The Nothing Phone 3A and 3A Pro have leaked in new images and videos that show off the two phones’ designs and detail the key specs. So far, the two phones appear to be almost identical, with only two camera changes — and slightly different rear camera designs — to pull them apart.
First Android Headlines leaked what appear to be official renders of the two new phones. The 3A and 3A Pro look similar, both using Nothing’s now-trademark semi-transparent design language and Glyph lighting system, in black and white versions. The two phones only appear to differ in their cameras: while the 3A has its three lenses laid out in a horizontal line, the 3A Pro has a more… avant garde arrangement, with the three lenses and flash in a sort of half-spiral in the circular camera module.
Leaker Arsène Lupin then followed up with what appear to be the official reveal videos for each phone, detailing the core specs and showing the designs off in motion. Both phones seem to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, and have the same 6.77-inch 120Hz AMOLED displays.
They also both appear to include the teased new button, shown in the videos triggering an AI assistant and a feature called “Essential Space” that “organizes content and generates action points.” That appears to essentially mean an AI-powered, visual to-do list.
The only differences between the phones’ specs so far lie in the cameras. They share the same 50-megapixel main camera and 8-megapixel ultrawide, but the other two lenses differ. The Pro model uses a 3x periscope lens, while the 3A has a shorter 2x telephoto lens, though both offer the same 50-megapixel resolution. On the front, the Pro sticks to 50 megapixels for its selfie camera while the 3A drops to 32.
The camera specs match the few details that Nothing confirmed when it released a video on Tuesday showing how the 3A series’ cameras compare to an iPhone 16 Pro Max’s. Fans quickly spotted an error in the video though: in a segment boasting about how much better the Nothing phone’s video stabilization is, the iPhone was using its ultrawide rather than the optically-stabilized main camera. Nothing fessed up to the error in a pinned comment on the YouTube video.
“Hey everyone, we shot across all lenses throughout the day (sometimes cycling one-handed on a bumpy road), and in editing, a clip shot using the iPhone 16 Pro Max’s ultrawide lens was mistakenly used in the video stabilisation comparison instead of one shot using its standard lens. There was no intent to mislead, and we’ll be more careful to ensure even greater scrutiny in future comparisons. Appreciate you all keeping us accountable!”
The two new Nothing phones will be revealed soon, with an official launch set for March 4th, in the midst of Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress trade show. Last year’s Nothing Phone 2A didn’t officially launch in the US — it was only available through a limited developer program — and it remains to be seen if that will change for the 3A series.
