It’s always wise to treat officially released camera samples with a pinch of salt, because of course no smartphone firm is going to issue images that show its device in anything but the best possible light. But the Nothing Phone (2) is getting a pretty big camera upgrade.
According toAndroidAuthority’s KamilaWojciechowska, the Nothing Phone (2) camera setup includes a new primary sensor, the Sony IMX890, which delivers in-sensor zoom and optical image stabilisation. That’s the same sensor you’ll find in the OnePlus 11, and it’s teamed up with the same Samsung JN1 sensor on the ultrawide camera as the Nothing Phone (1). The sensor on the selfie camera is a 32MP Sony IMX615.
TheSonyIMX890 is a very impressive sensor. In ourOnePlus 11 review, we said that the main camera results were “stunning… each scene is vibrant and full of life without looking unrealistic”. And the images that 9to5Google have been sharing from their review phone (with permission from Nothing) have been impressive too, with a noticeable improvement in quality over the photos from the first Nothing Phone.
Nothing Phone (2): key features, specifications and launch date
According to Wojciechowska, the key specs also include a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor; a 120Hz, 1,080 x 2,412 AMOLED display that supports 1Hz, 10Hz, 24Hz and 30Hz low power modes; the same optical fingerprint sensor as before; and some new wallpapers. “Seems like a fairly boring upgrade otherwise,” they add.
We really rate the Nothing Phone 1. In ourNothing Phone 1 reviewwe gave it four out of five stars and said it was good value for money. The cameras were good if not necessarily class-leading, and our only real niggle was the battery life. Hopefully the new Snapdragon will boost the battery life somewhat, and from what we’ve seen of the camera samples the new sensor delivers a welcome upgrade to the camera quality. We’ll find out more when theNothing Phone (2) launches on 11 July.
