Nothing Phone 3 Price To Be Nearly Rs 1 Lakh? Here's What CEO Carl Pei Tipped

PEi promised "major performance upgrades" on Nothing Phone (3), which indicates top-tier internals — likely the latest Snapdragon chip, enhanced RAM and storage options.

The long-awaited Nothing Phone (3) is finally inching closer to its official debut, and the buzz around its launch just got louder. Carl Pei, CEO and co-founder of the London-based tech startup Nothing, has now dropped a key detail about the upcoming flagship — its price.

Nothing’s First True Flagship Will Be a Premium Affair

After rolling out the mid-range Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, Nothing is now gearing up to enter flagship territory. Unlike its previous devices, the Phone (3) is being positioned as the brand’s first truly high-end smartphone. According to Pei, it is set to launch in the third quarter of this year, which means anytime between July and September.

Speaking in a recent video, Pei said that the Phone (3) will be priced at "around £800", putting it firmly in flagship territory. Based on current exchange rates, that converts to roughly €951 in Europe, $1,063 in the US, and Rs 90,500 in India. While this marks a significant jump from the company’s previous price points, Pei assures fans that the device will justify the tag.

‘Major Performance Upgrades’ On The Way

In the same teaser, Pei emphasised the leap in performance users can expect. He promised "major performance upgrades", which indicates top-tier internals — likely the latest Snapdragon chip, enhanced RAM and storage options, and possibly improved battery life.

He also hinted that Nothing is taking design and build quality seriously this time. "Premium materials" will be used in the construction of the Phone (3), moving it beyond the experimental design aesthetics that defined earlier models.

Refined Software Experience Also Promised

But it's not just about the hardware. Pei also mentioned a software overhaul, teasing that the Phone (3) will come with "software that really levels things up". This could mean a cleaner, more efficient version of Nothing OS or new features aimed at competing with other Android flagships.

With the device set to drop this summer, more teasers and reveals are expected in the coming weeks. For now, Carl Pei's early statements make one thing clear — Nothing is aiming high with the Phone (3), both in ambition and pricing.
