Welcome to Techno Ruhez , today we have brought for you the full detailed review of Nothing Phone 2A in Techno Ruwais style. Now this phone came to us before the launch, in fact, it came to us before we went to Barcelona. So we have tested it for almost a month and what all things have come out in this month, good and bad, we will tell you in detail. Wait for our conclusion, in the end we will tell you a lot of things about this phone. Then you can decide whether you want to buy this phone or not. Such full reviews come on our channel, so for that subscribe to our channel, support us and give a lot of love. And do give your opinion by commenting. Now let's pick up the first thing here, its software, which I personally liked a lot. After One UI 6 and Oxygen OS, if I praise anyone, then it is nothing OS's Very smooth, very fast and there is no problem of ads and bloatware here. In today's date, if you look at Realme, Xiaomi, Infinix, in fact in iQOO's phone, you will also get to see bloatware, Glance, lock screen somewhere. But there is nothing like this here. You get to see a very seamless experience. So this is the first thing I liked about it. And along with that, you get animated widgets in it. So its widgets, its monochrome mode looks very clean and very minimalistic. You get widgets on the lock screen. And along with that, there is a voice recorder in it, which also has a voice focus option. If you want to record a voice normally, then it kills the background noise. So they also added this feature, which I liked a lot. It also supports call recording, but yes, it is a Google dialer. Hopefully, in the future, nothing will give its own dialer. So this is what I am expecting. There was an update in it and nothing OS 2.5.3 has now arrived here. But the security patch here was only of 1st February. I am expecting that now March has come to an end. So maybe you will get a March security patch in April. But in that, you got to see a lot of camera improvements. First of all, they brought an Ultra XDR update. When we checked in the camera, we did not see any XDR mode. But we saw Ultra HDR mode, which is similar and does not make much difference. It enhances the photo in this. So this is what we noticed here. Some improvements have been made to HDR color correction and selfie. You will see here about the rest of the performance. Background app enhancement has been done. And along with that, three new widgets have also been added. A camera, recorder and battery, which you can see looks very cool. Along with that, when the video was being edited, there was another big update in it. And a lot of bugs have been fixed in it. First of all, let me tell you that they have made a lot of enhancements to the camera. They have improved a lot of color accuracy. In fact, they have also made changes to the Ultra HDR option. About brightness and photo quality. They have enhanced the portrait mode a little here. And along with that, the color consistency between normal photos and ultrawide, which I did not notice so much. They have made some improvements in that too. And they have improved the overall performance of the camera. General improvements have also been made here. If you see, they have improved the gaming performance here. I did not see any problem before. But they have improved more here. But the most important update is clearly mentioned here. And I also noticed that whenever I opened any app, specifically the camera app, and as soon as I opened and closed it, there was stutter and lag. So here it is written, Optimize the animation stutter when launching and exiting apps. So they fixed this thing. So now when we checked after updating, there was no lag or stutter there. So I really liked this thing here. There are a lot of other such bugs that have been fixed. You can see clearly below. And the update size is also not much, it is 77. Because earlier they had already given 253 MB. They added an oral update in the middle. And when we checked all these things, there have been a lot of improvements in these matters. Another important thing here is that you get the support of AI wallpapers. Along with that, what you can do is when you go to this option, you can choose two simultaneous wallpapers according to you. And then it merges them and gives you a new AI wallpaper. So if you want some cool AI wallpapers, you want to enjoy by merging double app wallpapers, then you can do that too. The software experience we have done in this phone is amazing. If we talk about network call quality, you get 5G on this phone. We have installed a 5G sim card and it has shown us a proper 5G network. There are no errors or issues in this. There is no problem of network drop. We checked both the sims, both have proper 5G. And there is no problem in call quality here. Our team members, whom we give to test, they keep talking about the primary by installing a sim in this. But in this matter, there is no complaint in our sheet that there are issues in the call. So you will get to see a very good call quality here. There is no problem there. I liked this thing. We will talk about the display. It is a 6.7-inch FHD Plus flexible AMOLED display. The size of the display seems to be quite huge. It is definitely huge. But when you hold it in your hand and use it, it feels small. I don't know why. For the first time, I felt like this with a phone. Hearing the name of nothing, maybe I don't know why, but I feel like