Phone (3) Cell Phone, 5G Unlocked Phones 512GB, Android 15, Snapdragon 8s Gen4, AI Mobile Phones with Four 50MP Cameras & AMOLED Display, 5150mAh, Glyph Interface, Smartphone Black

Honestly, this phone is really cool and great. To start off, this phone basically synched up everything from my previous phone via Google, setup was surprisingly simple. It's design is unique, and practical too. It's performance is nothing to be bummed about, despite not having the latest chip it still runs like a dream. It's OS is also very customizable, and the Glyph Matrix is a REALLY fun mechanic that can also be customized This phone, although it can be too gimmicky for some, is really fun and unique at what it does. Only real complaint is that finding a good case for it is complicated due to its special design

I had been looking for a new phone on and off for a few years, and really started looking in the past few months since my existing phone was old. So old, that current apps would randomly crash. Not fancy games; no, Google messages, email, YouTube. I had an LG G8X Thinq Dual Screen(I really miss the separate/dual screens) :( It had the same specs as a Galaxy S10. Both the G8X and the S10 came out at the same time in 2019. Why Not Samsung?! Samsung, is outrageously over priced, and is full of bloat apps, and duplicate apps. Some, like KNOX you maybe shouldn't remove. There has been absolutely no outward innovation from Samsung in over 10 generations. All the phones look the same and all run over $1000. The phone also runs several AI agents, that I am not a fan of. The folding screens are a travesty across the board. 2 or 3 separate screens is the way to go. Why not Apple? Apple's history of 'playing games'(the battery limiting fiasco, fighting with app makers, internal planned obsolescence, $%&ty phone repair support without paying a kidney, for AppleCare, which the company continually tries to say 'does not cover X, Y, Z'. If you didn't have problems, great! I've worked in an Apple care approved repair company, and the number of times we had to turn down customers because AppleCare didn't cover the perfectly reasonable repair, was bonkers! Then we get to the sky high price for the phone, and the all intrusive Siri AI. "Hard No" Why Nothing? It's different, and leans toward use, instead of flash! Besides the Glyph features, the phone is really meant to 'get things done' In the settings, you have the options to use the normal flashy app icons, or 'grey scale' icons. You can also opt to show or hide the app names. Less clutter, so you can focus on 'that thing you are trying to do'. Yes the Nothing Phone 3 does have AI, as EVERY$$%%@#$THING does these days. Sadly, you can not fully disable or remap the 'AI' button. However, with a few minutes of tinkering in the settings, you can mostly disable the 'Nothing AI' features. Now the phone works as I really like it, plane and 'bare bones'. Great Job Nothing! The "Glyph" features are cool, make no mistake. It's nice to have...it's kind of a 'mullet phone'(LOL Sorry). Business up front, and party in the back. LOL Spin the bottle, dice, and the sun clock are neat and great for the odd party. The dice glyph has already settled several decisions with my friends and I, with a quick 'odds or evens' decision. LOL. The phone does have wireless charging. The coil is hidden under the decorative back façade. It's a little wonky and difficult to position on some wireless chargers(especially some portable battery banks with wireless charging), because the coil is shaped to make room for the 'glyph' button. But, it does work. Verdict, I'm a big fan of the phone and will likely stay with Nothing if they continue on this track. The camera is much better than the G8X, but I don't really care about a camera. I take more photos of serial numbers(I work it tech) than Instagram photos. If I can read the serial number, that's all I need. I'm not a fan of AI and I'm not really a mobile gamer. - No/minimal AI? Check! - Camera that works? Check! - 12/16GB of RAM for multi-tasking? Check! - Wireless Charging? Check! - Clean UI? Check - The speakers are a big improvement over the G8X, still very much 'phone speakers', but a nice boost, to movies/videos chilling at home. * I don't really have anything to say about the CPU(Snapdragon 8s Gen4) Not the Elite. I really haven't seen a problem not having the flagship proc. As the Nothing CEO said, they focused on a really good phone experience, and that's what they've done. No issue! The only things, I would change are personal nit pick gripes. - Option to disable/remove AI across the board - Reduce text/UI spacing. I like a really compact interface. I want to be able to see as much information on the screen as possible. - Make the wireless charging coil 'easier' to position. Great job Nothing!

