It was already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/nothing_phone_2a_plus_is_now_available_in_the_uk-news-63978.php\">available in the UK<\/a> and since then it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/nothing_phone_2a_plus_india_price_sale_date-news-64013.php\">launched in India<\/a> too. Let\u2019s have a look at how the poll went.<\/p>\n<p>The Plus model is \u00a350 more for a 12\/256GB unit in the UK and \u20b92,000 more in India for an 8\/256GB unit. And that\u2019s the difference if you look at MSRP, the regular 2a phone has been around for a while and gets discounted often enough, which makes the price gap even larger.<\/p>\n<p>And so, unsurprisingly, many think that the new phone is too expensive for what it offers. Nothing switched to a different chipset to offer higher performance, but the chip will have to prove itself in reviews. The company also upgraded the selfie camera to a 50MP unit capable of 4K video capture. This is another unknown \u2013 reviews can really swing the opinions about this phone around.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/08\/weekly-poll-results-nothing-phone-2a-plus\/inline\/gsmarena_001.png\" alt=\"Weekly poll results: the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus struggles to justify its higher price\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Nothing is a young company and is still building out its distribution network. This means that some regions are left out \u2013 even a major market like the US only gets a \u201cbeta\u201d program with spotty carrier support. That\u2019s not a huge issue yet, but it will become a pressing matter the longer that Nothing ignores it.<\/p>\n<p>For the majority of voters in the poll, the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus isn\u2019t the best mid-ranger that they can spend their money on \u2013 even the regular Nothing Phone (2a) is a better deal, plus all the brands that compete in this segment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/weekly_poll_results_the_nothing_phone_2a_plus_struggles_to_justify_its_higher_price-news-64049.php\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Last week we asked your opinion on the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus.
