I recently purchased the Nothing 2a mobile on June 3rd, 2024, and have been mostly pleased with the device. The design is sleek, the performance is smooth, and the user interface is intuitive. However, I have encountered a significant issue with the latest update (2.5.6) related to battery performance.

Since updating, the battery has been draining unusually fast. For example, while using WhatsApp, my screen time was about 4 hours, but the background activity was recorded as 15 hours. Similarly, today I used Spotify for less than a minute of screen time, but it showed almost 15 hours of background activity.

This issue is quite frustrating as it affects the overall usability of the phone. I really love the Nothing 2a mobile for its features and design, but this battery issue is a major downside. I hope the team can resolve this problem as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Been using 2a since April and recently I’ve noticed my phone takes about 1hr and 40 minutes to charge, it charges 1% every minute and i believe it was supposed to take roughly 40+ minutes to fully charge .I hope nothing will resolve this problem soon.

I think one major issue too is the wifi battery drain a looot when it’s on this plus some apps like instgram and you loose 10% in a few minutes disappointed by brand

Nothing Phone (2a) has battery drain issue, about 9-10% of battery percentage idle drop and the phone is charging very slowly with cmf charger which takes about 1.45 hrs to full charge which is charging at 20W even though Nothing Phone (2a) supports 45W charging . I hope these problems will be solved by giving software updates

Im using Nothing 2a since 3 months I’m facing battery drain issues and slow charging,

And yesterday I restarted my mobile and set it in ideal condition for 10 hours, when I see my mobile it’s drained 20% battery without touching (using) my mobile, why it’s happening 😭

RohithTony Yeah pretty much same for me, Battery is getting worse day by day. Lol, Nothing is just trolling us at this point.

How come this phone made it into the top 10 battery life phones in the world? Reference-nanoreview

ashiva

Fractal For real? Lol 😂

Paid Media probably. I had big expectations from this company , Np2a will be my last purchase from Nothing. Not buying anything from them from now on.

Fractal yup this is insane i took this phone because it appear in many benchmark with top autonomy what a cold shower 😂

Ezotericar

Fractal That was before the great battery drain era, moste reviewer’s do the test on day one

Fractal

ashiva Yes, For real

SInce we are at this, can you honestly, without any bias or hate or frustration, let me know of other issues you have faced on this phone since your day 1? I believe battery life is subjective as it depends on individual usage.

Overheating: Given it is almost 25k including the charger with 8gb ram & overall pretty good specs, I never expected the phone to heatup so much. It reaches upto 40-41° while i play 1hr of game (standoff 2) on standard graphic & 60 fps, also it heats up while casual web browsing or lets say i am downloading something from the browser its easily goes up to 38° & on casual use 35-36°. I face overheating while charging too, I have the cmf gann charger & I am not even kidding it easily reaches up to 40°-41°, sometimes I don’t even want to charge the phone just because it heats up so much.

Screen distortion or idk lines or “glitch lines” as to say when i am using the phone at night i turn on the night light & i noticed it the lockscreen widgets get a little distorted if i look hard enough.

Gesture Navigation: It is not smooth as it should be.

The main problem I am facing with NP2A would be the battery & overheating. As i said earlies it is getting worst day by day for real.

RohithTony

ashiva they need to fix this, please Nothing fix as soon as possible 🙏

Heating while gaming is totally negligible but the browsing, downloading should never heat a device. All the reviews mention decent heat management and praising the vapor chamber. I dont even know anymore. The cmf gan charging problem, It is more worrying. I think even nothing 45w charger will heat up the same.

2. I just got to know about this problem today through community posts. It is unacceptable.

3. Strange, everyone talks about how smooth nothing os is. Saw some videos on community where some swipes were not getting recognized by the screen.

Still cant believe that the battery problem is that bad.
