Rumored Nothing Phone 2a Design and Chipset Leaked

Dec. 16, 2023



Carl Pei’s Nothing is expected to introduce a new affordable ‘a‘ smartphone, allegedly called the Phone 2a soon. While there’s nothing official yet, there have been rumors around the phone and the latest one has leaked its design and details on its chipset.

Android app maker Dylan Roussel took to X (formerly Twitter) to give us a glimpse of the Phone 2a design. While there’s no proper clarity, the back panel is seen with a different design as compared to the Phone (1) and the Phone (2). It is seen sporting a large circular camera island withtwo horizontally-placed cameras.

The existing Nothing smartphones feature vertically aligned rear cameras. The new camera bump is surrounded by small LED strips, which means the Nothing Phone 2a willretain the signature Glyph Interface. It remains to be seen if this happens for the entire rear panel or just around the cameras.

Beebom’s Take

While it would be refreshing to see a new design from Nothing, the leaked design more or less shows a hint of what looks like the current OnePlus and Vivo phones. The Nothing phones managed to stand out with their unique design and I am not sure if this will continue with the new Nothing smartphone, which could also be the start of a new lineup. Do share your thoughts on the Phone 2a’s leaked design in the comments below.

Started off as a stranger but tech is more like a good friend, thanks to over 5 years in the industry. While everything is attractive about tech, phones, social media, and quirky gadgets attract me the most. When not working, I find my solace in shopping and everything that concerns doggos!
