British tech brand Nothing is preparing for its upcoming “Come to Play” launch event on July 1, where it will introduce two major products—the flagship Nothing Phone 3 and the company’s first over-ear headphones, Nothing Headphone 1. The event will be held in London and begin at 10:30 PM IST, with a live stream available on Nothing’s official YouTube channel.

The Nothing Phone 3 is expected to feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, promising better overall performance and more advanced AI capabilities. It will also be Nothing’s most supported device yet, offering five years of operating system updates and seven years of security patches.

Camera-wise, the smartphone is likely to include a triple-lens setup on the rear, with a 50MP periscope telephoto lens, a 50MP main sensor, and an ultra-wide sensor. The front camera will be a 32MP shooter. A new design element, called the Glyph Matrix, will replace the previous Glyph Interface, bringing a dot-matrix LED layout on the back, expected to offer customizable animations and potentially interactive features such as mini-games. The device is rumored to sport a 6.77-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 3000 nits peak brightness. It may come with 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of internal storage. Powering it all will be a 5150mAh battery, with support for 65W wired and 20W wireless charging.

Alongside the smartphone, Nothing will also introduce its first pair of over-ear headphones. Images of the Nothing Headphone 1 have already surfaced online, showcasing the brand’s signature transparent design. The headphones will feature square-shaped ear cups with rounded edges, a transparent circular panel on the exterior, and a cushioned, foldable headband for portability. The right cup is said to include two physical buttons, while the left features the label “Sound by KEF,” confirming a collaboration with British audio company KEF.

The headphones are expected to support Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and offer high-quality audio playback through AAC and LDAC codecs. Reports suggest they will deliver up to 80 hours of battery life when ANC is turned off. With both devices launching at the same event, Nothing is clearly expanding its product lineup with a strong focus on design, performance, and user experience.
