With the much-awaited Nothing Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, Nothing has formally increased the number of smartphones in its lineup. A premium experience is promised by these mid-range devices thanks to their strong hardware, cutting-edge camera technology, and distinctive brand design. Despite having a similar base, the Pro model has a number of improvements, such as a better camera system and unique design features. Let us examine the specifics.
Nothing Phone (3a) Advantage: Top-Notch Features in an Affordable Package
Impressing is the goal of the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro. It has a gorgeous 6.77-inch OLED screen with Panda Glass protection that provides vivid images with a maximum brightness of 1,300 nits, a steady refresh rate of 120 Hz, and 10-bit color depth. This remarkable display is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset, which guarantees flawless operation. Region-specific memory configurations include 8GB/128GB, 8GB/256GB, and 12GB/256GB.


Excellence of the Camera:
The camera capabilities of the (3a) Pro have not been heavily emphasized. A 50MP 1/1.56" sensor with an f/1.88 aperture and OIS is featured in the primary camera.
The 50MP 1/1.95" periscope camera with 3x optical zoom—which can be increased to 6x with Nothing's TrueLens 3.0 engine and AI—is the most notable feature.
The rear camera setup is completed with an 8MP ultrawide lens.
A 50MP front-facing camera produces high-resolution photos for selfies.
Features and Power:
50W fast charging is supported by a 5,000 mAh battery, allowing for a 50% charge in just 19 minutes.
Customizable LED notifications are available through the recognizable Glyph Interface.
The phone's functionality is enhanced by IP64 protection and the programmable Essential Key located beneath the power button.
Beginning with NothingOS 3.1, which is based on Android 15, Nothing promises three significant OS updates and six years of security patches.


Cost and Availability:
The 12GB/256GB model costs £449, $459, €459, or INR 33,999.
Moreover, 8GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB options are available in India for INR 29,999 and INR 31,999, respectively.
Available in black and grey.
