Nothing Phone (3a) Launching on March 4 with a Dedicated Camera Button
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. Later, Nothing officially confirmed the triple-camera design, along with slight changes to the Glyph LED lights on the back. However, the complete rear design of the phone has yet to be revealed.
With the launch just around the corner, more details are expected to surface soon.
Just a day after the Pixel 10’s color options were leaked, the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL have now been shown in all their colors too.
The Pixel 10 Pro will reportedly come in four color options:
- Obsidian (a dark gray/black),
- Porcelain (white),
- Moonstone (a slate blue-gray),
- Jade (a soft pistachio green with gold accents).
These names follow Google’s usual style of using creative names for color variants.
Interestingly, the Pixel 10 Pro XL will be available in the exact same four colors. While some fans were hoping for a unique shade exclusive to the larger model, Google has decided to keep the options consistent across both Pro versions.
The Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to have a 5,200 mAh battery which is the biggest ever in a Pixel phone. Both Pro models will come with telephoto cameras, macro photography support, and run on Google’s new Tensor G5 chipset, made by TSMC.
The entire Pixel 10 series is set to launch officially on August 20.
Nothing recently launched its Phone (3), which the company says is its first true flagship device. But now, new rumors suggest that Nothing may be planning to expand its smartphone lineup even further.
According to a well-known Indian leaker on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the company might be working on new models under the “Lite” or “T” series. The leaker claims that “Pro models are just not cutting it,” hinting that Nothing might be looking for a new direction.
It’s not completely clear which models the leaker is referring to. Recently, the only Pro version from Nothing was the Phone (3a) Pro which is a mid-range phone with better specs than the regular Phone (3a).
At this time, no detailed information has been shared about the possible Lite or T models. For example, it’s unclear whether Nothing will release a Phone (3) Lite, a Phone (3a) Lite, or both. Each could target different types of users depending on price and features.
If the rumor is true, more leaks and official updates from Nothing may follow soon. Until then, users can check out the company’s current flagship that is the Nothing Phone (3) which is already available.
Nothing sub-brand CMF by Nothing has officially launched the new CMF Watch 3 Pro, which comes with several upgrades over the previous model, including a larger screen, improved battery life, and unfortunately, a higher price.
Bigger and Brighter Display
The Watch 3 Pro features a 1.43-inch AMOLED display, which is slightly larger than the 1.32-inch screen on the older model. It’s also a bit brighter, reaching 650 nits, and offers a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels with a 60Hz refresh rate. Users can choose from over 120 watch faces, including animated and interactive ones. Some of these are specially designed for the Always-On Display (AOD) mode.
Better Battery Life
This new smartwatch packs a 350mAh battery, which can last up to 13 days in normal use (without AOD) and about 3.5 days with AOD enabled. A full charge takes around 99 minutes. In comparison, the older model had a smaller 305mAh battery with up to 11 days of usage.
Stylish Build and Colors
The CMF Watch 3 Pro comes with a metal body and soft silicone straps. It’s available in three colors: Dark Grey, Light Grey, and Orange. Each variant has slight differences in weight and thickness due to the bezel design, but the bezel is fixed and can’t be changed — only the straps are removable.

|---|---|---|
| Dark Grey | 14.4mm | 51.9g |
| Light Grey | 15.2mm | 51.0g |
| Orange | 14.5mm | 52.4g |

For outdoor use, it offers dual-band GPS (L1 + L5) and supports multiple satellite systems like GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS. The watch is also IP68 rated, meaning it’s water and dust resistant (but not suitable for swimming).
Smart Features
The watch allows Bluetooth calling with two microphones, a speaker, and AI noise reduction. It also supports gesture controls like flipping or double-shaking the wrist to perform actions.
In a unique addition, ChatGPT is built into the watch to answer questions and offer help, including a running coach feature. Users can record voice notes that are automatically transcribed, and the Essential News feature can read out the latest headlines.
