Is it just me or did someone else think the phone 2a looks better from the front than the phone 3a ??

[shadowfight]

Looks like bezels are thicker in phone 3a compared to the previous generation.

[kindofanmol]

Didn't expect the Blue to look THAT good. But I'm kinda baffled by their decision of changing the phone's shape and bezels. The 2a looked absolutely perfect from the front. 3a looks worse from the front.

[harikrishnasi]

Ignore your life problems like he ignored ufs 2.2 storage. This guy used to cry about phones not having USB 3.1.

[HardikUmretiyaVlogs]

They could have gone with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 for the 3a Pro.

[ganesanpv]

The video aspect ratio now plays in full screen without needing to zoom in that’s great! Maintain the same aspect ratio

[Vikas.mewara]

I was expecting better camera

Now I'll buy Moto edge 60 😢

[somnambulist]

bro why ufs 2.2 storage in 2025 at 30k price range, why sd7 gen s 3 , you guys speak like software is everything, but all a good software does is to bring out the potential of hardware. software can't do magic if hardware is trash . NP3a and 3p is like the dime a dozen phone in this market, all hype but nothing special

[ahmadfz]

is it just me or you also think that nothing phone 2a design wise is better than 3a? 🤷

[harshshah]

Wasn't worth waiting...but still phone 3a is better phone for money than phone 3a pro

[corporatemonkey]

You are my favourite new local tech reviewer. Local meaning from an Indian perspective.

[vtsalparmar]

I'll appreciate the aspect ratio of video

[rkarthiksharma]

I've noticed this issue not just in this video, but in others as well—the editing team sometimes mixes up device names in comparison videos. This can be misleading at times.

[harshil.]

Just to correct you, Nothing doesn’t support HDR on Netflix because it doesn’t have the app pre-installed which is due to Nothing’s policy of not giving bloatware.

[aminvincible]

For me the display of 2a is better because of the bezzels

[firewallguy]

when the 3a will be available for purchase

[akshayHRX]

Hilights of Nothing phone 3a
1. Panda glass protection
2. No HDR/Dolby vision on Netflix
3. RAM & ROM - LPDDR 4x & UFS 2.2 storage
4. 5000mah battery with 50w charger
5. SD 7S gen 3 instead of 7+ gem 3, 8s gen 3 / even dimensity 9200
6. Thick bezels around the display
I dont know how it's gonna stand infront of competition like Realme GT6T, Poco F6 & upcoming Iqoo neo 10r, i think Nothing is on the path of how OnePlus lost it's charm in budget segment

[pradeeprvs]

Curious to know if 3a also has the same display issues that 2a has, such as hdr content color issues, black tearing etc..

[haula]

What's the point of releasing 3a pro ?? I think just to increase the price of upcoming regular Phone 3

[ytbharathkumar]

Is there an option to increase the audio bitrate in the 3a? 96kbps seems like zoom call quality
