level.
@@jihigh482 The chipset alone is pricier, faster and efficient, not to mention the upgraded camera sensors and the LTPO screen which helps with long battery life, not the glyph thingy, I'll probably cover it with a cover lol. If you want cheap, go with bloatware phones. Maybe get a Pixel 7 if you have the money, good value mid-ranger. (in my place, it's $700 for Pixel 7 128GB oof and Nothing Phone 2 128GB is at $600) The only overpriced phone I can think of is Samsung. I do understand the hate of not including chargers especially if it's type C to C, which most of us don't have and that is kinda stupid.
It s overpriced. Literally the CPU does not matter. I ve had 778 phones, it s more than enough. Nothin gphone 2 looks worse it s bigger more expensive.
Finally, uncle spurt does not have to tilt the angle of his camera - because the nothing phone has symmetrical bezels. Most of the shots of the cheap phones are filmed by uncle spurt in a way to hide the fact that the bezels are thicker at the bottom. He even uses dark wallpapers often. Glad the nothing phone 2 get a proper camera treatment!
I only recently bought the Phone 1 for my son and at £199 (deal at O2) it's a steal. So at nearly £400 more (in my case), the Phone 2 is very expensive in comparison! Will probably wait a year to see if it gets discounted by a similar amount before deciding whether to buy myself one. Really wanted a Nord 3 but nothing doing in the UK rn 🤨
wow what a price. where I live i can find it for around 250 pounds. If will go on 200 pounds i will buy. Same for nothing phone 2 I will wait for 400 pounds price
@@XELASK82 I bought Nothing Phone 2, it's a marketing phone, sound is bad, vibration is weak and terrible, there are no settings for vibration to increase it, you will miss 100% of notifications in the pocket, comparing to my previous phone.

Not sure the Phone 2 is enough of an upgrade for me to switch from the Phone 1 just yet, especially if OS v2 comes to the NP1 soon. My main issue is the size of it! The NP1 is already bigger than I'd like, so i was hoping they'd at least slim down the bezels but keep the same or smaller overall size. For this sort of money I'd rather stretch a bit further and get the ZenFone 10 instead to be honest.
I have the same feeling about my phone 1. Awesome phone and experience, but I would prefer a smaller phone. I am rooting for a compact nothing phone next year.
To me the Nothing Phone 2 feels like a Nothing Phone 1 S. Im rocking an iPhone XS max and will be picking up the Phone 2, for me it's big enough of an upgrade and seems like a natural Android iPhone alternative.
I got my phone on Saturday and I love it, I got it in grey, I think it feels very stylish and premium and very easy to use... I am very happy with it and would recommend
Good review👍 Plz make a video comparing NP2 with phones using the same chipset / in the same price category. That would be useful for people looking to upgrade from phones other than the NP 1.
Preordered the 2....Can't wait Because, samsung is no way. Chinese support and slow upgrades are also a no go. Sony are expensive and only two os upgrades is a hard camel to swallow. Love the design and not looking like everyone else's phones
Hi i own both Nothing Phone 1 was an incredible joy to use all year now i buyed Nothing Phone 2 and i have heart pain to leave Nothing Phone 1 in cabinet but i always wanted to bigger screen and longer lasting battery but sadly i don't like front camera in the middle of screen
I don't agree with you because what you're saying is just not true, the 8+ gen 1 scores around 11 lacs lacs on antutu benchmark over the nothing phone 1 with the 778+ which nearly touches 6 lacs. Now that's a solid 80% improvement in terms of processing power :)
@@notexactlynikhil i daily use a NP1 and a 13 Pro. If you only concentrate on benchmarks, of course A15 destroys SD778G+ but on real life, NP1 is smooth with 7 to 8 hours SoT. I feel difference when i take Photos and Videos with image quality, and processing: no debate, 13 Pro is above. NP2 is a good improve from NP1 and benchmarks and real tests give you right on Battery/Performance but NP2 is neither a Pixel nor a S23/iPhone 14 Pro something on Cameras: that’s why i won’t switch from my NP1.
Bought the NP1 to make the switchback from the iPhone Se 2020 to Android again. So I think I will be satisfied in all ways since I both like Andoid and iOS in its own ways.
