    I love this phone. Great sales.
    Are first design was too showy for me and now i like it. Also a good snapodragon, always preferred especially than exoshyte.

    Pictures look clean for a better word. Selfies are good, even i'd prefer a bit more details here.

    What I'm wondering is reliability , both hardware and software ( bugs, smooth, consistency, easy... )

    Also i absolutely h**te forced updates, it's no-go for me. Are they desactivable forever without anoyances ( remond, auto reactivate and all' those bl***d'y darkk patterns brands 'invented. last years )?

    And about bloats spy-ad-crapppyware and co, are there many and desactivable / removable ?

                    400 $ and no charger in the box .... Stop comparing these things with 14Ts from Xiaomi/edges from Motorola and telling us they 50$ cheaper

                      Anonymous, 24 Mar 2025It's not just poco, realme, Oneplus all have better of... moreThere will be a Nothing Phone (3) later on if you're that concerned.

                        No DOLBY ATMOS sound on any Nothing phone? Not even these newest models! I just searched this topic and got an answer that it's no. And no DIRAC which is another alternative. All Nothing phones should therefore sound crap especially with headphones and are not worth buying. This is only my opinion. I have noticed on all my phones during the last 3-4 years that Dolby Atmos enhance the sound quality to a completely different level (muffled boring when turned off). Any Nothing owners here, I'd like to hear your honest opinions how a Nothing phone sounds without DA especially when listening to music on headphones.

                          One of the reasons (aside from the design and UI) I like Nothing phones is the battery lifespan. These current-gen phones are a letdown in that aspect.

                            Mattey, 26 Mar 2025Jesus, whatta heck is wrong with you people and headphone j... morethis phone sucks. it's not good enough to make me forget about the headphone jacks.

                            and wait, you're telling me to forget about chargers in 2025?

                            LMAO peak consumerism. "THE COMPANY IS GOOD BRO YOU SUCK"

                              Muthu, 26 Mar 2025Poco is far better....for YOU. Don't ever assume that ... moreIt's not suitable for u, but it is a better phone by default.

                                Mond, 26 Mar 2025Each phone like nothing and Poco have different advantages ... moreCan somewhat agree. I got the X7 Pro and I'm happy with it. The sheer hardware power it has is unmatched for the price... But I think I would have gotten this 3a phone if it was being sold in my country. The software experience/optimization looks much better, and I like its design and that cool blue color.

                                    I don't get why this phone got only 4.1 score. It's much better value than 3a pro and 2x tele vs 3x isn't always an advantage.
                                    Not to mention it looks way better.
                                    Other midrangers have bloaware or ads , nothing of the sort here. A clean software experience. Only thing worth mentioning is the haptics could be better

                                        Nothing is not first nor last company that ditched all three features. They are GONE, get over it or buy some low-end c*ap.
