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.

Leave a comment

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

The Vivo X100 series is available for pre-orders online starting on 4 January 2024. Physical pre-orders will start on 6 January 2024. During the pre-order period, purchases of the X100 will come with complimentary 180-day screen protection valued at RM300 and vivo TWS air earbuds free.

What sets these devices apart is their charging prowess. The Reno 11 supports 67W charging, ensuring a quick power-up, while the Pro model accelerates the charging game with an 80W charging speed. A 19-minute charge from 0 to 50% for the Reno 11 promises minimal disruptions to your day.

Cameras the Carry on the Reno Ethos

The camera system is undoubtedly a star feature of the Reno 11 series. Both models present users with a versatile and powerful camera setup. The 50-megapixel main camera is accompanied by a 32-megapixel portrait lens, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 32-megapixel selfie shooter.

images circle img2 pc 1 80.jpg

The Pro model takes it a step further by incorporating the higher-end Sony LYT-700 sensor that should elevate the camera performance to new heights. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) across both models ensures that shaky hands don’t compromise the quality of your photos and videos. Whether you’re capturing landscapes, portraits, or selfies, the Reno 11 series promises a photography experience that resonates with both enthusiasts and casual users.

Pricing & Availability

The standard Reno 11 is priced at CNY2,499 (~RM1,640). The Pro model commands a starting price of CNY3,499 (~RM2,295).
