About This Video

Nothing clearly isn’t done for 2025, because they’ve just dropped another phone: the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite. In this video I give you the full lowdown on what’s basically the entry-level ticket into the Phone 3 lineup, landing around $290–$330 depending on your region. I’ve got the black model, but there’s a white one too—and honestly, it looks a bit nicer. You still get that transparent Nothing design, but the Glyph Interface is super minimal now: it’s literally just a single dot that lights up for notifications and calls. Software-wise, it ships with Nothing OS 3.5 out of the box (not the full 4.0 update yet), and there’s a new feature I actually like: sharing widgets with friends who also have a Nothing phone, like syncing a photos widget. I also cover the stuff people worry about—yes, there are a few pre-installed apps (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok), but you can uninstall all of them. And the lock screen “ads” speculation is kinda true via a feature called Lock Glimpse, but you can turn it off. Hardware is solid for the price: it’s bigger, thinner, and lighter than the more expensive Phone 3, with a 120Hz AMOLED (lower res and not as bright), an Essential Key, triple cameras, a Dimensity 7300 Pro with 8GB RAM, a 5,000mAh battery with 33W charging, and IP54. The biggest downside? It’s not launching in North America.
