The Phone (2a) is its brand's inaugural budget option, and as such is currently lying in wait for the Pixel 8a on Amazon starting at $439.50. Despite that, it adheres to the same Nothing minimalist ethic as its flagship sibling in traditional Black or Milk (white) colorways - but not for long.
Nothing has announced that it has a "new" Phone (2a) ready to hit the market. It is unlikely to be the Community Edition, however, as it is slated to launch in just 2 days from today (April 27, 2024).
Given that it is portrayed as still having the same pattern of cosmetic ribbon connectors, Glyph lighting and (non-functional) square red accent visible through a plastic rear panel, it might simply have a new colorway instead: one to match the heretofore-exclusive third colorway of the new Ear (a) TWS buds, perhaps.
Unfortunately, not everyone will have the chance to find out in person, as the "New Edition" is a "Designed for India" variant set to be unleashed as a Flipkart Unique product on its impending launch day.
