Nothing has officially confirmed the Nothing Phone 4a series will be unveiled at a global event on March 5, 2026 at 4:00 PM IST. The launch will be live-streamed on Nothing’s official website and YouTube channel.
Once launched, the standard Nothing Phone 4a goes on sale from March 12, 2026, while the Phone 4a Pro variant follows on March 26, 2026 — both exclusively on Flipkart in India.

Design: The Glyph Bar is Back — And Better
Nothing’s signature transparent design returns with the Phone 4a, but with a big upgrade: the Glyph Bar now features nine brighter mini-LEDs, making it more expressive and useful than any previous Nothing phone. The back panel maintains the iconic see-through aesthetic that has made Nothing one of the most visually distinctive smartphone brands.
Available in four colours — Black, Blue, Pink, and White, the Phone 4a gives buyers more choice than before. The IP65 rating adds solid protection against dust and water splashes.
Camera: Triple 50MP Setup That Punches Above Its Price
The Nothing Phone 4a carries a triple rear camera system — 50MP primary sensor, 50MP telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultrawide. This is a major upgrade over the previous generation and puts the Phone 4a among the best camera phones under ₹35,000.
On the front, a 32MP selfie camera with autofocus — rare at this price — makes video calls and portrait selfies noticeably sharper. OIS on the rear cameras ensures stable video and better low-light shots.
Performance: Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 + Nothing OS on Android 16
Powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 — built on a 4nm process — the Phone 4a delivers a significant boost in efficiency and AI performance. Paired with up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage, it handles gaming, multitasking, and content creation effortlessly.
The phone runs Nothing OS on Android 16 — the cleanest Android skin available. Nothing promises at least 3 years of OS updates, making it a long-term buy.
Battery: 5400mAh — All-Day, Every Day
A 5,400mAh battery with 50W fast charging means all-day usage with ease, and a full charge in just over an hour. This is one of the biggest batteries in its price range, and Nothing OS’s efficiency ensures every milliamp-hour is well spent.
