Nothing Phone (3A Pro) — 12GB RAM • 256GB • 6.7″ OLED
Short intro
The Nothing Phone (3A Pro) refines the minimalist, transparent aesthetic Nothing is known for while delivering flagship-style performance. With a bright 6.7″ OLED display, Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 power, dual 50MP cameras and a long-lasting 5000mAh battery (45W wired / 15W wireless), it’s built for creators, power users and anyone who wants an eye-catching phone that performs.
Full, detailed description
The Nothing Phone (3A Pro) takes the brand’s transparent design language and polishes it into a product that’s as practical as it is distinctive. The 6.7-inch OLED panel strikes a great balance between immersive viewing and day-to-day ergonomics — colors are vivid, blacks are deep, and the adaptive 120Hz refresh rate keeps animations silky-smooth while conserving battery when high frame rates aren’t needed.
Performance is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 paired with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and fast UFS storage. That combination handles demanding mobile games, intensive multi-tab workflows, and content creation tools without stutter. Thermal management is tuned to keep sustained workloads comfortable and efficient.
Photographers and content creators will appreciate the dual 50MP camera setup (wide + ultra-wide) with sensor-level improvements and optical image stabilization on the main sensor. Nothing’s computational photography produces natural color rendering and retains detail in challenging light. The 32MP front camera delivers excellent selfies and reliable 4K video calls.
Battery life is a stand-out: the 5000mAh pack handles a full day of heavy use and the 45W wired charging gets you back to a substantial charge in minutes. If you prefer wireless, the device supports 15W wireless charging for convenient topping up. The software — Nothing OS 3.0 on Android 14 — is lightweight, privacy-focused, and includes small but thoughtful features (Glyph customizations, improved haptics, and quick gesture controls) that improve daily interactions.
