Key strengths
The 50 MP periscope camera gives 3.5x optical zoom with optical stabilisation and autofocus, and the 50 MP main camera is stabilised too.
The Glyph Bar on the back, made of 63 mini-LEDs, shows what is happening on the phone with light patterns and sounds, so it can stay screen-down.
The 6.78-inch 1224 x 2720 screen has a claimed 4500-nit peak, 120 Hz adaptive refresh and 2160 Hz PWM.
Nothing promises 3 years of Android updates and 6 years of security patches, counted from when the phone first went on sale.
Before you buy
At 205 g and 77.5 mm wide it is a large phone for one-handed use.
No charger comes in the box (only a USB-C cable), so the 50 W speed needs a compatible adapter bought separately, and wireless charging is not listed.
The UK model has no eSIM, water and dust protection is rated IP64, and Nothing does not publish the ultra-wide camera's resolution.
