Nothing has officially unveiled the Nothing Phone (3a) Community Edition, following its announcement earlier in March. This special edition celebrates contributions from the Nothing community, combining unique design elements, software features, and accessories.
Nothing Phone (3a) Options and Pricing
The Community Edition is highly limited, with only 1,000 units available worldwide. Interested buyers must register by December 11 to participate in a limited sales window on December 12 via Nothing's official website.
Over 700 community members submitted designs and ideas spanning hardware, software, accessories, and visual storytelling. Selected contributors include Emre Kayganacl for hardware design; Ambrogio Tacconi and Louis Aymond for accessories; Jad Zock for lock screen clock and wallpaper designs; and Sushruta Sarkar for the marketing campaign.
These collaborators worked closely with Nothing's design, software, marketing, and creative teams in London to bring their shared vision to life over recent months.
The hardware draws inspiration from late 1990s and early 2000s aesthetics. The included accessory is a dice box featuring numbers in Nothing's signature Ndot 55 font. The custom clock face is designed to minimize visual clutter while highlighting key information, and there is an exclusive wallpaper that visually bridges the rear color and texture with the front interface.
In terms of specifications, the Community Edition matches the standard Nothing Phone (3a). It offers a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 2,160Hz PWM dimming, and up to 3,000 nits peak brightness. The device is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC and features a triple rear camera setup: a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilization, a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultrawide camera. A 32MP front-facing camera handles selfies, and a 5,000mAh battery supports 50W wired fast charging. The Community Edition specifically comes with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, priced at £379 / €379 / ₹28,999 / ¥59,800.
