This comes soon after the Phone 4a was reportedly received approval from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS).
The purported Nothing Phone 4a is now listed on the TDRA certification database, with the model number A069. The smartphone received approval from the UAE's telecom regulator on January 22. While the listing does not reveal any other details about the purported Nothing Phone 4a, the handset is expected to be launched in the country soon.
