Introduction

A third time an attraction – either its latest release, is not expected with The Nathing Phone (3).

On the outside, the phone (3) is nothing, the transparent design language so far, but turns it into new directions. The most noticeable change is the beginning of glyph matrix at the back – a new tech on their light interface. The old LEDs are now gone and you get a new dot-matrix display that adds a new dimension to information and privatization.

Chassis is flattery and more angular than first, and a combination of an aluminum frame, gorilla glass on the back, and Gorilla Glass 7i on the front maintains the premium build quality installed by its predecessor.

Under the hood, nothing has been chosen for Snapdragon 8S General 4 chipset – a competent sub -flagship SOC that forms a balance between efficiency and raw power. It has been paired with RAM up to 16GB and a large 5,150mAh battery, which is a clear upgrade on the previous model. The new 65W charging promises fast top-up.

The display also receives a boost, now 6.67-inch OLED to 4,500 Nits of Peak Brightness as well as more slimmer bezels than before with slimmer bezels. Camera-wise, nothing is nothing, with 50MP main camera and 50MP Ultravide, the third 50MP 3x has expanded things by adding 3x periscope telephoto.

In many ways, the phone (3) represents an incremental upgradation and refinement of familiar formulas rather than a massive change or jump. Whether it comes at a very large cost – literally and rhetorical – that is to find out here.

Let’s dive into the details.

Out of the box

Nothing phone (3) ship in a rather oversized box. It is a white box that has nothing traditional. Indeed, the styling is limited to most box covering sleeves. The box itself is almost completely white. The internal box is very rigid and rigid, which is perfect for the safety of the phone during shipping. It is a cradle for the actual phone inside to keep it snag and safe. Everything appears to be made of cardboard, which is a good touch.

In terms of goods, our European unit did not naturally come with a charger in the box. The box has no physical space for a charger. Nevertheless, some retail vendors may offer a bundle deal that includes a charger, so be sure to check.

What is in the box is a transparent TPU case. It is good and thicker, from which it is a great addition to start using its bright new phone. Additionally, you get a stylish nothing USB Type-C for Type-C Cable.
