Nothing, the UK-based smartphone brand is all set to launch its new generation premium as well as mid-range series smartphones. While we are hearing rumours surrounding the flagship Nothing Phone 3, the popular “a” series model has also started to make turns on the internet.

With the new generation of mid-rangers, Nothing is expected to make a big switch from MediaTek to Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, offering a new overall experience to the users. Here’s everything we know about the new upcoming Phone 3a and Phone 3a Plus.

Reportedly, the IMEI database revealed the Nothing Phone 3a and Phone 3a Plus will be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC instead of a MediaTek SoC like its predecessor. It was showcased that the smartphone achieved 1119 points in single-core and 3128 points in multi-core tests.
Apart from performance, the Phone 3a Phone 3a Plus is also likely to get telephoto or periscope zoom lenses, making it the first “a” series smartphone to have a dedicated zoom lens. However, the predecessor was launched with a dual camera setup consisting of a main and an ultrawide camera. Therefore, if it plans to include a zoom lens, then we may see a triple camera setup, offering a new design. Alongside these major upgrades, the Nothing Phona 3a and Phone 3a Plus are expected to get eSIM support and a physical nano-SIM, providing users with greater flexibility.
