Ahead of its 2025 flagship lineup, Nothing has decided to first push forward with a new mid-range lineup with the Phone series. With the exact same price tag as its predecessor, the fresh lineup introduces telephoto lenses into the mix, which is a first for the brand, along with a new AI-dedicated physical button.
This year, the plastic transparent back has been replaced by transparent glass without a price increase and the only noticeable difference in the Glyph lights is that the single straight strip from last year's is now curved, so it's not much of a departure if you're coming from a Phone . It gets the same aluminium accent on the corner and a small red square for a little bit of contrast, which works best with the blue colourway.
On the side of the Phone , there's the new Essential Key, which is a dedicated button for its Essential Space feature. Pressing once will take a screenshot and it will also allow you to add a note to it, while double-pressing will open up Essential Space, a feature I think should be reversed. Pressing and holding the button will activate a voice recorder, which will transcribe everything you say.
As for software, Nothing OS is heaven-sent for minimalists. It ships with practically no bloatware and the skin itself provides a bold, but gorgeous UI. The only glitch I found was that while it was initially able to convert any and all app icons into the monotone theme, a recent update sort of broke the feature and now some apps display their original icon on the home screen, though hopefully this will be fixed in a future update.
