Islamabad, June 28, 2025: Ahead of its official launch event next week, Nothing has confirmed that its upcoming Phone 3 will include a feature missing from its predecessor — a telephoto camera.
Key Details
- 50MP Periscope Lens: Nothing says the Phone 3 will ship with a 50MP periscope telephoto camera, describing it as “built for creators.”
- Optical Zoom Level: The company has not yet revealed the exact optical zoom range (like 2x or 3x).
- Sample Shots Shared: Nothing has teased a few early sample images from the new telephoto lens — but the actual zoom level remains unclear.
- Macro Mode: Early hints suggest the new periscope lens might also double as a macro camera, similar to how the brand uses the Phone 3a’s telephoto setup.
- Carl Pei Teaser: Company founder Carl Pei also shared one of the first images shot on the new lens.
Nothing is expected to reveal full camera specs, pricing, and availability during its Phone 3 launch event next week.
