Ahead of the expected release of the Nothing Phone (2a) Community Edition, details about the upcoming Nothing OS 3.0 update have surfaced, courtesy of Carl Pei, the CEO himself.
He shared a few new things Nothing is planning to bring on its third iteration of the operating system. This will include a choice to select from multiple lock screen options.
The default layout shows only the time, date, and day on the lock screen. However, it will be accompanied by two new customizable options on the Nothing OS 3.0.
The first is the “Clock + Widget” option that will allow users to add three widgets—weather, quick actions, and date—in the lock screen alongside a digital clock made of dots.
For those seeking a more information-dense experience, there will be a second option called “Expanded Widget Area.” It will show an analog clock with a large date tile, along with widgets for quick actions, weather, and contacts.
Beyond lock screen customization, Pei also hinted at an “Interactive Dot Animation” feature. Although details are scarce, the image shared by Pei reveals it will include three layers—input image, live interaction, and final output—suggesting dynamic animations within the user interface.
The update is also expected to introduce a revamped native gallery app and a dedicated community app.
Nothing OS 3.0 will be available for the Nothing Phone (1), Nothing Phone (2), and the upcoming Phone (2a). The latest reveal by the man himself aligns with Pei’s usual strategy of using social media platforms to generate buzz for upcoming products.
Carl Pei has also confirmed that the official announcement for Nothing OS 3.0 is slated for September. These initial leaks or teasers, whatever you prefer to call them, give us an idea of what can we expect with Nothing OS 3.0.
