Only 1,000 units will be produced. To secure one, interested buyers must register by December 11. A limited sales window will open on December 12 on Nothing’s official website.
Nothing received over 700 submissions from its community, featuring diverse designs, software concepts, accessories, and visual storytelling. The selected contributors include Emre Kayganacl (hardware design), Ambrogio Tacconi and Louis Aymond (accessories), Jad Zock (lock screen clock and wallpaper design), and Sushruta Sarkar (marketing campaign).
These collaborators worked closely with Nothing’s design, software, marketing, and creative teams in London over recent months to bring their vision to life.
The hardware design draws inspiration from late 1990s and early 2000s aesthetics. The accessories include a dice set featuring numbers in Nothing’s Ndot 55 font. The custom clock face is designed to reduce visual clutter and guide users’ focus to essential elements. Additionally, an exclusive wallpaper acts as a visual bridge between the phone’s rear color and texture and the front interface.
The Community Edition shares the same specifications as the standard Nothing Phone (3a), featuring a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 2,160Hz PWM dimming, and 3,000-nit peak brightness. It is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset and sports a triple rear camera setup: a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultrawide sensor. The front camera is a 32MP shooter. The device houses a 5,000 mAh battery that supports 50W wired charging. This edition comes with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage and is priced at £379 / €379 / ₹28,999 / ¥59,800.
