Nothing Phone 3 Review

The Nothing Phone 3 is a rather bold, quirky phone that strives to do something different, from its off-centre, bug-eyed design to the playful Glyph Matrix on the back. Performance nad battery life are solid for everyday use, but there are cheaper phones with better processors, and the cameras can...
Pros:
  • Fun, unique design, Large, vibrant and bright screen, Nothing OS is a joy to use, Great battery life

Nothing Phone (3) review: Miffed by the Glyph

The Nothing Phone (3) is the most exciting flagship phone in years, if you can even call a £799/$799 handset a flagship. However, unless you love the wacky design, the identically priced Pixel 9 and Galaxy S25 are better long-term choices for most people.
Pros:
  • Gorgeous display, Excellent build quality, Strong performance, Superb battery life, Seven years of updates
Cons:
  • Strange design, Disappointing ultrawide camera, Limited ‘Glyph Matrix’ screen (for now)

Nothing Phone (3) Dual SIM 5G (12GB RAM, 256GB, White) - Brand New review

I actually like the Nothing Phone 3 quite a bit. I know I just got done ranting about several things, but overall, the parts of this phone that you need to be good good. Battery life is exceptional. The display is good enough. Performance is buttery smooth. The software is excellent.

Nothing Phone 3 review: More premium, more problems

Nothing's third flagship delivers the goods when it comes to specs and design but struggles to justify its inflated price-point. Even if it's unlikely to disappoint those who drop the cash on it, the Phone 3 is a much harder sell than its predecessors.
Pros:
  • Unique design, Solid performance, Much improved camera
Cons:
  • Steep RRP, Glyph display is a bit disappointing, Camera is less idiot-proof than rivals

Nothing Phone (3) reviewed: a phone that stands out

Standing out is hard, but standing up isn’t. In the Phone (3), relative newcomer phone maker Nothing is trying to do both: stand up and stand out. It’s nice to see, even if it doesn’t quite pay off initially.
Pros:
  • A phone that really stands out, Operating system has enough tweaks and changes if you don't want an "ordinary" Android phone, Some interesting uses of AI, Feels like an Android made for folks thinking of changing from an iPhone, Support for AirPods/AirPods Pro (experimental), Custom camera profiles...
Cons:
  • Essential Space button is too easily to accidentally trigger, Glyph Matrix isn't as useful as Nothing thinks, Camera could be better, and sometimes feels quite slow, Priced like a flagship, but doesn't perform like one, It's a challenger, but lacks Qi2
