TL; DR
- Nothing appeared online.
- The images suggest that the iPhone 6 series was not looked at for inspiration.
- Otherwise, the phone looks like an evolution on the Phone 1.
There’s been no teasing about the arrival of the Nothing Phone 2 for a while now, confirming several specs last month. Now, a trusted leaker has given us our first look at the phone.
Tipster SteveOnLeaksHemmerstoffer W Smart Brix Nothing Phone 2 shows off today was released, and our first thought is that the phone looks very similar to the iPhone 6 line. Check out the gallery below.
More specifically, we have a metal frame similar to the iPhone 6 series, complete with antenna strips on each side. Other than that, Nothing Phone 2 retains the same basic rear avatar and camera housing as Nothing Phone 1. We also get a left-aligned punch-hole cutout on the front.
Other notable features gained from these renders include a pair of volume keys on the left, a power button on the right, and a USB-C port and speaker grille on the bottom.
Phone 2 displays nothing: hot or not?

There are a few other small changes the port noted, such as a dual LED flash and Nothing glyph lighting that consists of smaller discrete lights instead of continuous light strips (ostensibly for more granular control).
Either way, Nothing Phone 2 definitely looks like an iterative design rather than a fundamental shift. We’re expecting a more noticeable upgrade under the hood thanks to the confirmed Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 SoC and a slightly larger battery. But we just have to wait for more leaks and official teasers to learn more about the phone.
