Nothing Phone (3A) 5G (White, 8GB RAM, 256GB Storage)

If I were to give a “grade” for videography (for its price segment), here’s how I’d rate: Aspect Rating (out of 10) Notes Main camera, daylight video ~8/10 Sharp, good detail, good stabilization in stable conditions. Telephoto zoom video ~7/10 Useful and decent, but limitations at higher zoom / lower light. Ultra-wide video ~6/10 Good for wide shots but loses detail + struggles more. Low light video ~5-6/10 OK when steady and aided by some lighting, but noise, focus, color issues show. Autofocus & stabilization while moving ~6/10 Decent, but not perfect; improvements needed. Mixed heavy usage (calls + messaging + gaming + streaming + browsing) over a full day 20-24 hours before recharge needed. � It can get through a full day even if you use it well. You won’t need to recharge midday if you’re moderate-to-heavy. Business Today +2 PCMark battery test (simulated mixed use) ~17h 40m of “work” usage until battery drops to 20%. � This is very good for a mid-range device; shows solid optimization. India TV News +1 Continuous display / active use in lab tests ~13h 32m (active use score in GSM Arena). � If you use screen heavily (video, web, etc.), this gives a realistic idea. GSMArena +1 Screen-on time in user testing (heavy gaming + social media + benchmarks) ~7 hours SOT under heavy usage. � Nothing Community Screen-on time in lighter usage (mostly browsing, social media, calls, low-intensity tasks) Up to ~9 hours SOT. � Overall Value Score (Subjective) If I were to rate it out of 10 for value for money at ₹23,299: For general users / daily use: 8.5/10 — excellent value. For gamers / camera enthusiasts: maybe 7/10 — good, but you may wish for more in certain areas. Verdict: Should You Buy at ₹23,299? Yes — if your priorities are balanced: good display, decent camera, nice design, reliable battery, and you don’t need flagship-level extremes (super fast charging, perfect ultra-wide shots, maxed-out performance under long heavy load). If your budget is tight around this number, this is one of the stronger choices. If you can stretch a bit or wait for deals, you might snag a rival that has faster charging or a stronger ultra-wide camera. But overall, for most users, this phone offers more good than compromise at around ₹23,299

Distinctive design and build — Many reviewers praise Nothing phones for having a design that stands out from typical Android phones: clean lines, a modern aesthetic, and a feel that’s more “premium” than price suggests. Clean, lightweight software experience — The software (Nothing OS) is often described as uncluttered and smooth, with minimal bloatware compared to many other phones. That makes everyday tasks snappier and gives a near-stock-Android feel. Good battery life & charging (in many models) — Several Nothing phones (especially recent ones) manage to deliver reliable battery life. Some models support fast charging, which helps for heavy use or long days. Balanced performance for mid/upper-mid segment price — For the money, they offer a balanced mix of features (display, performance, design) that make them solid general-purpose smartphones: good enough for web browsing, social apps, media, and moderate gaming.

Amazing software experience, although I felt the essential space button was kinda useless imo, Eye-catching design, Good Camera (images could be better when edited) , Nice haptic feedback, Pretty good performance, It maintained temperature while gaming so well too, while battery life is just decent (lasts for a day content watching, casual gaming etc or less than 6 hours for continuous gaming), over a great phone at this price if you are looking for a great software, design camera phone, go for it! 😀

This is the best phone I have ever used till today. Bought it on October 30th less than a week and I am loving the experience. The cameras are good. After looking at the quality I will take pictures wantedly. The OS is simply minimal and very very user friendly. More features can be added which I am sure nothing will bring down the line with software updates. I don't play any games and for normal activities there is no heating issue and even though I restricted the batter limit to 80% I am still being left with around 20-30 percent charge on daily usage of 8-9 hrs of screen time. The display quality and the touch quality are great. And coming to storage type. 3a uses UFS 2.2 while other mobiles in the same range use 3.1 u might think that it's a big difference and choose not to get nothing phone but nothing has optimised the OS and the hardware and software are so In tune that it performs better than UFS 3.1 in random daily tasks. Overall a solid investment in budget range smartphones.

This is by far the coolest phone I have ever used. Everything about this phone is just great. Whatever you will expect in a budget phone,you'll get a little extra here. Idc about the camera although it's pretty solid. Battery is great. The design is amazing. Customisation is very user friendly. Display and performance is real smooth. Worth buying.

Phone was amazing all features are good.. Size is quite large but not also heavy. Software is amazing and we can compare the difference after using nothing phone and other phone. Camera was awesome at this price range and major part of issue is battery backup, i got 6, 7hours battery backup only normal use in1st week, that was very bad. I think nothing team can improve battery backup in their updates.... Overall phone is amazing and design and speed is amazing.... Only battery backup is the issue..👌🏼👌🏼❤️

great phone, nice camera. no lag. Touch is good. Weight is good. 2 months use so far. Very slippery without a case. comes with a okayish screen protector pre-installed.
