Nothing ‘betting on the future’ by calling on its community to redesign Nothing Phone 2a

Nothing phones are known for their distinctive style, but a new collaboration project could take this idea into new and previously uncharted territory. Nothing has called upon its community of fans and customers to design an alternate version of its recent Nothing Phone 2a. The project will eventually lead to one final design to be manufactured and sold to the public.

Fans will have the chance to shape the phone's color, materials, wallpapers, packaging, and even its marketing campaign. The Community Edition Project was announced on 20 March on the Nothing website, posted to X, and, in true Nothing fashion, broadcast the project in an accompanying YouTube video.

The project is divided into four design elements: hardware, wallpapers, packaging, and marketing, with four contests being held over successive months, starting March 26. A winning design will be selected in each category to be used for the final version of the Nothing Phone 2a Community Edition.
