It would be great!!! 5 year!!!

I think nothing could add some nice dense system, more device customization, more glyph options I think nothing could add some nice dense system, more device customization, more glyph options and better phone vibration customization

GnaneshwarReddyDyapa sir, stop being in the side of nothing. Think from our perspective

I’m not posting from anyone’s side besides my own. There’s a lot of claims being made about a young company, that’s still finding it’s feet, and people are demanding things that you currently only get from a company with 10+ years of experience. It doesn’t make any sense.

On top of that, people claiming and saying things without any feedback or constructive criticism doesn’t help anyone does it? I care about all opinions, but just saying something without anything to back it up, or support it, is as useful as trying to use a fork to eat soup.

    PardhanSingh sorry, I don’t agree with you, as much as I would want nothing to step up but it is a process and you, all of us chose to be part of this process.

    An ambiguous comment or feedback will not help resolve the issue, rather be more specific.

    As a Mechanical engineer and Product Designer to my knowledge for the scale at which Nothing is working Vs other big players the price Vs features could not be matched at all. The supply chain, inventory, operations it is a lot to sum it up. Others are at much more advantage than nothing.

    If you didn’t make yourself aware of it, it is your lack of understanding of your needs. As a user you should know what you want and what you’d like to pay for.

    I have a Pixel and Nothing phone(1) , I love my camera on the phone(1) and the UI is much better than the pixel. There are certain questions about certain things but it’s of least importance.

    Attention to detail is on point with Nothing devices, on pixel there places you don’t have symmetry, certain features don’t change corresponding to your theme(light/dark). This is what makes me a proud user of nothing devices and these are the things you should look into and appreciate from a Startup company.

    Again there are issues with every devices in the market and making everyone happy isn’t possible. Please use this an opportunity to give specific feedbacks and ideas( community ideas are being appreciated by everyone) and make the best out of it.

    Louis ☕️ hey add some nothing styles clocks on lock screen and make the pure dark mode(black) and enhance the camera. Thanks.

    PardhanSingh

    At least I agree on camera issue….!!

    In the new updated camera is ruined…black line on face is coming. Camera is not at all stand in front of samsung, oneplus, iphone.

    Trust me realme, redme takes better picture…!!

    Vishwam

    I’m also with @Louis ☕️ but the thing is somewhere @PardhanSingh is not totally wrong.

    I understand that the company is new & it takes time to settle but the thing is if a new company wants to settle in this throat cut competition market then what others are doing after 8-10 years, it has to do with the very beginning.

    Cuz, those brands are well established and has loyal customers & built the trust by now. And is @changename wants to survive & triumph it can’t make an excuse that they are in new in market.

    I know it will take time but if customer don’t get what they are getting from well established brands then why would they prefer a new brand.

    For example, compare the pixel 7a & nothing phone 2.

    7a is cheaper but if we compare the camera quality and AI features it provides, nothing 2 is not even close.

    Even for editing pictures we have to purchase google one or use third party app which is not what we expect while giving ₹55000 for nothing 2

      PardhanSingh Completely Agreed, It should provide minimum 5 years of software updates to standout from other brands.

      It should work on the Camera and other useful settings.

      I think compared with glyph updates other useful settings, camera and performance updates are more important.

      HKBardia

      By this reasoning, you never do anything to shake any industry… Of course a well established brand can produce much more polished devices, it’s how the industry works. And OF COURSE, a newcomer that try something new has product that are most of the time less feature rich for the same price or higher. Again, it’s how industry works… You can’t compete with an established brand that sell millions and millions of phones and that can cut the price for everything they produce. It’s just logical.

      You compare a 7a, that is owned by the company making the OS and can optimise everything in app like the camera and the phone 2… It’s like comparing carrots and potatoes…

      Of course Nothing needs to improve, but we never found a newcomer that sticks this long with quality product since OnePlus… or maybe Xiaomi ? And even if we take Xiaomi’s phone, they were complete garbage is the early days and for yearssssss.

      Conclusion, yes Nothing needs to expand and be staffed accordingly in the software department (as it’s THE principal selling point in smartphone nowadays), but they also need to need burn there foot by etanding too fast.

      Well, the way of saying your opinion is quite decisive. Most of your points are valid. Even I wouldn’t like to buy a Nothing Phone after using the Phone 1 unless Nothing releases something amazing in the next 2 years. I would rather have a Samsung or a Pixel.

      But the 5 years of update policy will make the company cater to a very small section of the userbase using a 5 years old mobile. A company with actual data points will make a better decision with it by seeing how many people are actually using a 5 years old mobile. People usually change within 3-4 years.

