Hello Nothing community, this is my first post here. I am not sure if it is the right place to ask this, but I’ve been trying to purchase a Nothing Phone 3a Blue 256GB in India. I am aware that Flipkart is the “authorised reseller”, but they are unreliable, untrustworthy and is full of scams and shady practices. Their exchange program is a massive scam. Their customer support is horror stories. I would rather not buy it from them.

The phone is also available on Amazon and I am planning to buy it from there. Amazon is straightforward and transparent and even gives a 7 day replacement guarantee while Flipkart does not. Can be there any potential issues on buying it from Amazon? I am pretty sure the devices will be genuine. My question is if the warranty will be honoured? Amazon says that “1 year warranty” will be available. Does anyone have an experience of buying Nothing Phones from Amazon?

(Croma does not stock Blue in my city and their website also does not have Blue 256GB available).

Any help will kindly be appreciated. Please help out a new member to the Nothing family.

    vadakkus don’t buy from Amazon as it is not official partner with nothing buy from Flipkart or croma they both are official partner in India

      vadakkus I will recommend don’t go with nothing at all as a 2a user I had a bad experience with 2a multiple issues in display, camera, network but nothing is not providing any solution I would recommend go with iqoo 10r or Nord 4

          James_bond I personally do not like Chinese bloatware. The main reason I am looking for Nothing is that I can absolute not compromise on the clean Android experience. I was using Android One Nokias until now so absolutely cannot go back to laggy bloatware.

              vadakkus avoid Amazon as I said order from Flipkart or croma offline/online store would be good

                Bro if you want you can buy from Croma, I got mine 2A from one of the outlets.

                  ParulPal Thank you but Croma does not stock the Blue one. Apparently they won’t get the stock is what they told me. The biggest Croma in my city had only 10 pieces delivered: 5 White (all 128GB) and 5 Black (2 of them 256GB). Not even a display piece. Clearly improving physical sales isn’t on Nothing’s radar.

                      vadakkus then but moto and you can delete or disable the bloatware apps in Chinese phones
