Well, it's official. The Nothing Phone (2) is coming – and its launch date is pretty soon. The company – fresh off the back of being named Brand of the Year at the prestigious T3 Awards – announced yesterday that their next-gen device would launch on the 11th of July.
We already know a few things about the impending Android phone. A Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor will power things. It's also set to pack a marginally larger display for a little added screen real estate.
As you'd expect, the teaser image doesn't give too much more away. We see the iconic Glyph lighting illuminated against a black backdrop. That's accompanied by a duo of curled tentacles.
I wouldn't read too much into the tentacles. Nothing have a habit of tying each release to a different animal – the Nothing Phone (1) was a parrot; the Nothing Ear (2) was a beetle – with seemingly little relevance to the product itself.
It's a feature that has been heavily requested since the first model launched. While the Glyph on that handset was a fun party piece, it was never great at being all that useful. Adding more functionality and customisability could turn the feature into a real headline point for the device.
Now, I know what you're thinking. That's quite a leap to make from a black and white photo of the back of a device. But I'm going one step further.
We'll know for sure in just a few short weeks.
