Nothing CEO Reacts to Leaked Phone (2a) Tweets 

People complain that all phones are just similar nowadays, then complain when a cellphone is different because it's "weird"

I love how Nothing shares their opinions and thoughts directly from the users and they take users'options and thoughts as well which most companies fail to do.

Had they been truly copying Apple, this comment section would've been disabled already

Carl is the chillest tech CEO out there

When something becomes popular it faces both hate and love equally

A smaller sized phone has a niche fan-base. Like the Pixel a series or the now terminated iPhone mini series. Would love for Nothing to fulfill this dream of mine.

i am really shocked to see that so many people are against this design... because its really a very cool, fresh and young looking phone to me!

one thing i always appreciate about their videos are the built-in captions. i love having/reading captions in videos and tv, and it's great that they automatically do it and i don't have to guess if a video has captions or not

a compact nothing phone will be much appreciated because there are many people who love compact phones, and we've got only two options in the indian market rn

That camera centre placement explanation was great.. no wobble.. easy grab.. I love the cassette design.. Atleast they are trying nee things... taking inspiration from retro objects.

If this design was made by Apple within a day the mobile would be sold out. True reality😢

Interesting video. Enjoyed it. Looking forward to taking this one apart once I'm able to get one!

I dont know why I just like the concept of Nothing .It's like simple but cool.

Don't worry Carl , it's just looks awesome 😎😎, keep your good work bro ❤❤❤❤

I just can imagine how fun the conversation is on a round table with these guys.

Dear Carl and dear Nothing team, please continue! Give us more of Nothing greatnes.

1. The Design for a budget phone is really good. 2. i would love a Tesla collab 3. Pls make a smaller sized phone like 6 inch or 6.2 inch. All in all Great Video as always!

why did they put the back cam in the center :(

I think it is a good step in paving their way and expanding the identity. I just wish there were 1 or 2 more glyps and that there will be some actual utility linked to them. Being able to set a glyp pattern that lights up when i get a new email would go a long way. Think notification led on the sgs2 - it used to be blue for facebook, green for whatsapp red for google mail and so on. I am happy with the phone(1) but unless there will be a more compact (2c?) version (and the glyph functionality) i don't see myself getting another nothing phone. Still love the aesthetics ❤

Great q&a , must appreciate the daring of this CEO ❤

Hello guys, I'm the pigeon at 0:13 :)

Sorry as Indian coz most tweets are from Indian named people..

They all look so calm and the design is really good, I agree with what Akis mentioned about balance when phone camera is facing downwards, the balance is important kind off which other companies have not thought. Loved the idea !

Its a good thing that people didn't ask 'why the back cam is at the rear of the phone'

To be honest "Once you see it unfortunately you can't unsee it" 😂

The shape that looks like ribbon cable in the back of the phone is the number (2), and the lights around the cameras is the letter (a). Right?!

I don't own a Nothing Phone as of now. But looking at Carl's and his team's interactions and his involvement in the videos i'm becoming a fan. And of course i really liked the UI and the design of the products designed by Nothing. Cheers to you guys and hoping to get a Nothing phone some day. Also the CMF by nothing is bang on superb. Looking forward to more awesome products and best wishes to the team!!

The level of transparency on their RU-vid channel totally resonates with the design language :)

Love from Assam/INDIA 🖤🤍

The biggest problem of your phone(s) are, there are no 4K 60FPS video options for both the front and the back camera. It sucks.

The best thing, from my perspective, was the statement in this video about the noise on the internet. Aaaand it's interesting to see the cameras being positioned in the middle, reminds me of Motorola a bit, the add-ons back then. I hope you will be able to stick with this, not change it every year, but rather create something that drives the attention to the fun about technology, as you would say. Doesn't even have to be about the hardware. As an example, I liked the pie controls (don't remember the name sadly), which enabled me to use the phone without a navigation bar at the bottom, nor anything else. I could just hold my finger on the edge of the screen and see battery info, notifications, could go home, back, to the recently used app and lots of other things. If I hadn't gone with iPhone, I'd definitely be still using that if it's available for Android phones without rooting etc.

