Early Prime Day deal brings the overpriced Nothing Phone (3) close to impulse buy territory
Practically for the first time since its commercial US release last year, the Nothing Phone (3) actually feels reasonably priced.

That's mainly because the ambitious brand's third Android flagship didn't actually pack a flagship-grade chipset, settling for a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 when many other devices in a similar price range offered undeniably superior Snapdragon 8 Elite processing power.
Despite its fairly obvious compromises (and a few somewhat controversial design choices), this is still Nothing's most gifted handset, and for a presumably limited time, its price point feels justified in both an entry-level variant with 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage space and a top-of-the-line configuration packing an extra four gigs of memory and accomodating up to 512 gigs of data with no help from the cloud.
These Nothing Phone (3) models are normally available for $799 and $899 respectively, but if you hurry and if you're an Amazon Prime member, you can save an unprecedented 215 bucks on either one in your choice of black or white colorways.
Although it's not labeled as such, this is very clearly an early Prime Day 2026 promotion unlikely to be further improved next week, so if you're looking to buy a high-end (ish) smartphone with a... unique design at (close to) a mid-range price this summer, you might not want to waste another second and pull the trigger right now.
Our comprehensive Nothing Phone (3) review, mind you, argues that the 6.67-inch device looks in real life and feels in the hand much better and more premium than in any official press images while sporting an objectively gorgeous OLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate technology and up to 4500 nits of brightness and supporting blazing fast 65W wired and 15W wireless charging.
The software is silky smooth and spiced up with a bunch of neat and useful proprietary tweaks and enhancements over the stock Android experience, the battery life is excellent, and the triple 50MP rear-facing camera system... definitely not bad for the phone's newly reduced prices. Just consider that the Nothing Phone (3) is currently cheaper than not only something like Samsung's "vanilla" Galaxy S26 and Google's compact Pixel 10 but also the completely unremarkable Galaxy S25 FE.
