Exciting news, thoughtfull improvements. 🤩🤓

I was hoping to see audio recording from bluetooth when recording video in the camera improvemets.

Looking forward!

Merged 2 posts from Concerns About Nothing OS 3 Release for Nothing Phone 2.

I believe the biggest competitor to Phone 2 is Phone 2a. I recall that when Phone 2a was launched, the software update for Phone 2 was delayed by the Nothing software team. Since then, it seems that their top priority has shifted towards Phone 2a 😀.

DerMann254 Yes, comparing Samsung with Nothing, a brand with less than 5 years of development would be a great comparison… Samsung has been doing phones before Android was a thing, this is not comparable

DerMann254 I used my brain, which is why I explicitly referred to the beta version! Please do me a favor and read carefully first before advising others to use their brains 😃

It’s not the final version. If it were about that, then I would agree that it is worth discussing. But a huge fuss is being made here because of a beta.

If I update it on beta released UI.

Shall I get the original UI when it will be released?

Or once I get the Beta UI. I will become the beta tester for ever?

JCPH Its true what you have said, and I strongly agree with you and understand that Nothing is a very new player. but my only point is if nothing has more data, it will give them a clear plan based on priorities. Releasing beta for one specific device and late release for another with an interval of one month for every device its a long period to work for. But if major problems are heard from the community (yes, many will make the noise but also provide valid feedback) that team nothing can look up and priorities it accordingly. It might reduce the overall release timeframe. Beta hardly carry major bugs as teams have already tried and tested with 100s of conditions.

    zygerboy Who even says they have a build ready for the Nothing Phone 2 and 1? They use different architectures, a different chipset. Since this is also updating to Android 15, I find it pretty likely that they may still be working on porting the device to that OS.

    to those wondering why 2a got it first it may be because they already complied NOS3 for 2A during the CBT stages.

    The other phones didn’t get it yet because they need to compile it for each and every phone.

    What a joke man! Imagine paying more and a midrange phone from the company getting priority in S/w updates (whether it’s Hotfix update or Security Patch Update or Open Betas) + that midrange device got so many camera fix/optimization updates meanwhile they’ve deprived their top-tier smartphone from this. Didn’t even bother to improve the camera in NOS 2.0 & 2.5.

    I’ve both Spacewar and Pong (Phone 1 & Phone 2) and trust me, in many scenarios my Phone 1 takes better pictures than Phone 2 ,in terms of video recording, obviously phone 2 is better but this clearly shows how dedicated the team is with the Pong’s user experience improvements. Didn’t expected this from Nothing team.

    Well, Nothing is the new Xiaomi, after this move by team, I’ll definitely consider Pixel or Samsung for my future purchase!

      now i’m update NOS 3.0 and i’m have bluetooth bug problem. i’m can’t pairing with Razer Hummerhead Wireless earbuds.

      Update - Now it’s fixed thanks 🙏

      AryamanSrivastava_vP7a3gRDLf See ya, this kind of closed mind thinking really isn’t helping anyone. Have you considered that maybe a open beta is not meant for you to enjoy “because you paid more”, but meant to find bugs and receive feedback on new features? Have you considered that it takes time to update an entire OS to a new version and that it might not be done at the same time when updating multiple devices? Have you nothing better to do then to whine when you don’t get to “play with the new cosmetics first”?
