The Nothing Phone 3 series could get yet another member. As per a report, the Nothing Phone 3a Lite is in development as a more affordable version of the standard Phone 3a model. While most details about the handset are under wraps, it is expected to launch below the aforementioned Phone 3a in the company's smartphone lineup. The purported Nothing Phone 3a Lite could be offered in a single RAM and storage configuration, and is tipped to arrive in two colour options.
Citing tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore, an XpertPick report claims that even after the launch of the Nothing Phone 3, the Carl Pei-led company isn't done with its flagship numbered series. It is reportedly set to receive a new member in the form of the purported Nothing Phone 3a Lite.
The publication also claims that the handset will be available in a single 8GB + 128GB RAM and storage configuration. Like many other Nothing handsets, it is expected to be offered in black and white colour options in India.
The report, however, mentions that there is a possibility that the company may introduce more storage variants or colourways in other markets. The Nothing Phone 3a Lite is expected to be launched in India and the global markets later this year.
Unfortunately, there is no word on the specifications of the purported handset. Since it is expected to be marketed below the Phone 3a in the company's lineup, it could come with similar or slightly inferior specifications.

For optics, the Nothing Phone 3a has a triple rear camera unit, comprising a 50-megapixel Samsung 1/1.57-inch main sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle shooter, and a 50-megapixel Sony 1/2.74-inch telephoto camera. It has a 32-megapixel front camera for selfies and video calls.
