The primary sensor is Sony’s Sony IMX890, which can also be found on the OnePlus 11, and various other phones from Oppo and fellow Chinese handset maker, Realme.
The system sports a hefty 32-megapixel front camera, and a pair of 50-megapixel sensors on the rear. Again, Pei couldn’t help himself, encouraging testers to upload their images to social media prior to today’s official unveiling.

The other top-line upgrade here is the camera. If you want to spec it out at 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, that will run you an extra $200 - again, still well below flagship prices, and closer to the Pixel 7 Pro’s starting price of $899. Here $599 will get you 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. If you’re looking to distinguish yourself in a difficult economy, price is a good place to start. But pricing has been a huge factor in the decline of smartphone sales, with flagships regularly running above $1,000. After all, the company clearly sees its products as a fashion statement - a kind of luxury item worthy of limited edition drops. In the past Pei has seemingly avoided positioning Nothing as a budget device maker. With a $599 starting point, the device is priced well below other companies’ flagships. Being one or half a generation behind affords the company the ability to price aggressively. In fact, a vast majority of potential users almost certainly won’t notice a difference - even among those who are up on such things. It’s not the latest, but the 8+ Gen 1 is still an excellent chip. Nothing is seemingly taking a page out of OnePlus’ book here. The line is seemingly due for another refresh, as well, with rumors pointing to a potential reveal around Samsung’s upcoming event. In December, the chipmaker announced the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. But we’ve never officially acknowledged whether it’s Qualcomm or MediaTek.” Today the device was revealed to be running on the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, which Qualcomm introduced last May. Earlier, I said it was going to be a premium device. In February, Pei told TechCrunch, “We’re going to be using the 8 series. Nothing wrong with a mid-tier processor, of course - not everyone needs to pay high shelf prices for the latest and greatest, but the component did belie the company’s positioning of the product as a kind of flagship killer. The Phone (1) was famously powered by a mid-tier Snapdragon 778.
Chief among them is the inclusion of a more premium processor.
Nothing’s Phone (2) aims to outdo its predecessor, in part, by cutting fewer corners. We’re not talking anywhere near Samsung or Apple numbers here, but it’s a promising start in a space where the first several products are very much make or break. The firm doesn’t break out specific figures, only saying that it’s thus far sold 1,500,000 combined units across its different lines. One can only color outside the lines so far in this industry, but Nothing has found some success as an exciting upstart. Carl Pei’s Nothing raises something – $96M – ahead of the launch of its Phone (2)
