The Nothing Phone 2a — better value than the Pixel 7a
Nothing’s latest phone packs performance and battery life into a cute design.
The Nothing Phone 2a Plus will launch in metallic grey and black colorways, along with a MediaTek Dimensity 7350 Pro 5G processor, 50-megapixel main and ultrawide cameras, and Nothing OS 2.6 running on Android 14.
Moving on to the front of the new device, Nothing has kitted the 2a Plus with a 6.7-inch AMOLED panel at Full HD+ resolution. The company makes particular note of the bezel thinness on offer, saying “Phone (2a) Plus retains the thinnest bezels in Nothing’s smartphone line-up, measuring just 2.1 mm symmetrically on all four sides of the screen.”
The Glyph Interface makes its return with the 2a Plus
The unique assembly of LED lights on the back of the phone gives the phone a distinctly ‘Nothing’ feel

The distinctive glyph interface, which has now become synonymous with the Nothing brand, is thankfully back in action on the 2a Plus. LED lights adorn the rear side of the phone, and light up in various patterns to coincide with notifications and other system alerts.
Shipping with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage for an asking price of $399, the Nothing Phone 2a Plus appears to be a solid contender in the world of mid-range smartphone offerings. We’ll have to test the device more thoroughly before arriving at any conclusions, but the 2a Plus is shaping up to be a unique value proposition.
Nothing is expected to announce its Phone 3 in 2025, so the 2a Plus appears to be fulfilling a market segment somewhere in between the existing Phone 2a and the company’s higher-end offerings. We’ll have more on the Nothing Phone 2a in the coming day, including an in-depth review.
