Nothing Phone (3A) and Phone (3A) Pro Review: budget achievements

I didn’t have many problems with the performance. Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 Inside feels fast almost everywhere. In the application of the camera you can see some of the prison or behind prison, and this is the only area in which I felt that this phone was equipped with a medium -range processor. In all other relationships feels as powerful as flagship, though intense games like Gensor It may not offer the highest graphic fidelity.

I’m glad I don’t see anything 256 GB storage here – it’s a high -time phone manufacturers who started doing so by default. Nothing has also improved the software update policy with three Android OS updates and 6 years of security updates that is respected, although Samsung promises a total of 6 years for both of their new new ones Galaxy A Series PhonesS Nothing will claim that Samsung is a megakorp while a low start. Fairly. I’m just glad to see these companies increase software support every year.

My only complaints are the lack of IP68 assessment and WirelessS Motorola just debuts its budget Moto G Power from 2025 A few weeks ago and for the first time there was an IP68 rating for the first time, not to mention that it can charge wirelessly. Evaluation of the IP64 of nothing that phones means that they will handle them in the rain, but you cannot immerse them under water, so be careful around the pool. It is difficult to get too rough for wireless charging, as it is not too often on phones under $ 500, but that certainly seems to be changing. Something that needs to be considered for the phone (4A).

The glyph lights remain on the back. I still like these LEDs – they can light music, notifications, show the rest of the time left on Timer and more. Do I find them extremely useful? No, but they are a fun touch, which adds a little lightness. This is a conversation starter.

Conceived ai touches

There is a new series button on the phone (3A): the main key. (Without connection with the scandalous Main.) Tap it once and it will capture your screen and allow you to add the voice or text note to it. This will be analyzed in the Essential Space app through artificial intelligence, extracting any useful information from the screen. It’s like Google Pixel screenshot app appExcept that you can entice your notes. You can also press and hold the button to record a voice note – this is analyzed and stored as memories, so you can return to them later. If you find that you wanted to act on something, it will generate a task. The double touch of the button opens the Essential Space app.

Compared to the way any other smartphone manufacturer, it seems to be pushing the same generic AI, the characteristics of our throats – copying AI! Writing tools! Summary! – The approach of nothing here is at least different. Initially, it took me some time to start using the feature. In the end, I accidentally pressed the button several times too many times because it is close to the power button (textured button would be smart). But now I slowly start pressing it and record a quick voice note of something I want to remember or achieved later.

The main key sits just below the power button.

There is also a new main space gadget.

These memories are transcribed, summarized, with tasks created on my behalf, if that is what I wanted. I can also play my audio video and hear myself directly. This is paired with the main space gadget that is crucial to my reminder of these tasks and memories.

This is not the first true AI Rodeo and I had some trouble about the security and confidentiality of all these personal notes I create, so here are some answers: nothing says that most data in the main space is stored on your device, such as audio data that is transformed into text. For the text and processing of the screen, these data are sent to the servers of nothing (in France for global users, India for Indian users) and subsequently deleted. Some other data are also uploaded to “improve processing accuracy”, such as weather data, time zone and location, although this is not stored. Nothing says that this data is not used for advertising and are not shared with third parties “outside the service request”. This last bit refers to third -party companies that nothing works with to enable AI’s functionality, although the company refused to share exactly what its partners are.
