The launch of the Nothing Phone 3, both in India and worldwide, is just weeks away, prompting the company to ramp up anticipation by teasing various features of its flagship device. Nothing has announced that the Phone 3 will belong to the premium smartphone category and has also disclosed information regarding the chipset that will power this model, along with additional expected attributes, including the decision to discontinue the Glyph interface LED lights.
Scheduled to be the fourth smartphone release of 2025, the Phone 3 follows the introduction of the Phone 3a series and the CMF Phone 2 Pro. Although the Phone 3 has been a topic of discussion since last year, the company opted not to release it previously. Now, the time has come for a significant announcement, and in preparation, here is a comprehensive overview of the Phone 3 launch, its features, and anticipated pricing.
The Nothing Phone 3 will be officially revealed on July 1 in London during a special event, where the company is also expected to unveil its first set of over-the-ear headphones. Additionally, an India-specific briefing is planned for the same day to divulge pricing and other information regarding the Phone 3. Recently, notable revelations about the Phone 3 have surfaced, particularly concerning the new Glyph matrix that will replace the previous Glyph interface. This change will likely introduce a dot matrix panel designed to illuminate notifications on the phone's rear, as indicated in the accompanying teaser.
Moreover, Nothing has confirmed that the Phone 3 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, rather than the previously speculated 8 Elite. Given the early hints suggesting a flagship device, many anticipated a bold move from Nothing, yet it appears the company has other strategies in mind. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 has recently been seen in the iQOO Neo 10, which is priced under Rs 40,000, and is confirmed to also feature in the Poco F7 5G model. However, with the Phone 3 expected to be priced around Rs 65,000, Nothing will need to offer compelling incentives for consumers to consider this new device.
A recent leaked image of the Phone 3 has unveiled some intriguing aspects of the smartphone, revealing a new camera arrangement on the rear featuring three sensors and a sizable module for the telephoto lens. Additionally, the Phone 3 is anticipated to house a set of three 50MP cameras, with leaks supporting these claims.
There is significant enthusiasm surrounding the Nothing Phone 3, and the brand has established high expectations with its design, projected pricing, and more. We eagerly look forward to witnessing how the complete product will turn out.
