The $799 Nothing Phone 3 has four 50MP cameras and a secondary micro-LED display

The wait is over for the Nothing Phone 3, the company's first flagship smartphone since entering the market in 2022. Nothing CEO Carl Pei announced that the company is going all-in on the Phone 3 with premium materials, major performance upgrades, and improved software. The device features a new Glyph Matrix, a small micro-LED screen that replaces the usual Glyph Interface, designed to reduce user screen time by displaying app alerts and notifications on the back of the phone. The Glyph Matrix also comes with Glyph Toys, which act like widgets, and a public SDK will be released to allow people to create their own widgets and games. The primary display is a 6.67-inch AMOLED with a 1.5K resolution and 4,500 nits of peak brightness, making it the brightest and sharpest screen Nothing has shipped on one of its phones. The Phone 3 comes with a triple rear camera setup and a single selfie camera, all with 50-megapixel sensors, and supports 4K video recording at 60FPS. The phone is powered by a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 system-on-a-chip, which is 36 percent faster than the one found in the Phone 2, and comes with improved GPU performance. The Phone 3 will be available in two configurations, with the base model offering 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and the 512GB model coming with 16GB of RAM. Pre-orders for the Phone 3 open on July 4, with global availability to follow on July 15, and the phone will be priced at $799 for the 12GB model and $899 for the 16GB variant. The Phone 3 will come with Android 15 out of the box and will receive five years of platform updates and seven years of security patches.
