Nothing Phone 3a series will be manufactured in India, the company announced on Monday. The Carl Pei-led UK based smartphone firm is set to launch a couple of new midrange handsets in India and global markets in the coming weeks, and they will succeed the Nothing Phone 2a lineup that was introduced last year. According to recent reports, the Nothing Phone 3a series might feature a dedicated button that could allow users to quickly launch the camera button, just like Apple's iPhone 16 series.
