According to the teaser image, Nothing’s official handle shows a Phone (3a) with an iPhone-like Action Button on the side. While it isn’t clear, the new button could be used to launch the camera and take photos, which is suggested by the teaser’s caption “Your second memory, one click away.” The tagline is also accompanied by a scan of a smartphone from the side, showing what appears to be two buttons. The button might also be used to launch AI Assistant. The button is shaped like a volume rocker, so combining it with the tagline, Phone (3a) might be adopting some sort of dedicated camera button.

In a separate post on X.com, Nothing even showcased the glyph interface of its upcoming device while giving a peek into the camera design. Phone (3a) is expected to be the company’s first release with a telephoto lens for better optical zoom, which confirms Nothing is pushing towards a stronger camera performance.
