Nothing Teases ‘elite’ Performance With Snapdragon Chips In Phone (3a) Series
The Nothing Phone (3a) series is set to be unveiled next month and, ahead of its launch, Nothing has confirmed a switch to Snapdragon processors.
The Nothing Phone (2a) launched last year as a very good mid-range Android device, and its low price was helped by the use of a MediaTek chipset. But, for the sequel, Nothing is switch to Qualcomm.
In a post on Twitter/X, Nothing confirmed plans to use a Snapdragon chipset in the Nothing Phone (3a) series. The chip itself is unnamed, but Nothing teases “elite performance” from the new device. While that could be taken as a tease for the Snapdragon 8 Elite, that’s highly unlikely in a budget-conscious device.
Our perfect match for elite performance. Now powering up the (3a) Series.
Rumors have hinted that Nothing will be using the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 for its updated mid-range releases, a chip that’s plenty powerful, but better for the overall price compared to any 8-series Snapdragon chip.
