Nothing Phone (3) and Headphone (1) leak reveals colours and flagship prices

In a world where smartphone brands are either playing it safe or doubling down on AI buzzwords, Nothing seems to be leaning into its signature rebel spirit. The London-based disruptor, helmed by Carl Pei, is reportedly gearing up for its biggest moment yet – the debut of the Nothing Phone (3) and its first-ever Nothing Headphone (1). And a recent leak has revealed the products’ colours and pricing details. Here’s what you need to know.

Nothing Phone (3) and Headphone (1) colours and pricing leaked

Courtesy of a tipster on X, leaked details hint at a July unveiling for the Phone (3) – a device poised to break new ground as Nothing’s first proper flagship.

Expect classic black and white colour options, a starting price of $799 (approx. Rs 68,200) for the 12GB/256GB model, and an $899 (approx. Rs 76,800) option with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. This is in line with Carl Pei’s statement earlier which you can read more about here.

However, some reports suggest that the Indian pricing could be more conservative; likely under the Rs 50,000-mark.

But what’s even more intriguing? The absence of the brand’s iconic Glyph interface. Instead, rumours suggest a bold new customisable dot-matrix display might replace the signature back panel lights.

And that’s not all. Come September 30, Nothing plans to make noise (literally) with the launch of its first ever headphones dubbed the Nothing Headphone (1). Designed to complement its phone lineup, the over-ear cans will reportedly retail at $299 (approx. Rs 25,500) and come in black and white.

It will reportedly compete with the likes of the Sony WH-1000XM5 or even the upcoming XM6. If Nothing’s portfolio is anything to go by, these cans will be quite the statement piece.

So, is Nothing’s bold ambition enough to disrupt the flagship market and the premium audio scene? We’ll find out soon. But one thing’s for sure – Carl Pei’s startup isn’t playing it safe.
