Nothing Phone (2a) Plus announced with Dimensity 7350 Plus, 50MP selfie cam and 50W charging

The Phone (2a) from Nothing only launched back in March and it’s already getting a successor. The Phone (2a) Plus is a souped-up version of the Phone (2a) with an updated chipset, a new 50MP selfie camera, and two new color options – metallic Grey and updated Black.

Dimensity 7350 Plus is the big new change. It’s an overclocked version of the Dimensity 7200 Pro from the Phone (2a) built in collaboration with MediaTek exclusively for the Phone (2a) Plus.

The new chip features an eight-core CPU with 2x Cortex-A715 cores clocked at 3.0 GHz alongside 6x Cortex-A510 units @ 2.0 GHz. The GPU uses the same Mali-G610 MC4 unit but is now running at 1.3 GHz. Nothing says you can expect a 10% faster CPU performance and a 30% bump in GPU-intensive tasks.

Moving on to the second major change – Phone (2a) Plus gets a new 50MP front-facing camera which replaces the 32MP front-facing cam on the Phone (2a). The new imager now supports 4K video recording at up to 30fps. It’s still located inside the punch-hole cutout on the 6.7-inch AMOLED screen (FHD+ 120Hz). The back houses the same 50MP main cam (24mm) and 50MP ultrawide lens.
