Nothing is gearing up to launch its first flagship-level smartphone, the highly anticipated Nothing Phone 3. If you are in the market for a new Android-powered smartphone, you’ve come to the right place.
Here, we will examine the release date, specifications, designs, and other rumors surrounding the Nothing Phone 3. Let’s get started.
Nothing Phone 3 Release Date
The official X (formerly Twitter) account of the brand, Nothing, has revealed that the Nothing Phone 3 is set to release on July 1, 2025. The Nothing Phone 3 will be announced at 6 PM BST/10:30 PM IST.
Nothing Phone 3 Design Language
The Nothing Phone 3, as stated by Carl Pei is expected to come with flagship-level designs, materials, and performance. For starters, it looks like Nothing will be getting rid of its iconic Glyph interface and will switch it up with a dot-matrix styled interface for the rear. This dot matrix rear display will serve as a visual notification service.
Since the Nothing Phone 3 is being touted as a flagship smartphone, the Glyph interface would simply look and feel awkward on a smartphone with a high price tag. As you would expect from Nothing, the Phone 3 will have a similarly styled body and camera cutout/module that we saw for the Nothing Phone 3A.
The company has teased a little part of the device in its recent tweet. Take a look.
Tech journalist Max Jambor, shared a render of the Nothing Phone 3. It was among the Phone 3a design that didn’t get approve. However, since its design includes the small element that Nothing shared in the X post and it also lacks the glyph interface on the back, this may or may not be the Nothing Phone 3. Let’s wait for some solid information.
Nothing Phone 3: Rumored/Leaked Specifications
The Nothing Phone 3, being a flagship, is expected to come with the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. It would be pointless if a 2025 flagship smartphone came with a SoC from yesteryear. In terms of the RAM and ROM options, Nothing Phone 3 is expected to come in two variants: a 12 GB RAM, 256 GB storage option and a 16 GB RAM, 512 GB storage option.
Color options for the Nothing Phone 3 will be Black and White, according to leaks. Intern of the display, you can expect a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120 hertz refresh rate. As a flagship smartphone, you can also expect a peak brightness range of around 3000 nits.
Nothing Phone 3: Expected Pricing
According to noted leaker @MysteryLupin on X (Twitter), the pricing for the Nothing Phone 3 will be significantly higher than the Nothing Phone 2 launched in 2023. The expected pricing for the 12 GB ROM and 256 GB storage variant will be around USD 799, and the higher 16 GB RAM and 512 GB variant is expected to get a price tag of $899.
Nothing Phone 3: Software, AI, and Update Policies
On the software front, you will get Nothing OS 3.1 based on Android 15 out of the box. The software experience of Nothing OS is mostly clean with its own UI and AI elements, not to forget the unique dot matrix styled fonts.
On the AI side of things, the Nothing Phone 3 will come with a lot of good AI tools. One notable feature is the Circle to Search feature from Google, which lets you search for anything on your screen without having to switch apps.
You will also get the Essential Space feature that lets you save screenshots, voice recordings, and even images. You can easily arrange or organize all of these files using AI. Do expect Nothing to hopefully tease some more AI tools while launching the Nothing Phone 3.
Moving towards software updates, Nothing provides 3 years of major Android updates to its smartphones and 4 years of security updates.
The Nothing Phone 3 will be going on sale on the 1st of July on the popular Indian e-commerce platform, Flipkart, at 10:30 PM IST. Pricing and specifications for the device are yet to be officially revealed.
This concludes everything you need to know so far about the Nothing Phone 3. The brand’s first and true flagship smartphone is set for release on the 1st of July 2025.
