Looks like Nothing isn’t done for the year yet. After the success of the Phone (2a) and the buzz around the Phone (3a) series, a new model could soon join the lineup – the Nothing Phone 3a Lite. And yes, the “Lite” tag points to a more affordable option for those who love Nothing’s design but don’t want to spend flagship-level money.

As per the tipster Abhishekh Yadav, the device, listed under model number A001T, recently appeared on Geekbench – the usual place for early leaks. The listing shows it will run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300 chipset, paired with 8GB RAM and Android 15 right out of the box. Also Read: Looking for a New Phone? These 7 Under Rs 35,000 Are Worth It
In the tests, it scored 1,003 points in single-core and 2,925 in multi-core, which points to solid mid-range performance. It should handle everyday tasks, multitasking, and even light gaming without breaking a sweat.
Leaks suggest the Phone 3a Lite will come in a single 8GB + 128GB variant. Despite the “Lite” label, it’s expected to keep the transparent back and the Glyph LED lights – though maybe with fewer lighting zones to cut costs.
The Dimensity 7300 is built on a 4nm process, which means it’s not the most powerful chip out there, but it should strike a good balance between performance and battery life. Cooler performance and longer endurance could be what Nothing is focusing on with this model.
Nothing 3a Lite Nothing A001T will be powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 7300 SoC.

Design-wise, the Phone 3a Lite should feel familiar – flat edges, clean lines, and that signature minimalist Nothing look. As for launch, there’s no official word yet, but its appearance on Geekbench and earlier on India’s BIS certification site suggests it could be just weeks away.
If the rumours are right, the Phone 3a Lite could be priced below the Phone 3a’s Rs 22,999 tag, making it a compelling mid-range option that still carries that premium Nothing vibe.
