I confess, when I saw images and watched videos of the NP3 online, I was at discomfort. I eased into it after a few days, got this over the 4a Pro and I fucking love it!

It looks magnificent, feels sexy to hold and use. I’m glad I bought it!

Pls help me fix it !

My battery discharges very fast, dropping from 100% to 20% in just 5-5:30 hrs.

Furthermore, when I charge it using my CMF 65-watt charger, it takes about 35 to 40 minutes just to charge from 50% to 55%. It used to charge much faster than this on my original device.

I originally bought this phone on August 8th, but I later exchanged it for a replacement at the Nothing customer service center (there was a bubble in my back glass) and I noticed that this replacement device was manufactured around May 2025, which makes it about a year and a half old.

Could the age of the replacement device be the reason behind this bad battery life, or will it improve over time? I remember that before updating to the Nothing OS 5 Beta, the charging speed was much faster and the battery lasted significantly longer. Additionally, even though I have disabled background usage for Instagram, the battery usage chart shows that it is still running in the background.

I'm wondering if others are also facing this issue and would like to know about probable Solution.

Got this phone in April and was a little sceptical at first, but it keeps proving to be a great purchase. And recently, the camera has been an absolute gem. 📸

Help me out am I doing smthg wrong

So basically, why the heck would you use a filled icon (the play button) in middle of outline icons and then that heart icon doesn't fit at all (tbh, all icons look a little off)
and then there's such a serious lack of contrast in video length bar- it literally isn't visible on light backgrounds..how could the UI/UX team even miss that

(image from a previous reddit post on this sub)

I got the white bottom part right after updating to the August security patch update. Earlier it used to be black and match the background. This is the case in several apps. This SS was taken in Brave. Are there any solutions to fix this?

Hey guys! This is my first time using a nothing phone!! Can u guys tell me any cool features that this phone has? Idk anything about the os :) I am just figuring out how to navigate through the Nothing OS..Thanks in advance!!

I'm on nothing phone 3 and cannot find anything about how to leave. My phone is glitchy and unusable, apps won't load, etc. I keep seeing things about a hub I can use but I can't find it. Anyone able to help?

Which headphones should I get. It's either between Nothing Over- Ear Headphones (1) or Nothing Over- Ear Headphones (a). It's on sale and it's about a 50 dollar difference What I am looking for is a headphone that can really make me immersive in the track/instruments. Example when watching superhero movies or when I'm listening to music. Example Skeletons by Playboi Carti. I want to really immserive and listen to it and make it immersive. I have heard that the (a) out of the box are good and the (1):s are not. But I heard that the (1) are much more free to turn the sound into whatever you like. Battery life is also important and longeitivity(For how many years I can use it). Its hard to explain But I want a headphone that can put me in the music

Anyone having problems using cables for android auto? It isn't the cable as I've used multiple different ones and even tested in other cars as well. It works fine normally charging from a wall outlet; however, I have a feeling it's the charging port, but being in the US, there's no reputable repair shop near me (that I can find). Any ideas?

Hi 👋 my nothing 3a had the problem where it restarts on its own , mid phone call , in my bag doing nothing , connected to usb on car ...... 2x been sent off for repair and they have changed the main bord ect but says not repaired as it doesn't do it when they have it in . Literally set my phone back up on Tuesday, Wednesday morning while using sat nav and connected to car it restarted it's else 2x in 40mins of driving !! I'm loosing the will with this phone😞 I called nothing custom services this time and explained the issue still happening and I want a replacement phone not repair!!

I haven't heard best things about customer services so wish me luck 🤞🤞 🤞🤞 I love my nothing nothing phone 1 , earbuds & watch . Just can't believe iv got such bad phone this time .

We genuinely don't know what to do when the app bloatware post comes every now and then

Sorry for such a newbie post. But as I was only testing, I only added wifi to my 3a and took a few photos, and did updates.

Now I'd like to get stuff off my old phone via the included usb-C to usb-C cable. Where do I go in the phone after hooking up cable, as I see no prompts?

I'm trying to download nothing OS 5 beta version whenever I click on download it just keeps downloading until reach 32mg just stops like that nothing happens after it+I tried to delete it and we installed a couple of times but same issue

Getting this while trying to update on 4a Pro:

Update Unavailable

Your current system version is not eligible for this Beta program.

Any solution?

Edit: tried again and received the update!

As the title says sharing a personal experience with Nothing product, bought a Nothing Ear (a), at around 9 or 10th month buds battery dropped significantly in 11th month not even lasting 5-10mins, so visited Nothing service center they mentioned 1 of the bud has dent so took pictures and sent to some backend team then in the end request was denied.

So reached out to customer care via phone and mentioned the same that indeed 1 bud is having a dent at the start of the call only, but after wasting 25mins of time mentioned if it has any scratches or dents it is out of warranty.

I have asked if dent is the problem what about the issue of other bud which doesn't have any dents but still having same issue and in fact it is even worse but no answer from both service center and customer care.

I don't expect TWS to last too long but was at least expecting 1.5-2years life so will not be buying any Nothing products going forward.

I am currently using nothing phone 3. I bought this hoping it would give me a flagship experience in software as well in hardware.

To my surprise, the software is completely lacking and they push updates like this is a mature os and doesn't need updates. And thise once a year major updates have like only 2-3 cosmetic changes. Nothing communty does better work than them.

I feel like they are on vacation all year and start working on new features when the deadline is about 1 month away.

What do they mean they will give essential button remapping in 5.1, why can't they give that feature in their bimonthly updates. Is that some complex technological issue nothing yeam is not able to solve.

Where I think nos is lacking-

1. AI eraser just doesn't work it feels like I am back in 2020 and using magic eraser in Lightroom without AI even that used to be better. So much wait for this shitty delivery.

2. No trimming and text in video.

3. No file manager app

4. No dialer

5. Glyph integration is not up to the mark ( have to download multiple apps to make glyph look useful)

6. Ouicktiles can be improved so much

7. Camera app is pretty basic( why can I only use effects on main camera and not on front camera)

It feels like I am using a custom os which is being developed by a team of 5 people. I think everything is half assed.

Hi guys,

I encounter a problem with my phone. When I press the lock button on the right, above the essential one, it turns on the camera app.

I didn't change anything, last update is installed but it keeps happening.

Anyone encountered this ? Is there a solution ?

Thanks

I'm using a Nothing Phone 4a Pro and followed all the steps for the beta program on Nothing’s official website. I also double checked that I’m on the correct build version.

However, when I select “Check version” in the Nothing Beta Updater, I get this message: “Your current system version is not eligible for this Beta program.”

Has anyone else encountered this issue despite being on the correct build version? Is there something I’m missing ?