this. Anyways, it syncs adaptively between 30Hz and 120Hz. If you select a smart port, it automatically syncs the refresh rate. So that feature is given here. And its peak brightness is impressive. You get a peak brightness of 1300 nits. If you go in direct sunlight, it goes to the peak. You will know from that. We tested its display in Barcelona in outdoors It was quite impressive. I can't compare it with Samsung. But the display we saw according to its price, I liked it. You have protection on the Gorilla Glass 5 display. But the screen guard is also installed. This is also good. And this 10-bit display. The saturation and sharpness of the video we noticed in the playback, it is very good. And you get always-on display in the display. You can take advantage of that too. You have HD in Netflix. We checked in Prime Video. We didn't see any option. Maybe there is a bug, maybe they will fix it And in YouTube, you get HDR support in 2160p 60fps. So if you want to watch HDR videos on YouTube, you can watch that here. Overall, the display panel is flat. It is good. Bezels are thin, punch hole is also small You will get a premium experience here. Let's talk about the battery. It is a 5000 mAh battery. This is the first phone from Nothing in which you get a 5000 mAh battery. It supports 45W charging, which is good But unfortunately, the charger is not in the box. This is my feedback to Nothing. Please give the charger in the box. You don't have to follow other brands. Because the charger is a very important need. It should be there. If we talk about the battery drain test, we started it at 97%. And we recorded a 4K video. We didn't playback on YouTube. We recorded a video from the camera in 4K. And after 2 hours, it drained 31%. This shows that if you use it heavily, it will definitely give you backup all day. We have done a mega battery drain test. We drained many phones at the same time, and thus phone was there too You may have seen that video or it will be coming soon. You will get to know everything in it. If we talk about its 5000 mAh battery with 45W charging, it will take 1 hour to fully charge it. Overall, the battery backup is very good. Because the UI and software has been optimized. after combining it, I can tell that you will get backup all day easily. Let's talk about the performance. It has MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Pro. This is a customized TSMC chipset. There is not much difference in this. There is only a difference in clock speed. this is 4nm, which is given by Dimensity 7200 Pro. Along with that, it has LPDDR4X and UFS 2.2. But I didn't like this. At least, it should have been LPDDR5 and UFS 3.1. Or if you have given LPDDR4X, then it should have been UFS 3.1. Many brands give UFS 3.1 at this price range. But I don't know why they did this. That's why they pushed an update here. And it says that it has enhanced background app performance. Does the app in the background stay in memory or not? Yes, it stays. because if you see here, YouTube app When I started the YouTube video, it was a long time ago. I had just opened it to experience the audio. When I opened it again, it started from there They have improved the background app. Still, the expectation is that RAM storage support should have been better. We did a rendering test in this. We did a 4-minute full HD video. And in 2 minutes and 48 seconds, it completed it. The results were good. The max heat was between 35-36 degrees. The render doesn't have much heat. But the results were very good. We also played a high-end graphics game The frame rate was constant at 60 FPS for half an hour. The best part was that the max heat was 39 degrees. Antutu scores were around 7 lakh. I have seen scores above 7 lakh in Dimensity 7200, but it's fine But the CPU throttling was very good. It was 86% and there was no throttling. But the thermals were slightly above 43 degrees. All in all, if we conclude all this the performance you get here is very good. if you play BGMI, Call of Duty, even we play high-end graphics games like Genshin Impact performance was good But the thermals are also very good. The performance is very good apart from RAM and storage support. Talking about the camera, you get 2 camera setups here. 50MP and 50MP. They have given a main sensor and an ultrawide sensor. They don't play 2MP games. I like it that Nothing's Carl pei also think like us YouTubers, that it should be like this, and he do it I like it. You get F1.88 aperture, OIS and EIS both here. It depends. OIS, If you try to take photos at night, it gives bright and blur free photos. EIS is also used in videos. It's not necessary that you get OIS only in videos. Sometimes there is EIS as well You also get Max 4K video support. There are many supported features in the camera. You get portrait features 1x, 2x, 50MP mode, Max 10x zoom in photos, 10x zoom in videos. There are many functions that you can take advantage of. If I talk about selfie, it is 32MP selfie. They have given a good quality selfie. Full HD 60fps. There is no 4K here. But you get full HD 60fps support. Let's start with slow motion videos. We have taken many videos. But slow motion quality is good. It could have been better. It seems that it is 120fps max. But I think it should have been 480fps. Because people enjoy slow motion videos. I didn't like it. If you look at the picture quality, we took photos after an update. The photos were very good. But I will notice