After launching the Nothing Phone 2a smartphone in March this year, the company has already announced a successor in the series – the Nothing Phone 2a Plus. We tested this smartphone for a week, and we found it very easy to recommend. Compared to the Nothing Phone 2a, this smartphone brings some nice upgrades. And as a smartphone in the sub-Rs 30,000 segment, the Nothing Phone 2a Plus is a great option and is capable of giving tough competition to other competitors in this segment. And starting today, August 7, the Nothing Phone 2a Plus will be available for purchase in India for the first time.

The best part is that on the first day of sale, the Nothing Phone 2A Plus will be available at a special launch price, which cuts the original price of the phone by Rs 3,000 for both models. This means that the 8GB RAM model, which was launched in India at a price of Rs 27,999, will be available today at Rs 24,999. Talking about the 12GB RAM model, the smartphone will be available at Rs 26,999 on the first day of sale, while it was launched at a price of Rs 29,999.

The Nothing Phone 2A Plus is also giving users in India some exclusive bragging rights. The smartphone is going on sale today only in India and will be available in the US, UK, and other countries sometime in September. Additionally, the 8GB RAM variant of the Nothing Phone 2A Plus is also going to be exclusive to the Indian market. In the global market, only the 12GB RAM option will be made available.

But is the Nothing Phone 2a Plus the right smartphone for you? “The Nothing Phone 2a Plus is perfect for anyone looking for a smartphone in the sub-Rs 30,000 price segment. It has a good display, a stunning design that will definitely turn heads (trust me and go for the grey variant), decent charging speeds, and great cameras. You also get the NothingOS experience, which is clean, intuitive, bloatware-free, and a little futuristic, all at the same time,” we wrote in our review.

“Even if your budget is a bit tight, I would suggest you go a little further and get the Phone 2a Plus instead of the Phone 2a. The smartphone promises 3 years of software updates and 4 years of security updates. This means you are set for at least the next three years. However, if you are already a Nothing Phone 2a user, I would suggest you wait for the Nothing Phone 3 or next year’s Nothing A-series,” the review further reads.
