The Nothing Phone (2a)‘s stylish design and solid performance have earned it a thumbs-up from reviewers. Now, Nothing is taking things even further with its “Community Edition Project,” offering a unique chance for enthusiasts to shape a brand-new version of the phone.
“Co-creation means creating something together,” explains Nothing CEO Carl Pei. “For the first time, we’re inviting our community to create a new variant of the Phone 2a with us. That includes everything from the design to the wallpapers, packaging, and even the marketing.”
This isn’t just lip service. Anyone, regardless of experience, can submit ideas for this special edition Phone 2a. Starting March 26th, you can enter your hardware design for the chance to collaborate with Nothing’s London team and bring your vision to life. The project unfolds in stages:
- Stage 1: Submit a new design for the Phone (2a)
- Stage 2: Submit a wallpaper collection perfectly complementing the winning hardware design, and yours could be pre-installed on the Community Edition.
- Stage 3: Flex your packaging design skills, crafting retail packaging worthy of the unique phone.
- Stage 4: Craft a compelling marketing campaign to launch the Phone 2a Community Edition to the world.
While the specs of the Community Edition Phone 2a remain the same, Nothing is giving free rein to reimagine its look. A preview of a possible community-designed variant highlights just how different and visually striking this special edition could be.
The chance to design a commercially released phone is a rare opportunity. If you’re brimming with creative ideas, submissions for the Phone 2a Community Edition open on Nothing’s website on March 26th. This isn’t just about designing a product – it’s about shaping a phone that reflects the passion and vision of its community.
