The Nothing Phone (2) listing on the Geekbench website has confirmed a few details before the launch. It was revealed that the next Nothing phone would house a flagship Snapdragon chipset, and Qualcomm has also referred to this. Although the company has officially announced the Nothing Phone (2), the precise launch date has yet to be disclosed. According to rumours, the newest phone model will launch in June the following month.

Here is all the information you require

Because the motherboard part of the Geekbench listing contains "taro," a word linked to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC in several publications, the device may have this processor. It's important to note that Alex Katouzian, SVP and GM of the Mobile, Compute, and XR divisions at Qualcomm, has already confirmed on LinkedIn that the Nothing Phone (2) will use a Snapdragon 8 series chip after deleting the post in which he unintentionally revealed that the device would use a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. Now, the Geekbench listing has made the same suggestion.

Will the price of the Nothing Phone (2) be higher?

Even though it isn't the newest, this processor is relatively fast and has recently powered numerous top phones. The price may be significantly higher than the model from last year because a flagship chip is being used. It probably uses the most recent Android 13 OS version. We anticipate doing the same with the next version as the company did with the previous year's model, which had the most recent software. Remember that the first-generation Nothing Phone (1) was unveiled in India with a starting price of Rs 32,999? Under the hood, it has a mid-range Snapdragon 778G+ processor.

Specifications of the Nothing Phone (2)

The listing also states that the Nothing phone will use Android 13 OS and have up to 12GB of RAM. The Nothing Phone (2) will have an FHD+ display, according to leaks. It is anticipated to sport an AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh capabilities. Punch-hole display designs, now widespread in the market, are most likely to be seen on the front. It is still being determined whether the Nothing Phone (2) smartphone's exterior design will alter. There may be slight adjustments in this department, according to the leaks. Because the firm has been using this style for all of its items, we may see a semi-transparent design there.

Battery and Camera of the Nothing Phone (2)

According to the reports, the 5G Nothing Phone (2) phone might have three cameras on the back, including a 50-megapixel primary camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS) for steady photos. Other sensors' specifics are still a mystery. Under the hood, there might also be a 5,000mAh battery. This is a significant improvement over the 4,500mAh battery in the previous model, which also supported 33W fast charging. The business is expected to support 67W fast charging technology.
