Nothing Phone 2 Review: Is This 2023’s Most Ambitious Phone?

Nothing's Phone 1 had two major things going for it: an eye-catching transparent design with a "Glyph Interface" of LED strips and a sub-$500 price.

The rest of the Phone 1 — the mid-range chip, average cameras, middling battery life, vanilla Android software, and limited global release that didn't include the U.S. — were more experimental than competitive. Together, the Phone 1 wasn't budget nor was it premium. It was mid-range in every aspect except for design.

That will all soon be in the past because the Phone 2, launching on July 17 (including in the U.S.), crosses off all of the aforementioned complaints while refining its distinct design. I've been using the Phone 2 as my daily driver for the past three weeks and have found almost nothing (no pun intended) to dislike.

While gadgetry played a bigger role in the James Bond movies of the 1960s than in the original Mission: Impossible TV series that debuted in the same decade, the movie franchise has embraced slick tech since its first film was released in 1996. But just how realistic or practical is that tech? An expert in both the espionage world and in digital technological advancements, Eric O’Neill, has the answer.