I have barely missed any video from Nothing. Even though I am desperately hoping for Phone 2a to be the best Nothing phone and finally have a Nothing product in my hands but you guys are still my all time favourite. Fingers crossed for the new phone. I am hoping you guys have a stellar response with Phone 2a.

Ah yes, Twitter is always there to make sure nothing goes without some form of unnecessary and petty complaints 😂

Really cool to have such open commentary from Nothing on this (and so much else)! 💪 Imo, this is the best design yet from Nothing. I don't like the glyph design from the phone 1 and 2 or the camera placement. Incredibly well done! I didn't ever expect to be excited about Nothing 👏🔥🎉

2:01 yes the location is important considered how notorious the said location is

I just love this brand man the transparency of them is so nice

I have the Phone 2 and I really like the new design. I think it will definitely evolve in their future models and I look forward to it.

Nothing is very smart and good the way they are changing the opinions of people by literally using their honesty is just terrific 👍🏻👍🏻

Should add some periscope camera for next NP 3 series.

Rooting for this company. Keep up the good work, guys!

I would love to see Nothing giving just a tad bit more of software updates like make it 4 for budget phones and maybe 5 for the flagships? I am a huge fan for software support and I think alot of people would appreciate it. Also the UI is just clean in terms of UX, it feels just as good as pixel. Keep going, lots of support!

Nothing phone 2a is my 1st Nothing phone. I switched from oneplus 12R and Nord CE 3 and yes the in hand feel, back design and overall software feels good and unique. White colour is with me and I love it. Thanks Carl and Team. Would love to be a part of external software testing team if possible in future.

I kinda like this take. What a solid video from the team. Just shows what the Nothing team is capable of. Cant wait for the future

Really love the milky look and don't really mind the new camera placement, but I wouldn't call it a *clear* update for the phone 1 cuz it doesn't seem like it has wireless charging (and therefore no reverse charging which I absolutely love on my phone 1) as well as way less glyphs than the phone 1 (especially the charging indicator glyhps) which takes the phone's character away a little bit.

Still not have 90 fps support in bgmi in nothing phone 2 even after it is having a 8 gen 1 processor

I am acutally really impressed by Nothing myself, as I consider myself a 15 year old enterenpeneur and I even bought the Nothing Ear Stick. However, after 2 months, I have a problem with the sound not being equal and since its out of warranty I have to pay for the repair when I didn't do anything with the product. I really hope someone from Nothing can be please see because I really see a bright future with this company.

I loved the design.. the two cameras looking like eyes, like wall-e, totally won my heart

The work that's gone in doing this kind of innovation is so much and finally they have to listen to all these comments it might be draining and de-motivating. But Nothing till now the Phone designs have been fantastic for all your phones. I like that someone is trying to push other companies to do something new!

i like your positivity, carl..

though i am sure this wouldn't be seen. I have an issue with the phone 1. I have no idea but i went out from my room to check on my phone. Boom all of a sudden nothing works the power buttons are not working, vibrations are gone, Black screen etc. I checked for physical damage or swelling in the battery yet no issues. But the phone wouldn't even charge and i am pretty sure this is a battery issue where the battery drained itself completely its been few hours but i am not able to figure out what to do where to get the battery replaced.I am not sure if the country i live in has a replacement for the batteries of the phone.

I hope you guys do a watch one day

now i can't wait for Phone (2b)

Onward, my friends👍👍

I think it looks pretty nice, especially that transparent curve on the back edge. Definitely interesting new design. I dig it. I do still prefer the Phone 2 more though, especially the glyph. I do wonder though, as time goes on how hard is it going to be to manage two different phones with different glyph types? Since the 2a has a reduced glyph count, some functions may not be the same as they are in the Phone 2, right?

I’m also a Nothing fan. But just being curious.. What category of users are you guys aiming at, for the Phone 2 a ? Would love to know!!

I'm excited for it. The design is impressive. The Dimensity chip looks impressive. Color me impressed.

Can't wait for 2a🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Keep it up and just chill no problem continue your work ❤❤❤

Some lining came on display: After update nothing in phone 2a, can it be solved? Please solve this problem

I genuinely don’t care about android products, but I love Nothing design language, I really like them as a company (it’s refreshing for core team to just seat and speak to the world, or discuss things, or take time and review someone’s designs). If you guys will ever make foldable I’ll be among the first ones to buy it. Thanks for all your great work, and attempt to push the industry forward.

