Amazon beats Nothing at its own game with this brilliant early Black Friday Nothing Phone 3 deal

Black Friday proper is a few weeks away, but we’re already seeing some great deals on the best Android phones on the market; the best I’ve seen so far might be for the weird and wonderful Nothing Phone 3, which you can now get for $678.99 at Amazon US and £629 at Amazon UK.

In a rare alignment of the Black Friday deals cosmos, the Nothing Phone 3 is discounted in both its 256GB variant and 512GB variant in both the US and UK. In the UK specifically, Amazon has sneakily undercut Nothing’s own Black Friday sale prices by £20 on the model with 256GB of storage and £30 on the model with 512GB of storage. Let’s take a look at the deals.

But what you’ll notice first about the Nothing Phone 3 is its one-of-a-kind design – this is a properly unique-looking phone that builds on the qualities of its predecessors, with intentionally misaligned cameras and a quirky rear-mounted “glyph display” dot-matrix interface.

The Nothing Phone 3 doesn’t have quite the same processing power as its mainstream rivals, but does offer a lot for even its usual retail price of $799 / £799 / AU$1,509. As well as the aforementioned triple camera system, it has a 6.67-inch display, a 5,150mAh battery, and support for 65W charging.

We went hands-on with the Nothing Phone 3 just after launch, finding it to be an “abstract, asymmetrical vibe” of a handset. Nothing fans also swear by the clean and simple Nothing OS Android wrapper, though the brand has faced some controversy recently for its handling of the software experience. Still, this remains a strong contender from a quirky outsider brand.
