Nothing Phone (2a) Launches on March 5 2024. Here’s What We Know So Far…

As the launch of Nothing’s mid-range smartphone, the Nothing Phone (2a), draws near. Nothing has released a 10-minute video, in which it hinted at creating a truly special device for its community.

Why Phone (2a)? ft. Carl Pei

The official launch of the Nothing Phone (2a) is set for March 5, 2024, with a global release expected to follow. However, for US customers, a unique twist awaits – the need to enrol in a “Developer Program” to acquire the device. This echoes the approach taken during the Phone (1) launch, signalling a strategic move in the US market.

A notable change highlighted in the video is the absence of the “Beta Membership” label used during the Phone (1) launch, suggesting enhanced US network support.

Adding to the intrigue, Nothing teased a crucial detail – the price. While the exact cost remains undisclosed, the company assured viewers that the Phone (2a) would come at a more affordable price point than its predecessor, the Phone (1), initially priced at $299 in the US.

Leaked information has started to surface, providing a sneak peek into the Phone (2a). According to tipster Yogesh Brar, the device is rumoured to feature a 6.7-inch OLED panel, Dimensity 7200 Ultra SoC, 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and a 32MP selfie shooter. With a promising 45W fast charging support, the Phone (2a) is shaping up to be a compelling mid-range option.

As the countdown to March 5 continues, speculations abound on what Nothing will unveil next. Will they manage to keep the mystery intact, or will leaks gradually unravel the excitement?

Stay tuned for more updates as Nothing drops hints, promising a unique device that combines affordability with cutting-edge features.

Vivo X100 Series Lands In Malaysia; Prices Start at RM3,499

The Vivo X100 series made its debut late last November in China. The new X100 series is the next edition of Vivo’s ambitions to be the go-to camera smartphone for the masses. The new X100 series comes with the latest imaging technology from both Vivo and its partner – ZEISS.

Powerfully Similar With Minute Differences

Vivo is touting the X100 series as its most powerful flagship to date. Both the X100 Pro and the vanilla X100 run on the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 processor. This processor marks a change in architecture that focuses on supercharging smartphone performance. Previously, smartphone processors came with a combination of performance and efficiency cores. With the Dimensity 9300, this paradigm shifts to only performance cores. However, that doesn’t mean that power efficiency is taking a backseat.

When it comes to the silicon, both smartphones differ only in their image processing chip; the X100 comes with the Vivo V2 which debuted last year while the X100 Pro comes with the brand new Vivo V3. The Vivo V3 comes with updated fabrication technology and supports more complex imaging features like multi-concurrent AI-ISP architecture and second-generation Frame Info Tunneling (FIT) technology. Both the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal memory. No lower variants or the 1TB variant have been indicated at this time.

vivo X100 series 10

The X100 comes with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 120W Dual-Cell FlashCharge. The Vivo X100 Pro, on the other hand, comes with a larger 5,400mAh battery with support for wireless FlashCharge and 100W Dual-Cell FlashCharge. Both versions of the X100 come with a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

ZEISS Co-engineered Cameras with Improved Features

The Vivo X100 series also carries forward the partnership between ZEISS and Vivo when it comes to camera technology. The new X100 Pro comes packed with some of the latest innovations when it comes to smartphone photography. That said both versions of the X100 come with formidable setups.

vivo X100 series 13

The vanilla X100 comes with a triple camera setup with a 50-megapixel VCS True Colour sensor for the main camera. This is complemented by a 64-megapixel ZEISS Telephoto sensor and a 50-megapixel super wide-angle camera. Meanwhile, the X100 Pro ups the ante with a 1-inch, 50-megapixel ZEISS sensor as its main camera. This is complemented by a 50-megapixel ZEISS APO Floating Telephoto sensor and a 50-megapixel Super wide-angle camera. The 50-megapixel ZEISS APO Floating telephoto sensor comes with the new Vario-Apo-Sonnar standard from ZEISS. Thanks to this, you’ll be able to take more detailed and vibrant close-up and long-distance shots even at 6X and 10X zoom. Both of the smartphones come with the ZEISS T* coating.

Pricing & Availability

The Vivo X100 will be retailing for RM3,499 while the X100 Pro will be priced at RM4,599. Both variants will be available in two colours: Asteroid Black and Startrail Blue.

X100 Pre order

OPPO is no stranger to foldables with its Find N2 flip having already made waves last year. The N3 Flip is geared to do the same with its flagship-class triple-sensor camera. In fact, it’s the first flip form factor to have one. And that’s not all it has…

Hey there! Jeevan here for techENT. This is the OPPO N3 Flip.

The Oppo Find N3 Flip is one of the prettiest flip phones available on the market right now. It’s coming in cream gold, mist pink, and astral black.

This new device may look very similar to the Find N2, but it’s got subtle updates that make it sleeker and nicer to hold in hand. The edges of the smartphone are more rounded for ergonomics and it’s got an alert slider.

On the front, it has a 3.26-inch AMOLED cover display complete with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. The cover display is also one of the most robust with OPPO’s own mini-app system which is even more extensive this year thanks to more third-party support. These apps are also not cards but fully interactive apps with all the bells and whistles you would expect.

The new triple-sensor camera is housed in a round protrusion complete with the Hasselblad brand emblazoned on it. It comes with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX590 sensor paired with a 32-megapixel Sony IMX709 sensor and a 48-megapixel Sony IMX581 sensor. This is, of course, complemented by software which is co-developed by  OPPO and Hasselblad.

The Find N3 Flip comes with the Mediatek Dimensity 9200. MediaTek’s latest 4nm processor promises great performance. It’s also got 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of internal storage.

The main display of the Find N3 Flip is a 6/8-inch AMOLED panel with an FHD+ resolution. It’s built to be more power efficient with a polarizer-free design which lowers power consumption by 20%. The crease is also less prominent on the N3 Flip. In the middle of the screen is the 32-megapixel selfie camera.

To top things off, the Find N3 Flip is IPX4-rated meaning that it’s resistant to water spills. It also comes with an updated Flexion Hinge This has zero gap and also allows the crease to be less prominent. The new hinge is designed to bear 25% more weight than the N2.  

All of this is powered by a 4,300mAh battery that supports SuperVOOC charging at 44W. OPPO claims it will give you a 50% charge in just 23 minutes.

That’s the Find N3 Flip. We’ll have more details in our article over on our website at techent.tv.

The Redmi Note 12 5G’s 48-megapixel sensor is complemented by 8-megapixel ultrawide and 2-megapixel macro sensors. It comes with a 13-megapixel on the front. Display-wise it comes with a 6.67-inch AMOLED DotDisplay with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1,200 nits peak brightness and Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The 5G version of the Redmi Note 12 comes with a curved back.

The Redmi Note 12 without 5G comes in a completely flat form factor. It has the same camera setup complementing its 50-megapixel sensor and selfie camera as the Redmi Note 12 5G. Even the display is the same. The major differences here are its processor, the lack of 5G connectivity and the 50-megapixel sensor.

The smartphones are IP53 splash and dust resistance certified. Xiaomi has also opted to keep the 3.5mm combo jack and IR blaster. All versions come with side-mounted fingerprint sensors which are embedded into the power button. They also all come with a 5,000mAh battery with 33W Fast Charging. However, Pro+ ups the ante a little bit with 120W HyperCharge.