      They can do some really good marketing and sell products by promising 5 years of updates. Whether they actually deliver them is another thing

      PardhanSingh

      PardhanSingh Agree on some of this, as Nothing reach 3rd Gen of their devices they do need to show more of the innovation that has been talked about… however, this feedback is mostly useless.

      Dude, come up with specific suggestions for improvements rather than wasting your time just saying how bad everything is next time. Prime example, use AI in everything… what are you talking about? AI needs to be implemented in way that actually enhances the user experience. So what are the suggestions for that? Maybe take inspiration from Rabbit R1 to make common actions easier on a phone, is that what you are really asking for here?

      The OnePlus 12 launch has been widely praised because they focussed on things that actually matter to the User. Circle to search looks cool, but actually faster charging or better battery is still way more important to 99% of users…

      Louis ☕️ What exactly are you expecting from a start up company? Remember that Nothing is only 3 years old, whilst the other brands within the market all have at least 10+ years of experience.

      I would disagree with you though, Nothing OS alone has a lot of extraordinary things that other brands do not give their users, let alone the Glyphs found on the rear of the devices and their functionality.

      start-up should excite us. camera is basic. pls look at the way how bad nothing captures pics. people looks better on screen before clicking capture button. once you take a picture it goes for a toss with your very bad processing. I took a picture with my dad. once my nothing 2 processed the pic, it looks like I’ve been added by a bad photoshop skills, it doesn’t look natural. pls pls fix camera 🙏. we all bought your gadgets to support you guys. don’t escape saying start-up. basics needs to be strong. camera is one of it.

        SrikanthKanakala start-up should excite us

        So there wasn’t anything about Nothing that excited you? I think there’s heaps to be excited about, from the unique design choices, the minimalistic (and smooth) OS, the Glyph interface, widgets as well as the whole thing around having a new brand entering the market, doing something a bit different.

        I can’t do anything to fix anyone’s camera concerns, I don’t work for Nothing 😆 I think there needs to be some level of patience and acceptance though from everyone, that Nothing is still a new team, with small resources compared to most other brands in the same market. Over time, I’d imagine the resource towards certain elements like the camera, for example, will improve and develop.

        Remi F Yeah after that they nerfed the camera performance. That mkbhd review won’t hold a candle now. It doesn’t even have HDR on/off toggle. How much does it take to add one? I guess nothing need billions to do that. Lol.

        Nothing is spending lot of money on marketing and advertisement which is good for the company and it will surely help you to increase your brand value.

        But the thing is that when it comes to compare your phone with other brands you don’t even consider any other existing Android based brand that can compete with you rather you directly compare your self to the legendary iphones.

        So my question is …it is you who compare your phone directly to the iphones and give a false hope to the people that this phone is the best alternative of iphones.( By creating bogus hype with famous youtubers)

        Now by watching the YouTube videos and your CEO comparison video on nothing phone 2 and iPhone I made my mind that if Carl is saying this much good words about the phone 2 it means it is surely a good product ( because Carl is having a good image which he got from OnePlus) and I don’t know how many more user have purchased this phone just by looking that comparison video.

        If you boldly comparing your phone to iPhone then your phone should have parallel features like iphones too.

        Don’t just start crying like a baby when user started asking you about your claims that you have made earlier.

        Do not hide your self behind a 3 yr old firm tag because it is not going to help you anymore. We the people of India are not fool.

        Give us what we pay for it or face the harsh and difficult questions which will definitely come to you everyday.

        If you can’t give us a video capturing ability like the same iPhone which has been compared with phone 2 by your CEO than just take down the comparison video from the you tube and every social media platforms.

        False claims, fake hype and grabbing innocent peoples pocket will cost you one day ..mark my words.

        Give us what we deserve.

          SrikanthKanakala Camera quality is very subjective… that’s why MKBHD test is the only viable test. The fact that Phone (2) have a very good place in Price/Performance regarding camera performance. It’s just facts over thousands and thousands of people voting blindly… So maybe it’s not to your taste, but then you need to pay more for better performance, you cannot have their cake and eat it too…
          It’s just a fact that the camera is not as people as shout in the forum…

          For @PardhanSingh, you clearly don’t know how marketing works. Nothing is using almost 0 penny for marketing compare to ALL other brands in the smartphone world. They are just using their Instagram and YouTube, sometimes tech reviewer. That’s all, you don’t see TV add etc…

          When people buy the phone, they know that there is 3 year of major update, it has never been hide.
          And again the video that compare the Iphone with the Phone(2) is a marketing video that primarily focus on features and what the phone has to offer for its price, FOR ITS PRICE. And it’s always mentioned…

          But anyway it seems that people can’t take a foot backward to have an overview of what’s going on, then never mind it’s not even worth trying debating…
