Nothing Phone 3 to be made in India, company revels ahead of July 1 launch

British consumer technology brand Nothing has announced that its upcoming flagship smartphone, the Nothing Phone 3, will be manufactured locally in India. In a press note, the company confirmed that production will take place at its manufacturing facility in Chennai. Nothing also revealed plans to strengthen its post-sales support network across India.
The Phone 3 will be launched at the company's 'Come to Play' event on July 1. Alongside the smartphone, Nothing is also set to unveil its first pair of over-ear headphones, dubbed the Nothing Headphone 1.
Nothing 'Come to Play' event: Details
Date: July 1
Time: 10:30 pm (IST)
Venue: London, UK
Product announcements: Nothing Phone 3, Headphone 1
Nothing Phone 3: What to expect
At last month's Android Show: I/O Edition, Nothing CEO Carl Pei offered a brief glimpse of the Phone 3, describing it as the company's first 'true flagship.' He suggested that the device will feature a more premium design, likely incorporating materials such as metal and glass.
Since then, leaked images of the Phone 3 have surfaced online, revealing a triple-camera set-up on the back that resembles the arrangement seen on the Phone 3a Pro. The images also suggest that the brand will retain its trademark transparent rear panel. However, the signature Glyph lighting system appears to be absent—aligning with Nothing's earlier statement that it has 'killed the Glyph Interface.'
Instead, Nothing is expected to introduce a dot-matrix display on the back of the phone, similar to what ASUS offers on its ROG phones. This display could potentially support custom animations and basic interactions.
In terms of specifications, the Phone 3 is likely to feature a 6.77-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of up to 3,000 nits. It may be powered by either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or the newer Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage.
The camera set-up is expected to include a 50MP main sensor in a triple-camera configuration, along with a 32MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. Powering the device will likely be a 5,000mAh battery, with support for 50W wired and 20W wireless charging.

Bamboo Farming Holds Promise to Uplift Vidarbha's Farmers: Experts

Nagpur: Senior scientist and agroforestry expert Vijay Illorkar on Friday said bamboo farming has immense potential to transform the agricultural landscape of Vidarbha, offering farmers a sustainable and profitable alternative. He was speaking at the first bamboo harvest at the Agroforestry Research Farm of Dr Punjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth (PDKV). Illorkar, who has been leading the study on bamboo since 2010, said that the university has submitted 15 key research-based recommendations to the state govt over the years, which have been implemented through various policies. Despite being a traditional resource, bamboo cultivation demands specialised skills. The tools used are still traditional, but training is necessary, as general labourers often cannot operate them effectively," he said. Illorkar emphasised the need to match bamboo varieties with available labour capacities, and also stressed the importance of fumigation and post-harvest handling. Adding to the discussion, bamboo entrepreneur Ashish Kaswa, who out of his 27 cultivation sites, collaborated with the PDKV and harvested the plant at the facility, said, "The plant has the natural ability to absorb toxic elements such as arsenic from water and convert them into harmless salts," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending Local Enterprise Accounting Software [Click Here] Accounting ERP Click Here Undo Kaswa said that this could come in handy for Vidarbha, where many districts have high alkaline water. Additionally, bamboo retains 70–80% moisture in its early stages, requiring proper awareness to avoid premature harvesting. Despite its ecological and economic value, challenges in training labour, high harvesting costs, and misinformation have hindered widespread adoption. "Bamboo, unlike other crops, requires specific knowledge and labour training, which most daily-wage farm workers lack," said Kaswa adding that current harvesting costs of Rs2,000 per tonne need to be brought down to Rs 1,200 to make the venture viable. Historically, bamboo's use in India was curbed by the 1927 Forest Control Act imposed by the British, who restricted its cultivation and trade. "The Britishers labelled it 'poor man's timber' and psychologically distanced even the affluent Indians from its use," said Kaswa, adding that bamboo played a vital role in Indian culture, from surgical procedures to cremation. However, in 2017, bamboo was finally removed from the Forest Act by the Central govt.

Wirtz wants to 'win everything' for Liverpool after record move

Florian Wirtz said he wants to win it all at Liverpool after completing a blockbuster move from Bayer Leverkusen on Friday, which could reportedly rise to a Premier League record fee. HT Image Reports in England said the Premier League champions will pay an initial £100 million for Wirtz, comfortably surpassing their own record outlay, with a further £16 million in performance-related add-ons making it a British record deal. However, German media suggested the fee could be even higher, starting at 130 million euros with add-ons taking it to 150 million euros. One of European football's elite young stars, Wirtz has been hailed as one of the "best in the world" by former Leverkusen coach and ex-Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso, who is the new boss of Real Madrid. "I would like to win everything every year!" Wirtz told the club's website. "In the end, we want to be successful. Last season they won the Premier League so my goal is for sure to win it again and also to go further in the Champions League. I'm really ambitious." The 22-year-old played a crucial role in Leverkusen's greatest season as they claimed a first-ever Bundesliga title and the German Cup in 2023/24 without losing a single game under Alonso. Their only defeat that season, during which Wirtz was crowned Bundesliga player of the year, came in the Europa League final to Atalanta, denying Leverkusen a memorable treble. Bayern Munich restored their grip on the German game last season, with Leverkusen a distant second, and Wirtz is joining an exodus from the BayArena. Netherlands defender Jeremie Frimpong has already made the move from Leverkusen to Liverpool last month. "I'm really excited to have a new adventure in front of me," added Wirtz, who turned down the option of joining Bayern for the move to England. "This was also a big point of my thoughts: that I want to have something completely new, to go out of the Bundesliga and to join the Premier League." After largely keeping their powder dry in the transfer market during Arne Slot's first season in charge, the Reds are splashing out to strengthen a side that romped to a record-equalling 20th English top-flight title. Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez is poised to make the move to Anfield in a £40 million deal. Liverpool have also been linked with Newcastle striker Alexander Isak and Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi. Where Wirtz's fits into Slot's plans remains to be seen. He largely played behind a central striker at Leverkusen and has operated from a wider role for Germany. A return of 57 goals and 65 assists in 197 games for Leverkusen is evidence that he carries a threat both as a creator and a goalscorer. "The people say I'm a creative player, and I hope I can bring this creativity to the team and also the joy on the pitch," said Wirtz. "I try to make assists, goals and run for the team to defend. I hope I can just make the team one step better." Liverpool are already blessed with an abundance of forward options, with Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo all offering a goal threat. However, Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and Federico Chiesa now face even stiffer competition to get into Slot's starting line-up, raising the prospect of Liverpool selling some of that trio to free up further transfer resources. kca/smg/ea This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.

'I spoke also with some players who played there and they told me that it's perfect for me and every pitch is perfect, you can enjoy every game. I'm really looking forward to playing my first game," the German added. Liverpool roped in the full-back Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen in order to replace the departing Trent Alexander-Arnold, who opted to join Spanish giants Real Madrid last week. Frimpong joined a strong Dutch contingent at Liverpool as he follows the footsteps of Virgil Van Dijk, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch at the Merseyside club, helmed by another Dutchman Arne Slot. Frimpong will compete with Conor Bradley for the role of right back at Anfield. First Published: June 21, 2025, 00:41 IST
