Here’s why Nothing is previewing Android 15 to its budget phone before its flagship
- Nothing prioritized the Phone 2a for its Nothing OS 3.0 Beta Program because it is one of its newest best-sellers.
- Nothing also received the optimized update from MediaTek for the 2a’s processor before it could receive it from Qualcomm for the Phone 2’s processor.
- The final stable release of Nothing OS 3.0 will be rolled out to the Phone 2 and Phone 2a simultaneously.
Android 15 is coming, and OEMs have begun onboarding users to their beta programs for the upcoming platform update. Nothing announced its Nothing OS 3.0 Open Beta program, but curiously, the company is giving its budget device, the Phone 2a, first dibs on the new update instead of its flagship, the Phone 2. Now, the company has shared more details on why it had to give its flagship the snub.
Nothing explains that since it is a young company with a relatively smaller team than established brands working on its software. To maintain quality and pace of development, it has to stagger updates across devices, which allows it to gather feedback, make adjustments, and roll out fixes for devices in its portfolio.
