Previous leaks indicate that both Nothing Phone (3a) series smartphones will be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset, feature 6.72-inch AMOLED displays with a 120Hz refresh rate, IP64 dust and splash protection, and 5,000mAh batteries.

Now the company has revealed that the main camera unit of the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro will include a 50-megapixel main camera with optical stabilization, a 50-megapixel module with a periscopic telephoto lens, 3x optical zoom, 60x digital zoom and an equivalent focal length of 70 mm, and an 8-megapixel wide-angle camera. The front camera will receive a 50-megapixel sensor. It is assumed that the Nothing Phone (3a) will be equipped with a regular telephoto lens with 2x zoom instead of a periscopic lens.

The manufacturer said the Phone (3a) series of smartphones will receive advanced TrueLens Engine 3.0 photo optimization software with AI-powered scene recognition for what the manufacturer says are “professional, realistic” results.

Nothing emphasized that all four cameras on the upcoming Nothing Phone (3a) support Ultra HDR, with the main and front cameras also offering 4K video recording with “stable footage and night-time enhancement.”
