Nothing OS is Painful.

Congratulations on being an early adopter and being a tester for the company.

As the old saying goes, never purchase a first release from any company. It is bound to be buggy since the company is in the learning stages wrt everything, hardware, software. Frankly, NP1/NOS for NP1 was a pre-sale device. The phone 2 was an actual NP1 in a true sense since they got to understand the issues plaguing their software, hardware in NP1 and then not committing the same mistake.

It happens with all the companies. You trusted them and they failed to deliver. What were you expecting?

I am not trolling or anything. I understand the frustration. But we can move on and let this company mature enough in 5-8 years and then see if Nothing is still a brand worth considering or have they already closed down!

The company don’t even care about customers they just drop some features updates that no one use and for fixing the issue that users face they don’t care

I second this (software engineer and have a NP1) .

I put my trust in Carl since I had a good expirence with OnePlus. but this one has made me avoid buying very first products of any company.

Anyways it’s becoming almost 2 years I’ll probabaly stick to this phone for one more year and then dump it and get a samsusng galaxy or an iphone as my next one. I’m really tired of unfinshed products.

I regret buying my NP2. Everything is below my expectations.

MuhammadZiyad nothing phones and earbuds are unfinished products, I pity the people who keep on buying them just because there is too much of hype for them.

The camera on nothing phone 1 is horrible and if you say this in the community, the moderators hide your posts and/or give you a warning.

Wolverine you are write bro, nothing focus only currently lunched product and no proper testing before software update.

What’s stopping you from installing custom roms? Don’t expect any forum support from here.

I’m waiting for NOS 3.0 if it sucks, custom rom it is. And next phone is prolly not gonna be nothing. Came for a great experience but both the software and camera (NP2) reallyyyyy disappointed me. They were comparing themselves to iPhones and samsungs of the world and hyped up so much and gave “Nothing” in return. Ah, the irony.

RavishKumar just voice your problems, there’ll always be blind fan boys that hate on criticisms

No OS/Company is perfect, my experience with:

Samsung A30s (OneUI) - too much bloatware in the UI. The RAM management is crap and its a pain to use it as a daily driver cause duh, nothing uninstalls! Smasnug Pay for no reason, Smasnug health, Smasnug Max(what in the world is this) and more BS!

Redmi Note 10 Pro Max (MIUI) - My phone is dead because of a single update. It was a disaster because I wasn’t alone. Plus the ads in the UI along with the bloatware.

iPhone 13 (IOS) - No multitasking, bad for audiophiles(no Hi-Res along with a good equaliser), No AOD, very poor customisation plus everything on the screen feels very crowded(my opinion)!

Phone 2 (NOS) - bad RAM management, terrible battery after most of the updates, still lacks feature it should have had from the start.

I don’t blame though, the battery was terrible everywhere (except iPhone or so I thought but turns out, the idle drain was off charts because the numbers barely moved infront of me) but not as bad as NOS! There is no bloatware too. NOS just needs some work, lets see what 3.0 puts on the table!

M1st brother I like Nothing ui but after Android 14 update many problems occurs.

M1st try NP2a the battery life is great and RAM managment too.

But no UI is perfect pixel phones has a lot bugs too becouse a lot of updates.

Malix since you are a software engineer I have a question for you. I play Efootball2024. It was running perfectly well without any heating at all at highest settings. After 2.5, 2.6 updates it heats up quickly and starts dropping frames. While other games like COD Mobile run perfectly. What could be the reason? I have reset the device multiple times but still no solution.
