London-based tech brand Nothing has announced that its upcoming Nothing Phone (3a) series will be manufactured in India. The company aims to support India’s growing manufacturing industry, invest in the local economy, and drive innovation.
Earlier, Nothing also made its Phone (1), Phone (2), and Phone (2a) in India at a Tamil Nadu factory. The new Phone (3a) Series will be produced in Chennai, where the factory employs over 500 people, with 95% of them being women. This facility plays a big role in producing Nothing’s latest smartphones.
Nothing’s Growth in India
Nothing is growing fast in the Indian smartphone market. According to Counterpoint Research, the company saw an impressive 577% growth in 2024. This success is mainly due to the Phone (2a) series and its budget-friendly sub-brand CMF by Nothing. The company also recently announced that it has crossed $1 billion in lifetime revenue since launching in October 2020.
Better After-Sales Support & Retail Expansion
To improve customer service, Nothing is expanding its after-sales support in India. It now has five exclusive service centers and a larger network of partner service locations. The company has also expanded its retail presence from 2,000 to 7,000 stores across India.
Nothing Phone (3a) Launch Details
The Nothing Phone (3a) Series is designed in London but will be made in India. The company has already teased the transparent design of the new phone. The official launch is set for March 4th, 2024.
Nothing is all set to launch its highly-anticipated Phone (3a) on March 4. The company has been teasing the phone, and the latest reveal confirms an exciting new feature—a dedicated camera button on the side. This button will allow users to quickly open the camera app and also function as a shutter button for taking photos and videos.
Improved Camera Performance
The Nothing Phone (3a) is expected to focus heavily on camera performance. It will come with a triple-camera setup, including a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom—a first for the brand. Alongside the telephoto lens, the phone will feature a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultrawide sensor, promising improved photography capabilities.
Expected Specifications
Rumors suggest that the Phone (3a) will have a 6.8-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate for a smooth viewing experience. It is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset and pack a 5,000 mAh battery with 45W fast charging support.
Leaked and Official Reveals
Recently, a leaked image showed the Nothing Phone (3a) with a protective case applied. While the full design remains a mystery, the new triple-camera setup was clearly visible.
