Exactly one week after its official presentation, the Nothing Phone (3) It has been seen on the certification platform FCC, thus revealing a series of official data and specifications. But that's not all: Nothing has posted a new image on social media which has sparked speculation. It shows part of the device's back casing, where it appears what appears to be a mysterious button, accompanied by the phrase: «"What does this button do?"»
Although there is no official confirmation, The wireless charging coil also seems to be present., This suggests that the design will maintain the focus of previous models regarding wireless charging compatibility. The problem is that proportionally, something doesn't quite fit; we'll see what Nothing surprises us with.
Nothing Phone (3) with model number A024
Nothing's new phone is listed under the model number A024 and features FCC certification ID: 2AZEQ-A024. As expected, the device will come with Nothing OS 3.3 based on Android 15, which makes it the first terminal from the brand to debut directly with this version of the operating system.
Key technical details include 5150 mAh battery (model NT05A) and compatibility with fast charging up to 65W using a charger identified as C286, accompanied by a cable USB-C to USB-C 1 meter cable. In terms of connectivity, the Phone (3) will come with support for Tri-band WiFi 6E, Bluetooth, NFC and 5G/4G/3G/2G networks.
A physical button to control the rear screen?
The image posted by Nothing appears to show a small part of the Nothing Phone (3), including a round section that could be the new pixelated rear screen, This is a concept that has been rumored before. The most striking feature is the supposed button visible at the bottom of that area.
Although Nothing hasn't confirmed anything (beyond the provocative message "What does this button do?"), it makes a lot of sense that the button could be used to... interact with the rear screen when the phone is face down. We could be looking at a function similar to a small widget panel: clock, weather, notifications, quick access to an assistant, or media controls, Everything is accessible from that rear screen using the physical button. This idea perfectly aligns with the brand's functional and minimalist design approach.
Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and up to 16 GB of RAM
It is confirmed that This terminal will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, This positions it as Nothing's most powerful device to date. Two configurations are expected: 12 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage and 16 GB of RAM with 512 GB, with estimated prices of $799 and $899 respectively.
The possible colors have also been leaked: white and blue, although previous listings only mentioned versions in black and white. The device's frame will be metallic and will feature internal antennas, which could influence both its aesthetics and signal design.
No Pro model and new CMF products
Everything points to the fact that There will not be a "Phone (3) Pro" version.« for now, and that Nothing will opt for a single standard model. Furthermore, during the event of July 1, 2025.
The presentation of the new Headphone (1) —the company's first over-ear headphones—, as well as two new products from the CMF sub-brand, one of which would be the CMF Watch 3 Pro.
