Transcripts
this is a nothing phone 2A if there's a
world's most beautiful cell phone
tournament it has the chance to win and
this is nothing phone's former brother
OnePlus new ace 3B coincidentally we
both got them for $330 and this nothing
phone 2A has been getting a lot of
positive reviews lately so I guess
you're also wondering is this phone
really as unbeatable as they say it is
the OnePlus h3v should be taking on the
challenge the nothing phone really does
a good job in unboxing experience with
eco-friendly material customized
charging cable and car pins there should
be no one else in the same price range
that can do better than this phone in
comparison the a3v is rather ordinary
and nothing special however the nothing
phone 28 doesn't come with a free
charger while the a3v gets one anyway
and it's a 100 watt which one has a
better unboxing experience varies from
person to person but I'm definitely the
one who prefers have having a charger
included when I put the two phones side
by side they don't seem to be in the
same price range of course the nothing
phones a strong point is the unique look
a lot of YouTubers have already
explained in great detail about the
design and how cool the LED lights on
the back I won't repeat it they didn't
lie it's indeed a Flex phone design
caliber look at the a3v next to it
that's the average level of most $300
phones with that really hilarious flash
I'm sure anyone who have no hesitation
in picking up the nothing phone 2A the
front of the 2A is also as good as ever
if I'm not wrong it was the first phone
on the $400 with equal width bezels on
all four sides even the a3v has thin
bezels but the overall look is still far
behind the 2A the bad news is that the
specs aren't as good as they look on the
outside it's not bad it's just not that
good the a3v is a little bit better in
terms of screen quality but the
difference is barely noticeable
personally I'm willing to give the 2A a
thumbs up well the next part is a bit
cruel for nothing vone 2A because
qualcom recently released the snat 7
plus gen 3 the dein 7200 Pro from
nothing phone 2A looks too weak as with
appearance it's hard to believe that
these two phones are in the same price
range while playing big games I could
feel the 2A begging me please stop
torturing me meanwhile the a3v is
challenging those flexure phones even if
the temper gets higher its gaming
experience has touched the line of
flexure phones to take care of nothing
phone 2 is a little hard let's play some
games where the load isn't as heavy pubg
mobile a game that runs smoothly on any
phone although nothing phone 2A can only
have extreme frame rates as smooth
Graphics at least it's finally smooth to
play I must say the 7 plus Gen 3 is a
great processor even if the smoothness
is all about the same the power
consumption can be lower if you're a big
gamer or want your phone phone to last
longer the OnePlus a3b is definitely the
better choice both phones have a camera
system that uses a combination of a main
Camera Plus an ultra wide camera there's
no teleph camera and no macro camera
let's talk about the ultra wide camera
first the nothing phone uses a larger 50
megapixel sensor and the a3b still has
that 8 megapixel one so whether it's day
or night the clarity is definitely
better on the 2A sadly though just when
I thought the nothing phone was going to
win it surprised me take a look at this
photo check the
corners then check the
center this chromatic aberration problem
is much worse than I thought the edges
are all red it's even more noticeable in
this photo you can see the leaves with
some ranging artifact let me show you
something a little funnier in the video
recording the sky in 28 footage looks
like it's burning by the way this is a
video recorded by the main camera which
which means that the main camera also
has this problem so as long as you don't
shoot at the skies and leaves most of
the photos from the main camera don't
have this issue and every photo is
vibrant and bright but the color
fringing issue is so overwhelming that
i' be hard pressed to say the nothing
phone 2A has a great camera this 3v is
as stable as ever without too many
highlights and no unacceptable drawbacks
to be found other than the ultra wi
camera being a little less sharp is not
much different different than the 2A
I'll vote for the a3v in the camera
session just because I don't want to
screw up when I need to capture the
great moment the 100 wat wide charging
wins the race for the a3b no doubt about
it but there's one thing the nothing
phone 2A doesn't need a special charger
a random PD charger can charge it at
full power which the a3v can't do but
a3v has a 5,500 mamp battery which is
also something that 2A can do in
addition to the regular battery Live
Test we also found nothing phone's
standby power consumption to be
particularly high in use with the aod
turned on and the background cleared 1
hour of standby consumed the 4% of the
power which is the same amount of power
that other phones consume in the night
of standby this is the most unacceptable
thing about this phone so for the
charging and the battery session I would
give the score to the OnePlus
a3b after a series of comparisons the
nothing phone 2A does perform well in
some areas such as the beautiful design
and Screen the we point is that the
processor is outdated which makes you
worry about lagging after a few years of
use the camera and battery light also
needs to be improved the OnePlus a3b is
really impressive with this high
performance and big battery
unfortunately it's a little bit uglier
making it look inferior to the 2A
there's also no Global version at the
moment so you can't buy it anywhere
except China which one is better I'll
leave the answer to you but I'm sure
that nothing phone 2 a is not as good as
they say it is at least it won't be the
best mid-range phone of 2024 because
there are still 8 months left for the
big Brands to create their best
mid-range
phones I'm we F from China and we'll see
you next
