Nothing Phone 3 design just leaked in full — here's what the new renders show
The Nothing Phone 3 is coming very soon, and should feature a whole new design. The question is, what is that design actually going to look like? Well, these newly leaked renders (via Android Headlines) show off the phone from just about every angle. Unsurprisingly, Nothing is carrying on with the design style that it's best known for — with similarities to the Nothing Phone 3a and Phone 3a Pro. You get the same semi-transparent look, and the unique arrangement of the rear camera array. Admittedly there's also no visible Glyph Interface hardware, meaning that Nothing's trademark rear-mounted lights may not be coming. The company did warn us this would be happening. However, there is an LED Glyph Matrix in the top right corner of the phone. The images show that being used as some kind of equalizer, which could add that unique "wow" factor to the phone in place of the Glyphs. There's also the opportunity for better personalization, thanks to the multitude of LED lights. Color wise, if Android Headlines' info is accurate, we're looking at a choice of white, black or blue. I use the word leak quite lightly here, because Nothing has a habit of revealing a bunch of key phone specs ahead of the official launch. Like the fact the Phone 3 won't have a Glyph interface on the back. One of those reveals is that the Phone 3 will be powered by a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. While not quite as powerful as the Snapdragon 8 Elite found in other flagship phones it's still a new chip that should prove better than other options. And for a cheaper price. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. There's also confirmed to be a 50MP telephoto camera, and while we've not been given exact confirmation, rumor has it that the main and ultrawide lenses will have the same resolution. The rumors also suggest that we'll get a 5,150 MAh battery, 100W wired fast charging and 15W wireless charging. And it's all packed into a 6.7-inch phone with a FHD+ OLED display. We don't have long to find out, though, since the Nothing Phone 3 launch event is scheduled to take place next week on July 1 at 6 p.m. BST / 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT.

Nothing Phone 3 is confirmed to feature a periscope lens ahead of July 1 launch
Nothing Phone 3 launch is just days away, creating much curiosity and anticipation among fans and smartphone buyers. As we are getting closer to the launch, Nothing is gradually revealing some specifications and features of the smartphone. Over the past few weeks, Nothing has been sharing a few glimpses of the Phone 3 design, and this time it's the new periscope lens. Alongside the camera lens design, Nothing has also confirmed the camera resolution and zoom capabilities to entice buyers. Therefore, we expect a triple camera setup on Nothing Phone 3 that will include a main, ultrawide, and a periscope lens. Here's everything you need to know about the camera. Nothing shared a post on X (formerly Twitter), revealing Phone 3's periscope lens design and features. In the post, Nothing revealed that the smartphone will feature a 50MP periscope lens with 3x optical and 60x ultra zoom. The periscope lens will also feature a 10cm telemacro for close-up shots. Nothing also highlights that the camera bump on Phone 3 is 74% slimmer than the Phone 3a Pro model, revealing the design refinement on its flagship phone. Another mention on the X post was that the camera is 'built for creators'; therefore, we may get some additional camera features or tools. Camera samples by Nothing: Apart from the periscope lens, the Nothing Phone 3 is expected to feature a 50MP main camera and a 50MP ultrawide camera. For selfies, we can expect a 50MP front-facing camera. However, we may have to wait until launch to confirm these claims, or till Nothing makes an official statement. In terms of performance, the Phone 3 is confirmed to be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor that may power smartphones with AI capabilities, faster performance, and a smooth overall experience. We also came across the Geekbench scores that revealed 2076 points in single-core and 6577 points in multi-core testing. The smartphone was also tipped to offer 16GB of RAM, and it could run on Android 15-based Nothing OS 3.5. The Nothing Phone 3 is also expected to feature a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display that may offer a 120Hz refresh rate and a higher peak brightness in comparison to the predecessor. Lastly, the smartphone is rumoured to get an upgraded battery with a 5150mAh battery and 65W charging support.

Nothing Phone 3 borrows camera from mid-range sibling, but it can still be a flagship
The steady flow of teasers and information about the Nothing Phone 3 continues to flow, as the latest offering from the company gives us our first insight into the rear camera setup on the handset. Nothing has revealed the Phone 3 – its upcoming flagship smartphone set to launch on July 1 – will feature a 50MP periscope camera. It's unlikely to be the only camera on the device, but it's the first one it's confirmed and it even provided us with a picture (at the top of this article). Recommended Videos We were also given a look at a quartet of images, presumably shot using the aforementioned camera on the Phone 3, although it's not clear if they have been edited in any way or if these are shots straight from the camera roll. For the Nothing fans among you, this camera may sound familiar. And you'd be right. The Nothing Phone 3a Pro which launched earlier this year also packs a 50MP periscope camera on its rear, alongside a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultrawide snapper. On the Phone 3a Pro, the 50MP periscope camera provides users with a 3x optical zoom – allowing you to get closer to subjects without any loss of image quality. It can also be utilized for macro photography, which it appears the camera on the Phone 3 has in the sample shots we've been shown. In our review of the Phone 3a Pro, we were impressed with the capabilities of the camera setup (disappointing ultrawide aside), but this is a phone almost half the price of what the Nothing Phone 3 is set to launch at. We've already been told the new phone will be around £800 (with rumors suggesting it'll be $799 in the US), which is raising questions around the flagship credentials of the handset. Is it still a flagship? Nothing is talking a big game when it comes to the Phone 3, describing it as the company's 'first true flagship smartphone' and claiming 'premium materials, major performance upgrades, and software that really levels things up.' With recent confirmation of the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset being used, there were some people questioning why Nothing hadn't gone with the top-of-the-line Snapdragon 8 Elite found in several flagship Android rivals. Add to that a camera potentially taken from a device almost half its price, should Nothing fans be worried about the Phone 3 not living up to the increasing hype? The chipset isn't Qualcomm's most powerful offering currently on the market, and it's predominantly aimed at mid-range phones rather than flagships. Yet, the 8s Gen 4 is certainly no slouch. It outperforms Qualcomm's former flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip which featured in high-end flagships including the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and OnePlus 12. That should translate into plenty of performance for most Nothing Phone 3 users (although we'll have to test it before making a final verdict). And while there could be some alarm bells around the new camera information, we'd expect the Phone 3 to have at least three rear cameras. There's also no guarantee the sensor on this handset is the same as the one found on the 3a Pro. Plus, with a more powerful chipset versus the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 in the Phone 3a Pro, there's bandwidth for more advanced camera processing and software features to further enhance the photography functions on the Nothing Phone 3. We'll still need to wait for the July 1 launch to find out just how Nothing's new flagship stacks up with the competition, but there are still plenty of signs it will be competitive.

