Nothing Phone 3 Launches July 1 with Snapdragon 8 Elite, Glyph Lights Removed

The Nothing Phone 3, set to launch on July 1, is generating significant anticipation as the company prepares to introduce its first true flagship device. Leaks and teaser images reveal a transparent back design with a triple-camera setup arranged in a circular module, similar to the Nothing Phone 3a series, but notably missing the signature Glyph lighting system that characterized previous models. While early speculation suggested the Glyph interface might still be present, recent insights indicate it has likely been removed, marking a design shift for Nothing. The phone will feature an iPhone-style customizable action button alongside the power button, and it is expected to run on Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite processor with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. CEO Carl Pei has emphasized that the Phone 3 will incorporate premium materials, major performance upgrades, AI integration, and software enhancements, with a price point around £800. The company aims to balance hardware innovation with AI features that enhance user experience, setting the stage for a competitive flagship launch.
