I took 500 photos with Nothing’s new “Pro” phone (ad-free)
Added 2025-03-05 16:55:10 +0000 UTCsighhh, I just realized that I put the (parentheses) in the wrong place during this video. It's Nothing Phone *(3a) Pro. Sorry, Nothing.
Anwho, I am proud of this video. After using my phone for a week, I scripted, shot, and edited the video in about 2.5 days. Plus, I didn't have to work until the early morning to finish it. That feels pretty good!
Overall, I love the hardware and software of the Phone (3a) Pro. It feels like a fashion accessory that I am proud to wear. For the most part, it has a capable camera, but sadly, there is still a lot of work to be done with the ultra-wide lens and video at night. Here are a few of my favorite and least favorite shots.

(I have no idea why this filter exists.)

So, what do you think of Phone (3a) Pro??

Same! And I’m not sure, can look today, but had to be around 1/30 maybe 1/15?? The train was moving pretty quickly.

The camera being schmick enough in the Pro is a bonus. Nothing continues there run of being the only phone maker atm that makes me go "ooo i kinda want that" (expect maybe also the Light Phone 3? but for entirely different reasons).

2025-03-05 18:36:43 +0000 UTCI have feelings about how it looks… it looks amazing and might be worth the switch to Android when my current contract runs out

2025-03-05 18:17:22 +0000 UTCYou know, it seems cameras on phones are so good today, it's almost boring. Now the picture depends mostly on the software that processes the image. Don't get me wrong - your photos are always a welcome sight, They are warm and passionate and just curious, But he phones, ugh, They're all the same now.
