As its first real flagship, Nothing announced the Nothing Phone (3) yesterday, promising seven years of security patches and five years of operating system upgrades. However, the Nothing Phone (3) runs Nothing OS 3.5, which is based on Android 15, even though Google has released Android 16 in a stable version. Nothing has disclosed the timeline for the distribution of Android 16 for its handsets, but it has not given a precise release date.
Carl Pei, the founder and CEO of Nothing, stated during yesterday’s unveiling that Nothing OS 4.0, which is built on top of Android 16, will be available “later this autumn.” It’s safe to assume that the Nothing Phone (3) will get Nothing OS 4.0 first, with earlier variants receiving the update later.
Pre-orders for the Nothing Phone (3) will open on July 4 and sales will commence on July 15. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 SoC, a 6.67″ 120Hz 1,260p OLED screen, four 50MP cameras, and a 5,150 mAh battery (or 5,500 mAh in India) are the main features of the Phone (3).
