Just ahead of its July 1 reveal, fresh official-looking renders of the Nothing Phone 3 have surfaced, offering a clear preview of its revamped design. Maintaining its signature semi-transparent aesthetic, the phone blends design elements from both the Phone 3a and Phone 3a Pro models—but with a striking new twist.
In this view, you can clearly see the oddball triple-camera layout: two lenses aligned one way, the third positioned off-kilter at the top. It’s a design bold enough to spark conversation.

The see-through back subtly exposes internal components without being overly flashy. Gone, however, is the classic Glyph Interface—no more hefty LED strips lighting up behind the panel (9to5google.com, androidheadlines.com, los40.com). Instead, there’s a compact Glyph Matrix: a small LED array in the upper-right behind the glass, ready to display animations, notifications, and charge progress (los40.com).
Color options appear to include white, black (or dark gray), and a muted blue . These hues align with the brand’s minimalist, modern vibe.
Spec Highlights (confirmed or strongly rumored)
The upcoming Nothing Phone 3 is shaping up to be the brand’s first true flagship, stepping up from its mid-range predecessors (9to5google.com, los40.com).
-
Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 — a powerful, though slightly lower-tier, flagship chip compared to the Snapdragon 8 Elite (androidheadlines.com).
-
Cameras: Triple 50 MP array, including a confirmed 50 MP periscope telephoto lens and likely matching main and ultrawide sensors (androidheadlines.com).
-
Display: Generous 6.7″ LTPO OLED screen with FHD+ resolution, smooth 120 Hz refresh, and up to 3,000 nits peak brightness (los40.com).

The redesign marks a departure from Nothing’s trademark Glyph lights, replaced by the subtler Glyph Matrix LED as part of a cleaner, more mature aesthetic. The misaligned triple camera and transparent interior give it a bold, almost playful character—while underneath, genuine flagship-category performance is expected.
Get ready: the Phone 3 will debut globally on July 1, alongside Nothing’s first over-ear headphones (los40.com). Pre-release buzz suggests a US price around $800 (about €800 in Europe) (9to5google.com).
