Nothing Phone (3) Surprises With RM3,299 Starting Price; Pre-orders Begin 12 July
The Nothing Phone (3) has finally landed on our shores, just over a week after its global unveiling. As advertised on its official Malaysia website, the Phone (3) is offered in two configurations: a 12GB/256GB model priced at RM3,299 and a 16GB/512GB model going for RM3,799.
Pre-orders for the Phone (3) begin on 12 July at nothing.tech, with complimentary gifts including the Ear (a), a 1-year extended warranty, and a Nothing-branded tote bag, cap, and lanyard.
Open sales for the phone start on 1 August 2025, and it will be available off the shelves at selected retailers including DirectD, TMT, Urban Republic, and Vivid Concepts. Alternatively, telco operators U Mobile and Yes 5G are also offering the phones with selected plans.
Prior to the open sales, a limited number of Phone (3) units will be available at CROSSOVER Sunway Pyramid on 19 July, starting from 11 AM – on a first-come, first-served basis. Customers will have the chance to own the Phone (3) with a free storage upgrade and complimentary gifts, including the Nothing Ear, a 1-year extended warranty, a Nothing cap, and a lanyard.
Nothing Phone (3) specs
To recap, the Nothing Phone (3) arrives with an overhauled design compared to its predecessor, the Phone (2). The iconic Glyph LED strips have been done away with. In their place is a Glyph Matrix circular display at the top right of the rear panel, which relays information in dot matrix format. These include essential notifications, volume levels, battery levels, a compass, digital clocks, and more tools — or what Nothing calls ‘Glyph Toys’. The rear panel also features a clickable button that cycles through these toys.
Glyph aside, the Phone (3) is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 — not the flagship powerhouse 8 Gen 3 Elite that many expected, especially after learning the phone costs £800. The Phone (3) sports a 6.67″ AMOLED panel with a 1260×2800 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 4,500 nits peak brightness — all protected by Gorilla Glass 7i.
For cameras, it has a triple 50MP array consisting of a main camera, a periscope lens, and an ultra-wide lens. On the front is a 50MP selfie shooter.
Powering the phone is a 5,150mAh battery supporting 65W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. Nothing also retains the Essential Key button, which gives direct access to the Essential Space app.
Nothing has confirmed that the Phone (3) will ship with Nothing OS 3.5, along with five years of Android updates and seven years of security patches.