Almost everything about this phone is amazing. There's honestly only two cons I have with this phone the first one being the price. If u can get it at a discount the dollar to value ratio is much better. I got mine at a decent discount so I'm happy with my purchase but if I was to buy this phone at retail price I think there are phones with better specs for what you pay. However this phone is more than just the specs (although they are pretty good) on paper. I came from a pixel 9 pro xl where specs aren't everything and it was my favorite phone I've ever used up until this point. (I'm a pixel guy so there's bias) I switch phones yearly though and any phone brand sold here in the US I've probably used at some point. Now after using the Nothing phone (3) this might just be my favorite ever. The software is just so clean. It takes great pictures especially with the recent software updates. It really feels unique and fun and is a nice change from my pixel or iphone without being too unfamiliar. The only other con I have is that it's extremely difficult to find good/high quality accessories like phone cases and screen protectors. But if u can get this phone at a good price and find a good case this phone is great and better than many YouTube reviews might suggest.

I really want to give this phone 5 stars. It's so close to perfect for me. I know the specs aren't the very best, but I love just about everything about it. There's only 1 reason I can't give it 5 stars so far. Maybe that will be fixed with software updates. I'll update my review if so. Ok, so, first of all, the main selling point with this phone is Nothing OS. I'm coming from Pixel, which up until now was my favorite Phone OS. The simplicity yet customizability of Nothing OS is really nice, but overall it still feels a lot like a Pixel. The Nothing Widgets are really nice and overall thoughtful and make the experience just a little bit nicer than Pixel in day to day use for me. I am also someone who really enjoys music, and I appreciate that this is something Nothing focuses on. It supports aptX and Spatial Audio, sounding really nice with my both my earbuds and my bluetooth Edifier speakers. From the hand feel, I know this is subjective, but the standard 6.3" Pixels are a little too small for my hands. The 6.8 Pro XLs feel too tall. The Nothing Phone 3 is the perfect size for me. It's almost as wide as the Pro XL, but not as tall, making it still pretty easy to hold in one hand. I also really like the haptics. It's got very satisfying feedback on everything. The rest of the hardware is fine. I liked the old Nothing designs better with the Glyph lights, and wish they hadn't spend money and R&D on the Glyph Matrix, but functionally I probably never would use either, other than as a fill light/flash light, which is the only thing I've found useful for the Glyph Matrix so far. That being said, the build quality overall is really solid. Battery life is good so far. I've been charging it to 80% overnight and using about 4-5 hours of screen time a day and still having about 20% battery left at the end of the day. I imagine if I really pushed it I would probably want to have charged it to 100%, but for my use, this is working great. The cameras are all good hardware, though the end result isn't always as good as on Pixels. I appreciate Nothing's dedication to software updates here. Since getting the phone I've gotten 2 updates, and each one made improvements to the cameras. I have taken some really nice photos overall, though I do need to fiddle with the settings just a bit more sometimes to get the shot I want now. This is honestly OK by me as one gripe I had with my old Pixel was even after I would manually adjust the white balance to get the colors right, my Pixel would post process the image, throwing the colors off of what I had carefully chosen. I also really love the Nothing Presets, which are settings that you can select (or create for yourself) to automatically apply while taking photos. Once again they're very thoughtful in their approach and make the photography experience much more fun. Now to the part where I have to knock off a star. When I first got the phone, the very first call I made I heard some weird static and glitching. I switched to bluetooth earbuds and it went away. I tested it again with another call and the same thing happened. Then I also noticed that there was a bit of a hissing sound from the top speaker/ear piece while playing music. I sent the phone back and ordered a replacement. By the time the replacement arrived I saw a new software update had appeared that addressed "noise on some phone calls". That update fixed the call issues overall, but the earpiece/top speaker still has that hissing sound with music a bit. I've played the same music on my Nothing Phone 3 and my Pixel 7 side by side, and the Pixel 7 has a warmer, richer sound. Now, I understand they're both phone speakers. They aren't going to sound amazing. But, like I stated earlier, music is important to me, and Nothing, who also makes earbuds and headphones and has a focus on audio should be better here. Part of my choice in Nothing was that focus. I don't use the phone speakers often, but it's disappointing that when I do, it's tinnier and just not as good as a 3 year old phone. There's a chance that a software update can fix this, like it fixed the call quality issue, so I'm holding out hope there. But honestly, like I said, it's a small issue for something I rarely use, so I honestly wouldn't even knock off a full star for it if I could. Other thoughts: I like what Nothing is trying to do to be unique as a company. The design itself is a bit polarizing, but it looks better in person, and, you can cover it up for the most part with a case if you really don't like it. I do like it. It took a little time to grow on me, but I appreciate the unique look. I know it's hard to break into the market here in the US with how carriers give discounts for signing with them, but I really hope Nothing can pull it off, because they've done some really nice things with this phone. Since it's just breaking into the market, there's not a lot of cases for it available. I appreciate that they included a basic case in the box along with a pre-applied screen protector. I was able to find a case I like with a magnetic ring that works with magsafe accessories, but, I really like matte screen protectors, and to get one of those I had to order one elsewhere and pay for international shipping.

