Nothing Phone (3) leaks ahead of launch: Is the gyph interface dead?

The Nothing Phone (3) is expected to be launched in India on July 1, 2025, after a gap of nearly two years since its previous flagship, the Nothing Phone (2). 

 

Nothing has been teasing the phone for a while, but thanks to tipster Max Jambor (@MaxJmb), the internet has finally gotten a good look at what is to be expected from the UK-based company.

 

If the leaks are to be believed, the new version will feature three 50-megapixel sensors placed asymmetrically—a main, an ultrawide and a telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. 

 

The phone will likely be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Chip due to the company’s founder, Carl Pei, announcing that the phone will mark the company’s debut in the flagship category.

 

Interestingly, the company had previously announced that they would be killing the glyph-style interface through a short clip. This is further confirmed in the leaked image where the LED setup is absent, which was one of the first things that interested users towards the brand for its unique design approach.

 

However, the phone still stays consistent with the brand’s design approach, featuring a semi-transparent design, similar to other Nothing phones. Nothing has also teased a dot matrix style design on the back of the phone, which could be replacing the glyph interface, signalling a slight shift in the design language in the Nothing Phone series.

 

The base model of the phone might be priced around $799 (around ₹ 68,000), while the 16GB + 512GB variant of the phone could be around $899 (around ₹77,000). 

 

However, with the company’s past trend of pricing its products less in India, due to Indian consumers generally being more budget-conscious, the phones could be priced at ₹60,000 and ₹70,000, respectively, in the Indian Market.

 

Nothing is also expected to launch its first over-head headphones, the Nothing Headphone 1 along with the Nothing Phone (3).
