i_Ramalama I’m an insider… I tested it heavely so yeah I got my hands on phone 2a. Some scenarios are better with phone2 and some are better on Phone 2a. You are comparing 2 phones that has like 8 month gap ^^ so of course there are differences

Waseemisitu what do you mean by proper update ? Phone 2 is supposed to get an update every 2 months, it’s on their product page lmao.
Phone 2ahas a lot of update because they are quick fixes updates. Phone 2 doesn’t have bugs like 2a does anymore, so of course it needs less update.

        Remi F What I don’t understand is how in 8 months the camera is so terrible and the updates to the camera have been mediocre. A mobile in 2024 that cannot deactivate HDR or that at night generates a sky full of artifacts.

        The other day, I photographed my dog ​​during the day and he made a mess of his white fur. He doesn’t know how to interpret basic things. A phone from 2024 with 8 months on the market!

        It’s not serious.

            RuudHesp He doesn’t really know what he is talking about.

            @Remi F The nothing phone 2a has a Samsung main sensor (Samsung ISOCELL GN9 (S5KGN9) ) . 1/1.56-inch Sensor .

            Equipped with a Midrange mediatek 7200 pro chipset . ( With lesser cores ) That can give better output on image quality.

            Then Why cant 8+gen1 with a sony IMX 890 . ( IF YOU ARE SATISFIED WITH THE OUTPUT THEN THE DIFFERENCE IS NOT YET VISIBLE TO YOU ) PERIOD !!!! BUT THE MAJORITY DOES!!

                I zoom in on the photo of my dog ​​and look what a mess of post-processing. A photo in full light

                Look at the entire area of ​​the dog’s white fur, the legs… Does a €600 phone seriously not know how to interpret that well in broad daylight?

                    RuudHesp Oh shit !!!!

                    Me too mate , the HDR is killing the pictures .

                    Still now there’s no option to turn on and off the HDR .

                    It oversharpens the image and the image looks like painting.

                      See the number of people affected !!!

                      We are letting our thoughts and our experiences to the community so that nothing can really focus more on what needs to be improved rather than diverting the community only to the positive feedback!!! Mr steel.

                        i_Ramalama I am super chill, just following our Community Guidelines.

                        You might not mean it as shouting, but I think it’s good to be aware that within the Internet etiquette it is perceived as shouting by the reader. Lots if articles online go into detail about this: Example 1, Example 2

                            Mr Steel Sure then , thanks for sharing it . I surely do follow the community guidelines and know my manners 🙏🏻 No need of examples, Lol .

                              It’s great that as soon as someone breaks the rules you tell them. I see it as sensible.

                              I would also love it if for all the camera complaints in the last 3-4 months, someone would say something.

                              I don’t even know why we bother to provide examples and continue in this forum. No one has responded indicating that work is being done on the camera. Very disappointed.

                              Thanks to the mods, they are not to blame, but it is sad that no one says anything about the camera in the face of so many messages of disagreement.

                                In times when software is everything (performance, features, updates, fixes, etc.), it’s a little bit sad, that Nothing is struggling a lot. I know, that to build good software, you have to invest a lot, it’s tough - time, money and people-consuming, but if a company want to prioritize it, they can do it… Yeah, If … If they want to release things/fixes faster, they can do it. But it’s again - decision. Company decision.

                                My biggest sadness is about this bug - Android Auto on NP(2) is never worked on lots of VAG group cars (Skoda, VW, etc.) for 9 months (since NP(2) release.

                                Hardware design for Nothing is great, no problems on that side.

                                But designing good hardware it’s easier than building good software.

                                  EM (1) Even 2A has same bug android auto doesn’t work🤣 don’t know what they are smoking bcoz everyone is complaining about that in community.
