The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus 12GB RAM / 256GB is Nothing's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.7 inches, 107.5 cm2 (~87.1% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Mediatek Dimensity 7350 Pro (4 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 1,350 in the UAE and ₹27,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus excels with its 120Hz AMOLED display at 1300 nits peak brightness, delivering vivid outdoor visibility, and 50W wired charging that hits 50% in 21 minutes — rare at this price. Its 16h 34m active battery life outlasts most mid-range rivals. Ideal for urban commuters in Dubai and Delhi who need all-day endurance, 5G reliability, and NFC for contactless payments without paying flagship prices. Its weakness? Thermals throttle under sustained gaming, as the Cortex-A715 cores heat up noticeably after 20 minutes of intensive use. In UAE at AED 1350, it’s competitive because no other phone under AED 1500 offers 120Hz HDR10+ and 50W charging. In India at ₹27999, it’s overpriced — the Poco X6 Pro offers similar display and charging at ₹24999 with better cooling. Choose the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus only if you prioritize clean software and design over raw thermal performance.
