Carl Pie’s Nothing is back with another affordable mid-range smartphone, dubbed, the Phone 2a. The company’s newest model is a toned-down version of the Nothing Phone 2.
In terms of optics, the Phone 2a has a similar setup on the back featuring two 50MP cameras. The setup features the Samsung ISOCELL GN9 (S5KGN9) main sensor instead of the Sony IMX615 on the premium Phone 2. The daylight performance is satisfactory, and ultra-wide-angle shots are decent, the same can be said for low-light photos, but things are not great with portraits.
If you want to enhance the camera performance on your Nothing Phone 2a, you can go with the Google Camera app (aka GCam mod port). Here you can download Google Camera for Nothing Phone 2a.
On the software side, the Phone 2a comes with the familiar stock camera app. It supports all essential features including Expert mode, Auto Night mode, Action mode, Motion Photo support, and more.
The newest version of Google Camera port is compatible with the Phone 2a, thanks to developers for porting the app. It support features like the beloved Astrophotography mode, Night Sight, HDR Enhanced, RAW support, Google Lens, and more. Now let’s take a look at how you can download and install Google Camera on Nothing Phone 2a.
