London-based technology brand Nothing has officially launched its most advanced product lineup to date in Malaysia: the flagship Nothing Phone (3) and its first over-ear audio device, Headphone (1). With a clear vision to redefine the everyday tech experience through expressive design, intuitive features, and AI-powered functionality, the launch marks a major step forward for the brand in the Southeast Asian market.

Nothing Phone (3) represents a leap into flagship territory, bringing together high-performance hardware, advanced imaging capabilities, and a distinctive transparent design. It is powered by the latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, coupled with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage, offering significant performance improvements over its predecessor. The device is equipped with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display featuring a sharp 1.5K resolution, 4500 nits peak brightness, 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and ultra-thin bezels, delivering a screen-to-body ratio of nearly 93 percent. It also includes advanced eye-friendly features such as 2160Hz PWM dimming and Ultra HDR support.

The rear camera system includes a large 1/1.3-inch sensor, lossless optical zoom, full optical image stabilization, and the ability to record in 4K at 60 frames per second across all lenses. Developed in collaboration with professional photographers, the device comes with built-in cinematic presets for content creators.

One of the standout features of the Phone (3) is the redesigned Glyph Matrix, a programmable LED interface that offers glanceable notifications, real-time progress indicators, and even playful experiences like micro-games. Additional features include contact-based pixel avatars and new Glyph Toys, offering unique ways to interact with the phone without turning on the display.

Running on Nothing OS 3.5, based on Android 15, the software experience integrates several AI tools including Essential Search, Flip to Record, and Essential Space a productivity assistant designed to handle notes, reminders, and content summaries. The brand also commits to long-term support, promising five years of Android updates and seven years of security patches.

Powering the device is a 5150mAh silicon-carbon battery that supports 65W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. The Phone (3) will be available in black and white, with retail prices starting at RM3,299 for the 12GB + 256GB variant and RM3,799 for the 16GB + 512GB model. Early access sales begin on 19 July at CROSSOVER in Sunway Pyramid, with open sales starting 1 August at official online stores and major retailers.

In addition to the Phone (3), Nothing also introduced its first over-ear audio device, the Headphone (1), designed in collaboration with British audio specialists KEF. The Headphone (1) combines futuristic aesthetics with precision engineering, featuring transparent elements, aluminium accents, and ergonomic PU memory foam cushions. The design replaces conventional touch gestures with tactile physical controls such as a roller, paddle, and button, allowing for intuitive interaction even during movement.

The headphones feature custom 40mm dynamic drivers tuned by KEF, delivering deep bass, clear mids, and crisp highs. They support Spatial Audio, LDAC, USB-C lossless audio, and come with a 3.5mm jack for flexible connectivity. Advanced adaptive active noise cancellation, Transparency Mode, and a four-microphone AI noise reduction system ensure clear calls in any environment. With up to 35 hours of playback time with ANC enabled and quick charging support, users can enjoy 2.4 hours of usage with just a 5-minute charge.

A highlight feature is the Adaptive One-Tap AI Button, which activates the Folax assistant, enables quick voice notes using Essential Space, and allows users to switch between favorite apps with a feature called Channel Hop. The audio experience can also be customized through the Nothing X app, which includes an 8-band equalizer.

Headphone (1) is priced at RM1,099 and is available in black and white. Pre-orders begin on 12 July and include a free protective cover, with general availability starting 1 August 2025.

Both Phone (3) and Headphone (1) will be available through Nothing’s official online stores, including Nothing.tech, Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop, as well as through authorized retailers such as DirectD, TMT, Urban Republic, and Vivid Concepts. Selected telecommunications partners including U Mobile and Yes5G will also offer the devices.

This launch signals Nothing’s continued commitment to pushing boundaries in both design and performance while delivering meaningful and innovative technology to everyday users.
