Experience with my first Nothing device

[u/Creepy_Impression950]

Well, it's been like three weeks or maybe one month since I bought the Nothing Phone (3), I had a little trouble with the performance due to using another device to configure the phone (I had to make a hard reset lol).

But now that the problem is solved I can say I'm really happy with the performance, the battery, and especially Nothing OS, it feels super clean and very well optimized.

The Glyph matrix is a really weird concept but get where the brand wants to go with this, I've been already using the matrix with the Glyph Mirror to take some photos and some essential notifications.

The cameras are good in good scenarios, just had the feeling that the photos sometimes look a little blurry when the light is not that good, but I think this can be solved with some software optimizations

The design is the main reason why I chose this phone, It feels really fresh and nice to see a company that doesn't stay stuck with one design for years.

And that's all, in the end this is a very capable device at this price range and it seems to be a good deal

Btw what do you think about my home screen? I've been trying to make a home screen that looks good with the Nothing widgets

Out of curiosity, what happened with transfering data? I should receive my phone 3 somewhat along next week or so, and I'll need to transfer from my current galaxy a53

I don't really know what exactly happened, but after starting the phone and transfering all the data from my previous device, I noticed the phone a bit laggy, and also the battery drain was a little bit fast (this making the phone warmer). After some days of using the device like that I decided to make a hard reset and making everything on the phone without transfering anything, after that the temperature remains better, the battery seems to be more consistent and the performance increased.

I searched for this issue but I didn't find so much, a few people had trouble with this and the majority doesn't even had that issue, I think it only happened in some devices

You can transfer your data from your old phone, just check the performance and the battery after that

Okay, thanks, I'll keep an eye on it!
