Following the recent launch of its sub-brand CMF’s first smartphone, Nothing is gearing up to release an upgraded version of its popular mid-range device.
The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus is set to debut on July 31st. While the company has teased the phone with the tagline “Plus. More. Extra,” the exact nature of the improvements remains shrouded in mystery.
One area where the Nothing Phone (2a) could benefit from an upgrade is wider availability. The original 2a model has yet to launch in the US market and is currently only accessible through a developer program. Expanded accessibility for the Plus model would be a welcomed change for many consumers.
Nothing is building anticipation for the upcoming Nothing Phone (2a) Plus by teasing an image featuring mysterious grooves. Take a look at the image below.
These grooves bear a resemblance to the wireless charging coil found on the higher-end Nothing Phone (2), a feature absent in the 2a model. It’s possible the image hints at wireless charging capabilities for the Plus version.
Since its March launch, the original Nothing Phone (2a) has received limited updates, with only a new Blue color option introduced in April. As for the flagship Nothing Phone (3), fans will have to wait until 2025 for its release, though it is worth mentioning that there is no official word from Nothing as of yet regarding a launch date.
Nothing’s latest launch is the CMF Phone 1, which features a replaceable back panel to change colors, but users can also attach a lanyard, a kickstand, or a magnetic card holder that snaps to the back.
