Nothing Phone (3a) 256 GB - mobile phone with 50 MP front camera, 30x ultra zoom, 50W fast charging and 6.77" FHD+ flexible AMOLED display - White

Great phone, works well. Really nice screen. Packed with Ai treats. Phone calls clear and precise. The white colour looks really good. Fingerprint recognition works really well, no complaints. Battery life is excellent. Worth the money. Recommend this product.

An amazing phone. Moved from apple to this and wish I had done it years ago. I can't fault it after having it for two weeks. The camera is good, the screen is lovely and responsive, and the battery lasts a day and a half with quite heavy use. It also charges a lot faster than my old iPhone 12. The glyph lights are also surprisingly useful. Overall, I'm not sure why you need a more expensive phone.

I've always been intrigued by Nothing and now I have one I couldn't be more pleased. For the price it's fantastic phone smooth and elegant. The heft is nice and it is really premium. The glyph though is nice, though the be honest after a while you hardly noticed it. Camera isn't bad and with some tweaking the pictures can come out really great

Summary This is the best phone to get under £400, and even beats phones outside of its price bracket (looking at you iPhone SE!). This is the coolest phone I’ve ever used, and I would happily use it if I wasn’t already using a flagship phone. Nothing - please make a flagship version of this phone that looks the exact same! Build Quality This is the coolest looking phone I’ve ever held! The back of the phone is an eye catcher, and the display isn’t too bad either. Picture is clear and colours are punchy and accurate. Refresh rate is a smooth 120hz, and it didn’t dip at all in my experience. Performance Despite having a mid range processor, this phone is smooth in day to day operation. I didn’t have any hiccups even when installing all my apps on first set up. The phone didn’t even get hot! Only place it did lag a bit was processing multiple photos at once. Battery I didnt use this phone a whole lot to get an extensive idea of what battery life is like, but it came out of the box with 55% at 11am, now it’s 5PM and after setting up the phone, taking photos, listening to music and browsing TikTok it’s on 40%. That’s really impressive in my mind! Only downside here is that it doesn’t have wireless charging. Sound quality The speakers on this are insanely good - why has no one mentioned this in reviews before? IMO it sounded better than my iPhone 15 pro max Cameras The cameras are really, really good for a mid range phone. I wish the ultra wide was a higher megapixel and the zoom was a bit more but otherwise I was REALLY happy with the photos that came out of this!

Purchased to replace a nothing phone 1 as the security updates were ending. Excellent display, long battery life, very customisable without the need to download things from Google play, good amount of storage and feels and looks really nice. If you don't want to be like most other people and own a Samsung this is a very good alternative. I was lucky and saved almost 100 pounds as it was on offer and cheaper than the 3a non pro version. If not on offer l would not have spent the extra to get a better camera , and been just as happy with the 3a version. There is 6 years security updates from nothing so no worries for a while. The battery is replaceable which is good to know. The phone is not lightweight and feels solid. If you are not a fan of flashing glyph lights they can be turned off. I personally do not find any faults with this phone.

Great phone . Holds it's own within the mid range market. The camera is great and I have had no issues with any pictures I have taken or videos. Does not lag in any way , is very responsive and the latest update adds a whole load of new customisation which gives it all a very fresh experience. The display is very clear , great for viewing movies or social media shorts.

I rarely review items, but this phone has surpassed my expectations. I'm coming from a OnePlus 7t Pro which was top of the line 6 years ago, but now a geriatric case needing lunchtime and evening top-up charges just to make it through the day. The Nothing 3a is a breath of fresh air. I use my phone, a lot. I work in IT so it's constantly on the go. I'm currently on 33% battery and last charged 36hrs ago. Camera is great, phone is quick, and easy to use. Knockout feature for me is the essential space app, I took a picture of some handwritten notes, it transcribed and summarised them, then added appointment to my calendar. It's a massive timesaver. Downside is now my wife wants one.

I'm not usually one to review products on Amazon but I felt the need to review this one! When I bought this admittedly all I was expecting was a cheap budget phone that would work as a backup phone and not be that good otherwise. What I got was SO much more than that! First off, the build quality is outstanding??? I used without a case until my case arrived and it feels so nice to the touch and like it'll last a long while! My only gripe is the lack of cases, since you can only really get one that's black or transparent. The transparent cases show how great the design is at the back though, which I'd consider worth it since the phone itself looks so cool! As for the OS - I had many cheap Samsung phones back in the day (+1 flagship being the Galaxy S5 lol), so I would say I'm quite familiar with the Android interface. There's no bloatware installed, just a few Google apps which is expected. I really do appreciate not having apps preinstalled like Samsung Health, which I'll never use (sorry Samsung). I still prefer iOS admittedly because it looks so simple yet modern, but the NothingOS is a very close contender! I also love the monochromatic theme, and as always with Androids, I do appreciate the fact you can do so much more with the OS than you can with iOS - since I'm not one for jailbreaking phones. The camera is awesome for the price of this phone too - I even consider it better than the one on the iPhone 16 I was using as my main phone. Obviously don't expect better than the iPhone 17 range (I can't comment on the Galaxy S25 range since I haven't tested any), but this is competent enough at rivaling flagships over the last few years, which really does give it bang for your buck. I haven't tested the sound quality in full yet, but from what I've heard so far it's pretty good! I use headphones most of the time anyway, so even if it wasn't great it wouldn't be a dealbreaker personally! Speed of the phone is really impressive, which I was NOT expecting for the phone of this price! While it won't run high intensity games like Genshin Impact on the highest settings smoothly, it is perfectly capable of doing everything you would need to do on a phone + gaming on settings that aren't the highest ones. Overall this is way more than I can ask for, and it rivals literally every phone I've had for £300-ish - probably would even rival one of the "budget" iPhones like the SE 3rd gen or the 16e, though I haven't used either to tell. Honourable mentions - the Glyph interface is super cool, it's not really a need but it's a welcome addition! I love how the lights at the back light up when you recieve a notification or a call, and the Glyph timer is so cool I might as well always use it to make timers. Also, this phone has both Face ID and a fingerprint reader, which is quite nice as someone who misses the iPhone fingerprint readers after they disappeared years ago with the home button. It works pretty well, I just wish Face ID worked for biometrics on more apps, but oh well - it's not an issue at all! I'm more than happy to give this phone a stellar 10/10 rating for it's price range, it does so much more than I ever thought it would. It even made my fiancé insanely jealous, and that's saying something! He's already agreed to buy one for himself when his current phone eventually dies (which admittedly is quite soon since he's had it for years). It's also worth noting I got this phone for £90 less than the RRP of £329 - and for £239 I could not ask for more, I reckon I'd even be happy to pay £500 for a phone this good!
