About the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus
The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus is a targeted tune-up of the Phone (2a) rather than a new design, and it works because the original was already one of the more interesting mid-range phones on sale. The transparent back with its Glyph light strips still makes it stand out on a shelf full of black rectangles, and Nothing OS remains refreshingly free of duplicate apps and adverts. The upgrades are narrow but sensible: a faster Dimensity 7350 Pro chip, a bump from 45W to 50W charging, and a 50MP selfie camera that replaces the 32MP unit and adds 4K video, which matters if you shoot a lot of front-facing content. The 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED screen, dual 50MP rear cameras and 5000mAh battery carry over unchanged, and battery life remains a full day. The IP54 rating is the notable weak point, offering splash protection only, and there is no microSD slot or wireless charging. Three years of Android upgrades keep it viable for a while yet.

Nothing Phone (2a) Plus Specifications
Spec Scores
£200-£399 Phones · 192 phones
- 6.7 inches
- 1080 x 2412 pixels
- AMOLED, 120Hz, 1300 nits peak
Based on panel type (LTPO is the modern flagship gold standard), resolution, refresh rate, peak brightness, screen size, and HDR10+ / Dolby Vision support. Marketing peak-brightness claims are capped at 3500 nits to prevent inflation.
- Single camera setup
- 50 MP main camera
- 4K video recording
Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.
- 50 MP front camera
- 4K selfie video
Based on selfie megapixels and max selfie-video resolution.
- 5,000 mAh
- 50W wired, 50% in 21 min, 100% in 56 min
Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
