The wait is over. The Nothing Phone 3 is all set to launch today, July 1, in India and globally. Touted as the company’s first true flagship smartphone, this device marks a bold move by Nothing as it looks to step beyond its design-focused roots and into the premium smartphone segment.
From its upgraded camera system to a powerful new processor, and a redesigned Glyph Matrix interface, the Phone 3 is shaping up to be Nothing’s most advanced phone yet.
How to Watch the Launch
The launch will happen live from Nothing’s headquarters in London. The global launch event begins at 6 PM BST or 10:30 PM IST. You can catch it live on Nothing’s official YouTube channel. The event is titled “Nothing Event: Come to Play.”

Nothing Phone 3 Price in India (Expected)
While Nothing has not officially confirmed the Indian pricing, company CEO Carl Pei has hinted that the Nothing Phone 3 will be priced around £800 — approximately ₹90,000. That’s nearly double the launch price of the Nothing Phone 2, which started at ₹44,999.
However, some sources suggest a slightly more affordable India price, likely between ₹50,000 to ₹60,000, depending on the storage and RAM configuration. This pricing aligns more closely with top-tier smartphones in India.
Nothing Phone 3 Specs and Features
Let’s take a closer look at what we know (and expect) from the Nothing Phone 3:
Performance and Processor
The device is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. It’s a high-performance chip that brings flagship-level performance while being efficient with power consumption. Compared to the Nothing Phone 2, this chip offers better gaming, multitasking, and overall speed.
Display
The Phone 3 features a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It also offers a peak brightness of 3,000 nits, making it great for both indoor and outdoor use.
Camera Setup
One of the biggest highlights is the triple camera setup:
- 50 MP main camera
- 50 MP ultra-wide camera
- 50 MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom
The periscope lens also supports impressive macro photography. The front camera is expected to be 50 MP as well, perfect for selfies and video calls.
Glyph Matrix: A New Take on Notifications
Nothing’s iconic Glyph Interface has been replaced by something called the Glyph Matrix. It’s a mini dot-matrix-style LED display placed on the back of the phone. This new design adds a fun and futuristic element while still serving as a notification system. You can customize it to show call alerts, volume changes, and other functions.
Battery and Charging
The Phone 3 packs a 5,150mAh battery with support for 100W wired fast charging. Wireless and reverse wireless charging are also expected. The battery should last a full day even with heavy use, thanks to the efficient processor and display tech.
Software and Updates
The smartphone will run Android 15 out of the box with Nothing OS 3.5. Even more exciting, Nothing promises 5 years of Android updates and 7 years of security patches. That’s among the best support commitments in the Android world right now.
