From which brand you came to Nothing and how it's going?

I came to Nothing after around 10 years with Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco phones and i really happy with the move i did,

I like the clean OS I missed it terribly, i like the customization of colors and widgets, minimal design, It’s just feel right to use the device like Nothing.

And what your’s story?

vovan-v very similar, I had Xiaomi/Poco phones and was tired of miui, especially lot of popping up advertisements, sticked to system apps.

hey there,

i bought NP2 in December 2023, after 4 years of using my OnePlus 5. Two genius devices made by Carl, i love both my devices till date and i use them in my daily drive as primary and secondary phones respectively.

my OnePlus 5 has an amoled display of 5.5 inches and has 8 gigs of ram with 128 gb of storage, pretty much everything one could ask for in 2019 or so. it has a snapdragon 835 compared to my current phones 8+ gen 1.

i upgraded my OnePlus’s OS from Oxygen OS10 to PixelExperience 13, a custom rom made for OnePlus devices who want PixelOS.

what i realised is i miss the physical navigation buttons much from my old phone because they helped me out in gestures and faster fingerprint sensor. i won’t lie about it but OnePlus 5 with Oxygen OS has one of the fastest face unlocks too, Carl should really bring that speed to Nothing as we expect that delivery from this brand as well.

I am very happy with my NP2 and I can’t wait to buy nothing ear open soon as well, i hope the prices drop in upcoming sales

I dont really like to change devices I use one phone for at least like 5 years or so. coz moving data and all is pain for me. plus getting used to new device takes time. I was on samsung before. I will switch to other phone by time when android 17 will come or so. works well for me. I wasnt looking for new phone coz all phones are SO BIG, I like handy phones more. I was gonna go for pixel 6 but then nothing came, didnt give a thought on it after seeing carl and the OS and all. happy with whole decision.

Jay Man i used poco f1 for 6 months then i got myself iphone se2 used it for 1 month and sold it now I’m on 2a but the main issue is that in low brightness levels the display flickers and when the phone is on always on display it causes a screen burn please reply and help me or tell me if you’ve faced an issue like that please bro I’m very worried my phone is only 2 days old!

Coming from Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, the A13 update killed it’s motherboard so I had to daily drive my 13 which I did not like because there is no PowerAmp for IOS plus no Lossless Codecs on it for bluetooth. So I bought a Phone (2) and I gotta say! One of the best decision honestly because unlocking it’s BL is easy and along with rooting(I use USB Sample Rate Unlocker)! Clean OS and close to stock Android, Better Battery, and yep… no deadly updates!

Came from a redmi device, ran custom roms and great gcam support. So everything was exceptionally good except for processing power. Nothing seemed nice. And it is,except for the camera. It’s stable and smooth, doesn’t require much tinkering to daily it. If the camera improves significantly I’ll stick with Nothing or I’ll switch to another device like Xiaomi 14s and Vivo X100s of the world cause 🤷🏽‍♂️love taking photos bro.

Jay

harshit009 well, my phones background is pitch black , I did it for battery saving and save my phone from pixel burning. my brightness is always on 5 or 10% inside. I dont like bright screens. I never used AOD in my whole as well. and from what you mentioned, I never faced any issues like that.

I came from Samsung. Missing a lot of features like

Universal search
One hand operation+ (ubikitouch is a good alternative)
Modes and routines
Gallery app & tags feature.

Ravi From Samsung here too. I need to say that overall my experience with my Nothing CMF1 is fine and good. However I agree with you : the missing of routines and lack of support for eSim is a thumb down for me

Had Huawei, considered iPhone. Found Nothing as I felt like it gave me iPhone style hardware, with an edge, a growing ecosystem and, amazing software. Haven’t looked back!

So I was on the Google Pixel train, but then I thought I’d give the Nothing 2a a go. It seemed super unique to me as a tech lover, and I really liked its clean OS. I also appreciate how transparent they are and that they listen to their audience. However, my biggest gripe is that it’s not very smooth; it has these annoying microstutters and sometimes feels a bit choppy, even when it’s not overheating. And let’s be real, the camera’s AI processing isn’t that impressive either. Hopefully, they’ll sort it out with an software update!

I came from Xiaomi.

Of course the design, the hardware and the software of Nothing are pretty cool, but for me the main reason to switch was the idea of growing together with the company. Started with Nothing OS 1 and by the end of the year we’ll see Nothing OS 3 and I love to see this development 😊

"I’ve just passed 12th grade, and this is my first smartphone—Nothing Phone 2a. When I passed 12th, I had the choice to buy any phone up to 30,000 INR, and I chose the Nothing Phone 2a. But this has been the worst decision of my life. I wish I had bought a Samsung phone instead. This will be my first and last phone from the Nothing company.

Coming from POCO X4 GT. Tbh i downgrade a few things such as charging speed, chipset performance and 3.5mm audio jack. But the user experience when using Nothing OS made it worth to change to Nothing 2a. Feels a lot clean and smooth using Nothing OS compared to MIUI especially no bloatware or ads. So far, i love my 2a a lot!

Jay how to turn background pitch black as uve mentioned?

Jay

harshit009 use black background without anything.
