The device emerges from Nothing's community project (Nothing)

The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition is brand's first co-created product, "born from the imagination" of its community members. The smartphone features green-tinted phosphorescent material finishes, which enable the elements of the phone's back emit a soft glow in the dark. Nothing says that the design element could allow users to locate their phone in the dark.

Additionally, the Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition comes equipped with six wallpapers that feature cables, pipes, microchips, and components. The packaging features a green box that depicts a 3D interpretation of the phone glowing in the dark.

The community project kicked off in April 2024 with Hardware Design stage, followed by Wallpaper Design stage in May, Packaging Design stage in June, and Marketing Campaign in July. The project received over 900 submissions from 47 countries.
