I appreciate that the Nothing Phone 2a is made using many recycled materials: aluminum, tin, copper foil, steel, and over 50% of the plastic parts are made from sustainable sources. This is quite an achievement, especially considering that Nothing is a small phone maker that lacks the budget and resources of the big companies.
The design of the Nothing Phone 2a is one of the most important aspects that makes it stand out in a crowded market. However, some users may not appreciate it. I find it quite strange and unusual. One taiwan telegram data of my colleagues even said that it looks like an R2D2 smartphone. However, some people who saw me test it found it ugly, while others found it funny and playful. What about you? Do you like the look of the Nothing Phone 2a?
Technical characteristics of the equipment
The specs of the Nothing Phone 2a are good for a device in its price range. First of all, it is equipped with a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Pro chipset , which has eight cores: two of them are performance cores that operate at frequencies of up to 2.8 GHz, and six of them are efficiency cores with frequencies of up to 2.8 GHz. This chipset is accompanied by 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage or 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. I am reviewing the more affordable version with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. By default, the operating system and pre-installed apps on the Nothing Phone 2a take up only 23 GB of space, which is much less than on most Android smartphones.
