Also note that in some countries there is a free upgrade to the larger memory model (you get a 16/512GB phone for the price of a 12/256GB one), but not all.
We have a hands-on with the Nothing Phone (3) and are also working on a full review, so expect a detailed report soon.

Nvidia will soon resume sales of its AI chips in China
As we mentioned back in April, the U.S. might have shot itself in the foot by blocking Nvidia from selling its GPU chips, which are used as AI accelerators in China. This part of the story is easy to understand since it is well known that the U.S. seeks to prevent China from obtaining advanced chips amid concerns that they will be used to improve the country's military. But this ban resulted in Huawei receiving more orders inside China for its Ascend series of AI accelerators. Many of these sales would have gone to Nvidia except for the fact that the U.S. company, as noted, is banned from selling its GPUs in China. But in a statement released last night, Nvidia, the world's most valuable publicly traded company, says that it is filing applications with the U.S. government to resume shipping its H20 chips to China. The company expects to receive the licenses soon. The H20 chips that Nvidia hopes to sell in China are the most capable it can sell in the country. That is because of laws enacted by both President Donald Trump during his first term, and President Joe Biden. These chips are not as powerful as Nvidia's GPUs sold outside China. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is currently in Beijing and set to speak during an event being held in the city tomorrow. The company released a statement that says, "The U.S. government has assured Nvidia that licenses will be granted, and Nvidia hopes to start deliveries soon." Huang has said that Nvidia could lose its position as a global AI leader if it remains unable to sell its chips in China. A report published today says that Chinese companies are rushing to place orders for Nvidia's GPU. These orders will have to be sent to the U.S. government for approval. Among Chinese firms reportedly getting ready to submit orders are TikTok parent ByteDance and Chinese conglomerate Tencent. For the fiscal year ended January 26th, 2025, Nvidia took in $17 billion in revenue from China, equivalent to 13% of the company's global sales. Chinese tech companies still favor Nvidia's computing platform, known as CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). CUDA allows developers to take advantage of the parallel processing used by Nvidia's GPUs. This type of processing allows multiple tasks to be handled simultaneously while using multiple cores. It is critical for AI, where billions and trillions of operations are handled at the same time. Investors are reacting to this new by pushing Nvidia's shares up 3.98% to $170.60. The company is now worth $4.16 trillion dollars. Secure your connection now at a bargain price! We may earn a commission if you make a purchase Check Out The Offer

The Nothing Phone (3) and Headphone (1) are now widely available in most regions
The latest chapter in Nothing's growing ecosystem is officially underway. The company has now opened sales in most regions for both the Nothing Phone (3) and its debut over-ear headphones, the Nothing Headphone (1).Following several weeks of heated online discussion — especially surrounding the updated design of the Phone (3) — the devices are now available in multiple regions, including the US, UK, Europe, and India. For those interested, purchases can be made directly through the official Nothing store, while third-party retailers such as Amazon and Flipkart are handling sales in select we reported in our review of the Nothing Phone (3), the phone takes a bolder aesthetic leap compared to previous models. The rear panel sees a major redesign of the Glyph Interface, now called Glyph Matrix, introducing more granular lighting zones and interactive animations. That change divided opinion early on, but the final release gives users more hands-on control with lighting patterns and real-time integrations. Hardware-wise, the Phone (3) includes the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, a 6.7-inch OLED display, and either 12GB or 16GB of RAM depending on the configuration. Storage goes up to 512GB, and customers in some regions are receiving free upgrades to the higher-memory model. However, this promotional offer is not available everywhere. One regional variation worth noting is the Indian version of the Nothing Phone (3) , which ships with a larger 5,500mAh battery. The international variant carries a slightly smaller 5,150mAh cell. This distinction might matter to heavy users, especially with Nothing's increasing focus on long-lasting performance.

Featuring a transparent outer shell that fits Nothing's signature design language, the headphones support active noise cancellation, dual-device connectivity, and personalized sound profiles. While early impressions have been limited, these headphones are positioned to compete in a market already dominated by established players like Sony, Apple, and Bose. With both devices now widely available, the real test begins. Will the Phone (3)'s divisive design and modest hardware tweaks prove appealing to longtime fans? And can the Headphone (1) carve out space in a crowded field?As always, we'll be keeping a close eye on community feedback and long-term impressions — but for now, Nothing is keeping its momentum going with bold choices and growing ambitions.

Nothing Phone (3) review
The third time's a charm - or so Nothing hopes with its latest release, the Nothing Phone (3). Following up on the well-received Phone (1) and the more performance-oriented Phone (2), the new model pushes the company's design-forward philosophy into more premium territory, while also refining the formula that brought the startup so much attention in the first place. Positioned as the flagship of the Nothing lineup, the Phone (3) arrives with a more mature attitude - and a matching price tag. The base 12/256GB variant starts at $799/€799/£799/₹79,999, while the 16/512GB model goes up to $899/€899/£899/₹89,999. That's a big step up from the Phone (2), placing it squarely in competition with established premium midrangers and even some full-fledged flagships.

On the outside, the Phone (3) sticks to Nothing's now-iconic transparent design language but tweaks it in new directions. The most noticeable change is the introduction of the Glyph Matrix on the back - a new take on their lighting interface. The old LEDs are gone now and you get a new dot-matrix display that adds a new dimension to notifications and personalization. The chassis is flatter and more angular than before, and the combination of an aluminum frame, Gorilla Glass Victus on the back, and Gorilla Glass 7i on the front maintains the premium build quality established by its predecessor. Under the hood, Nothing has opted for the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset - a capable sub-flagship SoC that strikes a balance between efficiency and raw power. It's paired with up to 16GB of RAM and a large 5,150mAh battery, a clear upgrade over previous models. The new 65W charging promises fast top-ups. The display also receives a boost, now featuring a 6.67-inch OLED with up to 4,500 nits of peak brightness, as well as slimmer bezels than ever. Camera-wise, Nothing has expanded things by adding a third 50MP 3x periscope telephoto on the back, alongside the 50MP main camera and 50MP ultrawide. In many ways, the Phone (3) represents an incremental upgrade and refinement of the familiar formula rather than a massive change or leap forward. Whether that comes at too great a cost - literally and figuratively - is what we're here to find out. Let's dive into the details. Unboxing The Nothing Phone (3) ships in a rather oversized box. It is a white box with the traditional Nothing styling on top. Actually, the styling is mostly limited to the sleeve covering the box. The box itself is almost entirely white. The inner box is very hard and rigid, perfect for protecting the phone during shipping. There is a cradle for the actual phone on the inside to keep it snug and safe. Everything appears to be made of cardboard, which is a nice touch. In terms of accessories, our European unit naturally did not come with a charger in the box. There is no physical space for a charger in the box either. Still, some retailers may offer a bundle deal that includes a charger, so be sure to check. What is in the box is a transparent TPU case. It's nice and thick, making it a great addition to start using your shiny new phone right away. Additionally, you receive a stylish Nothing USB Type-C to Type-C cable. Page 2
