1. Camera

One thing I didn’t care much about initially but now find annoying is the camera performance. While my friends with iPhones or even Realme phones click amazing photos, I’m left wanting more. I’m hoping for a triple 50MP setup on the NP3—main + ultra-wide + periscope lens.

2. Battery

When the Nothing Phone (2) launched, the battery was decent but not on par with the competition. It gave me good backup, but standards have risen since, especially with silicon carbon tech. I’d like to see at least a 5700-6000mAh battery with faster wireless charging .

3. Display

The display on the NP2 was nice, though I noticed occasional color shifting (yellow to blue) with night mode off. Over time, I got used to it. For NP3, I’d love a flat 2K LTPO 8T panel with decent (not record-breaking) brightness and DC dimming for better comfort during long usage.

4. Fingerprint

An ultrasonic fingerprint sensor would be a fantastic upgrade for the NP3. It’s faster and more reliable than the optical sensors we’ve been using.

5. Design

I liked the design of the Nothing Phone (2), but the slippery back made it almost unusable without a case. For the NP3, I’d love a clean, minimal design that isn’t too flashy. Also, keeping the weight under 200g would be a big win.

6. Gaming

I play games occasionally, but I’ve noticed the NP2 struggles with graphics-intensive titles. Most Nothing Phone users probably fall into a similar category. It’d be great if NP3 comes with gaming optimizations and a better gaming mode, ideally with a pop-up view for apps like Xiaomi phones offer.

7. Chipset

This is a dealbreaker for me—if the NP3 doesn’t have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or 8 Gen 3 Elite chipset, I’d be disappointed. The NP2’s custom ROM support and strong community were big positives, but Dimensity processors don’t offer the same level of support, which is why they don’t appeal to me.

8. Nothing OS

Nothing OS 3 is solid, but the competition is pulling ahead by integrating AI into their systems. I remember the concept video showing an AI agent that communicates between apps and provides live insights. If Nothing can bring something like that to NP3, it would be a game-changer.

9. Pricing

Pricing is critical, especially in India. Phones like the OnePlus 13R and iQOO 12 are priced under ₹42K and could drop further when the NP3 launches. If Nothing nails the improvements I’ve mentioned, I’d expect the NP3 to start around ₹50K if Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and ₹60-65K if 8 Elite.

By now, I’m sure most features and the design for NP3 are finalized, and I believe we share a similar vision for what this phone could be. Here’s hoping Nothing delivers!

I m also waiting for nothing phone 3

Than I will exchange my phone 1

If they launch with this feature I lv it

I got to know that you are launching the phone 3 in last of month of March so I would like to tell the launch date so it can be a successful product.

I think your product should launch in Auspicious Time so your product can get a successful product.

The date is 30/03/25 as it comes on Sunday many people will see the launch event ! As it is a free time on that day .

Because it shows the relation between Nothing phone 3

3+0=3

0+3=3

2-5=3

Your well wisher

@TanmaySambrekar .

Nothing Phone 3 is rumored to launch in April 2025?, with leaked specifications suggesting it may feature the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3—the same chipset in the iQOO Neo 10R, which has already launched globally.

While the specs of NP3 are still unconfirmed, if true, it’s a bit disappointing. Given that Nothing is positioning this as a flagship, it should have aimed higher—perhaps with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, putting it on par with devices like the iQOO 13, etc., etc.

My Thoughts

The Nothing Phone 3 is expected to bring wireless charging, a refined camera system (than the NP2), and its signature transparent design (As always). However, the iQOO Neo 10R counters with a bigger battery, faster storage, and a significantly lower price. Reports indicate that the iQOO Neo 10R is priced below $350, while the Nothing Phone 2 still costs over $450.

As a Nothing fan, While I admire Nothing’s clean OS, excellent software update policy, and unique design, the rumored specs feel underwhelming. If these leaks hold true, Nothing might struggle to justify its premium with the pricing.

What do you think?

I have been looking at new phones for a while now, and while there are great phones widely available right now, I just want a 3.5mm headphone jack in a modern flagship. Sony is my top option right now, but I love the idea of the Nothing phones and the lack of a headphone jack is the only thing holding me back from purchasing one.

Personally don’t have a nothing phone, (I do have the CMF buds pro 2) but I think a built in Matte display on a new phone or even touch pad would be pretty cool. I don’t know if I’d buy the phone but if there was a pretty cheap touch pad I might consider purchasing.

Nothing phone 3

I like the concept of the nothing phone and I might take the plunge and buy the Nothing Phone 3, but what bothers me a little is the 4 years of guaranteed updates, it’s not much when the price of the phone is around 650 euros, ……..
