Louis But to be Frank , The cameras need a great workaround. Front, Main and UW. HDR processing is worse. Sharpness and details are more to be desired. Even after updating to 2.5.2, it still bad for a phone that has such a great camera hardware and ISP. No hate on the team behind it but out of all aspects of phone 2, Camera performance is a lot to be desired. It doesn’t even have a HDR on/off toggle. A phone with a price of Rs. 10,000/- has it.
juelali carl pei wasn’t CEO of OnePlus, he only worked in marketing and Software department
I want an answer from Nothing. Why they are not able to resolve the HDR issue? I believe the screen is not enough bright.
PardhanSingh I agree with camera performance since super zoomed in photos just get over processed but the glyphs aren’t trash their honestly useful and super fun, I greatly enjoy have that touch of fun and nothing has the best UI. U miss the point with alot of things abt nothing. If ur a boomer go buy an iphone for same crap every year and then it’ll explode in 5 yrs. Features for students? What does that even mean lmao, the user experience nothing delivered is the best compared to most Androids and iphone. Really is perfection that aesthetic monotonous shade it gives to everything, I bet u use normal colours on ur nothing. U miss the mark with ur points, this phone isn’t like those safe play boring companies and it’s for techies not clowns
Please give stable update..
PardhanSingh You are right. There is nothing any interesting features except glyph light and some other features in nothing os.
Louis sir, stop being in the side of nothing. Think from our perspective. When initially nothing phone 1 was released no one was interested in it. Phone 1 got it’s hype by end of year. People stated that phone has become extraordinary because of software updates. Nothing gave 2 updates a month which included both improvemental and security updates. After announcing nothing phone 2 the frequency of rolling updates have been slowed down. As phone 2 released the updates were coming too late. They said that we are working on new NOTHING OS. The nothing os released for phone 2. But they said they will be releasing it for phone 1 by end of the year. From the release of nothing phone 2, phone 1 stopped getting updates, updates were given ones in a blue moon.
People expected regular software updates like which were rolled out in January, February and March of 2023 throughout the span which other phone manufacturers were not able to provide. Contrary to the expectations, Nothing stopped rolling updates for phone 1 , which is unacceptable.
It’s been 3 months since last stable update rolled out for nothing phone 1. November 23rd is the recorded date for release of os 2.0.5.
Why so? Why nothing too behaving alike other smartphone manufacturers. Upon releasing successor why keeping older phone 1 aside? We people didn’t buy phone 1 expecting this…
Also nothing sent invitation for NOS closed beta.
Which many people agreed to join and share feedbacks. When they agreed and joined into closed beta and open beta is rolled out. Nothing should also show a way to downgrade to open beta right?
Why nothing didn’t provide? Why just ignored the people who were in closed beta. Nothing was saying need to flash whole os via adb.for which no guide was provided. It was a big heck flashing os. When upgrading to closed beta was too easy why downgrading is not? When updates and os were shown as selling point then that should be strong.
Join the telegram channel of nothing phone global. You will be able to experience wide variety of problems with phones and complaints. Using these platforms where people can’t join or familiar with and conducting these type of discussions are not gonna work.
I didn’t mean to degrade or humiliate the company. I am just trying to explain our perspective. Phone 1 still have many bugs which I reported. Work on them rather than releasing new phones. We consumers didn’t expect this and buy phone. In India, smartphone is an investment for parents for their children. Regretting or losing the value of investment hurts a lot. Hope you and nothing understands this, Works and helps consumers.
Even this post needs approval/ moderation right?
PardhanSingh nahh no one will use this processor for more than 3 years, I think at most 3 years os update is needed instead of 2, and they should continue allowing unlocking the bootloader like they currently do, the custom rom support especially phone 1 has is just excellent
So you expect a new brand to provide updates like other tech giants (Samsung/iPhone). They’re not even as big as OnePlus and OnePlus still provides 4yrs of OS updates. 3 years of OS from a new brand like Nothing is commendable and they will eventually increase their support with future devices as they get bigger
PardhanSingh 5 year OS update for nothing phone 2 would be a game changer for this brand by doing so nothing would still keep the game on and can easily compete with OnePlus 12 R and Samsung S23 FE.
Who even uses their device for 5years? The people who uses a device for more than 4years won’t even think of getting new os updates. OnePlus 12R have Snapdragon 8Gen2 bro, how in the world are you trying to compare it’s functionalities with Snapdragon 8+Gen 1 that Nothing Phone 2 have? Mark my words all these Ai things will be paid after 1 or 2 years. Don’t know actually but from my research i find out that the Ai functions are based on Hardware capabilities. So Snapdragon 8Gen3 have more Ai capabilities than Sd 8+gen1 .
PardhanSingh Stop justifying your glyph light by giving us useless updates because ur new updates and new features are not going to make your glyph trash anymore usefull.
How can they not update or give features to Glyph since it’s one of their identities. Maybe you may find it not useful but some glyph features are useful. Also you can turn it off
PardhanSingh Work on your camera software.
This is on point. The brand needs more work on their camera software. For a device costs more than 40,000 INR the camera performance is very weak. Missing most basic features like
1 HDR On/Off toggle
2 Night Sight On/Off toggle
3 Anti-Banding settings
4 Better Zooming Quality
5 Better Color Aberration control
6 Manual Video mode
7 Dedicated Long Exposure Modes
8 Timed Burst Shoot mode
9 Minimum Focus range in Normal photo mode
PardhanSingh Make your UI super simple and minimalistic so that an old age person can also operates it without scratching their head.
I don’t find any issues with the overall ui of Nothing Phone, Just change the ucon pack to “DEFAULT” from “NOTHING” and increase the icon size and font size in settings and give it to the old age people, they will easily you the device
PardhanSingh Give us utilities features that is easy to understand and simple to use.
Bro fr ? What is there in the OS which is not understandable?
There are no bloatwares, or waste like Hot apps and Hot games too.
Yes brother, you are right in the current era of technology. If you don’t give updates for five years, nothing people will recognize the phone. So nothing is my request to the company to update the phone for five years and make it work better after software and camera.
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.
ChaitanyaNarang sounds like you should get a vivo x100 or Nubia z60 ultra. Lol
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.
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…!!
