There will be two new smartphones at Nothing’s March 4 event, according to a report by Android Headlines. While no source is provided, the information falls somewhat in line with what we’d already heard, apart from a big change in the way Nothing names its phones. Apparently, the Nothing Phone 3a will be joined by a Nothing Phone 3a Pro.
Previously, Nothing named the larger of its two A-series phones the Nothing Phone 2a Plus, but this may have been dropped for the new range. The report also seems to indicate it will only launch these two devices, making us wonder what has happened to the regular Nothing Phone 3. The A-series phones are the more budget-friendly devices in its range, making their appearance before the flagship Phone 3 an unusual strategy.
There will be two colors for each phone available. The Phone 3a will come in black and white, while the 3a Pro will come in black and grey, which corresponds to colors Nothing has used in the past. The Phone 3a Pro will have 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage space, as will the Phone 3a, but the standard model will also be available with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage space. It’s possible Nothing won’t sell the basic model globally, and restrict it to certain markets.
Elsewhere, an image of what’s said to be the back of the Nothing Phone 3a has leaked. The device is hidden inside a protective plastic case, the type many manufacturers use to disguise the true design of an unreleased device, but it exposes the cameras at the top of the phone. The design matches expectations the phone will have a third telephoto camera on the back, joining the main and wide-angle camera. The layout also aligns with the teaser Nothing posted to social media, showing a vertically stacked triple-camera setup.
