Nothing Reveals Phone 4a Design and New Glyph Bar Ahead of March 5 Launch

Nothing confirms a Snapdragon chipset as it prioritizes the A‑series over a 2026 flagship.

Overview

  • Nothing published the first official rear image showing a transparent back, a horizontal pill-shaped triple camera module, and a new Glyph Bar beside the camera island.
  • The Glyph Bar uses nine individually controllable mini‑LEDs and is claimed to be 40% brighter than previous A‑series lighting, with a white and red square layout designed for programmable alerts.
  • The global launch is set for March 5 at 10:30 GMT (4pm IST) with a livestream from Central Saint Martins in London via nothing.tech.
  • Nothing has only confirmed a Qualcomm Snapdragon platform so far, while reports suggest a two‑phone lineup (Phone 4a and 4a Pro) with Snapdragon 7‑series chips and India sales through Nothing’s store and Flipkart.
  • Leaked details point to 6.7–6.82‑inch 1.5K 120Hz AMOLED displays, larger ~5,000–5,400 mAh batteries with fast charging, Android 16‑based Nothing OS 4.0, and EU pricing around €389 for the 4a and €479 for the Pro, with lower prices expected in India.
