Moving on to the successor Nothing Phone (2), it still inherits a similar design style from its predecessor but has been slightly refined by the manufacturer. Firstly, the frame of the device, which was square like its 'elder brother', has been softened a bit and this also applies to the back. Therefore, the overall appearance of Nothing Phone (2) looks softer, more graceful than Nothing Phone (1).

Specifically, Nothing Phone (1) only had 12 LED strips on the back, while with Nothing Phone (2), it has been increased to 33 surrounding the back.

Additionally, through the Glyph Interface app with the Glyph Timer feature, you can set timers like other phones but it will be visually displayed through the LED strip on the back. This allows you to place the phone face down on the table and still see if the timer has expired or not.
