The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro is now official in the Philippines. It arrives alongside the Nothing Phone (4a), but the Pro version focuses more on everyday upgrades with more capable hardware, especially in the camera and display.
It still carries the same identity the brand is known for, but this version feels more dialed in. Instead of just standing out visually, it puts more focus on how the phone performs in everyday use.
Design and build
The Phone (4a) Pro keeps Nothing’s signature transparent design, but the layout looks more refined. The camera system and Glyph lighting are now arranged in a more unified panel, giving the back a cleaner look.
It uses an aluminum unibody with flat sides, making it feel solid in the hand. At around 8mm thin, it stays comfortable to hold even with the larger footprint. You also get IP65 dust and water resistance, which adds some level of protection for everyday use.
Glyph Matrix
Nothing continues to build on its Glyph system, now updated into a more advanced Glyph Matrix. It uses a larger lighting area, making notifications easier to recognize even when the phone is face down. You can still customize how it lights up for calls, alerts, and timers, which adds a bit of function to the design.

Display
The Phone (4a) Pro features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 1260 x 2800 resolution and a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate. Brightness is one of its stronger points. With a peak of 5000 nits, the screen stays visible outdoors even under direct sunlight.

Performance
The phone runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, paired with up to 12GB of RAM. For everyday use, it feels quick and stable. It also manages heat properly. Even during longer use like gaming or recording videos, the phone does not get uncomfortably warm.

Camera
The camera setup is one of the main highlights. It sports a 50MP Sony main camera with OIS and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom. In real use, the Zoom is actually useful. It makes it easier to capture subjects from a distance without losing too much detail. There is also a 32MP front camera that is wide enough for group selfies.
Battery and charging
The Phone (4a) Pro is equipped with a 5080mAh battery. It comfortably lasts a full day with regular use, including social media, video streaming, and light gaming. Charging is handled by 50W fast charging, which is quick enough for short top ups. There is no wireless charging support.
