Phone (2a) 12+256GB - Unlocked mobile phone with Nothing OS 2.5 - Black

Absolutely love this phone!, for me it ticks every single box for my needs. The ONLY negative I will give is the lack of a case and charger, which some other companies include. But I suppose this is at a lower price, so it can be forgiven. Performance - Perfect for your day to day, though if you're use to flagship performance, you won't get that here. Though what you do get is 120hz screen, smooth responses and it'll handle most things. I think 90% of people will be happy with this. Cameras - Nothing special, but nothing too bad. I've been impressed with the low light photos from this phone. Though again, nothing special at this price, but that doesn't mean they're bad, as they're really good. Battery / Charging - Easily a 2 day battery life for me, though others may differ depending on your use case scenario. 50 watt charging speed does what it needs to do, no complaint from me here either. Screen - The screen hasn't been bad, I mean, it hasn't made me have an opinion in a negative way, so that tells you something. Very nice, bright and responsive. Conclusion - While I can't include everything in my review or I'll be here all day, I will say for the price this phone is perfect, I absolutely LOVE the phone and would recommend it with 100% confidence!

I have always gone for higher end handsets but decided to give the Nothing Phone 2a Plus a go, the modern design of the OS and quirky hardware appealed to me. Also since I bought my last handset the market has changed and you get more for your money in the budget/midrange end. So far I am impressed by the software experience, I like what Nothing have done here. Its fast and I like the use of widgets and the more minimalist aesthetic, plus the Glyph lights are more useful than I expected and very cool. Battery life so far is amazing, screen quality top notch and I have noticed a big step in call quality over my Oppo. Haven't really had the chance to try the camera but I expect it will be more than enough for what I need and more. I like that its a bit different and the overall hardware quality seems excellent, what's not to like :) At Last a FUN Mobile

If your looking for a cheap but top phone look no further this phone will keep up with your dailys and more value for money it'll keep up with games if your interested in gaming phones very good weight holds its charge for a long time great graphics runs smoothly super easy phone to use and fully customisable phone feels great in hand hand and looks brilliant sounds is really good screen is top quality storage is brilliant a range of different colours

This phone will do most things you want from a midrange phone . The operating system is very lean and is not cluttered with unnecessary apps etc . Very fast and responsive. Feels nice in your hand and I love the design and build quality. It is not heavy and cumbersome feels just right . Only one downside is the camera . It takes majority of pics well but no optical zoom but for this price you can't have everything. Would I recommend? Yes definitely. When I have had this for a couple of years maybe I will get there next top tier phone like the nothing 2 . One last thing which is essential for me is the battery life which last easily a day and half if normal usage . Love it

I have been using the Nothing Phone 2a for over a month, and after the initial settling in period of a week (for both me and the phone), I have to say I am extremely pleased with it. It had a few niggles to start, display aberrations, apps crashing and camera stutters, but with but with OS updates, these all seem to have gone. In fact, after using phones from both Apple, Google and Samsung, I would say this is a brilliant budget option. Top tier, mid range performance at a sensible price (£199 when purchased). Definitely recommend to anyone wondering about its merits.

Fantastic value for money for what you get. The screen is fantastic, battery life is impressive too, and it gets frequent updates. The UI is fluid and I haven’t seen any lags. The design is very distinctive and all the whole the phone feels well made. Camera is okay in good light conditions but flagships are better in trickier conditions. However, given what you pay for this phone, I am not complaining.

Phone looks great, and is pretty fast in everyday usage, it's android so it's simple to use, the build quality is nice, however it's feels a little cheaper as the back is plastic ( although good quality ) and the phone doesn't weigh as much as some of the more premium ones. The issues show up pretty quickly however, the battery life is average but slower to charge than some rivals in the price point. I have owned this phone for 3 months and 3 times in this period I have gone to make a call and the phone refuses to dial out. I have to restaythe phone to be able to make calls, this is my biggest annoyance with this phone. The bluetooth quality is also really poor, I have some expensive earbuds and this phone disconnects, sends extremely sharp and shrill blasts of sound to the earbuds every so often and is intermittent in it's connection, and I'm sat less than 3 feet away from my phone whilst connected. Overall I can cope with the phone in everyday usage, however I change my phone's every 6 to 12 months as I like to try out new tech, I can say with all honesty I may be switching from this phone to another one before I get to 6 months ownership

Good phone for the money
