Nothing Phone (2) India Launch – 11 Things You Should Know
For those eagerly anticipating the forthcoming Nothing Phone (2), continue reading to discover the 11 key details that have been unveiled by the company thus far:
1. Pre-booking Details:
Potential buyers can secure their Nothing Phone (2) by purchasing a pre-order pass on Flipkart. By paying a refundable deposit of INR 2,000, customers can reserve their smartphones ahead of the official release. To complete the purchase, users must visit Flipkart between July 11 and July 20, select their preferred variant, and pay the remaining balance. Additionally, customers can take advantage of pre-booking offers provided by Nothing.
2. Refund Policy:
For those who decide not to proceed with their purchase, refunds will be issued after the pre-order sales period concludes.
3. Powerful Performance:
The Nothing Phone (2) will be equipped with Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which is also found in the premium OnePlus 11R smartphone retailing at Rs 39,999 in India.
4. Display Design:
Featuring a standard center punch-hole design, the Nothing Phone (2) will showcase a center notch at the top of its 6.7-inch Full HD+ resolution display. Similar to its predecessor, the Nothing Phone (1), an OLED panel is expected to be incorporated.
5. Glyph Composer:
Nothing has unveiled the inclusion of a Glyph Composer feature in the upcoming Phone (2), allowing users to personalize and remix custom sounds from Swedish House Mafia. Interestingly, this feature will also be available on the previous-generation Nothing Phone (1), indicating that it will be part of the new Nothing OS 2.0.
6. Unique Aesthetic:
Teasers released by Nothing showcase a semi-transparent back panel design for the Phone (2), accompanied by a captivating light and sound setup. The LED strip and wireless charging coil now appear in multiple parts, offering users increased customization options for lighting and sound composition.
7. Battery and Charging:
The Nothing Phone (2) will house a slightly larger 4,700mAh battery. While charging specifics have not been revealed by Nothing, expectations are high for the inclusion of fast charging technology, as seen in the previous Nothing Phone (1) model.
8. Software Upgrades:
Nothing has committed to providing three years of major Android OS upgrades and four years of security patches for the Phone (2). Although this falls slightly short of Samsung’s offerings for certain mid-range phones, it ensures an extended software support period. Notably, Samsung’s recently launched Galaxy F54 boasts a four-year Android OS update guarantee.
9. Nothing OS 2.0 Operating System:
It is anticipated that the Nothing Phone (2) will ship with the latest Android 13-based Nothing OS 2.0 out of the box, highlighting the company’s commitment to delivering an up-to-date software experience.
10. Pre-Order Offers:
Ahead of the official launch, Nothing has announced exciting sale offers for the Phone (2) pre-order period. Customers will have the opportunity to enjoy a 50 percent discount on Nothing accessories, further enhancing their smartphone experience.
11. Charger Exclusion:
Following the precedent set by its predecessor, the Nothing Phone (2) is unlikely to ship with a charger, as the company did not include one with its first device. This aligns with a growing trend in the industry to reduce e-waste and promote sustainability.
With the Nothing Phone (2) launch just days away, anticipation and excitement are building among tech enthusiasts. The detailed insights shared by Nothing have shed light on key aspects of the upcoming flagship, ensuring consumers are well-informed ahead of their purchasing decisions. As the Phone (2) hits the Indian market, it promises to deliver powerful performance, a unique design, and an immersive user experience.
Nothing has officially started teasing its next smartphone, the Nothing Phone (3), on social media. The company has now confirmed that the phone will launch in July 2025.
On their social handles, Nothing posted a short 6-second video showing the number 3, followed by the message:
“3. It’s a magic number.”
This teaser confirms both the name and the launch month of the upcoming phone.
Now remains the actual date of the launch event. So it could be in the first week or the second week of July.
What to Expect from Nothing Phone (3)
Recently, Carl Pei, the founder of Nothing, shared some exciting details. He said that the Phone (3) will feature premium materials, major performance upgrades, and better software. He called it “our true flagship smartphone.”
Carl also mentioned that technology should feel exciting again—not just in terms of design, but also with a user-first operating system.
So now, let’s see what the specs of the upcoming phone will be. It will surely have top-notch features, but the major question is about the chipset—will they go with the latest one, or take a step back?
Akis Evangelidis , co-founder of Nothing, also said: ‘Two years in the making. Our first true flagship. Over the past four years, we’ve been steadily building our product capabilities, and Phone (3) is the culmination of it all. I’m buzzing about it, just like when we launched Phone (1). Can’t wait!’
Expected Price of Nothing Phone (3)
Carl Pei hinted that the Phone (3) could be priced around £800 (about USD 1,064 or Rs. 90,850). For comparison, the Nothing Phone (2) with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage was launched at £629 (around USD 836 or Rs. 71,429) and was priced at Rs. 54,999 in India.
Based on this, the Nothing Phone (3) could launch in India at over Rs. 64,999, especially if the 12GB + 256GB model is the base variant. The phone is also expected to include advanced AI features, which could impact the pricing.
Recently, the Nothing Phone (2a) and Nothing Phone (2) received the May 2025 Nothing OS 3.0 update. This update introduced some useful features like Private Space, different passwords for App Lock, and a Hotspot Manager.
These features were already available on the CMF Phone 2 Pro and Nothing Phone 3a series, which run on Nothing OS 3.2 and 3.1.
However, many users noticed that the Hotspot Manager feature is missing on the Nothing Phone (2), even though it was expected. This has led to confusion and disappointment, especially since users have been requesting this feature for a long time.
Now, all eyes are on Nothing to see if they will release another update soon to bring the Hotspot Manager to the Nothing Phone (2). If not, users may have to wait until the next scheduled security update in July 2025.
Tech brand Nothing has officially confirmed that it is working on its first pair of over-ear headphones. The announcement was made in a recent video, following the company’s earlier news about a partnership with audio company KEF for upcoming sound products.
The over-ear headphones have been rumored since February 2024, when they were seen in a certification listing with the model number B170, simply labeled as “wireless headphone”.
Unique Design and Features
Nothing’s CEO Carl Pei had previously shared concept images of over-ear headphones back in October 2022, and now it looks like the idea is finally becoming reality.
According to Nothing, these headphones will have a very unique and stylish design that stands out. The company’s designers reportedly don’t like the look of current headphones on the market, so they are aiming to create something different—something that “says something about you” when you wear them.
The headphones will also feature distinct physical buttons, designed to be easy to recognize by touch so you can control them comfortably while wearing them.
High-Quality Sound at a Better Price
Nothing is promising top-tier sound quality, especially considering the price. The company even claims that if you switch from high-end options like Apple’s AirPods Max, you won’t be disappointed, even though Nothing’s headphones will be more affordable.
There is a concept of Nothing Over-Ear Headphones made by Ben Geskin. They look quite good, featuring a transparent design with Glyph lights inside and a red button at top.
Launch Timeline
The new Nothing headphones are expected to launch in summer 2025, around the same time as the company’s upcoming smartphone, the Nothing Phone (3). There’s a good chance both products will be announced together at the same launch event.
