UK-based technology company Nothing has started manufacturing the Phone 3a series in India, the company announced today. The phone series designed in London is likely to have two versions, including a Pro version of the device.
The company has confirmed that it will launch Phone 3a in India through Flipkart without providing many details of the new device’s design and specifications. Phone 3a will likely have a glyph interface on the back, similar to its predecessor; however, the company has teased a transparent back as well.
Chip, battery and display
According to leaks of the series, the Nothing Phone 3a is likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor, which can be found on other phones such as Realme 14 Pro+ and Redmi Note 14 Pro+. It may have a battery capacity of 5,000 mAH with 45W fast charging.
While there has been no news about its display, it could come with the same 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate as the previous generation. It is also possible to feature the in-display optical fingerprint sensor in the Phone 2a.
Camera
A report by Android Authority suggests a telephoto lens as a part of its horizontally aligned triple camera design. The smartphone has been teased to have a camera control button, which was recently seen in the iPhone 16 lineup. It may come with a 32MP front camera, a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultrawide snapper with a 50MP 2x telephoto camera.
Connectivity and storage
It is likely to be the first device from Nothing to support e-SIM. If the report does not prove false, users can insert two nano-SIMs or one nano-SIM along with an e-SIM.
Furthermore, it may be available in 8GB/128GB and 128GB/256GB variants for the main model and its Pro version, respectively.
Price and release date
The pricing of Phone 3a is expected to cost between Rs. 23,999 and Rs. 25,999, while the higher model could be priced from Rs. 27,999 to 29,999. The exact specifications and pricing of the device will be unveiled during its launch event on March 4.