Phone 3a vs 3a Pro: With New Discounts, Which Nothing Phone Is Right for You?
Nothing's latest mid-range offerings—the Phone 3a and Phone 3a Pro—have become even more enticing with new discount deals now live on Flipkart. Launched earlier this year, these devices are part of the brand's push to bring premium design and smooth performance at accessible prices. As part of the latest offer, the Nothing Phone 3a, originally priced at ₹24,999, now comes with a bank discount of ₹2,000, available on HDFC, ICICI, SBI, and IDFC cards. This brings the effective price down to just ₹22,999, positioning it as a highly competitive option in the mid-range market. The Phone 3a Pro, on the other hand, gets a similar treatment. With a listed price now at ₹28,999 and the same ₹2,000 bank discount, buyers can grab the Pro variant for ₹27,999. The ₹5,000 difference between the two models comes with several upgrades that could matter depending on user priorities. What's the Same? Both the 3a and 3a Pro come with: A 6.77-inch AMOLED display boasting a smooth 120Hz refresh rate The Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset A 5,000mAh battery with 50W fast charging Android 15-based Nothing OS 3.1 The eye-catching Glyph Interface on the rear Key Differences: Cameras & Selfies Where the two phones diverge is in the camera department. Both feature a 50MP main sensor, but the Pro model uses the more advanced Samsung ISOCELL GNJ sensor for better clarity, particularly in low-light conditions. The standard 3a carries the older GN9 sensor, which is still capable but may not deliver the same finesse in detail. For zoom capabilities, the Pro takes a big leap forward. It offers a 50MP periscope telephoto lens using Sony's LYTIA 600 sensor, with 3x optical zoom, OIS, and even strong macro support. In contrast, the regular 3a includes a 50MP 2x zoom lens, but without optical image stabilization, which may impact photo sharpness in handheld zoom shots. Selfie lovers may also lean toward the Pro, which offers a 50MP front camera with 4K video support, compared to the 32MP sensor on the 3a. Both models use the same 8MP ultra-wide Sony IMX355 for wide-angle shots. Which One Should You Buy? If you're looking for a stylish, reliable everyday phone, the Nothing Phone 3a at ₹22,999 offers excellent value. It's ideal for users who don't need advanced zoom or pro-level photography. However, if you're someone who cares about camera performance, especially zoom quality and selfies, the 3a Pro at ₹27,999 justifies the extra cost. Wait for OnePlus Nord 5? While both Nothing phones present solid value, those who can wait may want to hold off until July 8, when the OnePlus Nord 5 is expected to launch. Tipped to be priced between ₹30,000 and ₹35,000, the Nord 5 is rumoured to pack the MediaTek Dimensity 9400e chipset and a massive 7,000mAh battery, potentially making it a powerhouse in the upper mid-range bracket. In summary, Nothing's limited-period offers make the Phone 3a and 3a Pro compelling buys today—but upcoming competition could shift the equation soon.

Images revealing the design of the upcoming Nothing Phone 3 have reportedly surfaced online. According to a report by the Verge, the images reveal that the Nothing Phone 3 will have a triple camera set up at the back, with an arrangement reminiscent of the Phone 3a Pro, which launched earlier this year.

Nothing Phone 3: Expected design The alleged images of the Nothing Phone 3 reveals the back panel design of the smartphone. Besides the camera arrangement, it suggests that Nothing will continue with the transparent back design. The images also show that there are no more Glyph lights at the back, which corresponds to Nothing's previous statement 'We killed the Glyph Interface.' What to expect from Nothing Phone 3 At Google's Android Show: I/O Edition, Nothing CEO Carl Pei gave a sneak peek at the upcoming Phone 3. Although the design remained obscured, Pei described it as the brand's first 'true flagship,' indicating a shift toward premium materials such as glass and metal. He also hinted at a notable price increase, estimating the new phone could cost around £800 (approximately Rs 90,000)—almost twice the launch price of the Phone (2), which was introduced in 2023 at Rs 44,999. For the specifications, the Nothing Phone 3 is expected to sport a 6.77-inch LTPO AMOLED display offering a 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of up to 3,000 nits. It may be powered by either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or the more recent Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, coupled with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. The phone's camera system could feature a 50MP primary sensor within a triple-camera setup, along with a 32MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. The Phone is likely to pack a 5,000mAh battery that may support 50W wired and 20W wireless charging.
