Nothing Phone (3) screen protectors

Nothing Phone (3) Cases & Screen Protectors: Complete Guide

MEZON

The Nothing Phone (3) is Nothing’s flagship, pairing a 6.67-inch high-resolution AMOLED display with Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a four-camera 50MP system and the new Glyph Matrix interface. MEZON’s current range for this model is focused on the screen, with five different protector styles. Here is how they compare—and what to look for if you are also choosing a case elsewhere.

1. Confirm the exact model

Nothing’s Phone (3), Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro use different accessory fitments. Check Settings → About phone and make sure your device is Phone (3).

2. Why the Phone (3) display deserves careful protection

Phone (3) uses a 6.67-inch flexible AMOLED display at 1260 × 2800 resolution, up to 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness up to 4500 nits. It is one of the most important parts of the device—and one of the most exposed.

  • 6.67-inch flexible AMOLED: Large enough that a scratch or chip becomes difficult to ignore.
  • 120Hz refresh: Protector quality and installation should preserve normal touch response.
  • 4500-nit peak brightness: Clear protectors are useful if you want to retain the original display appearance.
  • Snapdragon 8s Gen 4: Flagship-level performance encourages heavy daily use.
  • 5150mAh battery: Designed for sustained everyday use, with fast wired charging.
  • 15W wireless and 5W reverse wireless charging: Case choice matters if you later add a case from another source.
  • IP68: Strong dust/water resistance helps against the environment but does not stop scratches.
  • Four 50MP cameras: A case with proper rear-camera protection is worth prioritising even though MEZON’s current Phone (3) collection is screen-protector focused.

3. What to look for in a Phone (3) case

MEZON’s live Phone (3) collection currently lists screen protectors rather than cases. If you buy a case elsewhere, look for:

  • exact Phone (3) fit rather than Phone (3a) or 3a Pro;
  • raised protection around the camera area;
  • screen-edge clearance so the case does not lift your protector;
  • wireless-charging compatibility if you use the phone’s wireless charging;
  • grippy sides for a phone weighing about 218g.

4. Five screen protector options from MEZON

Rather than one “best” protector, Phone (3) owners can choose according to feel and use case.

4.1. Ultra-clear film

The 3-pack ultra-clear film is the most straightforward option if you want a thin transparent layer with a glossy screen finish.

4.2. Anti-glare matte film

The 3-pack matte film reduces reflections and makes fingerprints less visible. It is useful for outdoor use or bright offices, with a slight change to the original glossy look.

4.3. Hydrogel film

The 3-pack hydrogel film is flexible and designed for close edge-to-edge coverage while remaining very thin.

4.4. Case-friendly tempered glass

The 2-pack case-friendly tempered glass combines 9H glass with additional perimeter clearance for closely fitted cases.

4.5. Full-cover tempered glass

The 2-pack full-cover tempered glass extends farther towards the screen edges for a more complete hard-glass surface.

5. Which protector fits your priorities?

Protector Main advantage Best for
Ultra-clear film Very thin with a glossy transparent finish Users who want a simple film layer with minimal visual change
Matte film Reduces reflections and visible fingerprints Bright environments and users who prefer a less glossy screen
Hydrogel film Flexible, close-fitting and edge-to-edge Minimal thickness and easy case compatibility
Case-friendly tempered glass Hard 9H glass with extra perimeter clearance Tightly fitted cases
Full-cover tempered glass Broader hard-glass coverage Users who prefer a rigid glass feel and more edge coverage

If you are unsure, start with how you want the screen to feel. Film keeps the setup thinner; glass feels harder and more like the original display surface. Matte film is the exception—it intentionally changes the finish to reduce glare.

6. Pairing a screen protector with a case

Because MEZON currently focuses on screen protection for Phone (3), you may pair one of these protectors with a third-party case. The safest combinations are:

  • tight case: ultra-clear film, hydrogel or case-friendly glass;
  • case with generous screen-edge clearance: any of the five options;
  • maximum glare reduction: matte film;
  • hard-glass feel: case-friendly or full-cover tempered glass.

7. Installation tips for a cleaner result

Even the best protector can look disappointing if dust or poor alignment gets underneath it. A few extra minutes of preparation usually make the biggest difference.

  • Wash and dry your hands before starting.
  • Work on a clean, stable surface away from open windows and fans.
  • Clean the display thoroughly with the supplied cleaning materials.
  • Use the dust-removal sticker to pick up any remaining particles.
  • Check the top, bottom and camera/sensor alignment before applying the protector fully.
  • For film protectors, apply progressively rather than pressing the whole surface down at once.
  • For tempered glass, do a dry alignment check first and lower the glass evenly onto the screen.
  • Avoid repeatedly lifting and reapplying the protector, as this can introduce dust and reduce adhesion.
  • After installation, test fingerprint unlocking. If recognition is less consistent, re-register your fingerprint with the protector fitted.
  • If you also use a case, fit the protector first and then check that the case edge does not push against it.

9. FAQ: Nothing Phone (3) screen protection

Does MEZON currently sell a Phone (3) case?

The current Phone (3) collection is focused on screen protectors. If you use a third-party case, check edge clearance carefully.

What is the best option if I hate fingerprints?

Matte film makes fingerprints less visible and also reduces reflections.

What is the thinnest-feeling option?

Ultra-clear film and hydrogel both add very little thickness. Hydrogel is the more flexible edge-to-edge choice.

Which glass is better with a case?

Case-friendly tempered glass leaves more clearance around the outside of the display.

Does IP68 mean the screen cannot be damaged?

No. IP68 relates to water and dust ingress, not scratches or impact damage to the display.
