London-based consumer brand Nothing has announced the rollout of Open Beta 2 for Nothing OS 2.5 powered by Android 14. Nothing is continuing the process of Beta testing on Phone (2) which provides early access to the company’s newest improvements including new features for the Glyph interface and refinements resulting from Open Beta 1. For an exclusive deep dive on Nothing OS 2.5 (coming later this year) and a special 3rd-anniversary address from Carl Pei, the company has shared its latest Nothing Community Update video on YouTube.

Users who’ve already enrolled in the Beta will be able to update via Settings > System > System Update. For those who want to sign up can head to nothing.community website. The company has also confirmed that an update on the full Android 14 rollout to Phone (1) and Phone (2) devices will be rolled out at a later date.
