After the launch of the more affordable Phone 2a, Nothing is already concentrating on its fourth smartphone. A new report suggests the London-based startup has found the ideal chipset for its next phone. According to 91Mobiles Hindi, it will debut in the market with the Nothing Phone 3 branding.
Nothing is currently teasing the arrival of its next pair of earbuds, the Ear (3). However, given Nothing’s launch trend, the phone (3) should not be that far off. The report, citing information from industry sources, suggests that the Phone 3 will likely feature the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. This new chip is a toned-down version of the 8 Gen 3 for affordable flagship smartphones.
This makes it an optimal choice for the Phone 3, which is meant to be a sub-flagship phone priced between Rs 40,000 ($480) and Rs 50,000 ($600). At present, the Phone 2 is the most expensive product in Nothing’s lineup. It was announced with a starting price of Rs 44,999 ($540) last year.

The phone (2) has a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it has the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. It has a 4,7000mAh battery pack and supports 45W wired, 15W wireless, and 5W reverse wireless charging.
The Phone 2 has a pair of 50-megapixel cameras on the back and a 32-megapixel selfie sensor at the front for photos and videos. Like its predecessor, the phone (2) has a transparent rear panel with a Gylph interface. It shipped Android 13 but has since been updated to Android 14-based Nothins OS 2.5.
