Nothing OS 2.5.5 rolling out to the Nothing Phone 2 with ChatGPT integration and Ultra XDR

Unfortunately, the company did not immediately mention what Ultra XDR actually is.

  • Nothing is rolling out Nothing OS 2.5.5 to the Nothing Phone 2.
  • This update brings ChatGPT integration, TrueLens Engine with Ultra XDR, many new widgets, and several bug fixes.

Nothing is fresh off its launch event for the new Nothing Ear (2024) and the Nothing Ear a, wherein they also announced a deeper ChatGPT integration within Nothing OS. This integration is rolling out through the Nothing OS 2.5.5 update, arriving first to the Nothing Phone 2, while it will roll out to the Phone 1 and the Phone 2a later this month.

While ChatGPT integration is the highlight of the Nothing OS 2.5.5, the update changelog for the Phone 2 is quite lengthy (h/t 1NormalUsername). The Nothing Phone 2 is also getting the “TrueLens Engine” with “Ultra XDR,” though unfortunately, Nothing did not elaborate on these marketing terms. If we can speculate, this could allow capturing photos with high dynamic range in the Ultra HDR format (or a similar HDR-focused format), essentially as a jpg file with an extra HDR gain map file.
