8.6/10 by Vanshika Malhotra | 05 Mar 2025

The Nothing Phone (3a) is a good successor to the Phone (2a) and offers good performance and display experience. The NothingOS is great as usual and the design stands out for sure. The display is also great, making it a perfect sub-Rs 25,000 phone right now.
