The physical fingerprint on the back going is a huge negative for me these days. Same with the headphone jack. Things are just "progressing" in all the wrong ways for me when it comes to physical forms. Same thing has been going on with gaming for a few years. Anyway, I drag down my notification shade ALL the time with the physical sensor on the back. Since I ditched the iPhones I've had a 5T and now my Pixel 4a is needing a change. It's gonna be really annoying having to move my hand to the top to drag down now. Modern phones are too big for all that.

@shaer6 Жыл бұрын

@@Abdullah00234 hi mate, I ended up getting the Nord 2T, I think I was sold on the fast charging. The phone overall is great, and performance is wiked and puts alot of the most expensive phones to shame. Only downside is the camera is not great but still decent. I love the fact the phone fully charges in 20 minutes, it comes with an 80w plug. If my battery is low I never worry as I know within 10 minutes it will be almost charged so that's the thing that still amazes me. So the Nord 2T is cheap and worth every penny in my opinion, definitely a phone I'll keep for a good few years or so

@adityasarfare9419 Жыл бұрын

Well but NP1 punches back with a more premium design, symmetrical bezels, a larger 120Hz display, more RAM, Gorilla Glass 5, faster wired + wireless charging (and yes, also the "cool" factor - glyph lights). Reliability, longevity, and user-friendliness sound more like metaphors - I mean sure, pixel 6A is a bit more refined in some categories, but NP1 is not far too behind either.

Watching this on my 2 weeks old Nothing The newest update defo made the NP1 a hell load better, battery life especially, is outstanding Everything is working buttery smooth, and I'm enjoying the 120Hz(I had 120Hz on my previous phone too) Honestly this phone already beat Apple in a few ways, and this ain't even flagship The pixel offers more features, but there really isn't a point to have them, as personally, those things probs won't even be touched at all lol Nothing gives you everything you need as a phone that is being used daily, for business matter or tech stuff, pixel, mid range, and high end flagships would be better As someone that doesn't have enough money for flagship, and want to play games such as PUBG, COD, Apex mobile, there is not a single bit of lag in my experience *Excuse me for a super messy comment*

@@ajienugrahapratamaputra1630 personally, I don't have much needs for a pro level phone camera, but the phone does capture better pictures in some modes than other same price range phones The front camera actually impressed and surprised me a lot, it captures really clear and sharp portraits(selfies), and the colouring and brightness is on point to make you stand out, especially with the smart blurring where it highlights you by blurring the background I don't know if this made any sense but in conclusion, it is very impressing, some features can still be improved by further updates, but since the 1.1.3 update(latest), it's improved significantly, it definitely has more potential

@mlpb Жыл бұрын

It's no surprise that the 6a is slightly better than the Phone 1, considering it is a midranger version of the flagship Pixels, not to mention the 6th iteration. Nothing was going for the "midrange king" spot, almost like how One Plus used to do, and so it was full of unique features and ok essentials, but not optimized to the level the 6a is at.

I've ordered a Pixel 6a after check my friend's one, but cancelled that really next day and bought a Nothing Phone🤷 Overall NP(1) is not the best deal for everyone but I like it, I guess the worst part of it is a sound quality. Speakers are imbalanced and sound as flat as NOTHING else😂

@legendaryblood1937 Жыл бұрын

Well I guess Flat tuning is perfect atleast for me who uses BT speakers because most of the devices tends to boost an area of frequency response and technically affecting the Signal It sends to speakers resulting the BT speaker not really using its full potential at Maximum Volume so there might be compressions.
