Nothing reveals launch date for its next flagship phone

Nothing, the company that makes affordable, semi-transparent smartphones, has a new flagship coming, and now we have the exact date.

In an invite sent to the media, the company revealed that Nothing Phone 3 will launch on July 1st at 6 p.m. BST (that's 1 p.m. ET).

The company also added a cryptic, pixelated image and shared an animation that tell us very little. However, we know a little bit about the phone from previous rumors and reports.

First, the official stuff: Nothing CEO Carl Pei said last month that Nothing Phone 3 will cost around £800 (that's about €949 or $1,081 at today's exchange rate, but expect significantly different prices depending on the market). Besides that, Pei said that the phone will have "major performance upgrades," revamped software, and will be made of premium materials.

More precisely (but less certainly), a leaker said yesterday that Nothing Phone 3 will be available in black or white (no surprise there, given previous Nothing phones mostly come in these colors), and in two variants: One with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and the other with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. The same source says the pricing will be $799/$899, depending on the variant.

We'll find out more in the weeks to come, and we'll follow the launch on July 1 to bring you all the news about Nothing's new flagship.
