Nothing Phone (3a) Series new update

Nothing has released a new software update for its Nothing Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, bringing a range of improvements, new features, and bug fixes. The update has a size of 96.60 MB and aims to enhance the overall user experience, particularly in the camera department and system performance.

New Feature: Essential Key Integration with Camera

One of the key additions in this update is the integration of the Essential Key with the camera app. This feature allows users to interact with the camera more efficiently:

  • A short press of the Essential Key lets users add notes directly.

This update makes the Essential Key more useful, especially for those who frequently take notes or record voice memos on the go.

Camera Enhancements for Better Photography

The new update focuses heavily on improving the camera performance of both Nothing Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro. Several enhancements have been made to deliver a better photography experience:

  • More intuitive camera zoom interaction – Zooming is now smoother and more responsive.
  • Fix for reddish skin tones in selfies – The front-facing camera now captures more natural skin tones.
  • Enhanced white balance for indoor photography – Colors in indoor shots will now look more accurate and balanced.
  • Improved clarity in portrait shots under backlight – Portrait photos taken in strong backlight conditions will have better detail and tone.
  • Better focus accuracy at 2x zoom – This improvement is available only for Phone (3a) Pro, ensuring sharper and clearer images at 2x focal length.
  • Faster overall camera performance – The camera app now responds quicker, making it easier to capture moments without lag.

These improvements aim to provide better image quality and a smoother camera experience, making the Nothing Phone (3a) series more reliable for photography.

Other System Improvements

Apart from camera upgrades, the update also includes refinements to system performance and user experience. Some of the key enhancements include:

  • Optimized Essential Space – The Essential Space feature has been improved for smoother performance and better usability.
  • Improved Always-On Display (AOD) animations – The transitions between different AOD states are now more fluid and visually appealing.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements – The update also includes various fixes to enhance overall system stability and reduce crashes or glitches.

Final Thoughts

With this update, Nothing continues to refine the Phone (3a) and (3a) Pro, delivering a better camera experience, improved usability, and system optimizations. If you own either of these devices, it’s recommended to install the update as soon as possible to enjoy the latest improvements.

Essential Space App v1.0.12

Nothing has released a new update (v1.0.12) for its Essential Space app, bringing two exciting sharing features to select Nothing phones. The update is currently available via the Play Store for Nothing Phone 3A, 3A Pro, and CMF Phone 2 Pro.

What’s New in the Update?

The update (around 94MB in size) focuses mainly on improving sharing options within the app:

  1. Audio Recording Sharing Enabled
    Users can now record audio using the “Flip to Record” feature and directly share those recordings with others. Previously, Essential Space only supported sharing images, PDFs, and Markdown files. The new update now supports audio file sharing in AAC format.
  2. Image Capture with Smart Text Summary
    Users can capture images using the Essential key in the camera app, and the app uses AI to summarize what’s in the image. For example, if a photo includes a Nothing phone and white earbuds, the app automatically generates a description. This summarized image can then be shared along with the AI-generated text.

UI & Functionality

While the user interface hasn’t seen major changes, the new features add a practical edge to the app. The shared content even includes Nothing branding and a “Your Second Memory” tag, enhancing the brand’s unique style.

Supported Devices

These features are currently live on:

  • Nothing Phone 3A
  • Nothing Phone 3A Pro
  • CMF Phone 2 Pro
  • Nothing Phone 3

Make sure your Essential Space app is updated to version 1.0.12 to access these features.

N Dial Nimbus Update

The popular third-party dialer app N Dial, inspired by the clean design of Nothing OS, has received a major update called the Nimbus Update. This update brings a completely new user interface, smoother animations, and several practical improvements that enhance the overall calling experience on Android smartphones.

One of the biggest highlights of the update is the redesigned interface for Recents, Dialpad, Contacts, Favorites, and Contact Cards. Everything now looks more modern and minimal, matching the style seen on Nothing Phones. A new light theme called Nimbus has also been added, giving users a clean and bright look. Additionally, the navigation bar has been improved for better usability.

N Dial Nimbus Update Dialpad

The app now includes haptic feedback when scrolling through contacts or using the dialpad, giving a more responsive feel. Users can also view and delete individual call entries for each contact, making call history management more flexible. Contact photos are now supported, and a new Albums View has been added in the Favorites section, alongside the classic grid layout.

To improve performance, N Dial now allows users to set a limit on call logs. Incoming calls no longer appear as pop-ups but are shown in the notification panel, providing a less distracting experience. The update also introduces features like quick notes during ongoing calls and external links for additional functionality.

In terms of technical improvements, the app’s animations are smoother, and overall performance has been boosted. Important bugs have been fixed, including issues with the proximity sensor and Bluetooth connections with smartwatches. The quality of contact images has also been enhanced.

N Dial is available for all Android smartphones, not just Nothing devices. It aims to provide a smooth, beautiful, and easy-to-use calling experience. Users can download the updated version from the Google Play Store, making sure the version name includes “Nimbus.”

Overall, the Nimbus Update brings major upgrades to N Dial, both in looks and performance. If you’re looking for a dialer that feels modern, simple, and closer to the Nothing Phone experience, this is a great option to try.

Nothing Phone (3) Listed at Huge Discount on Amazon, But There’s a Catch!

Published

Nothing Phone 3 Price Drop on Amazon

The Nothing Phone (3) was launched about a month ago with a starting price of around Rs 80,000. But recently, people have noticed listings on Amazon showing the phone for as low as Rs 56,500. This huge price drop of almost Rs 24,000 is raising questions—is this offer real or a scam?

Currently, Nothing has not officially announced any price drop. However, they are running bank offers on Flipkart, which can reduce the price by up to Rs 10,000. Even with these offers, the phone still sells for around Rs 70,000.

So, where did this Rs 56,500 price come from?

When you search for the Nothing Phone (3) on Amazon, you will see some listings showing the 12GB + 256GB variant at Rs 56,500. But if you look closely, these phones are not sold directly by Amazon or by Nothing, but by third-party sellers like “BeautyVerse” and “Jai Ram Wholesale”.

Nothing Phone 3 Price drop on Amazon

Although Amazon will ship the product, the sellers are unknown and could be selling used, open-box, or even fake units. In fact, Nothing does not sell any of its products officially on Amazon India. Their official partners are Flipkart, Croma, Vijay Sales, and select offline stores.

If you’re planning to buy the Nothing Phone (3), it’s better to wait for the Big Billion Days sale, where you might get an official price drop. Right now, you can get the phone for about Rs 70,000 with card discounts, or even lower if you exchange your old phone. For example, if you exchange a Nothing Phone (2) in flawless condition, you could get the Phone (3) for as low as Rs 45,000.

Final Advice:

Do not trust listings on Amazon for Nothing phones. These are not official and may be risky. Always buy from trusted and official sellers to avoid scams or fake products.
