Nothing is preparing Phone (3a) Lite with Dimensity 7300 chip and Android 15
By ForGeeks
It was leaked earlier this month that Nothing is working on a Phone (3a) Lite smartphone, and now that speculation has another confirmation. The company’s new device has been spotted on the Geekbench platform, indicating that a lightweight version will be released soon.
The new device has a model number of Nothing A001T and is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor coupled with 8GB of RAM. The smartphone initially comes with Android 15.
In Geekbench benchmarks, the Phone (3a) Lite scored 1,003 points in single-core mode and 2,925 points in multi-core mode. While the Dimensity 7300 name may sound like an upgrade over the Dimensity 7200 Pro in the Nothing Phone (2a), the situation is a bit more complicated. The Dimensity 7300 is slightly less powerful but more power efficient than the 7200 Pro. It uses four 2.5GHz Cortex-A78 cores, while the 7200 Pro has the more modern 2.8GHz Cortex-A715 cores.
Main differences between the chips:Dimensity 7300 gets four Cortex-A78 (2.5GHz) cores, Mali-G615 MP2 graphics and an improved APU 655 neural processor. It features lower power consumption and supports LPDDR5 RAM at 3200 MHz. The chip also supports cameras up to 200MP with 4K HDR video recording, UFS 3.1 storage, and Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4.
The Dimensity 7200, on the other hand, offers slightly better gaming performance thanks to the Mali-G610 MP4 GPU, but falls behind in power efficiency.
According to previous leaks, the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite will come in a single configuration — 8GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage.
