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.
| Color | Thickness | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Dark Grey | 14.4mm | 51.9g |
| Light Grey | 15.2mm | 51.0g |
| Orange | 14.5mm | 52.4g |
Features for Fitness and Connectivity
The Watch 3 Pro supports 131 sports modes, including HIIT, yoga, and more. It can automatically detect workouts and guide users through warm-up exercises using 3D animations.
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.
Price and Availability
The CMF Watch 3 Pro is priced at $99 / £99 / €99, but is currently available for a discounted price of $79 in the US. However, it is not yet available in India, and there’s no listing on Flipkart at the moment.
You can check for updates and buy the watch from the official website: nothing.tech