The only vid i need at the moment lol. The Nothing phone 2 is not in my country yet but the Nothing 1 is available and the price has dropped. So now I have to decide if I will wait for the Nothing Phone 2 or just buy the 1
I was waiting for this to release... but I'm honestly disappointed. For the price of the 12 GB version, I could get the Pixel 7 Pro (which will probably get discounted once pixel 8 announces).
As someone who owns the 7 pro, I bought the np2, the pixel is nice if you can ignore the random bugs every other patch and the tensor being a trash chipset
@@brosplit In my place, Pixel 7 pro cost almost near $900...base model cost $800-750...meanwhile, Nothing Phone 2 cost $600 and you know which one I'm going for. Asia prices are insane for Pixel, so it's good to have an actual value flagship (and Nothing is made by the guy who made OnePlus awesome). Time to upgrade from shitty Xiaomi software.
I was tempted by Nothing Phone (1) last autumn.....but in the end opted for a refurbished Google Pixel 6. And am very happy with it. So when I come to upgrade towards the end of this year, then instead of choosing the Nothing 2, I'll probably get a discounted Google 7, after Google introduce the Pixel 8. Nothing phones do look very good, but I think I'll wait until the company is more established before considering getting a Nothing phone. I do think, as others have said, that their prices are a little on the high side. They should reduce them, so they are more competitive with Google Pixels.
already got the Phone(1) so even though the 2 is an improvement I will happily stick with the 1 for now as it still an excellent phone no need to upgrade just for the sake of it.
I own a Nothing phone 1, and I've cancelled my pre order of Nothing phone 2. I assumed theyd have a trade in scheme like Samsung, Google etc. Nope, no trade in scheme. So I checked what someone like Mazuma etc would offer for my phone 1. A trade in for a Pixel 7 pro was about what i thought, their offer for my Nothing phone 1? £67 😳 I can get a discounted Pixel 7 Pro for around the same money as the NP2, but also factor in how much you'll lose on selling the Nothing phone 2, itll be pretty bad i guess 😕 Coupled with ramped up price and minor improvements, suffice to say, my next phone won't be a Nothing phone.
Honestly, in day to day performance the average person won't hardly notice the difference between the snapdragon 778G and the Snapdragon 8 plus generation 1. Yes on paper the newer chip is significantly more powerful, but the UI of the device will be just as smooth between the two of them for most tasks. If you really want to have the new gimmick on the back, I would go with the original one. They didn't really change entirely that much between the two models. In my mind if it was priced at around 399 it would be a much better deal
The original phone was 399, they’re not going to charge the same price for a phone with a better processor and cameras regardless if it may seem like a marginal difference. I’m sure most people won’t notice much difference between a standard mid range and a flag ship in day to day performance but people will still pay the money for a flagship processor.
I have a Samsung A52s with 778G and i can tell that 8 Gen 1 would have been better at some points of my usage. 8 series chip is a flagship chip, so charging the same as last year is asking for too much lol
Yeah true. Unless youre gaming...? Maybe. Think all they've really improved on is the build quality and cooling capacity this year although they've said they've done more internal upgrades.
I can't see the point of buying a phone (2) I'm more than happy with my phone (1) , maybe in the future I might go for the phone (3) or (4) just my opinion!
After spending more than a year of being annoyed by my Pixel 6 Pro, I think I will give up the telephoto lens and get the Nothing Phone 2 as the battery life is far better than the Pixel 7 and the camera is only lagging behind just a bit which is still great in my book. I've given up on Tensor nonsense and by extension anything with an Exynos chip.
I think I prefer the overall look of the first one. Slightly less chin at the bottom and I prefer having the front facing camera hole to the side rather than the centre.
