Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is wrapping up, and the Nothing Phone (3) has dropped to $599 (originally $799) for the 12GB RAM and 256GB model. According to price trackers , that’s the lowest price the phone has reached so far. This is Nothing’s most ambitious phone yet (according to this PCMag review ), and it shows in how it tries to compete directly with flagship devices while still doing its own thing.
The design, as noted in our own review of the Nothing (3) , is what draws you in first. The transparent back is back again, now paired with a Glyph Matrix that uses 489 tiny LEDs to light up for calls, timers, and a few playful extras. It’s a neat idea, and you’ll probably play around with it at the start, but there’s a good chance it fades into the background once the novelty wears off.
Beyond that, the phone feels well put together. It uses recycled aluminum, Gorilla Glass 7i, and has an IP68 rating, so it’s built to handle everyday spills and dust without much worry. It has a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen that looks sharp and gets bright enough for outdoor use, and a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate that keeps everything smooth when you’re scrolling or watching videos.
The cameras, too, feel more consistent than before, with natural-looking photos across all three lenses instead of overly processed shots. It also has a battery life that comfortably lasts a full day, and fast charging support means you can top it up quickly when needed. In everyday use, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 keeps things feeling smooth without much effort.
Apps open quickly, switching between tasks is easy, and even heavier games like Genshin Impact run without noticeable slowdowns. That said, the major downside of the Nothing Phone (3) is that it skips many of the AI-heavy features competitors are pushing, so it may feel limited if you care about cutting-edge extras.
