Carl Pei shows off new transparent cable for the Nothing Phone (2)

19 June 2023
Well, only the two USB-C ends are transparent. Nothing is focused on design, so even small touches matter.

I don't think anyone is on GSM just to read hundreds of comments from people crying because they don't have their Jack anymore.

    More than many else brands which pusing same thing every single year.

      Akinaro, 20 Jun 2023First nothing phone was meme, lots of hype, fancy lights...... moreNobody is pretending. Nothing Technology Limited isn't part of the BBK group.

            First nothing phone was meme, lots of hype, fancy lights... and everyone forgot about it month later. Now they advertise second one with transparent... USB cable. This show how good it will be...

            I with Carl Pei would be so TRANSPARENT with his product, stop pretending that he and devices that he "make" have nothing to do with Oppo/BBK

                maxmin, 20 Jun 2023You realize the 3.5 audio jack sounds worse than a USB-C DA... moreNot necessarily true, while separate DACs are very good, there are a few phones such as Asus rog 5/5s with audiophile grade dac built-in, but this is a rarity

                  maxmin, 20 Jun 2023You realize the 3.5 audio jack sounds worse than a USB-C DA... moreA fair comparison would be using earbuds with no adaptors, same headphones but one with 3.5mm and another with USB C ending; and plug into a media device that outputs both.

                      DarlingYext, 19 Jun 2023uuu, wait don't bring up cloud storage. I know you ... moreHa, I fully agree with you because I do exactly the same.

                        maxmin, 20 Jun 2023You realize the 3.5 audio jack sounds worse than a USB-C DA... moreI still have a fully working LG V20 with a pretty powerful QuadDAC and no USB-C DAC is needed.

                          KondriX, 19 Jun 2023Of course, there are a lot of people who care about the slo... moreYou realize the 3.5 audio jack sounds worse than a USB-C DAC cable with the same earbuds. Tested with a Pixel 5a. DAC cable much clearer with better stereo separation. If you're so hung up on audio with wired earbuds at least get decent sound with a USB-C DAC cable.

                            DarlingYext, 19 Jun 2023"You got that out of the context." No, I didn&... moreI've had 2 LG phones G2 & G3. G2 was an awesome phone. My longest used phone still to date. All though, Galaxy S3 got close, after i root it.

I admit that for users of w... moreYou know, I also have a wireless buds, and I still can't get used to the fact that I still need to charge it at the end of the day. (even though I only use it actively when I go out, but still my wired earphones that I use at home are far more convenient for my personal experience).

It's not like Samsung's sales will decrease if you add these two features. Fanboys just don't want to accept that their favorite company is making a lot of profit from selling their wireless buds and their storage upgrade.

                                    Okay cool. I like Carl always pushing the boundaries 👏👏👏 in design & software efficiency just like the old Onplus, now Opplus has lost a vision because there once visionary leader is now Nothing. Just waiting jump in the Nothing wagon when they come up with faster charging speeds for a faster charging speed of 100W for a 30mins tops full charge Carl👏👏👏
