It’s finally here. And yes. It really glows in the dark. 🧪 Back in March, we announced that we would be inviting our community to redesign Phone (2a). Wha...

halnici PR times is a pretty reliable source since the content should come directly from Nothing Japan so it is quite likely that this is true. In the original post of this thread, it was mentioned that more physical locations would be added.

halnici

dsychin Yes, it seems so!

I will look forward to hearing more!😺

StanShih

dsychin went through the whole thread, not sure where it says more physical locations would be added. the mods mentioned twice that 1000 is 1000 limited due to resource constraints, only that the community edition wallpapers will be released in the future.

CMF1_hacker so what’s struggling the price point then of CE or it’s not an affordability thing more a value worth thing?

honestly, I’m angry and new to the NOTHING ecosystem. I would’ve paid to show this phone 2aCE in front of the 400 students I teach. just late to the party I guess and my own fault.

sadly, it seems I need to fly to family to Japan immediately to resolve this issue.

I should dispatch some colleagues/friends around Europe/US instead.

AadityaChauhan bro how did you get both ! i registered but didn’t even got one…

tho it might be very hard, but might it be possible in any possible way you could sell one to me?

we don’t have drops here…

halnici

StanShih maybe, it’s referring to the last sentence in the original post “Drops & Events”.🙃

I ordered on flipkart ( India ) but my order is still processing and it says it’s put on hold and hasn’t even been confirmed yet even though Ive already done the payment too :/

Natalie ✨ I’m gutted i couldn’t get one…sat by my email all day and occasionally refreshing the store at the same time. If there’s no more to be had (i’m in N. Ireland so popping to Soho is a tad expensive, otherwise i’d camp out all night!) then i’ll just get he regular 2a+, i was putting it off until i was certain i couldn’t get a glowie. Regardless of my devastation, congratulations to all who did snag one, especially the talented winners of the competition. I’m in awe of what you have achieved and Nothing really needs a round of applause for nurturing such talent! I’m now off to tie a glow stick to my CMF1….👽

I think that it is must to make and sell more of this phones, many community members that want to buy it just not be able to do this.

Just got a notification that mine’s been shipped, excited. 🤩

zygerboy

freshj1ve man I envy you 🙂 Congratulations and post your experience with the new glowing phone.

freshj1ve

zygerboy sorry wasn’t flexing, just excited but thank you. Please don’t envy me, as I did want Nothing to have as many of these as possible. So real fans can get there hands on them! 😔 Can post some impressions when it arrives, had a Phone 2a previously and enjoyed the experience (minus Android Auto issue, but that got addressed eventually). Cheers! 🙂

Only 25 units are up for grabs here in the Philippines. I am not a lucky person, so I am most definitely expecting not to get one. In that case, will there be any more color variants for the Phone2aPlus in the future? Black and silver-grey look meh for me. I like the white and the CE.

Mine got delivered in a 16 hours after ordering. My Wife received from the Delivery Agent. She was saying the colour and hardware design is Retro and cozy to the eyes. Special thanks to the Winners @Astrid , @Kenta , @Andres_123 , @Ian_H_Simmonds & @Palmix Art. Congratulation to @Carl & @Akis for bringing this to the public.

Hello, I would like to ask if the Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition comes with the latest version? What is the difference in software between the Phone (2a) Plus and the Community Edition? How many updates will there be, and when can we expect Nothing OS 3.0? Please provide a bit more information about it.

Ealesy101

G_Stamatov - Hey, the Community Edition ships with Nothing OS 2.6, out of the box. In terms of software, it is no different to the standard (2a) Plus, they run the same OS.

However, with regards to how many updates, it is the usual 3 Years of Software Updates and 4 Years of Security Updates, as per all Nothing SmartPhones.

NothingOS 3.0 for Phone (2a) Plus is due for Beta in December and general release is TBC.

G_Stamatov The “brain” of the hardware is the same so you sohuld be able to download the current 3.0 (Android 15) beta as you would with the standrd 2(a) or 2(a) plus - I am running it on my 2a and it’s close to being fully stable and not buggy. Just my take….I could be wrong / often am!
