Could the Nothing Phone 3 secretly be the best Android phone of 2025?

We’re nearing the halfway point of 2025, and there’s still a decent amount of major Android phone releases we’re anticipating. The Galaxy S25 Edge will hit store shelves by the end of the month, while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 should arrive later this summer. There’s also the Google Pixel 10 series and maybe new Edge phones from Motorola. And that’s not even mentioning any of phones that have already launched this year, including the Galaxy S25 series, the excellent Pixel 9a, and the OnePlus 13/13R.

Despite how packed 2025 has already been (and still remains), there’s one Android phone that may stand a very good chance of besting all of them: the Nothing Phone 3.
