Honesty is the biggest difference between reviewers like you that bought this phone with own money and reviewers who are afraid wont get review unit from Nothing anymore.

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Tq so much for the kind words buddy. I was just voicing my honest view 🤭 appreciate your support

[@sebastiento9695]

It's glass, can confirm, it also sounds "hollow" because there's space between the glass and the back component to show the transparent design

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Well, I saw from other review that it's plastic. But gsmarena said that it is glass. No info from official website. Anyway it felt cheap

[@sebastiento9695]

@@MarcYeoTechReview official website says the back glass is Gorilla Glass 5... When you scroll down to compare against Nothing Phone 1

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

​@@sebastiento9695yes. That's what i said in my previous message, glass 😊

[@adityadange954]

Being NP2 user i agree with almost all of your points, I'm even facing touch panel issues & huge battery drain after multiple service visits and factory resets... Hoping that situation will get better with upcoming updates but i still feel that my previous OnePlus 3T was far superior when it comes to build quality & UI optimization being 7+ year old device... May opt for refund or replacement device but as of now nobody from nothing is accepting their device associated fault..

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Just return it buddy if u can. There are lots of better alternatives with similar price or even lower price. Thanks for your support to my channel 😊

[@adityadange954]

@@MarcYeoTechReview Sure, Nothing is not ready to claim that they've got touch panel related issues, on community page in India there are already 50+ users who are facing same issues but they're still waiting for resolution from the nothing support..

[@ziyanglin8453]

i think that this phone is more of an all rounder and rather than just being the best at everything it is good at all things and it gives users a new experience cos there it gives a stock android experience with little bloatware compared to brands like xiaomi and samsung and i think it comes down to the users I think the 8+ gen 1 is an adequate chipset and 8 gen 2 is not really needed for day to day use

[@ziyanglin8453]

and what I see mostly is u comparing specs but I believe you should do some real world comparison between these phones rather than just say that this phone is bad at something without something to compare with but nice work

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Thanks for the views. But I don't think so that it is all rounder. The camera is pretty bad with terrible video recording stabilization. And battery life is mediocre. The only thing is still the glyph interface. If you want stock android experience Pixel 7 which is much cheaper would be a better choice with much better camera 😊

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

I agree. I don't force others on my views. It's your choice 😊

[@BigJeffroeX438]

Wow sorry that you're having such a bad experience with the NP2 I've had nothing but a positive experience with the device. I have a lot of phone's in my arsenal.from flagships to mid-rangers to Budget Phones and out of all my devices the NP2 is one of my favorites. It just seems weird that everyone I've that I've recommended this device to loves but you say that the phone is trash.The only weak part I can say that this phone has is the cameras other than that you get a flagship experience for a mid-range price.

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Phone market is very competitive in Malaysia! So to me this phone is not so worth it. But if you like this phone. Good for u 😊

[@ramonmiah5361]

Nothing phone 2 8 gb 128gb variant Malaysia ada ke boss☺️

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Tak ada. Jgn beli la. Bazir duit

[@aidansalik8464]

I am really torn between NP2 and Xiaomi 13. The NP2 really appeals to me, design-wise and software. I think its enough for my level of usage. But what turned me off was its price, like it doesn't do justice, spec-wise. (Lol, it doesn't even come with a charging brick) Meanwhile, Xiaomi 13 packing Gen 2 whilst priced at 30% cheaper than NP2 (i think).

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Omg... Get the Xiaomi 13 instead. Better performance and camera... And of coz cheaper in your country

[@sathishkumar-hz5ei]

What do you think about nothing phone 1 if we get brand new for less than 350 dollars for 256 gb variant

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

350 dollars as in USD?

[@sathishkumar-hz5ei]

Do you know when the telco operators will release the phone?

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

U mean in Malaysia? So far only the only telco is YES

[@Darylchin244]

Spot on detailed review. Should try on gaming too

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Tq bro for supporting my channel.. Gaming performance is fine on this phone just like last year snapdragon 8+ gen 1 phone

[@vcom]

If s23 is cheaper than nothing phone 2 in your region then pls go ahead and buy it, 8 gen2, extra telephoto lens, 4 years of Android updates and Best customization of one ui is totally worth it!!!!! I think nothing only supprts 3 years of Android updates...

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Yes exactly. I don't understand why some people are so blinded by the hype and the gimmicks, when practicality and functionality are more important in a phone 😅

[@vcom]

@MarcYeoTechReview yeah bro all back functionality is a gimmick and you can add it as an always on display with 2k resolution glyph light😂

[@mukeshsahani6452]

I think you are too obsessed with Chinese smart phone companies. Anyways will buy and Support NP2. For your information every chinese phones has lot of boaltwares, adwares in their premium flagship Smart phones.

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

If it's good i will say it. If it's not I won't force myself to compliment. Many phones available in the market now are better than this overpriced piece of work

[@Brendan115]

Overall specs is good. But the camera is really 'bummer'. Maybe there need to co-operate with better lens and software team.

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Exactly... What is 2022 flagship chipset phone without a proper camera right

[@ckexecable]

Rowdy but point blank honest! Good review!

yalo...busy mar :P

[@BluedragonLeo]

I think you didn't put much effort on researching about this phone.. Both front and back glass are gorilla glass 5.. And now i know for a fact .. That no matter what anyone does things to make people happy and interested.. It only lasts a week.. Tell me how much days you enjoy a simple glass back on different normal phone..? By the way many of your opinions doesn't matter becoz they contradict to what i am experiencing.. Maybe about the glyphs or battery or camera or display. And really bro? Battery mediocre?😂😂. I think you have ruined your ability to get impressed or get happy in your life... That's why your review feels more of an illogical and factless opinions.. Whatever...i just loved it a lot.. And glyphs are not a gimmick if you know how to use it.. So try learning new things to live life..

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Everything I already explained in the video. Yes I read that it's GG5. So what? It still felt cheap on my hand. Well as long as u happy, that is most important. U have your views, and I'm entitled to mine

[@BluedragonLeo]

Bro.. There is a difference between your opinion and review... Honest review and honest opinion are different.. Check meaning of both first.. And still it's opinion then change the title first... Secondly.. If you know it's GG5 and still it feels cheap.. Then who's problem is that? 😂😂 your hand's sensitivity? How can be GG5 feel cheap bro? It's one of the most premium looking and feeling phone.. Why do you hate it? Couldnt get the review unit for free?? So?

Update your phone 2.0.2a

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Already pressed update button. But "nothing" appeared

[@Bx81m2A]

I agree with you for a flagship price you don't get a flagship phone And those fake reviews trying to say it's soo good and worth it cuz of the nothingOS whice obviously has bugs and it's not just you I've seen others talk about this as well not to mention by previous updates there was a lot" bug fix" and it's still here Nice improvement but this phone cannot compete with the flagships

[@MarcYeoTechReview]

Yes. Correct. Got improvement, but so what? 😂 For that price is a total ripped off 🙄 I'm glad to share out this issues with everyone. Nothing has a lot to buck up!
