justasmile, 16 Jan 2024As I said, IP68 is a gimmick.But not as gimmicky as glyphs.

My lenses and camera bodies have gaskets in them and are weather sealed and resistant to dust and moisture. My lenses without this weather sealing developed molds inside them, which costs me money for parts replacement and shipping. IP rating is simply a standard or a system that defines the level of resistance against water or dust and so on.

It's up to the manufacturers on how they would implement it. Therefore some brands might do a terrible job and others could be more successful.

Devices with IP-ratings (or whatever it is) and weather-sealing incorporated in the "hardware" are existing, not only in phones. In a broader sense, they're not a gimmick when done right. Rubber gaskets are placed between the gaps of a hardware where water might seep into, no matter what device that is, is an advantage over no protection at all.

This phone is too gimmicky although the glyph can be a useful way for the phone to communicate to its users while faced down, their research budget should have been allocated to better weather sealing (ruggedness and hardware longevity) and AI enhancements and features that are currently exclusive to Pixel devices.

          For $700 we don't get an IP-68 protection that we get from $350 devices from lots of years ago; we don't get wireless charge as well as Victus that we get from $400 phones from a few years back, and the latest chipset from Snapdragon.
          Also, the placement of the front-facing camera follows the norm now, as opposed to Phone 1, which is irritating. To fit the brand, the camera should be hidden under the display like there's nothing there, which is all screen.
          Branding is pretentious as well. Well, it follows the norm.

            They nailed the OS implementation, but the lack of an IP-68 rating and real-life quality photos day and night are disappointing.

                I've had this NP2 for a week now and updated to the current OS 2.5.1A.
                It's a well balanced device for my purposes and I got this with a new contract with unlimited data for less then I was payment EE for unlimited data per month.
                I went with the grey 256GB the only thing I don't like as far as when I connect a USBC adapter with micro usb memory card I have to keep going into settings to activate OTG. While all my other Android device when using the same USBC adapter and memory card it loads automatically. The other this is the default weather widget needs access to Location fully to give weather detail.
                As for the phones radio device the 4G & 5G are much stronger and stable then my Samsung devices and download are very fast compared to the same sim card used in this phone and then put in the Samsung devices.
                The light's on the back not for me, I just wanted a near standard Android OS and a cheap contact which I got now.
                It's a very lightweight device and plus the screen is great, I've read some people have had audio issues like audio is low on calls, and or music on ear piece, loudspeaker or even Bluetooth earphones.
                As for the Google default apps I went with, gallery, file manager, and media players of my own choice.
                Restricted most of Google default permissions and apps that I don't use.
                Very happy with my choice with the NP2.

                          I thought that it would be priced at a mid-range price with flagship specifications, apparently there is no difference.

                                Finally received my update today. Located in Thailand.

                                  I have 3 phones:
                                  1: iPhone 15pro (my primary device).
                                  2: Galaxy S23.
                                  3: Nothing 1

                                  TBH, Nothing phone is my favorite device, I enjoy watching YouTube, and playing games on this great device, also the battery is awesome, I hope NP3 will also come in 6.5 screen, and Snapdragon 8 Gen3.

                                      I'm on O2 in UK and not had update yet for 2.5 OS14... Anyone know if carriers are taking time with releases or something? I'm on Nothing Phone 2...

                                        BMHater12, 17 Dec 2023So 2.5 on the Phone 1 will come after New Year? Probably.
