The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro sits in the mid-range segment, with a strong focus on its aluminium build. It features a 6.8-inch display (2800×1260), a 5,080 mAh battery, and is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, with base variants starting at 8GB RAM and 128GB storage.

Design-wise, this is probably where the phone shines the most. The aluminium unibody makes a real difference. Both the frame and the back panel use aluminium, and it gives the device a sturdier, more premium feel compared to older models.

The display is a 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with a 1260×2800 resolution and roughly 440 ppi. It supports a 144Hz refresh rate and can hit up to 5,000 nits of peak brightness. 

The device features a triple rear camera setup, comprising a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP periscope lens with 3.5x optical zoom (and up to 140x digital zoom), and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. It is powered by the TrueLens Engine 4, developed by Nothing in collaboration with Google, and includes Ultra XDR along with an AI night mode designed to process low-light images more quickly. Video recording supports 4K at 30fps.

The device is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor and operates with an improved cooling system, which helps maintain stable performance during regular use. It runs on Nothing OS 4.1 based on Android 16. Battery performance is sufficient for a full day under typical usage, supported by a 5,080 mAh battery, or 5,400 mAh in some markets. The phone supports 50W fast charging, allowing for relatively quick recharging, although it does not include wireless charging.
