Nothing phone is such a fucking joke there are 0 replacement parts available. I broke my camera a few weeks after I got my nothing phone 2 and your only option is to ship the phone to the UK. The advertise as consumer friendly but that couldn’t be further from the truth.
They’re consumer friendly…. They’re all smiles when you buy the phone….
features with a high degree of customizability - you can swap out the back cover, and also attach things like a lanyard.
Ooooh, a lanyard strap… That’s the sort of right to repair we’ve all been after.
/s
It’s so silly. The back is removable with just a couple of standard screws. But the battery isn’t replaceable.
I don’t get it, what’s the point in having removable back, screws, screwdrivers if you cannot remove and replace the parts.
So you can change the colour of your phone.
This is exactly what I was thinking.
I’ve been planning on getting a fairphone next, and didn’t know they had a competitor, and then after watching the review realized they didn’t have a competitor.
goes to show how it only needs to look rugged and repairable
we should be asking for nvme at this point
SD card
Yes
3.5mm jack
No, it’s 2024
I’m not buying it
Ok 👍
As a person who’s been using Bluetooth headphones almost exclusively for the last 5 years, 99% of them fucking suck regardless of the price range
I’ve had a pretty good experience with them, personally, but mine are a relatively expensive pair
But for wired headphones, usb-c headphones seem to be the modern de facto standard
I know this is true, but it’s dumb as hell. The difference in thickness between a usb-c port and headphone jack is millimeters, and a good pair of wired headphones is still a good pair decades later. No need to upgrade the connector unless you’re making money off selling usb-c headphones.
It’s not like it hurts bluetooth users to have a headphone jack they won’t use.
How does it being 2024 justify not having a headphone jack. Most other phones competing with the phone 1 do have a headphone jack fyi.
Because smart people started switching to Bluetooth back in the mid 2000-s. Because wires suck big time. It’s 2024 now, there’s absolutely no reason to use wired headphones.
I was kinda hoping a modular phone would have a headphone jack module of some sort.
Non-removable battery and lanyard strap is enough I guess…
If people are buying this instead of other repair-oriented brands like Fairphone, then they’re not concerned about repairability but price.
Fairphone isn’t available in many parts of the world. CMF’s sales are boosted a lot by it’s presence in India where Fairphone is not an option.
They could be concerned about both.
☹️ no nfc
What is nfc?
Near field communication - it’s an antenna that sits inside the back case and let’s your phone interact with payment terminals and the like that support it.
You can add your tap and pay card to your phone and tap your phone instead.
… you could just put your card on the back of the phone too
I don’t understand the point of this phone. Why are idiots flocking to it?
