Nothing Launches Phone (3) and First Over-Ear Headphones

London-based brand Nothing has officially launched its first true flagship smartphone, the Phone (3), alongside its debut over-ear audio product, Headphone (1).

Both devices continue the company’s design-led, expressive consumer tech approach, with both products coming to Australia this month.

The Phone (3) builds on Nothing’s transparent aesthetic with a refined design, premium materials, and a new Glyph Matrix – a dynamic micro-LED interface on the back of the device that delivers glanceable notifications and custom alerts.

The phone also sees a significant performance upgrade and a major push into pro-level content creation.

A large 1/1.3-inch sensor, lossless optical zoom, and 4K 60fps video with optical image stabilisation across all lenses make the Phone (3) a serious tool for creators.

Nothing has also collaborated with professional photographers to develop cinematic shooting presets.

“Tech has become boring; every phone looks the same, feels the same, does the same,” said Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing. “Phone (3) is our answer: a flagship built to make tech feel personal again.”

Headphone (1)

Launched alongside the phone, Headphone (1) marks Nothing’s entry into the over-ear audio market. Designed in collaboration with British hi-fi brand KEF, the headphones aim to combine high-end sound quality with the brand’s signature see-through aesthetic.

“With Headphone (1), we set out to create something that doesn’t just sound great, it feels different the moment you pick it up,” said Adam Bates, Head of Design at Nothing.

Built from formed aluminium, CNC-machined components and PU memory foam, the headphones promise all-day comfort, intuitive tactile controls, and a standout design.

The lightweight build and oil-resistant ear cushions are engineered to reduce ear pressure while maintaining a secure seal.

Australian Pricing and Availability

Phone (3) will be available in black and white in two configurations:

• 12 GB + 256 GB – A$1,509
• 16 GB + 512 GB – A$1,689

Headphone (1) will be available in black and white for A$549.