This will be really helpful for me as I am very very confused between getting a NP1 or NP2. (nvm, after finishing the video I am still as confused lmao) I am really dying to go with NP2 as it would give me with much better hardware and a bit longer software support. But when I look at the price, NP1 does seem more worth for my use case, there's just too much price jump from NP1 to NP2. Really cannot make a decision but would like to go with NP2 because it seems like a phone which I can easily use for at least 5 years. and also... Nazuna! :D
Please come back to me when you have decided :D I want to get a new phone for Christmas and I don't want to get over the threshold of 700$ but not under $400 and it seems so hard to find a good choice of phones. Samsung's recent ones fit that but I always hear complaints about battery life and overheating. The only issue I have with iPhone is battery and the annoying thing of having to buy 3rd party due to Apple taking off their old smartphones from the website. The NP1 & NP2 seem so attractive and I feel almost lured hahahaha
8+gen 1 is a great processor..better than 7+gen 2... Having the 8+gen 1 for below 600$ is a good buy... Plus keep in mind that 8gen 1 was made by samsung whereas 8+gen 1 was made by tsmc....
My issues with nothing phone 1, battery live is bad, automatic screen light does not work, accidentally making screenshots, too slippery, flashlight is weak
I will wait 2 or 3 months, or I will go for Google Pixel 7 or OnePlus 11, which are cheaper and better. Nothing Phones 1 was having to many software issues, thats why I sold it and went to Google Pixel 6
I really dont get the hate i think for the price its not a bad device id rather have the 8+gen1 than this tensor trash. Screen is also not that bad i cant really notice a difference between 2k and fhd on a phone. Only downside is that there is no telephoto lens 🤷
I returned Phone (2). It is a very mediocre phone that is unpolished in many areas. The glyph is a one-trick pony that gets old after 2 days. I couldn't justify the price of $700 (US) to keep as a second phone and it definitely wasn't even close to be enough to switch to daily driver from S23 Ultra.
After consuming a ton of reviews on the newer model I may be SLIGHTLY softening my disappointment, but only slightly. I still feel it's slightly overpriced for what it offers, and still feel the glyph action is simply a gimmick which requires a clear case if you want to protect it, as most people do. Though I'm man enough to admit that the likely software support, plus wireless charging and 1-120hz panel warrant a price jump of some description, I still feel it's probably jumped a tad too much IMO, especially with the other offerings available.
@@raffyarceus99 Indeed, though it's only about equal to the SD 7 gen 2 which can be found in cheaper priced phones, so that makes me think the price hike must really have come from elsewhere. Maybe the screen, or camera 🤔
@@adarshpatil5374 Oh without a doubt greed plays a role. Everything has risen in price over the last year or more and I do feel there's a point where a lot of companies think "people have accepted it's going to rise, so lets maximise on that". Had it been a bit closer to £529, or maybe even £549 I think I'd have been more understanding and might have put it on my list of "maybe's", but at £579 I think it's just a bit too pricey for what I need. It's growing on me, but man, that price sticks in my throat !
Yeah it is overpriced for what is essentially a gimmick and if want an Android I'd rather buy a galaxy s23, much better hardware and longer software support
I'm still happy with the Nothing phone 1 I see nothing here to me me want to upgrade it. I play games like titan quest a lot and I've not had an issue or wish for a better chipaet Nothing os 2 looks a bit better but I use nova anyway so don't care.
@@ZacklFair I saw a few other reviews Doesn’t seem to be a coincidence. I mean, it could be. But I don’t think it is. Could be software though. Which means that, at least in theory, it can be fixed with a software update.

I had sooooo much high hopes......I hoped that the phone 2 would be 6.4 inch and the front camera would not be in the centre Now I feel like a donkey for having those hopes

I love how most people talk shit about the price. They must have forgotten inflation + People wanting a higher pay check. So if a employer has to pay higher paychecks, guess what's going to happen? Prices will go up. We are in a upward price spiral, where some company's workforce will demand more money, then, the company will have to raise prices. Which leads to other people complaining about their wage, which will continue this cycle. Maybe complaining about your wage will help. 🤣
Imagine a phone company releasing a phone once every 3 years. And for the time they don't release them, they just work on improving the already existing phone through its promised 3 yrs of security updates.
And that's a bad way to do business.
Nobody should upgrade from only one generation of a phone, unless it’s a first generation experimental device like the Pixel 6
Well to be fair I love Nothing Phone 1 design, that side mounted camera is better than placing in front of the screen
FINALLY, a comment from a like-minded. It is so annoying to see a black dot right in the middle.

