Nothing wants you to know everything about the Phone (2a). You probably already do, to be honest, because the drip-feeding of the company's day-by-day teasing in the run-up to its launch event, well, it left nothing to the imagination. So we knew exactly what we were going to get: an affordable, quirky-designed mid-range Android handset. The kind of handset likely destined for T3's best affordable phones list.
What we didn't get to know in advance, of course, was just how successful Nothing's attempt at winning the mid-range section of the Android market would be. But I've had very high hopes, as someone who loved (and continues to love) the flagship Phone (2). I've held back on reviewing the Phone (2a) until beyond the official embargo was lifted, in part to not to rush the whole process and get to know the handset all the better.
