The mention was subtle, but it was enough to generate excitement among fans in the Nothing community. While the mention of Chip was quickly removed from the post, it was too late. We managed to capture a screenshot, as you can see below.
The Nothing Phone (2) is expected to be the next smartphone from the company, following the footsteps of its first success story, the Nothing Phone (1). The company also revealed that it has sold over 650,000 units of the Nothing phone (1) to date, which is impressive considering it was a first generation product.
Aside from the casual reveal, we don’t know much else about what the Nothing Phone (2) could bring to the table. Nothing CEO Carl Pei previously confirmed that the upcoming phone will be ‘more premium’ than their first smartphone, so we anticipate a better build quality, a redesigned Glyph interface, and better hardware under the hood Can The chipset is already getting a major upgrade, going from the Snapdragon 778G+ to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. These upgrades will undoubtedly increase the price of the phone, but we will have to wait and see for that.
Finally, the accidental disclosure by a Qualcomm executive added to the hype of the next smartphone by Nothing. It showed that even large companies can make mistakes and leave out important information, and it gives fans of new startups something to look forward to. The next phone is slated to launch by Q3 of this year, so there’s still plenty of time for everything to go right.
