Nothing released the Android 16-based Nothing OS 4.0 last month, and earlier this month released its first open beta for the Nothing Phone (3), Phone (2), Phone (2a) and Phone (2a) Plus. The Nothing Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro were abandoned, but the Nothing OS 4.0 open beta is finally available for these smartphones.

Nothing OS 4.0 Open Beta brings a new Nothing icon design to Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, as well as a “Stretch” camera preset developed in partnership with photographer Jordan Hemingway.

Nothing says “This preset enhances photos with deep shadows and extended highlights for a distinctive, cinematic look straight from the camera app.”
Additionally, Nothing OS 4.0 Open Beta comes with Lock Preview, which displays high-quality wallpapers on your phone’s lock screen. Lock Glimpses groups these wallpapers into nine categories, and can also display “periodic updates” and “useful content designed to enhance your experience” on the lock screen.

In the future, Lock Glimpse will let you display your photos on the lock screen. Nothing said this would happen soon without getting more specific.

Rest of the features in Nothing OS 4.0 Open Beta for Phone (3a) series remain the same as previously released Open Beta.

Those interested in trying the Nothing OS 4.0 Open Beta can head over to the source link below for installation instructions, but note that you’ll need to do so by November 7, as you won’t be able to join the beta program after this date.

It’s also worth noting that beta builds aren’t as stable as official builds and often contain bugs that can hamper the user experience, so it’s best to avoid installing beta software on your primary device.
