Here’s a first look at the Nothing Phone (2)

The Nothing Phone (1) was pretty popular amongst tech fans, and the next generation is going to be one of the most anticipated devices of the Year. While we’re still wondering how this phone is going to look, we might have a quick sneak peek. Thanks to SmartPix, we have a first look at the Nothing Phone (2).

While the Nothing Phone (1) wasn’t spectacular in terms of its specs and software, it still managed to stand out amongst the sea of phones with its unique design and overall fresh mentality. OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei is the owner of the company Nothing, and he’s been doing a lot to bring publicity to this device.

Here’s a first look at the Nothing Phone (2)

Now, it seems that early summer is the expected window for Nothing’s phones to launch. The company launched the Nothing Phone (1) on July 12th 20th 22, and we’re also expecting a July release this year. At this point, we don’t know the exact date. Also, we haven’t gotten any official renders from the company, so you’ll want to take this first look with a grain of salt.

Unfortunately, people expecting a major design overhaul will be disappointed. The differences in design aren’t quite notable. According to the leak, it appears that the Nothing Phone (2) will also sport the transparent backing with many of its components in the same spot as last year.

As for differences, there are some slight differences and how the components are arranged under the back glass. Some of them are shaped slightly differently.

Some of the more noticeable differences are the LED flash in the recording LED. The LED flash is now a bit bigger, and it’s an oval. The recording LED is no longer a small dot, it’s a line

The most notable difference has to do with the glyph interface. The overall shape hasn’t changed all that much, but we see that it’s sectioned off. The section around the camera package is split into two parts, and the large section around the wireless charging coil is split into five sections.

Overall, based on this first look, the Nothing Phone (2) retains the overall design aesthetic of the Nothing Phone (1). It might follow the aesthetic a bit too closely for some people’s taste.
