This variant of the device is the result of Nothing’s first co-creation project. This was an inclusive effort that saw the community pitch in ideas for design, wallpaper, and packaging.

Since then, the winning phone design coined as “Phosphorescence” is slated to feature a glow-in-the-dark aesthetic. This should complement the device’s existing Glyph Interface nicely.

However, details on possible hardware or software changes have been kept under wraps. Notably though, it’s highly expected to have the same device specs as the original Nothing Phone (2a).

For those that need a refresher, the Nothing Phone (2a) has a 6.7 Flexible AMOLED screen capping at 120Hz. It’s powered by a Dimensity 7200 Pro chipset and packs a 5,000mAh battery with 45W of fast charging support.

Optics include 50-megapixel dual-rear cameras and a 32-megapixel front camera. Other features include Nothing’s Glyph Interface, an Advanced Liquid Cooling System, and the device’s True Lens Engine with Ultra XDR.
