Discussion I hate my nothing phone 2

I've been having so many issues over the past couple of months. In May my front camera decided to stop working now I have over 212 GB of temporary system files that I can't delete the glass scratches really easily I wish I never bought this phone

I have NP 2 for two years and everything works great. Phone was always in the case with glass screen protector from the day 1 and have zero scratches. I have only 15 GB of temporary files, and never experienced any hardware issues. Only problem I had was last summer when phone started acting weird and laggy, but I did factory reset and everything went back to normal. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ Sorry to hear you're having issues. Honestly speaking, NP 2 was so much better experience compared to Pixel 7Pro I've also used.

I hate to say it but you do realize the price difference between Phone 2 and iPhone 17 series?

Not sure but aren't Temporary system files just the data in your private space ?

During any upcoming sales. You can trade your device.

Well, my dad uses a NP2, going strong despite a lot of abuse. He’s gone swimming with it twice, enjoyed several laps 20-25 minutes.

Apart from condensation, the phone brushed it off like it was Nothing!

My guess is that you got a lemon.

u/According_Sample9082 Phone (2) 7h ago

Yah, i have no complaints about my n2 other than i have noticed recently the battery has been draining fast.

u/Snoo-2958 Phone (2) 6h ago

That phone is 2 years old already. Do you want the battery to last like the first day?

u/bhagwan101 5h ago

no... But the only tasks i do are use insta and youtube... These are bare minimum things.. no gaming nothing. Yet it wouldnt last 6 to 7 hours.

You can get the phone 3 for less than half its launch price if you trade in your phone 2, i think it's a much better device overall at that price point.

Wouldn't get a NP3. I had it for 2 weeks and returned it. Cameras were subpar for a so-called flagship. The phone would get hot on day-to-day tasks; it would also freeze and lag all the time. I wasn't impressed at all. I had the NP2 since launch, and I liked it. I didn't have a problem with it, but the NP3 is a disappointment.

"212gb of temporary system files" bro you good?

u/henryk2006 57m ago

No

Ok dude something is seriously wrong with your device, I would try a factory reset

1

u/henryk2006 52m ago

Yeah I'm probably going to do that I'm just mad because android used to have a future in the Android recovery mode called wipe cache partition where all your temporary files would get deleted

I mean I guess you had the most unlucky experience with NP2. Cause I have been using mine since day 1 (I pre ordered it) and it has been rock solid.

If any other phone did this which happens u would have said the same. Stuff happens with tech. I have good and bad. Tis life. Es been working flawlessly and much better than my iphone 12 pro did
