ToggleThe Mobile World Congress 2025 currently taking place in Barcelona saw the launch of the latest addition to the Nothing smartphone family—the Phone 3a series. This lineup includes two models: the standard Phone 3a and the higher-end Phone 3a Pro.
Both smartphones are competitively priced under Rs 30,000, with the Phone 3a costing Rs 24,999 and the Phone 3a Pro available for Rs 29,999. A standout feature of these devices is their innovative Glyph Interface, which allows for extensive customization to enhance user experience. This time around, both models also feature the new Essential Key. Here’s a detailed overview of the specifications and features of these compelling smartphones.
The Nothing Phone 3a is offered in three distinct color choices: White, Black, and Blue, and it showcases attractive Glyph lights embedded on its back. Constructed with a plastic back and frame, the device weighs in at a manageable 201 grams. Its display is a stunning 6.77-inch AMOLED screen with a refresh rate that can reach up to 120Hz and a maximum brightness of 3000 nits, making it ideal for vibrant usability even in well-lit conditions. Underneath the hood, it runs on the capable Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset and operates on Nothing OS 3.1, which is based on the latest Android 15.
In the camera department, the Phone 3a boasts an impressive triple camera setup that includes a 50-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a newly introduced 50-megapixel telephoto sensor. For selfie enthusiasts, there’s a 32-megapixel front-facing camera. To keep users powered throughout the day, the smartphone is equipped with a robust 5,000mAh battery, supporting 50W fast charging for quick top-ups.
The Nothing Phone 3a Pro distinguishes itself with a different aesthetic, featuring a notable round camera module design. Like its counterpart, this smartphone utilizes a plastic back and frame, but it weighs a slightly heftier 211 grams. It too sports a 6.77-inch AMOLED display, with the same capabilities of a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 3000 nits peak brightness, ensuring an engaging visual experience and smooth scrolling.
The Phone 3a Pro runs on the same Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor and carries the Nothing OS 3.1, delivering seamless performance. A significant upgrade in this model is found in its camera specification, where it features a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, complementing the primary 50-megapixel camera and the 8-megapixel ultrawide sensor. Like the Phone 3a, the Pro variant is also backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 50W charging, ensuring that both devices can maintain functionality throughout long daily usage.
