London-based smartphone maker Nothing, on Tuesday, July 1, unveiled the Phone (3), its first-ever premium flagship phone in India. The newly launched phone ditches the company’s iconic Glyph interface in favour of Glyph Matrix, a circular micro-LED screen on the back.
Featuring a 10-bit 6.67-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and outdoor brightness of 1,600 nits, the Nothing Phone (3) is powered by the newly launched Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a powerful chipset that can be found on some mid-range phones like the Poco F7 and the iQOO Neo 10. Compared to its predecessor – the Phone (2), Nothing claims that its newest device sports a 36 per cent faster CPU, 88 per cent faster GPU and performs AI tasks about 60 per cent faster.

The back of the phone carries over Nothing’s transparent design language with geometric patterns. You also get a triple camera setup that consists of a 50MP primary sensor in addition to a 50MP ultrawide shooter and a 50MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The front of the phone also houses a 50MP selfie shooter. And while the rear cameras can capture videos in 4K resolution, for reasons unknown, the selfie camera can only record in Full HD (1080p).

Apart from the volume rocker and the power button, you also get the Essential Key, which was introduced earlier this year with the Nothing Phone 3a series. The Nothing Phone (3) comes with Nothing OS 3.5 based on Android 15 out of the box, with the company promising 5 years of OS updates and 7 years of security patches.
As one would expect from a flagship device, you also get IP68 dust and water resistance, with the front and back of the phone protected by Gorilla Glass 7i and Gorilla Glass Victus, respectively. All of this is backed by a 5,500mAh battery that supports 65W wired and 15W wireless charging.
