Nothing is getting louder — in its signature, minimalist way. The London-based startup has officially confirmed a July 2025 launch for the Nothing Phone (3), and this week we got our first taste of what to expect. A new teaser dropped on the brand’s official channels showcases an intriguing close-up of a physical button with a textured, almost Braille-like pattern, hinting that accessibility may be a key theme this time around. It’s a bold but welcome shift for a company known more for transparent aesthetics than inclusive design.
The teaser also reveals a subtle dual-tone finish, reminiscent of the CMF Phone 2 Pro’s White and Orange variants — further evidence that Nothing continues to evolve its design language while maintaining its signature visual identity.
Nothing CEO Carl Pei is setting expectations sky-high. In a recent statement, he called the Phone (3) “Nothing’s first true flagship smartphone,” marking a strategic leap from the mid-premium space into full-blown premium territory. Pei emphasized that the new device will feature top-tier materials, performance upgrades “across the board,” and AI-driven software experiences aimed at real-world utility — not just gimmicky buzzwords.
And with that flagship status comes a flagship price: Nothing Phone (3) will reportedly launch at around £800 \$836 / ₹71,185) for the 12GB + 256GB variant, with a much lower India starting price of ₹49,999.
While full specs remain under wraps, it’s almost certain that the Phone (3) will continue the brand’s legacy of transparent hardware design — but this time with serious performance chops. With AI now woven into the device’s core experience, we can likely expect smarter photography, better contextual awareness, and deeper software customization. Sources close to the company suggest the launch model will feature at least 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, positioning it directly against upper-tier Android flagships from Samsung, Google, and OnePlus.
No More Glyph?
The thing is that recent teasers have also mentioned the lack of propper Glyph lighting, saying that the Glyph is dead. That’s a weird approach, as the Glyph lighting has been a staple of the company’s products over the past years.
