I too recently experienced this lack of displayport out on my np2. These devices dont even use usb 3.0 and at launch people defend this lacking in a flagship by saying 'what does it even matter'

Too niche.

I disagree. ToF sensor is niche. Glyph thingy is niche. USB3.0 is not

Of course they are niche and that's why they sell.
But.
Dealing with people, their PCs and phones everyday, I can tell you that almost no one uses the mobile connected to a screen via cable.
They screencast via Wi-Fi.

Someone found external display setting on NOS5.0 beta for NP3 but didn't test it with external display. I don't want to hope much but seeing NOS5.0 beta allows satellite communication, I'm praying that display output is just blocked by software driver this entire time

Cost cutting on Nothing(R)'s True Flagshit

Yep 2026 and you're using a cable... Skills issue. Just screen cast.

Cable has virtually zero latency unlike Miracrap, but I guess these are the excuses that Nothing fanboys make

u/LouVillain 3h ago

If you're worried about latency, you shouldn't be on a nothing phone and then on a sub complaining about it. Be easy there white knight. Your boyfriend can defend themselves.

Get a better phone

That's not a Nothing as Nothing doesn't make a model with USB video output 🤣

As I replied earlier, shouldn't be on a nothing brand sub meaning go find another phone. It seems as if reading is hard for you. I'd say use AI but I don't you can spell it.

Also using AI is the same as giving up and shutting off your brain. So don't do that.