Took some adjusting to it, but this phone looks clean and runs great. I've sworn by OnePlus phones for years for their speed, battery life and affordability and this phone tops them! A nice big middle finger to Apple as well.

I’ll plan to come back in a few months with a more complete review. The device arrived in flawless condition, just as expected. The unique design really stands out in person, and the Glyph Matrix is a fun touch. Coming from a OnePlus Open, performance feels just as fast and responsive. That said, the camera lacks stability and overall image quality. I’m hoping LineageOS adds support soon so we can properly de-Google the experience.

To start off I originally had put the phone on a plan from Mint Mobile. However within a week I switched to AT&T. On Mint, calls and texts worked but data would not. After a horrible CS experience with them I switched to AT&T. And everything worked great from then on carrier choice wise. Mint said the phone was compatible with the network but after 5 phone calls they then said it wasn't anymore. I also tried Metro but the phone is completely incompatible with them. So now about the phone. I actually really liked it and the following are some of my positive points. If your familiar with Android then it's like any other phone for the most part. Calls were of good quality. It was overall pretty snappy and quite fast. Browsing social media, scrolling through apps or the Internet felt very pleasant. The camera was really good too. It had really good low light capabilities and would snap really clean images. The phone was considerably lighter than my previous (now current again) ROG phone 3. The Glyph thing was a pretty cool feature. I personally like the clock and the sun tracker as I'm also into solar off grid systems. Didn't really play with it much beyond being picking a few neat toys to glance at every once in awhile from the available list. The battery life I felt was adequate. It'd generally last me about 2 days. For context. I spend probably a good 30% of my day on my phone browsing, shopping, researching and, scrolling. Now on to my complaints. Because I'm a big audio nut. Android Auto was my first and largest complaint. My vehicles have aftermarket stereos in them and I like being able to use my phone while driving totally hands free when the need arises. It is by far and large what my phones get used for primarily. AA would work fine for a day and then refuse to work at all. It would say things like "device not supported" or "failed to connect". Support would blame it on the cable but the cable works fine with my old phone. Even after rummaging through the Dev, app, and phone settings nothing changed. However if you reinstall the app or clear the app information it would work for about a day. Then just start throwing a fit again. I think this was more of a Android 17 issue than the phone though. So AA refused to work. So I tried Bluetoothing my audio and good God. That wasn't happening either. It cut out, dropped signal, lagged, and would constantly distort anything played through it like crazy. That was basically the final straw and where I gave up and returned the phone. Music is a big part of what I use a phone for and if that doesn't work right then I've got a problem with it. Looking back at it. I actually loved the phone but the AA and Bluetooth problems just quickly turned me away. I might try a newer interation of it in the future but perhaps with a bit more caution and testing before I commit to "moving into it".

