Nothing seems set to wrap up 2025 with another smartphone release. Fresh leaks suggest that the Nothing Phone 3a Lite could make its debut in early November, possibly on November 4. The device is expected to launch globally soon after, including in markets like India, and will likely be the company’s most affordable phone this year.
The Nothing Phone 3a Lite is said to be a toned-down version of the Phone 3a, which was launched earlier in 2025. It is expected to carry forward the same clean, flat-edged design and minimalist look but with some hardware adjustments to lower the cost.
According to reports, the phone may feature a 6.77-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 5 protection. Powering the device could be the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset, paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. This combination positions it squarely in the mid-range category, offering decent performance and power efficiency. The phone is expected to run on Nothing OS 3.5 based on Android 15.
For cameras, leaks point to a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultrawide lens at the back, along with a 32MP front camera for selfies. A 5,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support is likely to power the device.
Unlike the higher-end “a” and “Pro” models, the Nothing Phone 3a Lite may either exclude or limit the Glyph LED interface, the brand’s trademark lighting feature. The phone is expected to come in black and white colour options, retaining the brand’s signature transparent design style. It may also offer IP64 certification for dust and splash resistance.
In Europe, the Nothing Phone 3a Lite is expected to launch at around €249.99, which roughly translates to ₹22,000 to ₹24,000 in India. This pricing would make it more affordable than the Phone 3a while still sitting above the CMF Phone 2 Pro in Nothing’s lineup.
If these reports prove accurate, the Nothing Phone 3a Lite could bring the company’s distinctive transparent design and user experience to a broader audience. A November launch would also help Nothing finish 2025 with a complete smartphone lineup across multiple price points.
