New Features Coming in Nothing OS 2.6

A few days back Nothing released Nothing OS 2.6 update for its smartphones such as Nothing Phone (2), Phone (2a), and CMF Phone 1. This update brings many new features to the devices, but currently, these features are exclusive to CMF Phone 1.

New features of Nothing OS 2.6:

Nothing OS 2.6 new features

Smart Charging Mode: It is designed to help prolong the life of a battery—will pace the charge overnight to ensure that the phone charges more slowly, avoiding pressure on the battery. It allows users to set charging limits, like stopping at 70% or 80%, to really extend battery life.

AI Vivid Mode in Camera: Introduce an AI vivid mode which will revolutionize photo colors and brightness. The mode recognizes scenes and objects automatically and adjusts the camera setting to pop the colors in your photos more vividly.

Natural Mode in Camera: Together with the Vivid Mode, a Natural Mode will ensure that photos capture true hues and authenticity of the moment. This mode roughly emulates what the eye would see to provide a more natural look without over-saturating colors.

Expandable Notification and Popup View: These days, notifications are getting smarter. Now, users can swipe down to bring up the new coming notification in a popup view. This becomes very handy for multitasking because an app can be allowed to run in a small window while you navigate various other tasks.

Intelligent Anti-Disconnect for Calls: As aimed at gamers, this feature automatically hangs up an incoming call after 5 to 10 seconds if it is not answered. This helps players not be disturbed in the mostengaging moments of a game and not lose concentration on playing.

These features might come to all Nothing Phones in the next updates. But it’s not confirmed that every feature will come. As of now, Nothing Phone (2) and Phone (2a) have received the Nothing OS 2.6 update, but Phone (1) hasn’t.

One of the most notable changes in this update is the introduction of the Nothing Gallery app as the default photo viewer in the camera app. Users now get the option to choose between Nothing Gallery and Google Photos, but the company recommends using its own gallery for faster previews and smoother performance. This move highlights Nothing’s efforts to strengthen its in-house ecosystem.

The update also adds new features to widgets. Along with the Photo widget, users can now share the Pedometer widget (step counter) and the Screen Time widget with others. The update further enhances interaction by introducing a set of new nine stickers that can be used to react when sharing widgets, giving users more expressive options.

In terms of the camera, Nothing claims to have improved stability and performance. The camera app version has been upgraded, and users may notice slight differences in colors and sharpness, particularly in ultra-wide shots. These refinements are aimed at delivering a more reliable photography experience on the Phone (2a).

The update also addresses several system issues and optimizations. Stability for the pop-up view feature has been improved, and a bug that prevented PDF files from opening in cloned apps like WhatsApp and Telegram has been fixed. The Voice over NR (VoNR) icon has been redesigned for better clarity in the status bar. In addition, battery usage has been optimized when connecting smartwatches, especially with the CMF Watch 2 Pro.

Other improvements include fixes for font display issues in apps such as Instagram and Reddit when using the Inter font, along with general system performance and stability enhancements.

Overall, the Nothing OS 3.2 September Update brings useful new features, smoother performance, and important fixes. For Nothing Phone (2a) users, installing this update is highly recommended to get the best experience on their device.

Nothing Essential Space vs OnePlus Mind Space: Full AI Feature Comparison

Published

Nothing Essential Space vs OnePlus Mind Space

I tested Nothing’s Essential Space on the Nothing Phone (3) and OnePlus Mind Space on the OnePlus 11. Both look similar on the surface, but the way they work feels very different. Let’s break it down.

Nothing Essential Space has a dedicated Essential Key button. Just double press, and the app opens instantly. From there, you can create summaries, reminders, or even voice notes. Everything is simple and fast.

OnePlus Mind Space works with a three-finger swipe gesture. It opens smoothly and also creates summaries and reminders, but you need to do more manual steps compared to Nothing.

The big win for Essential Space is that it syncs directly with Google Calendar. Add a reminder once, and it’s already there. You can even record voice notes or use the camera app to analyze photos and auto-generate descriptions.

Mind Space, on the other hand, shines with app-wise sorting. For example, it can organize summaries by WhatsApp, Chrome, or Twitter, which is quite useful. But adding reminders is manual, and sharing options are limited.

Nothing also adds cool exclusive features like Flip-to-Record, where you just flip the phone, hold the key, and it records with Glyph animations. Later, the AI auto-summarizes your entire meeting or talk into English text. Super handy!

Sharing is also easier on Nothing. You can export your notes as an image, PDF, or Markdown and send them anywhere. On OnePlus, you only get the delete option, which feels basic.

Overall, Nothing Essential Space feels more polished and feature-rich, while OnePlus Mind Space is still catching up. The app-wise sorting on OnePlus is neat, but Nothing’s extra features make it the better option for now.
