Feels like a bit overpriced to me.

Was always going to happen with Nothing. They are a bit too pretentious as it shows in their marketing. They wanna be the enthusiast phone with all the gimmicks that they can sell to people at a premium, but needed a foot in the door, so priced the NP1 quite competitively. Now they have attention they can bump the prices up. All the talk about 'innovation' and how nobody does it anymore, but then they just create a rehashed NP1.

They haven't even shared all the details of the phone, I still don't know what glass it has except for it being some version of gorilla glass. Plus it only has an IP54 rating, which is laughable for this price range honestly. If it was priced like the NP1 it would be great and would put some pressure on other players in the market.

"Never settle" or something

I was hoping they'd upgrade to RGB LEDs in this version (which would make it a LOT more useful), but they didn't, instead they just released a rehashes NP1.

apple also priced m1 air competitively and increased price for m2 way too much

and now no one's buying the m2

Also disappointed, but kinda expected this to happen. I wanted to get the Phone (2) but at this amount it's just not worth it. Meanwhile the Phone (1) is also still available, and if the price drops even more I might consider getting it instead.

Yeah I think they needed to aim for around £450, though even then they're up against the A54.

[-] reclipse@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago

It's better than A54.
