Key Background :
Nothing’s Phone (3) is the firm’s foray into the high-end flagship smartphone category after the success of its previous mid-range smartphones. The phone was initially previewed at a global launch event on July 1, and went on sale in India from July 2. The phone is the firm’s attempt to introduce revolutionary technology coupled with new-age design. Pre-orders have already begun, with open selling commencing from July 15 on e-commerce websites as well as offline stores.
Stuffed inside Phone (3) is Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, a flagship-grade processor based on the 4nm process, to deliver top-shelf performance. It comes with an Adreno 825 GPU and memory variants of 12GB/256GB and 16GB/512GB. The 6.67-inch AMOLED LTPO display has adaptive refresh rates of up to 120Hz and is optimized for gaming, video, and multi-tasking. Its 4,500 nits peak brightness also guarantees legibility in sunlight.
The phone would be highly desired by vloggers and phone enthusiasts alike for having a triple 50MP rear camera setup with 3x telephoto lens and ultra-wide-angle capability. The 50MP front camera makes the phone look even more attractive for creators. The phone has a 5,500mAh silicon-carbon battery that comes with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging for lag-free all-day usage.
The rear panel includes a new Glyph Matrix which introduces a cheerful notification system that well accommodates apps, calls, and settings. Contact light patterns for app notifications or run even in “Glyph Toys,” a fun mini-game mode. The phone also introduces smart AI-based features such as Flip to Record and Essential Search which introduce productivity enhancement features.
Nothing has also brought to the forefront long-term value and user retention. The company guarantees five years of Android OS updates and seven years of security updates for sure—a move only some in the category offer. With launch offers like free earbuds, warranty extension, and no-EMI, the brand is going after premium buyers’ catch-up in an aggressive manner.
By fitting its Phone (3) with an upgraded device and design signature of its own alongside new user interface innovations, Nothing is setting the Phone (3) up as a shakeup for the premium smartphone segment in India. It will compete head-on against the big players by providing performance and innovation at a price that cannot be beaten.
