3. Teasers suggest the new smartphone may come in pink and blue, with a focus on a new material for its casing.
4. Rumors indicate the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro will feature a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chip, with options for 8GB or 12GB of RAM and 128GB to 256GB of storage.

Nothing’s founder, Carl Pei, has shared a teaser that the upcoming launch event for the company is scheduled for Thursday, March 5. Instead of creating an original teaser, Pei cleverly adapted the announcement flyer for Apple’s next event by swapping in his own brand name and the date.
Timing with Apple
It’s likely not just a coincidence that the new Nothing Phone (3a) Pro will be revealed the day after the Apple iPhone 17e. This timing lets Nothing market its mid-range smartphone as a “better” option, boasting a quicker display, a bigger battery, and more cameras—all at a more affordable price.
Teaser Details
Nothing’s official X account is taking a more subtle approach with its teaser campaign, still confirming the March 5 date. Additional teasers hint that the smartphone may come in pink and blue, and will “feel good,” likely alluding to a new material that could be used for its casing.
Specifications and Rumors
Past rumors indicate that the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, a 4nm ARM chip with four Cortex-A720 performance cores alongside four Cortex-A520 efficiency cores. Both the Nothing Phone (4a) and the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro are anticipated to be available with options of 8GB or 12GB of RAM, as well as 128GB to 256GB of flash storage. In addition to the vibrant colors teased, both devices will also come in white and black. The Nothing Headphone (a) is also rumored to launch at this event.
