So the rumors were true after all. Nothing has officially confirmed the launch of its next smartphone, the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite, and it’s arriving very soon on October 29, just two days from now.
Unlike most Nothing launches that come with weeks of cryptic teasers and marketing buzz, this one’s happening almost instantly. The first teaser dropped today, and the phone will hit the stage on Wednesday. A bit surprising to come from Nothing.
Still, it aligns with earlier leaks, which revealed that the device’s first sale could begin on November 4.
What to expect from the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite
The Phone (3a) Lite will reportedly be offered in a single variant with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, and will be available in the brand’s signature black and white color options.
Under the hood, the device is said to be powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300 chipset, featuring four Cortex-A78 cores clocked at 2.5GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores at 2GHz, paired with a Mali-G615 GPU.
The device has appeared on Geekbench running Android 15, but it could launch with Android 16 instead, as Nothing has now begun rolling out Android 16 to existing Phone (3a) users.
As for pricing, the phone is expected to cost €249.99 (around $290) in France, with some European markets possibly getting it for as low as €239.99. For comparison, the regular Phone (3a) starts at €349.99.
There’s no word yet on whether the trademark Glyph Interface or Nothing’s minimalist design will see changes. But given the company’s track record, we can expect the same transparent aesthetic. The teaser shows a blinking light on the back, though.
