Nothing Phone (2a) Plus
PC Pro
|November 2024
A distinctive phone for those who want great battery life and a stunning screen without paying a fortune
Nothing can be confusing. This British phone maker not only loves to throw brackets into its names, which we will ignore for the sake of clarity, but extra letters, too: the £329 Phone 2a (see issue 356, p73) is a cutdown version of the £519 Phone 2 (see issue 349, p72), but the new Phone 2a Plus doesn’t increase its screen size as the name suggests – it instead brings a slight uplift in performance and camera hardware.
For £70 more, you’ll benefit from a beefier Dimensity 7350 Pro chip, which delivers a modest boost compared to the Dimensity 7200 Pro powering the standard Phone 2a. And I mean modest: it proved 3.5% faster in CPU tests such as Geekbench, 6% quicker in AI benchmarks and 12% faster in GPU tests.
Challenging 3D titles such as Zenless Zone Zero still default to “low” settings at 30fps and deliver consistent performance at that level. If you want to dial things up to “high” at 60fps, though, the 7350 Pro is happy in bursts; I only noticed dropped frames and heat build-up after about 20 minutes of play time. यह कहानी PC Pro के November 2024 संस्करण से ली गई है।
