Hey Nothing Fam,

I’m proud owner of Nothing phone 2 12gb 512gb black varient and 2 cmf gan charger black.

I have been keenly following Carl from oneplus from beginning of his oneplus term, and recommended many users to buy oneplus 3 when it was launched in India, and now i suggested nothing phone 1 to 4 friends and nothing phone 2 for 5 friends, everyone feels happy with their purchase,

But recently seen many early buyers are disappointed with the pricing in recent time especially this December sale offer in flipkart was a great deal for many nothing phone 2 new users but it was huge disappointment for many who supported you in early stages as this was the main hot topic of discussion in nothing phone 2 group in telegram, many are saying they won’t purchase nothing phone 3 and future products this may affect the future sales

Some solutions I can offer from others

1, this solution I read in the group, offering cmf buds for early buyers for free, it can help you to get early customers loyalty

2 it’s my own solution, how oneplus 9 series was launched with 2 major os cycle and 3 years security update and later they increased to 4 major os cycle and 5 years security update like this I want nothing phone 2 to increase their phone os update policy cycle, major os update to 4 cycle and security updates to 5 years it can be great future for all nothing phone 2 customers

To make it interesting and make more people to be your loyal customers and help in repeat recurring purchase of nothing products in future, increase 1 year more for nothing phone 1 users also 3 major os Cycle update and 4 security update, it will make them also more happy.

Hope you consider this change in the name of futuristic vision of nothing company for the betterment of nothing community.

Thank you all

what a solution bro , i feel the same for company i bought PHONE (2) on first 5 minutes of launch and now price is slashed too much , and i don’t think they mind giving free buds as SALES was low so they don’t need to spend much

BUT IT SEEMS NO ONE WILL LISTEN TO THIS AND ANSWER US

BTW which telegram group is it which you mentioned?

    kaushal_desai they will remove it using name of ceo, unless many see this and like this thread there is a chance of getting more update. First they told me tagging is against community guidelines fine but they remove post for stating for good things.

    Even I got strike warning for this post from adbo maybe deleted, who knows, it annoys me though I don’t stop posting my views.

    I changed not tagging any members so I don’t know what they have issue now

    They all want to hear only fake promise of nothing doing great, nothing is fantastic. Not genuine feedback from customers.

    Not thinking about whether they are loyal to them or not.

    If it goes like this then I see downfall for them.

    Sad to see from nothing team.

    From a sustainability perspective and reducing waste, can’t Nothing company look for a prolonged software updates including security updates, similar on the lines of Samsung. Or alternatively, can’t they have a fee based software/ security update ( like we have an extended warranty for many products for a fee, again I believe it will be industry first) . Changing phones just because there are no support available from the company is such a shame. Can’t be anything done on this front to reduce the e waste

    Merged 6 posts from OS Update Cycle Policy Change like ONEPLUS 9 and Extended Software & Security Update .

    Now moto also joins 5 years update club. Atleast nothing should consider this for their flagship phones.

      Jerin Jose not only fo flagship line, for mid rangers too it should be 5 years of os updates like in samsung/motorolla/pixel line.

      The market is a hard place to be at these competitive times full of different phone models for Nothing Phones to stand out & make more demands on the market I would urge Nothing team to consider upgrades of the software updates to five (5) years of updates just like how Google Pixel devices have done to their old devices currently.

      Trust me if they implement this bold move to their devices I am certain they will conquer the market so easily because most of the users love updated devices & I am sure Nothing devices can handle major software updates without any problems.

        Merged 1 post from Os Upgrades to five years for older devices.

        RapidZapper But still our Qualcomm chipsets are stronger than the Tensor chipset and am sure Nothing can handle more than the Google chipset even if they make there own chipsets

        RapidZapper I made a search for how many updates can Nothing phone 1, Nothing phone 2,Nothing phone 2a and 2a plus. Nothing phone 1 and phone 2 can support a 4 years of os update according to the sources given here.

        Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 chipset is a flagship chipset and it can for sure support 4 years atleast . I can understand 5 years is a bit too much to ask from a 4 years brand. But I personally don’t feel it too much to ask for a extension of 1 more year which is 4 year. The chipset is capable of doing it then why not?

        Please consider this as a request and do the needed.

          BassimBinYoosaf Well that’s up to Snapdragon, actually End of Life of this specific chip is set on Android 15 and we’re getting Android 16 which is already a +1 over normal limitation

          @“RapidZapper”#p123180

          Okkay I agree on the side of Nothing phone 1 it has a increased software policy. But Nothing phone 2 was started from the beginning of Android 13 and Android 16 is just 3 years and there is no extended period in it. Actually in Samsung galaxy z fold 4 snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 was used from Android 12 and it will recieve upto Android 16 that is a proper 4 year.

          So if the manufacturing brand wishes to increase the software they can take it one more year as Nothing phone 2 used snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 from Android 13 to Android 17

          Leave all other things ahead . Nothing introduced Nothing Phone 2 as their flagship model. Most new flagship phones gives their user 4 years of software update.

            Technology advances very quickly every year we have more powerful and efficient processors and with this the software adapts to the hardware.

            For me it is pure marketing of companies offering long periods of updates just to keep their customers happy, but they forget the quality that will be of a nothin phone 2 when you pass those 5 years, I assure you that it will be slow or lacking certain functions that You will not be able to operate well due to your already obsolete hardware

            I am satisfied with the company and I see that they compare many characteristics of other brands, but that is the beauty of this large market, we have to choose if they do not like the proposal, go with another brand, of course there are deficiencies in nothing but if they really want It is better to ask for a company with common sense, not like children throwing a tantrum because they don’t put or do things the way they want.

              I agree with your point but if you make a search yourself you can find that snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 is a chipset which is capable of even handling 5 years of software update. In such a case the brand should be providing atleast a 4 years of OS update. That is a basic necessity of a user.

              As an Indian user , most Indians uses a device to its maximum lifetime. So it will be a good decision if they bring 1 more OS year for their users.

                RapidZapper

                I agree that it is an Android 12 processor. But it was used from Android 13 so technically 1 year of OS update can be added by the manufacturing brand by requesting to Qualcomm
