August or September is the current target for Nothing’s CMF Phone 3 Pro, several months later than the launch cadence implied after the CMF Phone 2 Pro arrived in May 2025.
Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 is tipped to replace the Dimensity 7300 Pro, bringing about a 10% CPU gain while newer Cortex-A720 and A520 cores could improve efficiency.
A roughly 5,400 mAh battery and 45W charging are also rumored, up from 5,000 mAh on the previous model.
Nothing is said to keep a 120 Hz flat OLED display, stereo speakers and a triple rear camera, adding an unusual 50 MP telephoto alongside 50 MP main and 8 MP ultra-wide sensors.
An even cheaper Nothing phone is expected to launch before the CMF Phone 3 Pro, while the latest leak also says the frame will be plastic rather than the metal previously rumored.
