So, should you buy the Nothing Phone (3) in the Flipkart Big Billion Days sale? Yes, but only if you have a Nothing Phone (1) or Phone (2) that you would like to exchange. For the rest, the Phone (3) for Rs 59,999 is still a no-go.

  • At Rs 59,999, the price is very steep for a device that lacks an LTPO display, USB 3 and cameras that don't exactly scream flagship.
  • While the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 is a great performer, the price-to-performance ratio is skewed. Phones that cost less than the Phone (3), like the OnePlus 13, offer significantly superior performance.
  • It uses Corning's Gorilla Glass 7i protection, which is found in mid-range devices. So, doesn't offer the best protection against scratches and drops.
  • Finally, the price of Rs 34,999 is exclusive for Nothing Phone (1) and Phone (2) users with loyalty bonus and cashback, leaving the majority of users hanging at Rs 59,999, which is not a good price acquisition.

The stars won't align for everyone, and for them, we would recommend skipping the Nothing Phone (3). Besides the Phone (3), there are Other Nothing phones on sale, including the Phone (3a) Pro and CMF Phone 2 Pro, with generous discounts.

If you're not inclined specifically towards Nothing, you can also look at the Galaxy S24 Snapdragon variant and the Pixel 9, which will both be available under Rs 40,000.
