Nothing Phone (1) Nothing OS 2.0 update

• This is great news for Nothing Phone (1) users who feared the most-anticipated update wouldn’t arrive to the 1st gen smartphone from the tech startup.
• This also serves as a good indication to suggest that the brand is indeed committed to offering software support to its older phones.
• While the company hasn’t revealed any visual changes that will be coming officially, there will be some aesthetic changes as well.
• Mladen M. Hoyss, Software Creative Director at Nothing, talking to XDA-Developers, said that the company wants to “start almost from scratch” in terms of looks since it has the “opportunity” and “momentum” to do so. 
• Hoyss says the key concept behind Nothing OS 2.0 is “functional aesthetics”, which means taking a lot of data and visualising it in a way that makes it easy to digest for users.
• The Nothing OS 2.0 will still have Android-sweetness, probably the Material You design language and others. 
•  The executive says the ‘home screen’ will be personal to you and the information that interests you instead of just icons.
