The Nothing Phone 3 might have the weirdest camera design out there

Earlier this month, I wrote about a leaked image of what was rumored to be the Nothing Phone 3. That image showed a design with a translucent back and three center-aligned cameras. But a new set of supposed Nothing Phone 3 images reveal a different design — with one of the wildest camera layouts I’ve ever seen.

Renders from Android Headlines show a phone with a translucent back but three cameras in a weirdly separated layout. Instead of a neat triangle like on Pro iPhones or the camera bar on Pixels, these renders show two cameras lined up next to each other and another that’s in the corner of the phone and not really aligned with anything else. It’s kind of like the bold camera layout for the Nothing 3A Pro, but even bolder.

Details from teases directly from Nothing indicate that these renders could be representative of the real deal. Yesterday, for example, Nothing posted an image of the Phone 3’s 50MP periscope lens on X, and its placement and design appear to match up with one of the cameras in the renders from Android Headlines. Nothing has also teased something it calls the “Glyph Matrix” on the top-right corner of the phone, and Android Headlines’ renders include an element that looks like it could be the Glyph Matrix in that same spot.
