-The Nothing Phone (4a) series is Nothing's third generation mid-range Android devices, launched in March 2026. The series was Not introduced with two models - the base Phone (4a) and the Phone (4a) Pro, which continues the naming convention from the initial [[hardware:phone_3a_series|Phone (3a) series]] devices. The design difference between both models is significant, with the Phone (4a) Pro featuring a larger [[software:glyph_interface#glyph_matrix|Glyph Matrix]] while the Phone (4a) includes a new type of [[software:glyph_interface|Glyph Interface]] called the "[[software:glyph_interface#glyph_bar|Glyph Bar]]". The Pro is also the first Nothing device to feature a solid metal back panel, with only a small transparent portion around the camera and [[software:glyph_interface#glyph_matrix|Glyph Matrix]].+The Nothing Phone (4a) series is Nothing's third generation mid-range Android devices, launched in March 2026.

 +The Phone (4a) was Nothing's most successful launch to date, with more than 2x the expected demand. With this came stock limitation issues, causing some frustration with potential buyers, which resulted in a social post statement from Akis who stated it should be resolved by the end of May.((https://x.com/AkisEvangelidis/status/2049143352730198086))
