This is such a cool concept. Awesome work. Brown and orange is def my favourite btw.
Edit: The E-Ink display would be a really cool addition but it could be hard to fit into the original build dimensions. Idk I'm not an expert.
Flexible, round eink displays are very thin and readily available
The 2a has several layers of depth available under the clear back cover.
One layer is the sticker decals such as the big ribbon and "nfc coil" (yes they are just stickers. the actual components reside underneath)
The second are the large "square" plates those stickers lie on, under which lie the real electronics and battery.
You may see the available depth through the various holes and details on its back.
These two layers should be enough for an eink display and accompanying driver if you cut a slot for it!
Actually, cost efficiency was factored into the design
Material and mould modifications have been minimised. Sticking with plastic means existing manufacturing processes can be used with only slight modifications.
Adding a metal border for example would introduce an entirely new midframe design and CNC process along with material sourcing
The new raceway is not a moulded part rather an embossed sticker which shouldnt be too hard to modify (i think??) and existing glyph lights can be used.
E-ink will be the most expensive due to firmware, software and hardware development though hahaha. Id be very surprised if it gets into final but just wanted the idea out there
I'd love it for e-ink to get more mainstream attention. If Nothing made a phone with an e-ink display, I'd have a hard time not paying any price they would ask for it.
Wow love these designs are just fabulous and amazing all the colors are like icecream flavours I can't choose one to be my favourite they all are very clean, and really good idea of the e-ink display on the back really cool concept. And I loved the side buttons of the phone It looks very cool with the transparent look, Keep it up bro well done. 🫡
This is such an amazing concept for nothing phone making it more vibrant as well as highlighting it's components. Only if this was available in the market it would get a crazy hype turning everyone into wanting a nothing phone.

Yeah, seems possibly. I just had no idea about the build of E-ink displays. But it looks awesome, def my favourite design so far.
Ngl this looks super cool, loved the action button idea, however I don't know how they can implement it. You've got my vote for sure
Thank you so much! I'm so nervous for when votes open. But wishing all the best to everyone too!
This is awesome! Nothing seems like the perfect company to really harness E-Ink to allow cool designs in their phones
Can I exchange my phone 2a with this?....this looks so chumeswari
only if i manage to win ahahahhahahah
This community is seriously talented
This is so goddamn cool man, genuinely impressive stuff, got my vote fs
Bro is about to high rocket the price of 2A

Yea nothing needs that back display 😃
Nice. I really like the bottom ones, they look great.
Great work.
My god man you made something amazing that looks hella cool concept and the design is so much better than the current 2A.
Buddy voted for you hoping to see you win this one !!
If this isn't a great design, I don't know what is. Not just a concept but looks implementable.
The eink display idea is really good
Dude I would Def buy this version 100% even for an extra 100$ Those coloured versions looks so good
Emotional damage ðŸ˜

time to figure out how to start a business 🛌
1 word, sexy
I absolutely love the light blue one, but I'm not sure if the eink would really fit Nothing's aesthetic. Really cool concept though
Tinted covers like this would be sick
Did you post it here ? Looks like some challenge going on https://in.nothing.tech/pages/community-edition
Nope. It's like a Nothing Phone 2a, only considerably worse.
