Pakistan's smartphone buyers have increasingly been asking us at StoriesKettle about the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB, and after extensive testing in Karachi's heat, Lahore's dust, and Islamabad's cooler climate, we have a comprehensive verdict ready.
Display
The 6.7" display on the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB was one of the first things our StoriesKettle team noticed during testing. It delivers vibrant, punchy colors that make Pakistani dramas, YouTube shorts, and Instagram reels look fantastic. We tested outdoor visibility under Karachi's intense summer sun and were genuinely impressed — the screen remained readable at full brightness without squinting. Whether you are video-calling family or binge-watching content during a power outage, this display handles it well.
Camera Performance
According to StoriesKettle's camera evaluation, the 50MP rear camera on the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB is a genuine highlight. We ran it through the classic Pakistani test scenarios: food photography at a dhaba, group selfies at an outdoor gathering, and night shots in dimly lit streets. The results confirmed that this camera punches above its price class. Low-light shots retain detail without excessive noise — something budget phones almost always struggle with.
Performance & Storage
StoriesKettle's technical analysis of the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB confirms that the Dimensity 7200 Pro with 6GB RAM delivers reliable everyday performance well beyond what the price suggests. We are particularly impressed by how the phone maintains speed after prolonged use — a common issue with budget and mid-range phones where the OS slows down after 6-8 months. The 64GB of storage ensures users can install all the apps they need without constant cleanup.
Battery Life
In StoriesKettle's assessment, the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB's 5000mAh power cell is one of its most competitive features. We tested battery drain specifically during video streaming — a popular activity in Pakistan — and found the phone lasted significantly longer than several more expensive competitors in the same test. The battery also handles heat well; even after a two-hour session of GPS navigation during Karachi summer, battery health remained stable without the phone becoming uncomfortably warm.
StoriesKettle Verdict & Price in Pakistan
StoriesKettle's final verdict on the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB: at PKR 68,944 ($248), this is a well-considered mid-range smartphone that earns our recommendation for Pakistani buyers. Our expert score of 49/100 reflects a device that delivers genuine value without major compromises. It is PTA-approvable for full local network support, and it is available through official channels including Daraz and authorized brand stores across Pakistan. If your budget allows, the Nothing Phone 2a 64GB is a smart choice.
