The launch date for the Nothing Phone 2a Plus has been announced, and the company is set to introduce a new addition to its lineup for consumers in India and beyond. The Phone 2a was released just a few months ago, so it's intriguing to see the rationale behind introducing a Phone 2a Plus model so soon.
Historically, models with the "Plus" designation feature a larger display, but teasers suggest that the Phone 2a Plus will emphasize performance and other enhancements. We’ll learn more about the phone later today during the online launch event.

Expected Features and Price of the Nothing Phone 2a Plus in India
Leaked information about the Nothing Phone 2a Plus suggests several upgrades, primarily concerning the chipset, front camera, and charging capabilities. The Phone 2a Plus is expected to maintain the same 6.7-inch screen size as the Phone 2a model.
The new Phone 2a Plus will feature the MediaTek Dimensity 7350 SoC, which has been officially confirmed. Additionally, leaks indicate that the front camera will be upgraded to a 50MP sensor, while the rear camera setup is likely to remain unchanged.
The Nothing Phone 2a Plus will also feature the same 5,000mAh battery as its predecessor, but it will now support faster 50W charging. Unlike the CMF Phone 1, we anticipate that the Glyph interface and LEDs will return, adding their distinctive design element to the new model.
There is no indication from the brand or leaks that the Nothing Phone 2a Plus will feature a larger screen, suggesting that it will have the same display size and design as its predecessor.
Given these upgrades, the Nothing Phone 2a Plus is expected to be priced around Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000 higher than the Phone 2a, potentially reaching close to Rs 25,000 when it launches in the market.
