The debut of the Nothing Phone (2a) — the third smartphone from the disruptive brand — is on the horizon and slated for release next month. The device is tipped to be positioned as a more budget-friendly option compared to its predecessor, the original Nothing Phone 2, which made its debut last year.

In a video shared on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) earlier this week, Nothing officially confirmed the forthcoming launch of its next smartphone as March 5th at 11:30 GMT.

Leaked images of a pre-production unit have already surfaced, showcasing a redesigned back panel. The forthcoming Nothing Phone (2a) is also set to feature a centrally positioned hole-punch for its front camera and a horizontally aligned 50-megapixel dual camera configuration on the rear panel, a departure from previous design iterations of Nothing smartphones.
