The Nothing Phone 3 is getting an official release for US customers. The handset will be available to purchase from Amazon or directly from the company,according to a report byTechCrunch. Nothing CEO Carl Peihas been teasing this newssince April, but now it's official.
Canadians will also be able to get in on the retail action, as Nothing has inked a deal with Best Buy to sell the new handset in the region. The phonegoes on sale next month.
The company has produced eight handsets since forming back in 2020,but only the Phone 2has made it togeneral sale in the US. For the other models, users would have to buy a unit via a beta program and there was no after-sale support. So this is good news for North Americans who are tired of Samsung and Apple.

“The smartphone market in the US is dominated by two players, but a lot of people are hungry for something different,” Pei toldTechCrunch. "This is the right product, and the right moment, to start scaling in North America."
The downside here? The phone will only be available from Amazon and Nothing, so there will be no option to purchase from a carrier for a discount. However, it'll support 4G and 5G with AT&T and T-Mobile. There's no explicit support for Verizon, but the Phone 2worked well with its networkand the same thing will likely be true here.
There's no official US price yet. Pei recently said that it would cost £800 in England at launch, which would translate to around $1,080 in US dollars. This is far and away the most expensive handset the company has ever released, as it has primarily been known formid-tier offerings. Pei says the higher cost accounts for "premium materials, major performance upgrades and software that really levels things up."
We don't have actual specs yet, but arecent leak certainly pointsto the kind of leveled up experience Pei was talking about. A reliable leaker suggested that it'll include a "flagship Snapdragon chipset" from Qualcomm and a new camera system with a triple-lens module on the rear. The battery is also reportedly on the larger side, with indications it'll likely exceed the 5,000 mAh mark. The Nothing Phone 2 shipped with a 4,700 mAh battery.
That's not the only product the company is bringing stateside. It's making someover-ear headphonesthat will be available to purchase for US and Canadian residents.
