Nothing's upcoming mid-rangers, the Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, have shown up on Geekbench with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC. The former comes with 8 GB of RAM and the latter with 12 GB.

Yesterday's leak told us how much the Nothing Phone (3a) and Nothing Phone (3a) Pro would cost in Europe. Most of its specs are all but confirmed thanks to a mix of leaks and teasers from Nothing. Now, a pair of Geekbench listings confirm how much memory each variant will launch with.

Starting with the Nothing Phone (3a), codename Nothing A059, it maxes out at 8 GB of system memory. This particular unit seems to be running Android 15 and scores 1,179 and 3,311 points in Geekbench 6.4's single and multicore tests, about how much a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 generally would.

Next, the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro, codename Nothing A059P, ups the RAM to 12 GB. Its score is slightly higher (1,209 single core, 3,325 multicore). This minor difference can be chalked down to run-to-run variance. Like its non-Pro variant, it too runs Android 15.

Nothing will unveil the Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro globally on March 4. This will mark the first generation where an a-branded Nothing phone comes before its numbered counterpart. There probably won't be one this time, but if the Nothing Phone (2a) is anything to go by, we might get to see a Plus version later this year.
