Nothing’s Phone 3 Really Goes Full-On Anti-iPhone, Huh?

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-16 17:25:41

After a seemingly never-ending drip of leaks and teases, Nothing’s Phone 3 is finally here, along with what’s shaping up to be a divisive new aesthetic. The eye-catching Android phone, which was unveiled during a London launch event on Tuesday, will cost $799 and is being billed as the company’s “first true flagship.” To sell its premium package, Nothing is leaning into a new triple camera system, a refreshed design, and a circular Glyph “Matrix” display that, honestly, looks pretty damn fun.

I Finally Tried the Nothing Phone 3 and There's a Lot I Like

After months of rumors and teases, the Nothing Phone 3 has finally been unveiled at a Tuesday launch event in London. Nothing is calling the phone its "first true flagship" and with good reason; the Phone 3 has higher specs and other quirky new features (like the Glyph Matrix) that set it apart from its cheaper siblings. I got to spend some time using the phone at the launch and while it was only a quick look, I'm already quite impressed. The Nothing Phone 3 will go on sale next week in the US

When the very first Nothing phone landed — the Nothing Phone 1 in 2022 — it was a breath of fresh air in an increasingly stale smartphone market. Not only did the Nothing Phone 1 look different from every other phone available at the time, but it offered some pretty stellar specs at a relatively low price. Sure, its cameras were pretty weak and Nothing OS was still finding its footing, but it was a solid opening move for a brand new company. Since then, we’ve had many other Nothing Phones — fiv

Nothing Headphone 1 Review: Not AirPods Max In the Best Way Possible

2025 What do you want out of a pair of over-ear headphones? No, really. Like, what do you want? I don’t mean that as a challenge; I mean that as a threat. Personal audio is a serious thing, and you need to make a sound choice when you’re picking a device that protects you from the horrors of other people’s talking, other people’s music, or other people, generally speaking.

Like a modern version of the tree-falling-in-the-woods conundrum, AI is giving us new philosophical questions. For example, if AI music sounds genuine, is it okay to enjoy it? This debate has gained momentum recently, as a new band called The Velvet Sundown just reached over 500,000 listens on Spotify. The problem is that they don’t actually exist. Everything about them — from their echoey, classic rock-inspired tracks to their Instagram pictures — appears to be AI-generated. I’ve been listeni
