OnePlus is a company that launched and instantly disrupted the market. Similarly, Nothing also came onto the scene doing things very differently than established companies were — and at a time when smartphones had been playing it safe, it certainly earned them a lot of attention.
What do OnePlus and Nothing have in common? Carl Pei. Co-founder of both OnePlus and Nothing, he has a gift for drumming up hype around smartphones, and it looks like the Nothing Phone 2a has entered that exciting phase. The phone is confirmed, and a leak has given us a first glimpse at the device's default wallpapers.
Nothing's Aesthetic Isn't A Mystery — These Wallpapers Lean Into It
Nothing's phones are easily the most “different” bar smartphones currently available, mostly in thanks to an extremely unique rear design. That Glyph lighting is unforgettable and leaves an instant impression.
Now, aligning mostly with the Nothing design language, we've got the chance to look at the wallpapers that will likely come with the Nothing Phone 2a, thanks to X tipster OnLeaks. And if you ask me, they look pretty stylish, simple, and colorful.
These wallpapers are good-looking, and hopefully, the Nothing Phone 2a will be as well-designed as they are. But if there's one thing Nothing knows how to do, it's making great designs.
The Nothing Phone 2a May Make A Stylish Appearance At MWC 2024
The Nothing Phone 2a was a rumor at a point, but when an upcoming phone shows up on the company's official website, it can't get more confirmed than that. The Nothing Phone 2a is coming — but we don't know when.
There's no official information on the launch date of the Nothing Phone 2a, but it seems like it'll be coming out soon. With us having just entered the month of MWC Barcelona 2024, I'd put a lot on the chance that Nothing makes the new phone official during the event.
The Nothing Phone 2a is expected to be an entry in the Nothing lineup similar to what the Pixel 7a is to the Pixel 7 — a lower-specced and more affordable option that still brings the general experience of owning a Nothing Phone to consumers.
What Else Can We Expect From Nothing in 2024?
Apart from the Nothing Phone 2a, which should make its grand entrance in the next few weeks, what else can Nothing enthusiasts expect to see from the modern smartphone brand? Will we be getting new Nothing Ear products alongside the Phone 2a?
Well, there are no whispers to that effect yet, but it looks like CMF, a Nothing subsidiary, has hinted at “Buds” and a “Neckband Pro” on their website and X, but that's pretty much all we know for now. Either way, we already know that they'll be cool.
Of course, we expect to see the Nothing Phone 3 launch later in the year and perhaps a new Nothing Ear model. The previous Nothing Phones launched in July, so we can keep our fingers crossed for a July release for the next generation.
