Nothing Phone 4a - a Triple-Camera 5G Mobile Phone with Glyph Interface

A display built for clarity:

The Phone (4a) carries a 6.78-inch Flexible AMOLED panel running at up to 120 Hz, with a 2720 x 1224 resolution and a peak brightness of 4,500 cd/m². The display covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut at 10-bit depth and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i at the front.

Triple-camera system with telephoto reach:

At the rear, the Phone (4a) houses three cameras: a 50 MP main lens with optical image stabilisation, a 50 MP periscope telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom and up to 70x digital zoom, and an 8 MP ultra-wide. Video recording goes up to 4K at 30 fps, and a 32 MP front camera handles video calls and selfies.

Battery and charging:

The built-in 5,080 mAh Li-Polymer battery is the largest Nothing has placed in an a-series device, with an estimated runtime of around 51 hours per charge. Wired 50W fast charging is supported; no charger is included in the box.

Nothing OS and Essential AI:

The phone ships with Nothing OS 4.1 built on Android 16, offering a clean, pared-back interface. Essential Space provides AI-assisted organisation tools for capturing, finding, and storing information, adapting to how the user works day to day.

Glyph Interface and build:

The Glyph Bar on the rear of the Phone (4a) is a programmable LED notification system that lets the user assign visual alerts to contacts, apps, and timers without needing to look at the screen. The phone is IP64 rated, making it fully dustproof and protected against water splashes from any direction.

Setup and Care

Getting started:

Insert your Nano-SIM using the supplied ejector tool and power on the device to begin the Nothing OS 4.1 setup process. The on-screen guide walks through language, Wi-Fi, and account sign-in steps in a few minutes.

Applying the screen protector:

A screen protector is included in the box. Clean the display with a soft, dry cloth before applying and smooth from the centre outward to avoid air bubbles under the film.

Charging the phone:

Use the included USB-C cable with a compatible 50W USB-C charger (not supplied) for fastest charging times. The battery supports 1,400 charge cycles, so regular daily charging will not significantly affect long-term battery capacity.

Cleaning and care:

The IP64 rating means the Phone (4a) handles water splashes and dust without issue. Wipe the body with a slightly damp cloth when needed and avoid using abrasive materials on the display or the Glyph Interface on the rear.
