Let my sponsor betterhelp.com/phonebuff match you with the right therapist for you. Use my link for 10% off of your first month.
Speed and battery test between the Nothing Phone (2a) and Nothing Phone (2) to see how Nothing's new affordable phone stacks up.
TEST NOTES:
- We conducted multiple trials on each device to get the most accurate and consistent results possible.
- Devices are tested with a robotic arm in a controlled environment, and temperature readings are taken after each trial to account for any thermal throttling.
- Screens were calibrated to 200 nits with auto-brightness turned off, except for in the second test where auto-brightness was turned on.
- Speakers calibrated to the same decibel count.
- Tested within equal distance of a mini cell tower.

Phonebuff, this is how your channel was back in those days with iOS 11, you normally test almost all smartphones then, but recently, you limited it to only iPhones and Samsung high end phones, not knowing that some people still use this other smaller devices. Nice job, please do even more videos with the other smartphones

So the nothing phone 2 outlasted the s23 ultra with an older chipset and a smaller battery than it. Imagine it with the 8 Gen 3 and a 5400mah battery (especially because of the lackluster performance by the OnePlus 12 in the app cycle test).

I believe phones (touch screens) will feel slow until they reach the speed at which our brains process things, so... around 0.35 seconds between any single tap, and the expected action _completing_ (such as an app loading after initial launch) We're still far and away. I can only hope competition doesn't completely die before we get there.
