Ortana, 24 Nov 2023Compare it with the 23U. Too bad it speaks otherwise.And didn't you see, I said it costs about $300 more? Not everyone lives in SG btw. And not even everyone in SG prefers to buy from carousell, so I would like you to list other alternatives other than the weirdly priced S23 Ultra.

Ortana, 24 Nov 2023Basically your entire argument is denying that a higher spe... more8 gen 2 Vs 8+ gen 1, yes it's faster chip, but I'm very sure that for your usage there won't be much difference.
And take a look at GSMarena's scores, Nothing 14:21 Vs S23 ultra 13:24.
And just for your information Phone 2 is a high-end phone, not a midrange.

What's so difficult about putting an extra day's worth of salary to make a phone better in every other way. You are comparing a midrange with a flagship,and denying that the flagship is better.

Your android skin isn't IOS. It's just a skin that does little at best.

Shadocx, 24 Nov 2023Why are you complaining about One UI lagging on Galaxy A51 ... moreSure, but Nothing OS actually feels more fluid out of the box, even when you don't put them side by side. Just see the difference.

Ortana, 24 Nov 2023So you are saying that saving a pathetic 200 dollars for wo... moreWorser battery? Lmao, phone 2 clearly has better battery. Worser ram? They both have the same amount of RAM. You're also getting better software.
Better screen? Because of the resolution? It's just nothing but an extra battery consumer. FHD+ is enough unless you're pixel peeping.
And just a correction, it's actually about 300$ ($288).
If you want to spend $300 more, go ahead. Don't force others to do that.
And replying to your other comments, I never said it will be better than 8 gen 2 in everything, but launching apps are faster when coupled with the software. Don't want to post link, so I'll just post the YouTube title:

Ortana, 24 Nov 2023Purely an assumption that the NP2 won't lag. It's... moreNot sure we can even call the SD 8+ Gen 1 in the Nothing Phone 2 a SD 8+ Gen 1, it's basically downclocked to SD 8 Gen 1 speeds, but at least it's not overheating and draining battery fast since it's fabbed by TSMC.

This is incomparable to the Galaxy S23 series with overclocked SD 8 Gen 2 worldwide.

Note 9 is noticeably less laggy, but still more laggy than average. I even tried factory resetting the A51, still noticeable lags.

BTW, managed to find a brand new Nothing Phone 2 with 256gb on that website for $800 SGD. $200 cheaper than S23 Ultra, so how is it a waste of money?

Ortana, 23 Nov 2023For that kind of money you can get the S23 ultra,256gb/512g... moreIt depends where you live.
If I wanted to buy the S23 Ultra today, it costs me 999€ for the 256 Gb storage, it was 1419€ at launch.
The Nothing is a lot cheaper being 729€ when I bought it in August.
