Nothing Phone 3 is scheduled to have its curtain raiser on July 1, but the buzz surrounding the first “flagship” from the Carl Pei-led British company has given away a lot already. The signature Glyph Interface has been replaced with Glyph Matrix, a dot matrix-style design on the rear panel.
Days before its launch, new reveals have poured in, confirming major camera upgrades and spec boosts for the Phone 3.
Nothing Phone 3 Gets 50MP Periscope Lens
In its latest teaser about the Phone 3 on X, Nothing has confirmed that the device will sport a new camera. “Phone (3) with 50 MP periscope lens”, the post read, adding that it is “built for creators”.
While the zoom capability of the periscope lens is still a mystery, there are reports of a 50MP primary Sony sensor and a 50MP ultrawide as well. The selfie shooter could either be 32MP or even 50MP.
Nothing Phone 3 Specs Listed
First noticed by The Tech Outlook, Nothing Phone 3 made its appearance on the FCC certification platform, and with it, a lot of its specs have been confirmed.
The Phone 3, identified by the model number ‘A024', has obtained FCC certification with the FCC ID ‘2AZEQ-A024'.
The biggest news: The listing indicates that the Phone 3 will house a 5,150mAh battery, which is the largest cell ever in a Nothing phone. The device is anticipated to support wired fast charging up to 65W.
The device will come pre-installed with Nothing OS 3.3, which is based on Android 15, and integrate a metal frame antenna/coil antenna.
The listing confirms support for typical connectivity bands, along with Wi-Fi 6E that supports triple bands and NFC.
Nothing Phone 3 Price Bump
The Phone 3 is expected to be priced at $800, which is a $200 increase from the Phone 2's price of $600.
This is a major price bump, and it'll be interesting to see how the Phone 3 stacks up against the likes of the base Samsung Galaxy S25, which costs $800 as well.
