So my cousin picked up the Nothing Phone 3 a few months ago, and honestly, it has been kind of a letdown. The hype was huge, but the processor just does not feel powerful enough for daily use. Apps take that extra second to open, gaming performance is choppy on high settings, and even scrolling through social media sometimes stutters.
Other than that, It heats up quicker than you would expect for the price, and battery life drops fast if you are multitasking. The design is beautiful, I’ll admit that, but what’s the use if it lags during simple stuff? For a phone that’s supposed to feel “premium, ” it just doesn’t live up to it. My cousin regretted spending that much and keeps saying it feels like a mid-range device available for a higher price range.
