Thoughts on small/compact form factor phones

display must be 5.5′'

Is nothing working on a smaller pro phone, if not should they?

I don’t why all company are making 6.7 or 6.8 inch phone , not perfect the pocket size and uncomfortable.

I suggest you focus on 6 inch screen phone with good configuration.

You will lead the market.

Thank you

I wanted to make a thread on a compact nothing phone for the longest time, but the question is how compact ??? We have iphone mini size, zenfone size, vanilla model iphone, S-series galaxy and pixel ; then we have 6.3 inch sweet spot, where the size isn’t too large, nor it is too small (for packing all the necessary hardware for the flagship). Right now 2 phones comes in this size Xiaomi 14 and iphone 15 Pro. Both phone pack great hardware, large battery, triple camera setup. Just 2 days back, Xiaomi 14 had a global launch and the phone is great, it is everything that a compact flagship can be, just one negative - Bloated HyperOS experience (which is not a major problem, it can sorted with few setups). Take Xiaomi 14 for instance, put NothingOS on it, get a transparent nothing back without any glyphs (maybe one or two for the identity) and boom, Instant hit !!! Xiaomi has partnered with Leica for it’s camera. Nothing came collab with Fujifilm and get fujifilm film recipes in their camera app. That way their camera problem will also get sorted.

I really hope someone from Nothing reads this and take some notes. If you call yourself a neesh brand then you should give this a thought.

(and one more thing, I like how you have gone for a minimal glyph setup with phone (2a), in your future nothing phone releases, keep it this way, keep the glyphs minimal, don’t make it a cringe fest. Your identity is transparency not glyphs. MOVE OVER IT !!!)

I hope nothing creates a phone between 5.4″ to 5.7″. Currently using pixel 6a only because it’s the best value for money compact option.I would still buy if it is a flagship product by nothing, but size matters!

Hi Nothing Team,

As we gone through some brands but rest of 2 or 3 brands only making the compact size phone like less then 6.5 inch screen and they are not pocket friendly.

Please make a compact size phone for those users like me in pocket friendly price.

Iam planing to keep 2 phones, iam already going to buy S 24 ultra next month. But I also want a good compact phone use, which comfortable to carry ( which is hand friendly).

If there will be a compact phone then I will definitely wait for it .

How about introducing a smaller or compact version of our beloved Nothing phones in the lineup? A size around 6.2 inches or similar could be a game-changer for those looking for a more manageable device without compromising on functionality.

The Dream:
Nothing Less (2)

• 6″ AMOLED screen (1080p)

• Snapdragon 7+ Gen2

• 8GB

• Sony 48 MP double stacked sensor

• 4500 mAh

• 479$

The phones have been getting bigger and bigger nowadays, personally I absolutely love small compact phones

I loved the asus zenfone and its size sadly its not available where I live

The galaxy S23 was the perfect size phone I feel

A small nothing phone 2a or a nothing phone mini with different colors having a different glyph light structure would be brilliant

Can we also have RGB glyph lights Iam sure you saw MKBHD’s video he had this suggestion it would make a lot of sense if a particular app will show its own color it would be so convenient

Also some improvements in the post processing of the photos and better night photography camera would be great

Also an alert slider like one plus and apple would be great too

A green , yellow,blue nothing phone would be great

I have nothing phone 1 and it’s very user friendly and gives me amazing experience while using it. I always loved the size of iPhone se 3 very compact and handy because of its design and slim body. I believe the next nothing phone should be in two variants one should be of iPhone se 3 size and other should be regular one. The camera module should also be on the left side of the phone just like other phone but if possible then the size of the phone should be small as compared to other phones. I hate when company just focus on camera quality instead of focusing on camera size as well as camera quality because of this aesthetic looks of phone becomes dull and howdy, because of that reason I bought nothing 1 last year, I had an option of buying oneplus 11r. Regarding glyph light sometimes it feels cheap and sometimes it feels unique. I am kind of lean towards professional phones which has simple, classy, elegant looks just like iPhone 8 or any two module iPhone camera. The company should even focus on software updates for 5 years or if they have funds then they should make their operating system rather than using Android. Every company in the market is using Android. They should make os like iOS or blackberry ecosystem. Software updates should be for atleast 5 years.
