I’m beyond excited for the Nothing Phone 3a Pro. Sure, it’s a small upgrade from the 3a, but for me, the periscope lens is everything. As a photographer, this addition is a game-changer.
Why the Periscope Lens Matters
Periscope lenses redefine smartphone photography, allowing for incredible zoom capabilities without sacrificing quality. But what excites me most is how they elevate portrait photography. With a periscope lens, I can capture perfect portraits with natural background separation and sharp details, even from a distance.
Just look at these photos shot using a periscope lens—the depth, clarity and separation wouldn’t have been possible without it.


A Premium Feature at an Affordable Price
Periscope lenses are expensive to manufacture, which is why they are usually reserved for flagship devices. The fact that Nothing is bringing this technology at an affordable price point is what makes the 3a Pro so exciting.
Yes, there are brands that offer periscope lenses at this price, but Nothing stands out. They provide a bloatware-free, clean user experience, something that’s rare in today’s smartphone market. No unnecessary apps, no ads, just a seamless and smooth OS.
For someone who values both photography and a refined user experience, the Nothing Phone 3a Pro is the perfect balance.
I can’t wait to get my hands on it.
