In the 00s I had stickers blinking whenever there’s some cell data traffic going through. I’m happy that backlights saw their second coming. When I do masturbate to them, my federal agent looks at me from the main 4k camera and not the lazy frontal one.

yep! they call them glyphs.
“Under the transparent pillowed glass is Nothing’s Glyph lighting array. Unfairly dismissed as a gimmick around the time of the Nothing Phone 1’s launch, the Glyph lights do serve a purpose, and for the Nothing Phone 2, even more features have been added. By splitting the light bars into different sections, Nothing has been able to expand the functionality. For example, one of the Glyph bars acts as a visual timer, not only for the timer feature on your phone but also with apps like Uber to show the estimated arrival of your ride.”
Kind of a neat idea tbh
I have a nothing phone. The glyphs were a neat gimmick the first few weeks I had the thing, but now I only use them as a softer flashlight. They just don’t really add much value to the thing.
Still like the thing very much though, overall.
At least some unique gimmick in the time when all smartphones are just screens with no individuality.
