  • Nothing began rolling out the stable version of Nothing OS 2.5 to the Phone 2 last week.
  • Nothing OS 2.5 is now rolling out in beta for the Phone 1.
  • The update brings more customization, additional gesture controls, new widgets, and a few improvements.

Last Friday, Nothing announced it was bringing the stable version of Nothing OS 2.5 to the Phone 2. The company also said there would be an open beta released for the Phone 1 before the end of the year, but didn’t specify the release date. But it appears that the time is now, as the company has officially announced the open beta.

Only days after releasing the stable version of Nothing OS 2.5 — based on Android 14 — for the Phone 2, Nothing announced on X (formerly Twitter) that it is releasing OS 2.5 in open beta for the Phone 1 today. The social post in question is a clever holiday-themed message with wrapping paper-like images that reveal the announcement when clicked on.
