Spatial Audio software support

ChaitanyaNarang

I am a Nothing Phone (2) user and am happy with the phone. Really love the OS and the overall design of the phone. But one thing missing in this phone in the software department is Spatial Audio software support for suported earphones. All brands including OnePlus, Motorola, Samsung and Pixel have the software support for Spatial Audio on their phones, but Nothing doesn’t. Since Spatial Audio really enhances listening experience, it would be great to have this too.

We are already missing HDR support on Netflix and don’t have Dolby Atmos either. It would be great to have Spatial Audio software support on existing Nothing Phones, at least on Phone (2) since it comes at a great price. OnePlus 11R, which is of the same price has this feature.

I have already written this several times under suggestions in the feedback section in phone settings but I don’t think anyone has ever considered it.

This is one of the reasons sometimes I feel Nothing Phone (2) over OnePlus 11R was a wrong choice. Please don’t let this become my permanent opinion.

Im sorry to break it to you, but from a brand perspective I don’t think we will be given new features with phone 2. Yes, we might have minor customisations and tweaks but major feature drops are conventionally reserved for the brand new releases only.

Nickman I don’t expect HDR support or anything like that, but spatial audio is something which is software based. OnePlus added it to their 10 Series through software updates. Nothing can do it too since it’s doable

I have been using my Phone 2 with my Galaxy Buds 2 since the last 8 months. Today I used my Galaxy Buds 2 on my wife’s 4 year old Samsung Galaxy M51. With Dolby Atmos and 360 degree audio support the listening experience was mind blowing. Wish there was similar support for Nothing phones.

MadOne I have a 5 years old A50 and the audio output from that with DolbyAtmos is genuinely better than Nothing’s latest flagship. Kinda wild.

MadOne You can change your theme by going in Settings > Search “Customization” > Choose “Colors” and select which ever color you want.

It would be White because of Android 14 Monochrome theme.

MadOne

Pranshu I have been doing that but still the tiles colors are white.

Pranshu

MadOne Can you share screenshot?

MadOne

Pranshu

MadOne No I meant to say,

First go to “Settings”
Search for “Customisation”
There you will find “Colours” option Click on it
There you will find different colours options
You can select which ever colour you want either from “Wallpaper Colours” or “Basic Colours”.

Hope it helps you!

MadOne

Pranshu tried all these but still tiles color remains white. I remember I could change those colors in 2.0.4

Pranshu

MadOne Can you share a screenshot of 2 Step which I mentioned
