Nothing continues to make waves in the tech world with its innovative smartphone lineup, following the success of the Nothing Phone (3a) and (3a) Pro. Now, CEO Carl Pei has officially confirmed that the highly anticipated Nothing Phone (3) will launch in the third quarter of 2025, between July and September.
Nothing Phone (3) — Expected Launch Timeline
During a recent AMA session on X (formerly Twitter), Carl Pei addressed the growing curiosity surrounding the launch. He stated that the Nothing Phone (3) is set for a Q3 2025 debut, sparking excitement among fans, especially after the company’s consistent innovation streak with its recent models.

This new flagship is expected to deepen the company’s commitment to AI, particularly expanding on the Essential Space AI hub, first introduced with the Nothing Phone (3a) series. According to Pei, the upcoming Essential Space will feature smarter system integration, including with calendars and daily-use apps.
Rumored Specs: Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC or 8s Gen 4
Speculation suggests the Nothing Phone (3) might be powered by either the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC or the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, delivering a major performance upgrade over its predecessors.
For reference, the Nothing Phone (2) launched in India at Rs. 44,999, and the upcoming model is expected to fall within a competitive price range, considering the advanced hardware and AI features.
Development Timeline and Expectations
Carl Pei also shed light on the phone development cycle, stating that the process — from concept to mass production — typically spans 9 to 18 months, depending on the product’s complexity. This aligns perfectly with the expected launch window for the Nothing Phone (3), which is likely well into its development phase.
