Nothing will announce its first full-blown flagship, the Phone (3), on July 1, 2025, in London—just a few weeks away. So far, the company has shared only close-up shots, but today leak expert Max Jambor gave us the first full look—and it raises some interesting questions.
Thanks to Max Jambor’s render on X, we finally see the complete back of the handset. What stands out first is the camera island—it’s noticeably smaller than the one on the Phone 3a Pro. It doesn’t look as bulky or attention-grabbing, which could hint at a cleaner, more refined build.
No More Glyph
Another big reveal: Nothing seems to have dropped its signature Glyph lighting—those fun LEDs around the back. Instead, rumors say the company might be testing a dot-matrix display, similar to what’s seen on some gaming phones (like the ROG series). However, nothing in the leaked render shows it—maybe it’s hidden under a special translucent layer? We’ll need to wait for July 1 to know for sure.
Nothing Phone 3 Camera
The render shows a triple‑camera setup: two round lenses on the right and a pill-shaped module on the left. Reports say these likely include a main camera, ultra-wide, and a periscope telephoto lens—even though it doesn’t look like the usual periscope shape.
There are also extra buttons: aside from the usual power and volume keys on the right side, two more buttons appear on the left. They might be customizable—maybe an AI key—but again, Nothing hasn’t confirmed.
Flagship power with flagship price
This Phone (3) isn’t holding back. It’s expected to pack a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a 5000 mAh battery, and a flagship-grade triple camera system.
On price, CEO Carl Pei hinted it will be around £800 in the UK, matching recent Galaxy S25 pricing. That converts to roughly €945, $800 in the US, or about INR93,000 in India.

Why It Stands Out
- Cleaner look: A smaller camera island could give the Phone (3) a sleek, minimalist vibe.
- Glyph gone—but maybe not lost: Switching from lights to a dot-matrix display could keep the fun but in a more subtle form.
- Triple-camera setup: Everything points to serious photo power, including a periscope lens for better zoom.
- First true flagship: With high-end internals and premium pricing, Nothing is finally stepping up to go against Samsung and Apple.
Final Thoughts
We’re just a few weeks away from July 1, when Nothing will lift the curtain. Watch for details on the front screen, what those extra buttons do, whether the dot-matrix display is real, and full camera specs.
All signs point to the Nothing Phone 3 shaking things up with a fresh look, real flagship performance, and a smart rethink of its Glyph heritage.
