- The Nothing Phone 3a Lite is apparently landing this year
- Leaked specs reveal possible colors, storage, and RAM
- It’s hard to see how this phone can fit in Nothing’s lineup
With the exception of the Nothing Phone 3, Nothing’s phones are all at least somewhat affordable, with most of them hovering around mid-range prices. But a new model could undercut many of these handsets, as the Nothing Phone 3a Lite is apparently on the way.
This would be the company’s first ‘Lite’ model, and as a lite version of the mid-range Nothing Phone 3a, we’d expect it to have a low-end price, undercutting the $379 / £329 / AU599 3a, though the exact pricing isn’t known yet.
Some specs have been leaked, though, with leaker and tech influencer Sudhanshu Ambhore telling XpertPick that the Nothing Phone 3a Lite will come in black and white shades, and just a single configuration: one with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
That said, the site notes that it’s possible some regions will get other configurations or colors.
Additionally, the phone will apparently launch this year and be available globally, so there’s a good chance you’ll be able to buy it.
A less capable 3a
As for what else to expect from the Phone 3a Lite, it will presumably have some things in common with the Nothing Phone 3a, a device which has a 6.77-inch 120Hz screen, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset, a 5,000mAh battery with 50W charging, a 50MP wide camera, a 50MP telephoto (with 2x optical zoom), and an 8MP ultra-wide.
We’d guess that maybe there would be one less camera on the Nothing Phone 3a Lite, but given that even the budget-friendly Nothing CMF Phone 2 Pro has three rear cameras, we’re not at all sure of that.
Indeed, it might be hard for Nothing to truly differentiate this phone from the handsets it already sells, since the CMF Phone 2 Pro is in many ways already a Nothing Phone 3a Lite – with similar specs to the 3a, just a less powerful chipset, fewer megapixels for its selfie camera, and slower charging.
So, it will be interesting to see exactly what the Nothing Phone 3a Lite offers if and when it launches, as right now, it’s hard to see the point of this phone.
