Nothing Phone (2) design imaged by concept creator: this is how Carl Pei reacted

Highlights

• The Nothing Phone (2) launch is expected to launch later this year.
• A concept creator has now made a video showcasing what the Nothing Phone (2) could look like.
• Nothing founder Carl Pei reacted to the concept design, calling it “stellar”.

The Nothing Phone (1) launched last year, and the time for a second-generation model is coming soon. The startup confirmed the launch of Nothing Phone (2) but there’s still no official confirmation on when we might actually see the device. The Nothing Phone (1) is one that grabbed a lot of attention in the smartphone industry so there’s a great deal of expectation on the Nothing Phone (2).

There’s also not much we know about the Nothing Phone (2) but that hasn’t stopped this concept creator from imaging what it could look like. Shea, who goes by the Twitter handle @concept_central, shared a short video showcasing the concept design of Nothing Phone (2), which attracted a response not just from the official Twitter handle of Nothing, but also the founder-CEO Carl Pei, who called the design “stellar” and said it made the company’s job harder.

Stellar work, making our jobs harder.

Nothing Phone (2) design concept

In the concept video, we can see that the Nothing Phone (2) retains the white LEDs which the company calls the ‘Glyph Interface’, and which is also the standout feature of the Nothing Phone (1). One key difference that we can notice in the design is the camera module. The Nothing Phone (1) has an iPhone XS-like dual-camera module that is placed vertically. On the Nothing Phone (2) there’s a triple-camera setup that has a triangle-like design. And like the company’s design language, everything looks very sharp and geometrical. 

The punch-hole camera has been moved to the centre of the screen with the earpiece just sitting on top of it. The volume buttons are on the left side of the phone with the power button on the right. Other than that we can see the iPhone 12-like flat edges on the Nothing Phone (2). 

Just to be clear, this is only a concept design and not the official or final design of the Nothing Phone (2). But it was good enough to attract a reply from Pei himself. Considering how Nothing went all out for the Phone (1) it seems unlikely that we will see some major design changes with its successor. We are expecting some upgrades under the hood though.
