The Nothing Phone (3) is set to be officially introduced on July 1, aiming to serve as a more advanced option compared to the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro. A few weeks back, Nothing announced that this flagship device would not include the Glyph Interface, which is the signature Nothing LED lighting on the back. In the teaser video shared below, the company showcases what it’s replacing the Glyph Interface with.

New Display Feature

Instead of the Glyph Interface, there will be a small dot matrix display located in the top right corner of the back. This new feature is named the “Glyph Matrix.” This concept isn’t brand new; the Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro has a similar kind of display on its back. Asus even allows users to play simple games like Pong on that dot matrix, but it also serves more practical purposes, such as showing incoming notifications or a limited selection of widgets, like the weather forecast.

Specs and Pricing

The specific features that the Glyph Matrix will offer remain unclear at this time. However, the smartphone is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, along with options of 12 GB to 16 GB of RAM and 256 GB to 512 GB of internal storage. A leak suggests that the Nothing Phone (3) might be priced at either €799 or €899, depending on the chosen storage option. Additionally, Nothing has announced that this flagship device will receive five significant Android updates and seven years of security patches.
