CMF Phone 3 Pro leaks are picking up steam, and the latest info points to Nothing’s sub-brand getting ready to drop something seriously eye-catching. New supply-chain renders show off a 6.8-inch 120Hz OLED display, Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor, and—get this—a periscope zoom camera at a mid-range price. That’s pretty wild for a company still carving out its spot in the crowded phone scene.

CMF Phone 3 Pro: Complete Leaked Specification Breakdown

Let’s get right to the point and see what these leaks really reveal. The 6.8-inch OLED screen apparently comes with a 120Hz refresh rate, which would be a big jump from the CMF Phone 1’s older LCD. If these specs pan out, you’re looking at a flagship-level display.

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 is especially intriguing. Qualcomm hasn’t officially rolled this chip out yet, but early numbers hint it’ll sit somewhere between the current 7s Gen 3 and 8s Gen 3. Basically, it looks like Qualcomm’s response to the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 series—good speed, friendlier on the wallet.

On the camera front, we’re talking a 50MP main sensor teamed up with what’s rumored to be a periscope telephoto lens. If that turns out to be true, it’s a big deal. Periscope cameras usually show up in phones costing ₹40,000 or more, not in CMF’s usual ₹15,000-25,000 sweet spot.

There’s also a 5,500mAh battery paired with 45W fast charging to keep you powered up. That’s a bigger battery than most flagships offer these days. And with a metal frame, it looks like Nothing wants to move past the all-plastic design of earlier CMF models.

How CMF Phone 3 Pro Stacks Against Mid-Range Rivals

So, how does it actually compare? With these rumored specs, CMF is clearly lining up against the Realme GT Neo 6 and Poco X7 Pro, both of which should land around the same time.

Feature	CMF Phone 3 Pro (Leaked)	Realme GT Neo 6	Poco X7 Pro
Display	6.8″ 120Hz OLED	6.7″ 120Hz AMOLED	6.67″ 120Hz AMOLED
Processor	Snapdragon 7s Gen 4	Dimensity 8300	Snapdragon 8s Gen 3
Main Camera	50MP + Periscope	50MP Triple	64MP Triple
Battery	5,500mAh, 45W	5,000mAh, 67W	5,100mAh, 67W

The periscope camera really sets the CMF apart. You won’t find one in similar phones from Realme or Poco at this price. Still, there’s a trade-off to consider—the Snapdragon Gen 4 chip likely lags behind Poco’s faster processor when it comes to sheer speed.

Leaked info also mentions stereo speakers, which lines up with Nothing’s focus on good audio in their premium series. Most other brands are still sticking with a single speaker at the bottom.

The Periscope Camera Problem CMF Might Actually Solve

Here’s something that most folks are missing: periscope cameras under ₹20,000 could shake things up. Usually, if you want real optical zoom over 3x, you’ve got to shell out at least ₹50,000. Models like iPhone 15 Pro, Galaxy S24 Ultra, and Pixel 8 Pro still run the show here.

CMF’s rumored periscope setup supposedly brings 5x optical zoom to the table. Now, that’s not earth-shattering for a flagship, but it’s a pretty big deal at this price point. Most people with mid-range phones rely on digital zoom, which looks terrible if you push past 2x.

Also, the AI-powered zoom processing mentioned in supply-chain leaks hints that Nothing is taking a page from their flagship Phone (2a). Same team, similar photo tech—just on more affordable hardware.

But let’s be real for a second: periscope modules aren’t cheap. If CMF includes one, they have to cut corners somewhere else. The leaked 8GB RAM spec is lower than what some rivals give you—12GB is becoming common. Storage starts at 128GB, and there’s no word on a microSD slot.

According to Android Authority, supply-chain insiders say CMF wants to launch the base model at ₹18,999. That’s a huge price gap—at least ₹30,000 less—compared to other phones with periscope cameras.
