Nothing Phone 3a Series Set for March 4 Launch With Bold Design and Camera Upgrades

The Nothing Phone 3a and 3a Pro introduce new camera configurations, avant-garde designs, and AI-powered features, but a promotional error has drawn scrutiny.

Nothing has confirmed the global launch of its Phone 3a series, including the 3a and 3a Pro models, on March 4, 2025, during Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The devices feature a semi-transparent back with Glyph lighting and distinct camera layouts, with the Pro model showcasing a more unconventional, asymmetrical design.
Both phones are powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset, include 6.77-inch 120Hz AMOLED displays, and offer up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
The 3a Pro introduces a 3x periscope telephoto lens with 60x digital zoom, while the 3a offers a 2x telephoto lens with 30x digital zoom; both models include a 50-megapixel main camera.
A promotional video comparing the 3a's video stabilization to the iPhone 16 Pro Max mistakenly used footage from the iPhone's ultrawide camera, prompting Nothing to acknowledge the error and pledge stricter quality checks.
