Nothing has officially confirmed a major highlight for its upcoming flagship — the Nothing Phone (3). Scheduled to launch globally and in India on July 1st, this highly anticipated smartphone marks the company’s biggest leap in software longevity and processing power to date. With 5 years of OS upgrades, 7 years of security patches, and the new Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, the Phone (3) is set to redefine Nothing’s premium smartphone strategy.
Long-Term Software Support Confirmed
Nothing’s co-founder Akis Evangelidis took to social media to confirm that the Nothing Phone (3) will receive an impressive 5 Android OS upgrades and 7 years of security updates. This commitment surpasses the 3 OS upgrades and 4 years of security updates offered with the Nothing Phone (2), demonstrating a significant step forward for the brand.
Evangelidis also explained the brand’s decision to go with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 over the more premium 8 Gen 3, citing better GPU, NPU, ISP, and connectivity on the 8s Gen 4. The brand emphasises that this chipset, paired with the optimised Nothing OS, ensures a fast, fluid, and refined user experience.
“Paired with all the optimisations we’ve made in Nothing OS, the result is next level. Super fast and smooooth.” – Akis Evangelidis
Hardware & Software Highlights
Processor: Snapdragon 8s Gen 4
OS: Nothing OS (likely version 3.2)
OS Upgrades: 5 Android versions
Security Updates: 7 years
Model Number: A0245
The phone is expected to ship with the latest version of Nothing OS and bring refined UI transitions, smoother animations, and new AI-based software optimisations.
Design and Features: What’s New?
One of the biggest changes confirmed is the removal of the Glyph interface, a signature design element present on previous models like the Phone (1) and Phone (2). The Nothing Phone (3) will sport an entirely new back panel design, signalling a fresh approach to the brand’s visual identity.
It is likely to be available in Black and White colour options, maintaining the minimal aesthetic that Nothing is known for.
Camera expectations are also high, especially considering the recent Nothing Phone (3a) Pro debuted with a 50MP 3x periscope lens. There’s speculation that the Phone (3) may adopt the same lens or even a more advanced zoom setup.
Pricing and Availability
While official pricing will be confirmed at launch, leaks suggest the following:
256GB variant: $799 (Approx. ₹68,800)
512GB variant: $899 (Approx. ₹77,500)
The device will be sold via Nothing’s official website, major e-commerce platforms, and select retail outlets across India and other global markets starting July 1st.
Final Thoughts
With enhanced long-term support, a powerful new processor, a redesigned exterior, and flagship-tier camera expectations, the Nothing Phone (3) positions itself as a future-ready alternative in the Android market. The extended software policy is a standout move, setting a new benchmark for mid-premium smartphones. As the launch date approaches, anticipation builds around how Nothing will continue to innovate while staying true to its minimalist roots.
