Jerryrigeverything has done a couple of videos on these phones, I'd not even heard of them before.

They seem pretty good, I'm not a big gamer but the very large battery is appealing plus the form factor looks pretty good and the price is reasonable compared to top end Apple and Android phones.

Any downsides coming from a series of Samsungs? Or opinions in general?

I was seriously considering one, enough that I paid the early access fee BUT two things that stopped me;

Camera reviews poorly, very poorly in comparison to other phones at a similar price point
Only supported for a single Andriod major version update

Still debating with myself or I may just wait for Nothing 3 given the good experience I had wth the Nothing 1

I guess that's the sacrifice for not have the lenses bulging out of the case. Assuming they're no worse than my S20 I wouldn't be too worried at that. Lack of updates after 2 years would be a bit of a worry though, seems a bit mean.

I've bitten the bullet and ordered one.

My S20 has a few issues developing, a charging issue, diminishing battery life and screen burn being the major ones.

And because I'm a tart I've gone for the one with real gold and silver in it rofl although the sapphire glass front and back, deeper scratches at level 9, really does appeal in a functional way.

It arrived yesterday.

Just getting to grips with it at the moment but no regrets so far.

Seems like it'll be unlikely I'll bump into anyone with the same phone.
