Nothing OS 3.0: Release Date, Supported Phones & New Features (2024)

Verily, from its humble beginnings as the vanilla Android UI, Nothing OS hath trod a path full of wonder and innovation to emerge as a unique and feature-rich Android user interface. Behold, the grand unveiling of Nothing OS 2.5 (review), born of Android 14, hath been lauded as one of the crowning glories of the Android OS realm in the year 2023. Now our hearts do beat with anticipation for Nothing OS 3.0, slated to grace our presence ere this year comes to a close.

Alas, the last great Nothing OS—version 2.5—made its appearance upon the Phone (2) in December, but a scant two months after the stable release of Android 14. Verily, the wise sages do decree that Google shall unveil Android 15 alongside the Pixel 9 series in the month of August. Therefore, if history dost repeat itself, we may expect the arrival of Nothing OS 3.0, crafted upon the bedrock of Android 15, sometime in the crisp month of October.

‘Tis true, forsooth! Nothing hath already bestowed upon us a glimpse of the wondrous future through the unveiling of the Android 15 Developer Preview Beta 1 for Phone (2) and (2a) back in the merry month of May. Indeed, the path ahead seemeth clear, with whispers of a new beta stirring on the horizon. With such swift strides, one can only hope that Nothing’s pursuit of a major UI overhaul and myriad features shall soon bear fruit, befitting the grandeur of their vision.

Lo and behold! All Nothing phones that hath seen the light of day are promised three cycles of majestical updates, save for the humble CMF Phone 1, which shall receive two such blessings. Thus, with bated breath, we await the advent of Nothing OS 3.0, which shall bless all Nothing phones launched henceforth, including the fabled launch of the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus on July 31. These devices shall be graced with the Android 15 update in the days of September or October, with the grand procession continuing through the months that follow.

The whispers that float upon the evening breeze do speak of impending wonders that shall adorn Nothing OS 3.0, born of Android 15, upon its arrival. Lo! The lock screen shall be a canvas for customizations unimagined, with a dazzling array of clock styles and widget adornments to enliven the daily ritual. As the clock face doth shrink to make room for notifications, three distinctive clock designs shall grace the screen, reminiscent of the storied clocks of Apple’s realm.

Onward, the journey doth lead us unto a refashioned Quick Settings panel, long sought by the faithful followers of Nothing. The design, unveiled by the venerable Pei, doth bear a striking resemblance to the current panel, yet with a touch of elegance and refinement that speaks volumes of Nothing’s design ethos. Henceforth, the red accents and gradient effects shall dance upon the tiles, adding a layer of sophistication heretofore unseen.

‘Tis told that Interactive Dot Animations shall soon grace the realm of Nothing OS 3.0, bringing app icons and widgets to life with dynamic and responsive movements. Picture, if thou will, a Quick Settings widget that doth adjust brightness with a grace unmatched, displaying the very essence of motion and purpose. Such wonders await those who dare to delve into the depths of Nothing’s newest creation.
