Nothing Phone (3) Gets 20x AI SuperRes Zoom, Glyph Matrix Photo & More in August Update

Nothing has officially rolled out the Nothing OS 3.5 August update for the Nothing Phone (3). This latest update, sized at 189 MB, brings several new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements. Most importantly, it also includes the August 2025 Android security patch, ensuring the device stays protected with the latest security enhancements.

One of the main highlights of this update is the improvement to the Glyph Interface. Now, when you use the Glyph Mirror toy to capture a photo, a special Glyph Matrix-styled photo will also be saved. The company has also fixed an issue where ringtones would automatically switch to “Classic” in Generative mode. Additionally, bugs related to ringtone mode selection after phone data transfers and incorrect response to Telegram calls on the Glyph Interface have also been resolved.

On the camera front, the update adds support for AI SuperRes Zoom, now working between 20x and 30x zoom levels. The shutter response time after taking multiple shots has been improved, along with better autofocus and color accuracy, making your photography experience even smoother.

Apart from that, the update focuses on fixing several system bugs and improving the user experience. Some of the key fixes include the missing default search engine option in the app drawer and settings, and an issue in Universal Search where the second character would disappear. The Essential Notification border UI has been polished, and the cloned WhatsApp app can now open PDF files properly.

The update also improves the Snapchat refresh rate, ensuring smoother usage. Issues with 4K 60FPS video playback stuttering in the gallery have been resolved. The Adaptive Brightness now works more smoothly, and charging problems with certain third-party chargers have been fixed. In addition, system copywriting has been refined, and overall stability and performance have been improved.

This is a meaningful update for Nothing Phone (3) users, offering both functional upgrades and important security enhancements. Users are encouraged to download and install the update to enjoy a smoother, more secure experience.
