London-based tech brand Nothing has officially launched its most ambitious products to date in Malaysia โ the flagship Nothing Phone (3) and its first over-ear audio device, Headphone (1). With a vision to redefine user experience through expressive design, intuitive features, and AI-driven interactions, the launch marks a significant milestone in the brandโs evolution.
Nothing Phone (3)
The Phone (3) represents Nothingโs leap into the flagship category, bringing together premium hardware, high-end photography, intelligent software, and a standout design. Powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, the Phone (3) boasts up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage, delivering 36% more CPU power and an 88% boost in GPU performance over its predecessor.
The 6.67-inch AMOLED display features a crisp 1.5K resolution, a peak brightness of 4500 nits, 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and ultra-narrow 1.87mm bezels on all sides for a 92.89% screen-to-body ratio. Coupled with 2160Hz PWM dimming and Ultra HDR support, the visual experience is vibrant and eye-friendly.
The rear camera system introduces a 1/1.3โ sensor with lossless optical zoom, full optical image stabilization, and 4K 60fps recording across all lenses. Designed in collaboration with pro photographers, it comes with built-in cinematic presets to streamline content creation.
At the heart of the Phone (3) lies the all-new Glyph Matrix, a programmable LED interface that provides glanceable notifications, real-time progress indicators, and even micro-games. New tools like Glyph Toys and contact-based pixel avatars offer a fresh way to interact with the device โ no screen required.
On the software side, Nothing OS 3.5, based on Android 15, integrates AI features such as Essential Search, Flip to Record, and Essential Space โ an AI-powered second brain for notes, reminders, and content summaries. The OS is built for simplicity, creativity, and personalization, with a promise of 5 years of Android updates and 7 years of security patches.
Powering it all is a 5150mAh silicon-carbon battery with 65W wired and 15W wireless charging.
Phone (3) will be available in black and white starting at RM3,299 (12GB + 256GB) and RM3,799 (16GB + 512GB), with exclusive early sales kicking off on July 19 at CROSSOVER Sunway Pyramid, followed by open sales from August 1 at online platforms and major retailers.
Introducing Headphone (1): Over-Ear Audio, Reinvented
Alongside the Phone (3), Nothing also debuted Headphone (1), its first over-ear audio product designed in collaboration with legendary British audio company KEF.
Headphone (1) combines aesthetics with acoustic precision, featuring transparent components, aluminium detailing, PU memory foam cushions, and oil-resistant, ergonomic ear cups for all-day comfort. Unlike typical headphones, it replaces touch gestures with physical tactile controls โ the Roller, Paddle, and Button โ offering reliable, intuitive interaction.
Internally, the 40mm custom dynamic drivers deliver a rich soundscape with deep bass, balanced mids, and crisp highs, backed by KEFโs proprietary tuning. Spatial Audio, LDAC, USB-C lossless audio, and a 3.5mm jack ensure high-fidelity wired and wireless playback.
Headphone (1) is also equipped with advanced adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and a 4-mic AI ENC system trained on 28 million noise profiles for crystal-clear calls. A single charge offers up to 35 hours of playback with ANC, while a 5-minute charge gives 2.4 hours of use.
The highlight is the Adaptive One-Tap AI Button, which activates Infinixโs Folax assistant, triggers voice notes via Essential Space, and even cycles through favourite apps using Channel Hop. Audio customization is enabled through an 8-band EQ in the Nothing X app.
Headphone (1) is priced at RM1,099 and will be available in Black and White. Pre-orders start on July 12 with free protective covers, and general availability begins on August 1.

Both Phone (3) and Headphone (1) will be sold through Nothingโs official online stores (Nothing.tech, Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop), authorised retailers (DirectD, TMT, Urban Republic, Vivid Concepts, and more), and select telco partners including U Mobile and Yes5G.
