We have a very exciting announcement: we're hosting a drops event in London for Phone (3), and it's bigger and better than ever. Read on to find out how you can win a 3 year supply of Nothing products… On Saturday 12th July 2025, the first 100 customers at Nothing Store Soho can grab Phone (3) and Headphone (1), plus an exclusive tee (worth £1198 in total) for £800**.** First come, first served. The store opens at 11:00am, but you can queue in advance. And that's not all. > To celebrate the launch of the Nothing Phone (3), we're hosting a live in-store competition during the drops. Everyone who joins the queue from 11am (or any time throughout the day until close) will receive a scratch card that could reveal a very special prize: to win three years’ worth of Nothing products. Three lucky winners will pick up a winning scratch card throughout the day, with additional in-store prizes available (subject to availability). The competition will open until all three grand prizes are claimed, or until 6pm, whichever comes first. If you'd like to double your chances of winning, you can tag us in your Instagram story to receive a second scratch card. Drops are always such fun events, so we can't wait for you to get your hands on Phone (3) and Headphone (1)! Who will we be seeing there?

Thankfully, a recent email clarifies the drop:

And if you get in early you could be one of only one hundred to grab Phone (3) 16/512 and Headphone (1), plus an exclusive tee (worth £1,198 in total) for £800

So the £899 version for £800 + free headphones (1) + free tee. Nice.

That’s something for nothing, see you there 👍🏼

@AndyN I went to the 2a launch and most people didn’t arrive until after 10am. I was there from around 6am but it was way too early in retrospect. It’s not worth getting there that early imho. 9am would get you in the top 10.

All this being said, the free stuff might pique the interest of scalpers/flippers. So, maybe 8am?

@Tor at the last launch I went to (for the 2a) they had the white, black and milk colorways. I’m confident they’ll have both black and white available.

DanButterworth No one will make money flipping this phone.

I think this location of the camera is not accidental, it will be very convenient for her to shoot in difficult places. like a crack in the door… the gap under the bedside table. where the cameras located in the middle simply will not be able to take pictures. I’ve been waiting for something like this.

Tor

ok so I have my clarification ironically from Discord - since no mod, staff or other community member here could clarify my questions. Looks like the drop then is indeed this: Assuming, you are in the first 100 people in line to order, you get:

Phone 3 16GB/512GB version (colour unknown)
Headphone (1) - (colour unknown)
Exclusive T-Shirt?

for the price of £800 for everything. The Headphones are £299 alone. The price of the phone is basically get 512GB for the price of 256GB; saving you another £100 . This feels like a good deal and counters the price concerns assuming in the 100 spot.

AndyN

Tor nice, thanks for clarifying. Seems fair. I’ve no idea how likely a 100+ queue is going to be. It would be pretty annoying to travel up and still miss out by a few people. I can understand Nothing would like to see a queue for ‘the socials’ though, so fair enough I guess. Will give it a try.

Tor

AndyN hey Andy - yeah that’s the only downside - I might see you there as will try to pop down as well.

Smii

Vaguely regretting moving to the other side of the country, now!

DanButterworth

@AndyN I think the deal they are offering makes it more likely, but I do wonder if there are 100 people in London who want the Phone (3) given that it’s so marmite.

@Smii me too fella, I’m in South West Wales!

Anyone thinking of traveling more than a few hours for this? Potentially coming from north of England (about 3 hours travel away)…

I have just booked the sleeper train down from Glasgow overnight to come and try and be in the first 100 🤣

pixcel25

romano it makes sense if they are hq is in London so fair enough

romano

pixcel25 true but i hope they do this kinda stuff also in europe like the netherlands

CharlieNiekirk

Well I’ll definitely try to get in on this! Now I just need to figure out when to get there to guarantee being in the 100.

For clarification, below is what Nothing stated in their marketing email I received this morning. You get the 16gb/512gb version of the phone, the headphones and a t-shirt for 800 quid.

EDITED: To correct the amount of RAM (16, not 12).

Want to get your hands on them before open sales?

Join us in Soho on 12 July at 11:00 BST for our exclusive drops. From 11:00 BST we’re handing out scratch cards which could get you free Nothing product for three. entire. years*.

And if you get in early you could be one of only one hundred to grab Phone (3) 16/512 and Headphone (1), plus an exclusive tee (worth £1,198 in total) for £800.

First come, first served. See you there.

Nothing Store, 12 July at 11:00 BST

Anonymous784 just because you don’t like it, don’t assume there aren’t anxious fans waiting in a queue to get it.
I would bet there will be many people present.

CockneyCharlie in the beginning of your post you mention 12/512GB and at the end you say 16/512GB. Could you please correct the info? Thanks

Anonymous784

mafcarvalho You’d have to be crazy to pay £799 for these specs, and no Glyph Lights

Coldpaw

mafcarvalho Indeed, I doubt we’ll see cobwebs and tumbleweeds as they only attendees at these events. Some people actually like the design and are looking forward to it. If I would live near a location, I’d at least visit to take a closer look at the new phone myself, even though - as of now - I wouldn’t purchase one, and wouldn’t replace my NP2 with the successor, but at least taking a look doesn’t hurt.

CockneyCharlie

mafcarvalho Done. Thanks for the catch!

mafcarvalho

Anonymous784 I like the Glyph lights on my NP 2a but I wouldn’t have any problem replacing the lights with the Glyph Matrix. Evolution or change are normal events and humans should be able to adapt.

DanButterworth

CockneyCharlie If they get it free they will… that was my point.

This may not be something to write about here, but we are waiting for further news on the release of the product in Japan again.

Nothing these days, CMF products have a time lag of at least a month from announcement to launch.

This is very bad marketing.

Users who are considering the product will be discouraged from purchasing it.

This is something we need to do something about as soon as possible.

We Japanese users would like to celebrate at the same time as you😭
