Nothing Phone (2a)

this is a notice to those who are looking to purchase this phone and use it in the Americas. This phone is absolutely amazing, it has a long battery life, amazing performance, good picture quality, amazing sound quality both in media and on calls. HOWEVER, THIS PHONE IS NOT MADE FOR AMERICAN AUDIENCES, HENCE NOT ALL CELL PROVIDERS WILL WORK. As of right now, the most widely supported carrier for nothing phones is T-Mobile, I live in rural Tennessee and the connection in Tennessee can be spotty in more heavily wooded areas, however this is the same as any other large provider in my area, I've used Verizon and straight talk as well as mint mobile, mint being the worst. However having made the switch to T-Mobile and the switch to this phone, I can safely say I love having a mobile device again, especially one this eye-catching!!! I'm so glad this phone is well made and within a reasonable price range.

A Masterpiece of Value and Vision - Nearly Flawless! Stop what you're doing and just buy this phone. The Nothing Phone (2a) is nothing short of a revolution in the mid-range segment. It doesn't just compete; it completely redefines what we should expect for this price. From the moment you hold it, the unique, transparent design with the Glyph Interface feels special and premium. The performance is buttery smooth, handling everything from social media to demanding games without a single stutter. The battery life is an absolute marathon runner, easily lasting a day and a half of heavy use. But the real showstopper is the camera. The photos it produces are stunning. The color science is impeccable, offering vibrant, true-to-life shots with fantastic detail in both daylight and low-light conditions. It consistently delivers results that made me double-check I hadn't spent twice as much. My only wish for the future—and the reason this isn't a mythical "6-star" rating—is for Nothing to offer a variant with a massive 1TB storage option. For power users, photographers, and those who want to keep their entire media library on-device, that would make this phone the undisputed, perfect champion. Do not hesitate. This is the best value smartphone on the market today. It’s a bold, beautiful, and brilliantly executed device that proves you don't need to pay a fortune for a top-tier experience. Five dazzling stars.

Update to the below: the 5G problem came back (switched to 2G, which is completely useless). Restarting the phone seemed to fix it, at least for now. I'll be monitoring this issue. I needed an upgrade from my Pixel 3a. I had intended to get another Pixel but decided to give this a try, having read some good reviews. I've had it for about a week and so far I'm quite pleased. The on screen fingerprint sensor is quite reliable, unlike what I've heard about the newer Pixels. Battery life seems fine. The 256 GB storage is quadruple what my Pixel 3a offered, so that's a big plus. I'm not a huge fan of the Glyph interface and will likely turn it off - just flashy, no real purpose. I had a bit of trouble with 5g on day 1 but a technician at T-Mobile helped me sort that out. Sound quality is good on calls. The best part is the fact that the OS is nearly just a plain old Android OS with a few extras on top. Overall. I'm happy with the phone. Would have given 5 stars but the camera is pretty standard, nothing super special.

First time using this phone and I love it. It's very affordable for what your getting, the design is flagship level, the specs is good and have no logging problems,

I was genuinely excited about the Nothing Phone 2a after waiting a week for its delivery, but now I deeply regret this purchase. Straight out of the box, this phone has been nothing but a nightmare. It randomly stops working, the screen goes pitch black for several seconds, and then it either shuts down or restarts on its own—without me even touching it! This isn’t just an occasional glitch; it happens constantly, making the phone completely unreliable. Imagine trying to use your phone for something important, and it just dies on you. Then, after an unexpected reboot, you’re stuck waiting for it to start back up again. I bought this specifically because it claimed to support T-Mobile, but the connectivity is spotty at best. Calls drop, data is inconsistent, and I’m left with a phone that can’t even fulfill its most basic functions. To make matters worse, this is currently my only phone, and I depended on it. I was excited about the hype around the Nothing brand, but this experience has left me frustrated and stuck with an unreliable, malfunctioning device. Save your money and avoid this phone. It’s not worth the headache.

This phone is an excellent phone the only reason I brought it back is because the 3A nothing was coming out with better camera I would have bought it on Amazon but it was too high the price when you can go on nothing's website for 379 they went a little down in price but still $399 the 3A phone is an excellent phone compares to some thousand dollar excellent company works with AT&t and T-Mobile Verizon check with your provider beyond the best budget phone and great performance

Love this phone, great 2-3 day battery, screen is crystal clear and very fast. Ultra unique and will always bring questions

Hello public! I've been using this phone almost 2 weeks now. I'm a cheap man. I don't use a phone like most teenagers. Meaning I don't live on it and get all my facts from it! I use it for sms, mail, some apps for my work, and a few essentials I need in my daily life. This phone runs great! I didn't want to spend $1000 plus for a phone that'll run good yes, but I don't need that kind of phone. This phone is a great middle ground phone. Costs was just about what I would stomach and it runs fabulous. I'll be keeping my eye on this company in the future as I need to buy or replace phones. GREAT product. The ONLY thing I don't like is the volume buttons are on the left side of the phone and the power button is on the right. The way I grab the phone and lock it with the button or grab it to pick it up I end up taking screen shots. A lot. About 2-3 a day. But that's a me problem :) Just have to readjust my holding.
