The Nothing Phone (2a) bursts onto the scene with a compact, boxy design and a center-aligned punch-hole selfie camera. Thin bezels frame the display, keeping the focus on visuals. Familiar buttons reside on the sides: power on the right, volume rockers on the left.

But the real eye-catcher is the back. Ditching the iconic Glyph Interface, the Phone (2a) embraces a fresh design language. A circular module in the top center houses two cameras and a flash, encircled by three mysterious Glyph LED strips. Screws peek through the semi-transparent back, adding an industrial touch. A curvy element flows from the camera to the bottom, hinting at improved ergonomics or simply design flair.

Price-wise, expect to shell out around Rs 25,000 in India. Under the hood, the Phone (2a) packs a punch with a Dimensity 7200 Pro processor and 12GB of RAM (boosted by 8GB of virtual RAM) for smooth performance.
