In fact, for under $500, this is arguably the best phone available, especially for those who value a unique design, a capable camera setup, and a clean software experience. If you want a well-rounded smartphone without breaking the bank, the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro is a strong contender.

I am in love with the new Nothing Phone 3a and Nothing Phone 3a Pro. However, the thing Nothing wants me to love the most I could do without.

Pro are here, and at first glance, they seem nearly identical. Both devices sport the signature transparent design, the flashy Glyph LED lights, and Nothing OS 3.1 running on Android 15.  They even share the same Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset,

With their sub-$500 prices, I pit the Nothing Phone 3a Pro and Pixel 8a in a 10-round photo shootout to see which is the better camera phone on a budget.

Nothing unveiled its 2025 mid-range phones, and the Phone 3a Pro and Phone 3a are all about camera features and an AI key.

Nothing Phone 3a Pro is a unique-looking phone that brings an essential flagship feature to the sub-$500 category.
