Preorder the new Nothing Phone 3 at Amazon and get double the storage and $100 off

Amazon Prime Day kicks off next week on Tuesday, July 8, but one of the best early mobile offers I’ve seen is already here. That’s right — you don’t need to be a Prime member to snag these savings, and this smartphone is already under $1,000. 

The new Nothing Phone 3 just launched (seriously, our expert is still in London post-launch party), and Amazon already has a tempting preorder offer.

If you preorder the Nothing Phone 3 on Amazon, you can scoop up the 512GB model for $799. That’s a $100 discount on the 16 + 512GB model, and a chance to swipe up double the storage for the same price as the 12+ 256GB model, which is also available for preorder for $799. You save $100, get twice the storage, and get the new Nothing Phone 3 when it ships on July 15. 

Expert Prakhar Khanna says that Nothing’s new flagship phone is the brand’s most expensive and risky product yet. “At $799, the Nothing Phone 3 no longer undercuts its midrange competitors. Instead, the handset takes on the likes of the iPhone Pro, Pixel Pro, and Galaxy S phones of the world with a striking design, functional AI features, and fine software tuning,” he says.

Khanna got a first-look at the new device at Nothing’s launch party in London this week, and he says it’s “poised to make a splash” in a competitive mobile market. 

At 218 grams, Khanna says the new Phone 3 isn’t the heaviest flagship phone. It features flat sides with curved corners and a glass design that he says feels ergonomic to hold. It also supports IP68 dust and water resistance.

The phone features a 6.67-inch LTPS AMOLED display, which goes from 30Hz to 120Hz instead of going all the way down to 1Hz like LTPO panels. Khanna says the latter is more battery efficient, but that the Phone 3’s 5,150mAh battery should last a whole day.

Unlike other flagships, the Nothing Phone 3 is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, which doesn’t have the new Oryon CPU cores. The Nothing flagship features three 50MP cameras on the back and a 50MP selfie camera on the front. The Nothing Phone 3 also supports TrueLens Engine 4, which is said to process photos 125% faster than the previous Phone 2. It also helps improve HDR performance, real-time scene segmentation, lower noise, and smoother motion.  

It runs Android 15-based Nothing OS and is promised to get Android 16 later this year. Khanna says it’s also housing some handy AI features, like Essential Space, which holds everything that you record with the Essential Key, plus new features like Flip to Record, which records and transcribes audio recordings when you put the phone face down.

How I rated this deal 

This $100 savings offer translates to 11% savings, which isn’t typically a great deal. However, this phone releases July 15 and is brand new to the market, so it’s a first-time discount on a freshly launched product. Plus, when you factor in that the phone is already under $1,000 and the larger, 512GB model is selling for $799, it’s a pretty good bargain. While the 256GB model isn’t on sale, you can take advantage of a double the storage offer by grabbing the 512GB model for the same $799 price, boosting your storage and essentially saving you $100. Due to these factors, I’ve bumped up this first-time offer to a 4/5 Editor’s deal rating.
