Nothing Phone (4a) Pro launched in India starting at Rs. 39,999 with 6.83-inch 1.5K 144Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC, 140x Zoom Periscope Camera
Nothing has launched its latest mid-flagship smartphone in the Phone (4a) series, the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro in the Global Market, including India, and the successor to last year’s Phone (3a) Pro, as previously promised.
Display, Performance, and Software -
It features a large 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 5000 nits peak brightness. It is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor paired with up to 12GB LPDDR5X RAM. The device also includes a 5,300 mm² vapour chamber cooling system and supports BGMI at 120Hz and PUBG at 90Hz for smoother gaming performance.
The phone runs Android 16 with Nothing OS 4.1. Nothing has promised three Android OS upgrades and six years of security updates, similar to its earlier models. It continues to feature the Essential Key, along with Essential Space.
Glyph Matrix -
Unlike the standard Phone (4a), the Pro model introduces the Glyph Matrix, which was first seen on the Phone (3). It now features 137 mini-LEDs. Despite using fewer LEDs than previous implementations, it covers 57% more area and is 100% brighter, reaching around 3000 nits, allowing for clearer and more detailed notification visuals, according to the company.
The phone also supports Glyph Toys, including Battery, Timer, Digital Clock, Solar Path, and Glyph Mirror, all integrated into the Glyph Matrix Always-On Display experience.
Camera and Design -
The device is equipped with a 50MP main camera featuring a Sony LYT700C sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 32MP front camera. It also includes a 50MP 3.5x periscope telephoto camera with OIS, offering up to 140x zoom, which the company claims is the longest zoom capability ever on a Nothing smartphone and a leading feature in its segment.
The phone features a full-metal aluminium frame with a sleek 7.95mm design. The redesigned camera bar houses both the cameras and the Glyph Matrix, while the rear panel is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. It also carries an IP65 rating for dust and splash resistance.
Battery -
The Indian variant comes with a 5,400mAh battery, an upgrade from the 5,000mAh battery in its predecessor, while the global model packs a 5,080mAh battery. It supports 50W PD wired fast charging, capable of charging the device to 60% in about 30 minutes. However, wireless charging is not supported.
According to the company, the battery is designed to retain over 90% of its capacity even after 1,200 charging cycles, which equates to more than 3 years and 4 months of daily charging.
