Nothing Phone 2 Unboxing & Full Tour | Serious Upgrade!

Unboxing the Nothing Phone 2, an upgraded smartphone boasting fresh camera hardware and boosted specs vs the original handset. However, the Nothing Phone 2 will also cost you more in the UK, starting from £579 - and here's a full tour ahead of my review, showing off those fresh features.

This 2023 model isn't just more expensive, it's also bigger at 6.7-inches, with a redesigned Glyph lighting rig. In Nothing OS 2.0 you'll find lots of new tools to make use of the disco back, plus a fresh new monotone setup. The Nothing Phone 2 is fun to use, and you can see more on the software in my tips and tricks guide.

That camera now rocks an IMX890 sensor, same as the OnePlus Nord 3, with improved HDR abilities and boosted video recording. Gamers will appreciate the extra grunt too, courtesy of the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1. A chipset we've known would be stuffed inside of the Nothing Phone 2 for some time now.

My review will reveal more on that smartphone's performance as well as the battery life and camera action. That's coming on Thursday, but for now here's a full hands-on with this impressive mobile, certainly one of the more unique smartphones of 2023. And come back for a proper Nothing Phone 2 vs Phone 1 comparison, where we'll dissect that camera tech, gaming chops and more!

Alreet! Thanks for having a watch of my Nothing Phone 2 unboxing and tour. Full review is coming this Thursday PM, with a full discussion of the battery life, gaming performance, camera, Nothing OS experience etc. Been using the Nothing Phone 2 for a week and, spoiler alert, I like it. Tempted? Let us know down below! X

Nothing channel is premiering the Nothing (2) right now but Im watching uncle Spurt first.

[Hikari_to_Yuri]

I just love the look of the white model. The way the black camera modules contrast with the white back is more beautiful for me.

[solvdev]

Just saying man, as a subscriber since 30k I am SO HAPPY you’re nearly at a mil- please continue your excellent videos ! ;)))

[ionmyke]

Both look awesome, but I went with white, it just looks more futuristic to me. It's been awhile since I treated myself to a nice phone, I'm excited!

[pongoni]

just came from jerryrigeverything channel and i must say boy that phone is one durable Brick! it took many seconds before the display showed burn marks and it did not even break in the bend test! not a trace of warping

[aliettienne]

One thing that stands out here is the option to have stock Android and Nothing phone customize version of Android OS. I'll love to own a phone that provides multiple options of the Android OS. Now that's Awesome!

[allanmark]

the dark gray model definitely looks better

[davidbezzant]

Looks like a bloody awesome phone spurt! I'd say the 12+256GB set up will be a big seller at 629 here in the UK! Thats certainly a very tempting price for such good hardware!

[jamesrhodes]

Looks decent, defo feeling the dark grey version. 👌🏻

[BigBenlolz]

Love the early oneplus-esque packaging, still got my OPO box it looks so sleek

[Jeffvs]

Love the phone but it is to big for me. I prefer 6.1 over 6.7inch.

[commntatorx]

No longer a premium midrange phone. Now a budget flagship. Both very good in either category.

[kayfert]

Great review with that usual humour! It's nice to get a full tour even though I was already sold lol. What's that anime at the 7:12 mark?

[thienbinh]

So let's see, with $599:
+ Snap 8 Plus Gen 1
+ The 120Hz LTPO 2.0 screen and 1600 nits
+ The best design with new light features
Honestly, It's a good deal.

[SggQpwpqpq-vqds]

I like and watch uncle spurt because he's the only one review phones as a normal human and understanding how to review phone for daily users. not like other big you tubers that bla bla and put phone on drawer

[Nite-owl]

Had relatively high hopes for this but have to say I'm a bit disappointed. Hiked up the price by almost £180 and it still only has an IP 54 rating and last years flagship chip inside. The only real incentive is if you simply must have the glyph experience, but even that comes with the caveat of not being able to put a decent case on it, unless it's clear backed. For my own perspective, the glyphs just seem to be trying to solve an issue that doesn't exist. I can find out when my take away is about to be delivered from the front of the screen. Sorry, but for the price increase it simply doesn't offer enough of an improvement IMO. Pixel 7a seems the logical choice if you can live without the totally unnecessary glyph action.

Even after watching this video 7 months later, ive still stayed with my nothing phone 1 just the size alone of the phone 1 wins me wish they had made the 2a the same size as phone 1

[aiaito]

Guess I'll get this a year after the release date. My main phone right now is the Phone 1, I'd like to make a collection of Nothing, feels nice

[jos]

Thanks to you, i have buy the nothing phone 2 white, such a beautiful phone
