The highly anticipated launch of the Nothing Phone (2) is just around the corner, and recent renders have unveiled a sleek new curved design for the device. In a conversation with Mladen M. Hoyss, Software Creative Director at Nothing, XDA developers obtained insights into the forthcoming Nothing OS 2.0, which is set to accompany the phone.

The Evolution of Nothing OS

The development of Nothing’s operating systems has been an intriguing journey. Initially, with Nothing OS 1.0, a small team and external contractors crafted an OS that closely resembled stock Android, with a few distinctive features.

Following the release of the Phone (1), the team expanded to nearly 100 individuals, resulting in the development of Nothing OS 1.5, which brought enhanced features and improvements. Now, Hoyss reveals that Nothing is entering a new phase with their very own Android-based system called “Nothing OS.”

Intentionality and Productivity

Nothing aims to infuse intentionality into their computing devices and operating system. Their objective is to create a sense of productivity and enjoyment for users during device usage. The goal is to establish a distinctive Nothing ecosystem that seamlessly integrates with the hardware, harnessing the finest aspects of Android and making them more accessible and efficient for users.

With Nothing OS 2.0, users can anticipate a more refined and optimized experience that aligns with Nothing’s vision of intentional and productive device usage. As the launch of the Nothing Phone (2) approaches, expectations are high for the innovative combination of hardware and software that Nothing is poised to deliver.
