The Nothing Phone (2a) offers a more affordable alternative to the smartphone world, but is it enough to tempt a lifelong iPhone user away from the Apple ecosystem?

Interested in buying Nothing 2a? Then read till end. I have used iPhone SE, 6s and Samsung M51 in the past. So, for apple everything was good except battery and also it's price is too high. Samsung battery was good but being an iOS user you won't be comfortable using Samsung boring UI. Now I moved to Nothing 2a and I must say, it is much more than what is there on paper. It's an experience which you will only have once you have this beauty in hand. 2a is only for professional users who want clean OS, butter smooth performance and good battery. Camera is not the best in this segment and it is not gaming phone. This phone 2a has it own audience who will appreciate what it tries to offer at this price. Nothing 2a is no nonsense phone.

Nothing os is the only Android os that is aesthetically comparable to iOS. I was a long term iphone user till last year. Couldn't bring myself to spend all that money on a practically identical "new" iphone. Tried Samsung and Xiaomi, ugly as hell UI even with their theme stores that often lack complete icon support. Gave android one last try with nothing 2a. Realized that nothing os is the thing that android has been lacking. Surprised at how easy it is for any company to be the next Apple if they put more effort on the UI. Would probably upgrade to flagship nothing phone for the camera. Maybe never iphones anymore. Iphone is really boring now.

@@AlvaroUrielPerezMartinez cameras are the least impressive feature of the phone, but on that front they are updating the software constantly in order to make it better. It's a decent camera for everyday usage, but don't expect flagship results.

Solid video! Love to see you giving it a go. So often I see iPhone users assuming Android is ugly, buggy, and clunky when they have no experience with or actual knowledge of it. Nothing and Pixel phones are great showcases that that’s not the case at all. Considering how inexpensive the 2a is, it’s a great choice (though I do recommend trying the Phone(2), Pixel 8, and/or S24 for a more flagship experience if you’re still curious about Android) Cheers!

@Joonpathy Ай бұрын

how is the camera in your opinion

@registeredblindgamer4350 Ай бұрын

@@Joonpathy it's pretty good. Not the best for the price, but also not the worst. Compared to base model iPhones it isn't really that much worse. Other budget android devices like the A55 trade blows. So it's all down to optimisation and the camera keeps getting better with each update literally. I like the device because it's a good all round device that has a good user experience.

@VinnyUnion 28 күн бұрын

@@Joonpathy it's surprisingly useful. Alongside the gylph. Put that thing down (flip to glyph) and that lighting becomes hella useful and the timer as well in the kitchen. For it to lack expandable storage and headphone Jack, it's surprisingly useful as a tool. The plastic frame and back feels great. In my opinion better than cold or hot aluminum frame and glass. I've had flagship since nearly forever and I might be just sick of it but I find plastic materials significantly more comfortable to hold since it's a soft touch with consistent temperatures on the surface.

One comment you made here really hit home with me. "Do I need an iPhone or do I want an iPhone". This sums me up, I have been an Apple user since 2007 but their products have become so pricey that I am sitting here wondering do I really need to spend £700-£1000 on a new iPhone when I could spend £319 on a Nothing Phone that looks amazing and has a great spec for the price. Great video!

Good insights, but I assumed the Phone (2) flagship would have been better to test drive. My only issue is that these videos are kind of the same and can be summed up to "Good Phone, but that ecosystem tho" and if thats the case then pretty much no android will sucessfully tempt the switch, as Apple has no plans to make interoperability between the two platforms, I beleive for now they'll (Android) remain a curiousity at best for steep Apple users, regardless of flashy design or bells and whistles.

@thehunt226 2 ай бұрын

Well, US and EU laws will require Apple to open up, which is a good move in my book. We´ll see how this play out in the long run... Cheers!

Great Video as always , I'd love you to try & review the Nothing ear buds , the Ear2's. Like you i'm very deep in the Apple eco system but Im always looking for other ear buds , I really love the one plus at the moment and of corse the Sennheiser MOMENTUM ! - B e very interested in your opinion on the Nothing's though .

You're used to flagship Apple products so trying a flagship Android phone from Nothing (Phone2), Samsung or Google would've been even more of a seamless experience. The cameras on those things are better than Iphone!

Nice video! I just switched from Iphone SE 2nd gen and I am loving it. I was in the apple eco system too (macbook air, Ipad, airpods…) but I am finding ways around it. Not works as smooth obviously but it is good enough. I personally bought this phone mainly for it’s battery life because Iphone dies so quickly. Nothing Phone 2a can survive more than Iphone 15 pro. Obviously Iphone 15 pro beats it in every other way probably but Nothing Phone 2a is good enough in every way and has a good battery life. And costs almosy a quarter of Iphone 15 pro. Nothing OS is soooo good too.

@DanThomas1161 2 ай бұрын

I'm pro photographer and I am invested like you into Apple devices. however 6 years ago I decided to stop using an iphone and switch to Android. I thought if I continue using all things Apple I would be nek chained to its system, and really isolate myself from the rest of the world in terms of the tech and the tech advancements. I really never looked back. I totally enjoy Android OS and a multitude of Android phones, and also, and this is really important as well, comparably getting a lot for not so much money. I think from a very personal point of view it's healthy and therefore really important to say no to Apple's wall.

You should rather try NP(2) and compare it to Iphone. But if you using Iphone that long your stuck with the ecosystem (Apple Garden) and there is no chance you ever switch to some android phone.