The NP1 & NP2 seem so attractive and I feel almost lured hahahaha
for sure!
although I will be making a purchase at the end of September haha
@@ranaprash any update for us yet? having the same struggle
liv seggs. I was also deciding between both of these but went with the redmi note 12 turbo 16/1tb to blast through gachas LOL
@@HrisG LMAOOOO. IT'S HILARIOUS BECAUSE I DID THE SAME :D
Oneplus 10t or nothing phone 1? Any suggestions. Price not being a factor
The video recording indicator gives it away which is which. First thing I would change.
Very good comparison. I'm very curious about what phone is his main phone? Anyone know?
Matter of time when we can expect a Something Phone.
Am I the only one who prefers the front camera on the top left corner ? The center position seems to get more in the way of consuming comtenf
8+gen 1 is a great processor..better than 7+gen 2...
Having the 8+gen 1 for below 600$ is a good buy...
Plus keep in mind that 8gen 1 was made by samsung whereas 8+gen 1 was made by tsmc....
how come the pics from the phone 2 look almost too HDR for me and the phone 1 looks more natural? is it just me?
My issues with nothing phone 1, battery live is bad, automatic screen light does not work, accidentally making screenshots, too slippery, flashlight is weak
Where do you get these anime wallpapers? They look pretty cool.
No headphone jack, no excuse, no deal.
Boy would you love the Asus Zenfones then they seem to be amazing. I would suggest looking those up.
The only tech RUclipsr we can trust
Am I alone in always placing my phone on its rear rather than on the screen? I Call it Screen protection.
I am confused should i buy N1 or N2?
I will wait 2 or 3 months, or I will go for Google Pixel 7 or OnePlus 11, which are cheaper and better. Nothing Phones 1 was having to many software issues, thats why I sold it and went to Google Pixel 6
I prefer the camera dot in the corner of the screen. I enjoy using my one on a daily basis. So no, the upgrades are not worth it for me.
Where do you get your anime wallpapers from
what's your wallpaper app??
Hello sir I had a query about nothing phone 2 is that did you find any in-built compass app in nothing phone?
Bro where can I get these wallpapers?
where can I get that Nazuna wallpaper from? :(
I really dont get the hate i think for the price its not a bad device id rather have the 8+gen1 than this tensor trash. Screen is also not that bad i cant really notice a difference between 2k and fhd on a phone. Only downside is that there is no telephoto lens 🤷
Where the wallpaper came from
I returned Phone (2). It is a very mediocre phone that is unpolished in many areas. The glyph is a one-trick pony that gets old after 2 days. I couldn't justify the price of $700 (US) to keep as a second phone and it definitely wasn't even close to be enough to switch to daily driver from S23 Ultra.
Which wallpaper from this phone
This channel is Unique😂
ig i'll stick with phone 1, but i wish the phone 1 selfie camera was in the middle
After consuming a ton of reviews on the newer model I may be SLIGHTLY softening my disappointment, but only slightly. I still feel it's slightly overpriced for what it offers, and still feel the glyph action is simply a gimmick which requires a clear case if you want to protect it, as most people do. Though I'm man enough to admit that the likely software support, plus wireless charging and 1-120hz panel warrant a price jump of some description, I still feel it's probably jumped a tad too much IMO, especially with the other offerings available.
The snapdragon 8+ gen 1 is another important upgrade tho
@@raffyarceus99 Indeed, though it's only about equal to the SD 7 gen 2 which can be found in cheaper priced phones, so that makes me think the price hike must really have come from elsewhere. Maybe the screen, or camera 🤔
@@Nite-owl maybe from greed too!
@@adarshpatil5374 Oh without a doubt greed plays a role. Everything has risen in price over the last year or more and I do feel there's a point where a lot of companies think "people have accepted it's going to rise, so lets maximise on that". Had it been a bit closer to £529, or maybe even £549 I think I'd have been more understanding and might have put it on my list of "maybe's", but at £579 I think it's just a bit too pricey for what I need. It's growing on me, but man, that price sticks in my throat !
I feel like if it was priced 100usd less it would be selling like hotcakes
Where do you download all the wallpapers in your phone vids from
The internet. Probably.
