Misleading title.

I like the design but definitely the lights still seem like huge gimmick. I don’t see the value of getting this over other midrange options like the pixel 7a

There’s no review of the phone, title is misleading.

I was bummed about this episode of Dope Tech. He had the professional video tech which wasn’t a consumer product, then the sponsored segment, and finally the Nothing phone 2 - which hasn’t changed all that much.

Insanely clickbait title too, when the NP2 is barely 1/4th of the video and only a “design reveal”.

Honestly this is why I could never get into him. I feel like he also tends towards a lot of anti consumer takes for a product reviewer.

I feel like he never really reviews products and just read the spec sheet. There are much better tech reviews and they’re perfectly capable of producing flashy visuals as well so there’s no real point to him.

sponsor block skipped ⅔ of the video and thought it was a bug

The nothing phone never got me really excited

The concept was neat but not great.

Framework laptop remains my new hope for the future of laptops tho.

Phoneblocks/Project Ara wanted to do that with phones but it wasn’t actually viable at the time.

Ara was viable technically, but isnt profitable enough for major companies to be interested.

I’m with you. Framework repairable/upgradeable laptops are super exciting. For a while, I thought they had a phone in development. Is that still a thing?
