I purchased the new Nothing 2a and after use for around 3 weeks I’m not 100% happy with the performance of the phone.
Yes it does give a premium look and feel, but the camera experience can be better, there are still some glitches.
The double tap sleep and wake is unresponsive most of the times.
Charging the phone is a task even with rapid charging. My OnePlus Nord2 even after 3 years of continuous use charges from 20-100 in 20min, while Nothing takes eternity to charge. Min time from 20-100 is 40min. Yes the battery does last longer than OnePlus which is a plus point.
I hope some updates are done in these cases as well as these performance issues will somehow will effect the brand.
All the best.
