The Nothing Cellphone (1) is a mid-range system, however for the Nothing Cellphone (2) it appears to be like like the corporate may very well be concentrating on the high-end, because it’s set to pack a high-end chipset.

Particularly, Nothing introduced throughout MWC 2023 that the Nothing Cellphone (2) will use a Snapdragon Eight collection chipset, that are the highest cellular chipsets Qualcomm makes.

In fact, there’s multiple Snapdragon Eight collection chipset, in any other case it wouldn’t be a collection, and there’s each likelihood the Nothing Cellphone (2) received’t be utilizing the highest mannequin, which at the moment is the Snapdragon Eight Gen 2, discovered within the likes of the OnePlus 11, nor a bespoke platform such as you’ll discover within the Samsung Galaxy S23 line.

No matter platform Nothing chooses, any Snapdragon Eight collection chipset ought to make for a considerable improve on the Snapdragon 778G Plus discovered within the Nothing Cellphone (1), so that is promising information, particularly as our overview of that telephone listed the chipset efficiency as a weak level.

We’d be taught precisely which Eight collection chipset can be used quickly too, as Nothing has mentioned we’ll hear extra within the coming weeks. Until Qualcomm is making one thing new, the telephone will use both the Snapdragon Eight Gen 1 (discovered within the OnePlus 10 Professional amongst others), or the Snapdragon Eight Plus Gen 1, discovered within the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.

Both approach, that makes for a strong platform, and feels like a promising improve – although in fact it’d imply that is additionally a dearer handset than the Nothing Cellphone (1), and that telephone’s value was one among its finest promoting factors.

It feels like Nothing is assured in regards to the telephone, as Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing, instructed us that “our engineering is rather a lot stronger than earlier than. We had loads of companions that had been serving to us on the surface, however immediately now we have virtually 100 folks, so the maturity of merchandise on the identical stage, is rather a lot increased

“We have run loads of prototypes, sadly we won’t actually share them simply but, nevertheless it’s been going a lot better than earlier than.”

Evaluation: what we all know in regards to the Nothing Cellphone (2)

Thus far, aside from this information of the chipset, the Nothing Cellphone (2) is usually a thriller, however not utterly.

Nothing has confirmed that – unsurprisingly – the telephone will land this 12 months, and has additionally mentioned that it is going to be a “extra premium” smartphone, which inserts with this chipset information.

Moreover, Nothing has beforehand mentioned that the corporate is specializing in software program enhancements with the Cellphone (2).

Past that, we’d think about that it’s going to have a equally head-turning design, however as for different options just like the cameras and battery, that’s anybody’s guess for now. Hopefully we’ll discover out extra about this promising Android telephone earlier than lengthy.
