Nothing (known for its monochrome, dot-matrix aesthetic) is throwing splashes of colors with its new Phone (2a) Special Edition.
While this is merely a cosmetic change, it’s still the same Phone (2a) which has been available for a while. It has the 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display, Dimensity 7200 Pro chipset, dual 50-megapixel rear cameras, and a 5000mAh battery with 33W charging. Of course, it retains the signature Glyph Interface.
The big difference? Color. Sure, you can still get it in classic black or white, but now the phone’s design gets red, yellow, and blue accents splashed across the rear panel.
“At the very core of Nothing is transparency. This idea of distilling things down to their most basic, yet beautiful form. If we apply this notion to color we are left with red, yellow and blue,” the company explained, saying that the Phone (2a) Special Edition is ‘a story of color’.
“Special Edition celebrates primary colors and their place within Nothing’s brand identity.”
