Nothing has released yet another vague teaser for what could be a new smartphone, but this time the information shared includes a date and time: 10 a.m. GMT on March 4. The post, first shared to Nothing’s X account, doesn’t share many details — just a vague shape that some fans have already tied to the phone’s camera module, or perhaps its iconic glyph interface.

Nothing is no stranger to cryptic teasers; in fact, it’s one of the company’s preferred marketing methods. Nothing has a history of slowly doling out information in the weeks leading up to launch, and that technique has proven effective in building hype.

The thread is full of replies from fans comparing the image to existing phone cameras, while others interpreted the video to point to three rear cameras and the Nothing Phone 3. Nothing has yet to confirm whether its teasing a phone or not, but known tipster Max Jambor made a not-so-subtle post that says “Looks like SOM3THING exciting is coming on March 4!”

Last week, Nothing posted a teaser involving the Pokémon Arcanine. This ignited a flurry of speculation, with most analysts deciding it likely referred to a serial number — perhaps A059, given Arcanine’s Pokédex number — and many discovering a not-yet-published link to Indian retailer Flipkart.

Nothing released the Nothing Phone 2 on July 11, 2023 and the Nothing Phone 2a on March 12, 2024. The Nothing Phone 3 is expected to release sometime in March; each previous generation saw an announcement, followed by a release roughly a week later. If that pattern continues, you might be able to get your hands on this device sooner than you expect.

However, the main entries in the lineup — the Nothing Phone 1 and Nothing Phone 2 — were both released in summer. The Nothing Phone 3 could be announced in March, but may not be available until later. We can’t say for sure either way, but the March 4 event should reveal more details.

Here’s our closest look at the iPhone SE 4 yet
iPhone SE 4 leak by Majin Bu.

In recent months, there have been conflicting rumors about what to expect from the upcoming iPhone SE 4. However, the latest rumor may have clarified some of these uncertainties.

Leaker Majin Bu (via MacRumors) recently took to X to share mockup images (and a video) of the next budget iPhone. According to these images, the iPhone SE 4 will feature a traditional notch instead of the Dynamic Island that previous reports suggested. To the left of the notch, there appears to be a selfie camera and a single-lens rear camera. The images also indicate that the phone will have a glass back and an aluminum frame.

Samsung’s latest Unpacked event has wrapped up, and with it, we’ve been introduced to the Galaxy S25 series. As expected, the lineup includes the standard Galaxy S25, the middle-tier S25 Plus, and the flagship Galaxy S25 Ultra. Packed with impressive hardware like the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, AI-driven features, and camera enhancements, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is undoubtedly a powerful device.
But is it worth upgrading to right now? Depending on your current phone, you might find these updates more incremental than groundbreaking. There are compelling reasons to consider holding off until next year’s Galaxy S26 Ultra. Let’s break down why waiting might be the smarter move.

Nothing just dropped a cryptic teaser, and it involves Pokémon
The back of the Nothing Phone 2a Plus.

Nothing, the company behind the Nothing Phone series, is teasing a new product of some kind, but it's not clear exactly what it is. The teaser is just that of a Pokémon: Arcanine, the evolved form of Growlithe and number 59 of the original 150. The company shared the image with no other context, but that isn't really out of the ordinary for them.

Nothing is no stranger to cryptic teaser messages. The company teased the Nothing Phone 2a Plus with a similarly abstract photo, and another enigmatic post for the Nothing Phone 2. The use of a Pokemon is an odd choice, but it could be mean several things. Interpretations of the message include everything from a release date ending in nine (Arca-nine) or something to do with its Pokedex entry number of 59.
