MySmartPrice86/100Mar 2024
A polished, mass-market Nothing that feels close to the Phone (2) for far less.
-
Gadgets360 (NDTV)80/100Mar 2024
Slower than rivals like the Poco X6 Pro, but its design and software make it a fun pick.
-
91mobiles80/100Mar 2024
A wallet-friendly phone that drops flagship extras; cameras capable if less flexible than Realme 12 Pro+.
-
Digit67/100Mar 2024
Smooth, clean software under Rs 25,000; looks will split opinion.
-
India Today80/100Mar 2024
Gets almost everything right, at a better-than-expected price.
-
The Indian Express80/100Mar 2024
Aimed at younger mainstream buyers rather than power users.
-
GSMArena84/100Mar 2024
Nothing back to budget roots, keeping much of the Phone (2) feel.
-
Notebookcheck87/100Apr 2024
Nothing's first cheap phone keeps much of the flagship kit, Glyph lights included (review page not read).