Wow, in a world of boring yearly phone releases we get this gem from Nothing. This phone is flawless so far. Great battery life, a beautiful display, excellent connectivity (Google Fi). The phone is phenomenal and the fact that you get a massive amount of storage makes it even better. Nothing is a great company as well and they are really emerging as the next great innovators in multiple tech segments.

Ho acquistato il Nothing Phone (3) con 100€ di sconto il 6 settembre e da allora lo sto utilizzando come telefono principale. L’ho testato in chiamate, social, messaggistica, navigazione web e alcune funzioni avanzate. Pro: - Schermo OLED molto luminoso, leggibile anche sotto il sole - Interfaccia fluida e senza rallentamenti - Batteria sufficiente per coprire una giornata intera sotto stress, con ricarica rapida utile - Glyph Interface pratica come torcia e per anteprima selfie - Estetica distintiva e piacevole - Funzione Nothing Space ben progettata e davvero comoda - Community attiva che segnala bug e suggerisce miglioramenti, con l’azienda che ascolta e integra spesso i feedback Contro: - In Italia la batteria è limitata a circa 5150 mAh, anche se la capacità reale è maggiore - Non è presente lo slot per microSD ma nella versione da 512 GB lo spazio è comunque abbondante e non crea problemi Conclusione: Un telefono che si distingue per fluidità, autonomia e funzioni software ben curate. È una scelta valida per chi cerca un’esperienza Android essenziale con un’estetica diversa dal solito e un ecosistema in continua evoluzione. Aggiornerò la recensione tra qualche mese per raccontare come si comporta con un utilizzo più prolungato. Aggiornamento dopo 3 mesi di utilizzo: Dopo questi mesi di utilizzo non ho nulla da obiettare: il telefono continua a funzionare in modo impeccabile. La community è davvero uno dei punti di forza, sempre attiva nel segnalare bug o proporre miglioramenti. E devo dire che Nothing ascolta: ogni piccolo problema viene risolto praticamente in tempo zero con aggiornamenti puntuali. Non posso che confermare il giudizio iniziale, anzi… sono ancora più soddisfatto.

Me encantó

Excelente equipo. Muy rápido y con la ventaja de la familia nothing. Muy contento con la compra.

This phone replaced a OnePlus device which needed to be upgraded. I tried to get the OnePlus 13 for many months and gave up. I researched the Nothing phones and was lucky to get the phone 3 with max memory. The data transfer was a breeze and the UI proved silky smooth and mind blowing in it's speed. Since the upgrade my OnePlus buds pro 2 didn't have anc and some of the other features so I replaced them with the noting ear (a). What an improvement in sound quality and bass. The anc is much better too. Both items are worthy contenders in my opinion.

J'utilise ce Nothing Phone (3) et franchement, c'est une excellente surprise à tous les niveaux. Voici mon ressenti après l'avoir bien pris en main : Design et Interface : L'interface Nothing OS est toujours aussi agréable, simple et épurée, un vrai bonheur au quotidien. Le système Glyph au dos est certes un petit gadget visuel, mais c'est très ludique. Surtout, ça permet de poser son téléphone face vers le bas pour suivre ses notifications grâce aux lumières, ce qui évite d'être tout le temps tenté de déverrouiller l'écran. Écran et Performances : Le téléphone est ultra fluide et ultra réactif, même lors de longues sessions. L'écran est magnifique avec un excellent taux de rafraîchissement. Petit plus très appréciable : la fréquence descend à 1 Hz quand on utilise l'Always-On Display, ce qui est top pour l'optimisation. Photo et Autonomie : La batterie tient vraiment bien la route, rien à redire. Côté photo et vidéo, la qualité est parfaite. Pour les photographes amateurs, c'est un régal : on peut sortir des clichés magnifiques et facilement les exporter pour les corriger ou les retoucher sur un logiciel dédié. Bilan : Le plus gros point fort à mes yeux aujourd'hui, c'est le tarif. Avec la récente baisse de prix d'environ 15 %, il est devenu vraiment incontournable pour sa gamme. Si vous cherchez un smartphone original, performant et excellent en photo, vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés !
