Nothing started a community project earlier this year aiming for a Nothing Phone (2a) co-designed with its community members. The project is now complete and a special edition – called Nothing Phone (2a) Community Edition – will be launched on the 30th of this month. That said, let’s take a look at what’s different.
The Community Edition differs from the original Phone (2a) mainly in four aspects: appearance, packaging box, new wallpapers, and marketing campaign.
The biggest difference lies in the back design of the phone. It utilizes Phosphorescence for a glow-in-the-dark design, which is pretty unique for smartphones to say the least.
Custom wallpapers are also a part of the special edition device, which reportedly combines hand-drawn elements and a variety of tools for sketching, digitalizing, AI generating, and post-editing to create a unique, layered, and rich process. The final result matches Nothing’s design language while offering a new look to the Nothing Phone (2a) Community Edition.
The packaging box also comes with a new design matching the new color of the phone. Aside from the color, the redesigned packaging box only showcases a single camera lens instead of two, which, according to the company, is also an interesting visual change.
The internal hardware of the Community Edition device, however, remains the same. For those unfamiliar, here’s a recap of the specifications of Nothing Phone (2a).
Nothing Phone (2a) specifications:
On the front, the phone packs a 6.7″ FHD+ AMOLED display that reaches 700 nits manually, 1100 nits in bright daylight, and 1300 nits during HDR playback. While it isn’t the best of what the price tag can offer, it’s more than enough for all the different conditions.
The phone runs on the Mediatek Dimensity 7200 Pro (4 nm) chip, packs a 5000 mAh battery, and supports 45W fast charging.
In terms of cameras, the phone packs two 50MP sensors on the back – a 1/1.56″ main sensor (with OIS), and a 1/2.76″ ultrawide. On the front, there is a 32MP shooter for selfies.
