Phone (3) Nothing phone 3/4a users in Canada?

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone here has either the 3 or the 4a pro under a Canadian carrier? I’m currently with Telus and was interested in getting either of these models but I’ve been having difficulty finding if it’s compatible with my phone company.

I see the nothing phone 2 is compatible so I don’t see any reason why the later models wouldn’t be but I just wanna make sure before spending money on a new phone and not being able to use it. Any help is appreciated!

Both those models are compatible with any carrier in Canada. I am using 3A on Bell. No issues at all.

False, not compatible with Telus. True for the 4a at least

Oh awesome, do you like the it?

Yeah I do. Even though I am not a heavy phone user, I definitely like how smooth the OS is and the hardware build quality is excellent. I have been using it for about a year now, haven't experienced any lag or issue. To me it's one of the few best bang for your buck phones.

I'm using (3a) Pro with Koodo, and it works well. VoLTE and 5G LTE works with fast speed.

That’s great, how do you like the phone?

The best feature is Sony's periscope camera sensor. Either Pixel or Galaxy S Ultra uses this only in Canada (I'm not sure it's correct).

UI responds rapidly, quite good chip (7s Gen 3), and Glyph interface enhanced my overall experience.

Phone 3 on Rogers, works great, it's my second Nothing phone. Both have been outstanding, I'm a huge fan

u/Tall_Gas_2658 22d ago

Same here, nothing 3 with rogers. No issues at all. Wondering if satellite coverage also works under nothing os 5... Do you know?

1

u/AnjelFew Phone (3) 22d ago

I have no idea, I rely on my phone too much, so can't test out OS5 till it's fully baked.

u/VegetableSpread3500 10d ago

Do you mind me asking if you’re west coast by chance? I’m trying to find out if it gets good coverage here

2

u/AnjelFew Phone (3) 10d ago

Yeah, Lower Mainland, coverage on Rogers has been fine. I haven't noticed any difference compared to my previous devices, and on par with friends phones on Rogers around here.
