Redesigning the ‘a’ models

SayanNaskar_LNvL2Y7YX9

I want to know the thoughts of people on it.

a) rounded corners for ‘a’ model phones. The 2a corners were chef’s kiss the 3a corners look really generic. Not very nothingisc

b) I don’t know if it’s feasible or too much to ask but a frosted glass back for the ‘a’ models will be money money money.

c) I know lots of users already mentioned it like a million times but a better UFS storage is needed like NOW.

SayanNaskar_LNvL2Y7YX9 do you think that frosted glass might remove that ‘signature Nothing look’ and make it harder to see glyphs and some of transparent design that makes the brand so recognisable?

hrry yeah ,I also thought that but maybe the frost effect will give a diffused look. Maybe they should experiment on it as a special edition and see how it goes, as you know they ‘TRY’ lots of design elements.

But what are your thoughts on the rounded corners ?

The rounded corners along with the bezel symmetry was one of the most important elements of the phones for me (hardware wise i.e) so I see what you mean

Personally I think they improved the design of the “a” phones with the 3a series vompared to the 2a series. Yes sure, the Pro’s camera island (which I actually really like) most likely is very polarizing, but apart from that, I think the new glyph arrangement looks more pleasing anf I also somewhat prefer the new design elements on the bottom half over the snaky ones from 2a. I also don’t mind the less rounded corners.

What is a real bummer is the UFS 2.2 storage, not really a design decision per se, but it just feels like a step backwards in 2025.

Coldpaw that’s true

The 3a definitely feels more premium and feels more updated and defined

Bold would be the word, the camera system and arrangement are the biggest demonstrators of that. I definitely agree with you on the glyph arrangement and bottom half design, it looks much more appealing. Unfortunately for me, I’ve gotten used to the idea of defined rounded corners

So departing from that is a little bit of a bummer

It’s one of those subtle details which matter to me because, I’m looking at the screen more than I’m looking at the back of the phone
