Along with Motorola, Nothing has also announced a price hike on one of its smartphones. Interestingly, while the price of their flagships and premium mid-rangers stays the same, the device that has been affected is the more recent mid-range Nothing Phone (3a) Lite.

Unlike other makers, who have hiked the price by Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000, Nothing has taken a different approach. They’ve hiked the price of the device by Rs 3,000, which has come as a surprise to many. Thankfully, the device is currently available to buy at its old price on Flipkart, but that may change once the old inventory runs out.