Don’t sweat on these Nothing! You are who you are and that IS AMAZING. Please reach South East Asia market soon! *patiently waiting* 🎉

Just done setting up my mons Nothing Phone 2, it's her most expensive and high-end smartphone yet, and knowing the Nothing software layout from my Nothing Ear1/ Stick it felt fast and intuitive. I also like the fact that the swipe gestures on Phone. 2 are recognisable for me as my main has been IPhone 6, 7, XS Max, 13 Mini and 14Pro over the last 8 years. To be honest I want a Phone 2A as 2nd device or work phone

Thx man I mean I didn’t use the app but it never crossed my mind that my tv could connect to my Beats Pro 😅 and it does work

Does it even matter, its just a phone, there is no-new-thing that we haven't seen before

It is so sad that the lights are only around the camera and not at the bottom half also the pattern at the bottom would be better if it is connected to the top part like making a connected channel from the bottom to the top

Carl & the Nothing Team are the Goatz of Tech 🤌🏻🔥🥂

I love this brand's boldness in thinking differently. It is the modern style of the smartphone industry.

I like the design it's different. And it shows different kind of identity

question? what would be the job title position? can we have a description. Because I'm greek and Crzay and I may even do it.

what chill CEO Carl is

Plz do launch a smaller 5 inch version in the future

like they always said, looks/design are subjective, even I dont like the design of Phone 1 before but this time I really like the design of Phone (2a)

The best autofellatio-ing I've seen a while. They know the PR game. Bravo.

I honestly think the 2a looks awesome! I typically am opposed to centered camera bumps but you guys nailed it on this one!

I love how the phone looks you can tell it apart from other phone companies

When will you release a laptop?

"ITS SO CUTEEEEE" -me when i first saw this

Idk but the camera setup is somewhat weird for me. My friend was waiting for this phone as he was going to buy a nothing phone. He then decided to buy nothing phone 2 instead of 2a because of this same reason

I personally like that camera alignment

Guys! When will the nothing chats come out, i know it was removed but you are not developing it again from scratch are you? Why does it take it so long. :( greetings from Poland

I am waiting for Nothing 3 for change my mobile phone after 5 years and are your product available in Australia

Loving my new Nothing Phone 1! Just a bit bummed I would have waited for the nothing 2a if I knew because now I have fallen in love with the new nothing 2a. I'm impressed by what you're achieving . Keep up the great work!"

Of course people forget about the security nightmare on nothing chats

I love the center placement for the camera. Actually it is objectively the best placement imo, so you don't have to manually re-adjust for the main subject you're recording/taking pic of. But is it better than the Nothing 2 though?

is the back plastic of the 2a durable or does it get scratched easily by coins keys and cannot be used without a seperate case?

@4:41 this guy just convinced me that the eyes looking layout of the cameras is the better design choice. thats a W

I found this design is well thought out and nice.

I need phone with it's phone cover

The capabilities of a phone is ALWAYS more important that the design, especially the outside design, and especially when you put the phone in a case.

Some good work to be done on Camera..

i actually like the quality feel of your phone 2 but can't use it as my main device. Hoping there will be a flagship lineup soon?

Never thought i would watch a whole video from a company lol nice job nothing

Can't wait for ur guys nothing phone 3

I thought the back design was weird when I first saw it, but after some time, it grew on me. I dig it. I like the black variant though.

My only problem it has less lights

Dnt worry u gonna be a great!!! Jst keep on going no matter what the hatter say.... They dnt hv a heart to appreciate anything...

Best content from nothing so far

How much I love and am satisfied with Nothing's products? As a proud owner of the Phone 1 since 2022 , I'm passing it on to my nephew and ordered myself the Phone 2a.

I would love to see a Nothing Phone mini with a center camera hole with a symmetrical Glyph interface that has either white or rgb (but not multi, more like select 1 color from the color wheel) and has a flat glass back like the Phone(1).

Wanna see one day nothing’s camera compare with apple,google and samsung
