The latest product from Nothing Technology, the Nothing Phone 2, has been making excitement in the tech community. It's a smartphone worth taking a closer look at due to its unique looks and great specifications. Here is an in-depth review I did of the Nothing Phone 2.
1. Design and Display
The 6.7-inch, 120Hz, LTPO OLED display of the Nothing Phone 2 has a resolution of 1080 x 2412 pixels. Sharpness and color reproduction is superb, and the display is vivid. While the LTPO technology enables adaptive refresh rates to prolong battery life, the standard refresh rate of 120 Hz guarantees fluid navigation and gaming. Impressive screen brightness provides excellent visibility even in harsh sunlight.
With slight modifications to the Glyph Interface on the back of the phone for more distinct LED light strips, the Nothing Phone 2's design maintains the transparent trend started by the Nothing Phone 1. Along the top of the display, the punch hole for the front-facing camera has also been moved to the center.
