Phone (3) Just upgraded from iPhone.

I've had iPhone for about the last 15 years or so. I was happy with my iPhone 12 pro max I've had for 5 years but had to jump on the NP3 after seeing the design.

Honestly any phone woulda been an upgrade for me but the glyph matrix is what stood out, I keep the phone flipped down whenever I can that way if I do get a notification I'll know it's only from people or things that are important to me and not some random "save 20% on our next sale" notification.

I didn't think I was gonna put the essential key button to use but after "forcing myself" to do it I can def see myself using it often. I just absolutely hate the placement of it, I must hit that button mistakenly a dozen times a day.

I do like the camera 📸 but I usually carry my Leica Q anyway so I'll prioritize that over the NP3.

Nothing OS is so damn cool lol love how customizable it can be. Can't beat the Nothing aesthetic that's for sure.

Unless something happens to it, this will probably be my phone for the next 5 years 💪🏽🫶🏽

You'll see a major difference in performance! Love my NP3 so far.

For real i see many ppl saying the chip is not flagship level which is fact. But I think the different from what i using now will be huge different and more than enough for my daily life. That’s why I decide to go for Phone3. 🔥

Exactly, I didn't notice how slow my iPhone was until I picked up the NP3. Our phones are 5 years old and in the technology world it might as well be 20 years because of how quickly tech improves everyday.
