What Makes It Tick
Display

Camera
Its triple rear-camera setup gives versatility: a 50 MP main lens, a 50 MP 2× telephoto lens for closer shots, and an 8 MP ultrawide. Selfies are handled by a 16 MP front shooter.
While it lacks optical image stabilization (OIS), users report good image quality in daylight.
Performance
Powered by the Dimensity 7300 Pro chip, paired with 8 GB of RAM, the phone delivers competent everyday performance. According to PhoneArena, the 256 GB variant especially offers very good value.
The UI is Nothing OS 3.2 on Android 15, giving a clean, minimal interface.
Battery
The 5,000 mAh battery performs well for a full day of moderate use.
Charging is via 33 W wired, which is decent but not very fast by modern standards.
Software
Nothing OS 3.2 (Android 15) offers a clean experience, light customization, and the promise of 3 major Android updates plus 6 years of security patches.
The “Essential Key” (dedicated button) brings quick access to features like voice notes, reminders, and screenshots.
Connectivity
You get full 5G support, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and a microSD slot for storage expansion — rare in this range.
It includes an optical in-display fingerprint scanner for security.