To be frank, this phone is overpriced
Ur right but atleast it's not boring
Wait until you see how much Apple charges.
Yeah it is overpriced for what is essentially a gimmick and if want an Android I'd rather buy a galaxy s23, much better hardware and longer software support
@@phiwanhlengethwa3874comparing a Lamborghini Veneno against the Ford Mustang isn't a good idea 😅
@@phiwanhlengethwa3874 but the iPhones are better in every single way
To be honest I'll probably just wait til a phone 3 or 4 comes out. The Phone 2 isn't really much of an upgrade.
Been debating about buying the nothing phone 2 vs iphone 13
Which would u recommend
If You're not a "photograph person" phone 2 would be the better option.. honestly..
Keep the phone you have if it still does a great job. Invest those 600 or more in ETFs or S&P500.
Thank me later.
No financial advice 😂
Nice video
What is wallpaper source
Had the (1) sold it and got the (2)
esim supported ?
I feel it's too early to go for more premium type would have stick to the midrange 👎👎👎
This is midrange.
I'm still happy with the Nothing phone 1 I see nothing here to me me want to upgrade it. I play games like titan quest a lot and I've not had an issue or wish for a better chipaet
Nothing os 2 looks a bit better but I use nova anyway so don't care.
bro how do you use double tap to lock screen on nova?i was using nova paid version and i installed it in np1 but double tap was not working in it
Camera module is bit different
the front camera in the middle is actually a deal breaker for me
🤓
Okay idiot, don't buy it then
Yeah I wish to just remove it or hide it under the screen.
The audio from the video recording sounds better on the Nothing Phone 1. Why?
I was thinking the same. Maybe he did block the mic with his hand or something?
@@ZacklFair I saw a few other reviews Doesn’t seem to be a coincidence. I mean, it could be. But I don’t think it is. Could be software though. Which means that, at least in theory, it can be fixed with a software update.
I want a new phone I just don't know witch one to get I was thinking getting the nothing phone 2 but the price is too much I was looking at the honour 90 phone .. any help will do I got a poco NFC X3.. that what I am using at the moment.
Can you review the copy of this phone please unihertz luna
Oneplus 11. Done
Watching from nothing phone 1.
Is that wallpaper nazuna chan
I had sooooo much high hopes......I hoped that the phone 2 would be 6.4 inch and the front camera would not be in the centre
Now I feel like a donkey for having those hopes
Never gave high hopes = never get disappointed
Zenfone 9 vs Zenfone 10. 🤔
why are phones so big these days?
Nothing Phone 2 vs Zenfone 10
I got phone 1 128gb at RM1499 now phone 2 is RM2999 with 8+gen1. I think it should remain phone 1 RM2499 starting price
Everyone forgot about inflation and workers demanding higher pays.
Phone 1 256gb is RM1999 now. Would you personally pay an extra RM1000 for the Phone 2 8+gen1? How was your Phone 1's experience?
I want your wallpaper
ok so 12 Minutes to tell me Nothing changed
Coming from a current apple user(iphone11) , would they be a good switch or should I go for a Samsung? And if I do go with the nothing phone would the 2 be a better buy?
Why u don't want to be in Apple anymore?
@@lostinreverie2183 want to try something different, bored of the basic looks of iPhone, tired of overpaying for more features than what I need just to stay in the same ecosystem, iPhone isn’t bad but I’ve been using them for about 10 years now
I love how most people talk shit about the price. They must have forgotten inflation + People wanting a higher pay check. So if a employer has to pay higher paychecks, guess what's going to happen? Prices will go up. We are in a upward price spiral, where some company's workforce will demand more money, then, the company will have to raise prices. Which leads to other people complaining about their wage, which will continue this cycle.
Maybe complaining about your wage will help. 🤣
I would pay 399 for this, it is massively overpriced. Typical Pei because OnePlus did the exact same thing.
Not so much difference in the camera.
their slogan should've been like "Nothing made by Nobody"
it just happened
It is a miscalculation. I gues carl is too eager to rip off people like apple in the name of "eXpeRiEnCe"
To be Frank it's not worth upgrade
Nothing knows India is the future