one thing. There is a lot of contrast and brightness on the face. It shouldn't be there. Because sometimes you will feel that the photo is oversaturated. If you look at the portrait shots, there is a lot of contrast on the face. I haven't seen it on other phones. Other phones are a bit vibrant, which looks good but it is decent here, but the overall picture quality is good If you look at the dynamic range, if look at this tree photo, and if you zoom in, there is a border between the sky and the tree. It tells you that it has automatically put the sky in HDR. You can see the effect of this in tree It was done artificially. You will have to see it very carefully then will notice it. We're just getting it noticed But you don't have to do it. Apart from that, if you look at the selfies of the day, the selfies are good. The color correction is good. The dynamic range, in fact selfie is also good. I would definitely said that there have been improvements. there has been improvement in the night also if we compare the present photo with the previous photo, In fact, the oversharpening has been reduced in night If you look at the selfie shots, there is no oversharpening which I noticed earlier. You can see it here. If I talk about the video quality of the day, the stabilization is good. The dynamic range is good. Selfie video of the day is also good There has been an improvement in the night. If we look at it, HDR has been used there. you get stable videos. The video quality of the night, so after see it very closely, I ca say that there are very few phones at this price range that can produce good night videos The same goes for selfies. Selfies could have been better. Selfies are also doing a good job at night. I will say one thing about the camera. Overall, it took good pictures even before There have been improvements. But with the update, some things have been over, so they should fix it Let's talk about the design. You get a transparent back. This time, they have given you a camera setup in NFC, and they told us, and now I am telling this to you You get two colors. You get a black and a white. There are a lot of smudges in black, you don't get that much in white If you want to flaunt the glyph interface in black, you can take that black. If you want less smudges, you can take white. It depends on your preference. You get three glyph interfaces. One on the top, left and one on the side. You get all the features of glyph. You get a progress bar, a volume indicator, a notification, glyph to flip or whatever, you got that all here But there are some things which was in Nothing Phone 1 and 2 that are not in 2a in term of glyph When you put it on charging, you don't get to see the glyph of the charging indicator. Because there is no glyph there, so how can they give it They could have tried it on the top, but they didn't done here so we noticed this that when you put it on charge, you don't get any information. When you start recording with the camera, there was a red indicator. You might remember that you used to see it in phones 1 and 2at the back That's not here. These 2 things are not available here There is a plastic back and a plastic frame. But the frames are brushed and have a matte texture. That's good. The speaker quality is also good. Let me play an audio. It's on full volume. The bass is good. The volume quality is good. I didn't feel any distortion. The audio experience is good. You get a dual mic, type-c port, dual sim, volume buttons on the left and power button on the right. You get an under-display fingerprint scanner. The placement is good acording to phone size and the haptics are good. Overall, other haptics in the phone are also good and work well. I forgot to tell you one more thing. You get an IP54 rating. It can handle water splashes. Let's talk about the network connectivity. As I told, you get 5G, Bluetooth 5.3. For those who don't know, let me tell you that Bluetooth 5.3 has a better latency and range than 5.1 and 5.2. You get Wi-Fi 6, 4x4 MIMO which works well for range and connectivity. You get NFC and all the sensors. You get Widevine L1 and Camera2API. Let's talk about the price. You get it in 3 different variants. 8GB-128GB, 8GB-256GB, 12GB-256GB. It starts from Rs. 24,000 and starts from Rs. 23,999. Rs. 25,999 and Rs. 27,999. If you ask me that at this price range, whether this phone is good then after a long time, I can say that Nothing has done a good job after Nothing Phone 2. They have done a good job. They have kept an aggressive price. In Nothing Phone 2, people had a problem that the price is not good and the phone is not giving a good value. But this phone is giving a good value. First of all, the software is very good. If I have to give you a recommendation for a phone under Rs. 25,999 after looking at the software, design, display and performance in fact battery is also good then I will definitely recommend this phone. But I will say that, its camera is not the best in this price range, Samsung and OnePlus are better In fact, iQOO is also doing a good job in terms of the camera. The camera should be improved a little. Overall, the camera is also good. It is a very good phone, But let's hope if they give charger in the box It will be better. It also has longer updates as well, which is good This is our full review. If you want a long-term review, we will bring it after 3-6 months. Like, support and subscribe. Till then, always keep smiling.
