Hello everyone ,
Hope you guys are doing well and enjoying the Nothing Community
I’ve been using the Nothing Phone 3 for a while now, and here’s my honest experience after daily usage.
I used this phone as a main device for almost 1 month.. And here is my thoughts or review on this device.
—
What I Liked
Design –
Transparent Back + Glyph Matrix
The transparent design with the new Glyph Matrix looks futuristic and gives the phone its unique identity. It’s not just for looks — the lights show notifications, charging progress, and even act as a video indicator.
Display –
6.67″ OLED, 120Hz
Sharp, smooth, and bright — perfect for daily use, gaming, or watching content.
Performance –
Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 + Nothing OS 3.5
Super smooth and responsive. Multitasking, animations, and app performance are all consistent and lag-free.
Battery
5500mAh + 65W Fast Charging
Easily lasts a full day. Plus, supports wireless and reverse wireless charging, which is a nice touch.
Cameras –
50MP Triple Setup (Main + Ultra-Wide + 3× Telephoto)
The main camera performs great in daylight.
I loved how the rear red light and mini display turn on while recording videos — makes framing yourself much easier and looks cool too.
Software – Clean Nothing OS 3.5 (Android 15)
No bloatware, smooth interface, and long-term support with 5 years of OS updates & 7 years of security patches.

What I Didn’t Like
Portraits – Edge detection and detail could be better.
6× Zoom – Colors shift and details drop noticeably.
Low Light – Photos get noisy; not consistent across lenses.
Ultra-Wide – Still uses an older sensor; struggles in dim light.
Weight – At 218g, it feels heavy for one-hand use.
Video – No all lens switch in 4K/60fps and no portrait video mode.

Final Verdict
* Great choice for those who love unique design, clean software, and reliable main camera shots.
* Not ideal if you care most about portraits, zoom quality, or lightweight comfort.
* Overall: A stylish and futuristic phone with smart design touches like the rear recording light — but not the most balanced flagship for the price.
