Nothing Phone(2) to feature this Qualcomm silicon

London-based emerging consumer electronics player Nothing Inc earlier in the month announced to launch the second-generation Phone series this summer.

Now, the company’s CEO and founder Carl Pei has revealed that Nothing Phone(2) will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which was seen in most of the premium smartphones launched in the second half of 2022.

Yes, Snapdraong 8+ Gen 1 is one generation old, but is said to be a reliable chipset and will be a good upgrade over the Snapdragon 778G+ octa-core seen on Phone(1).
