London brandStrong UK availability

Since 2003Over 20 years in the category

Nothing has built a genuine UK following — a London-founded company with a distinctive transparent design language, the Glyph Interface lighting, and a near-stock Android experience. If you've bought into the Nothing aesthetic, you'll want a screen protector that doesn't undermine it: clean edges, high optical clarity, no ugly cutout borders. The good news is that every Nothing phone to date has a flat display, which makes protector choice refreshingly straightforward — no curved-edge complications, no foldable mechanism.

This page covers the whole Nothing range available in the UK in 2026 — the current Phone (3), the mid-range Phone (2a) and (2a) Plus, the Phone (2), the original Phone (1), and the budget CMF Phone sub-brand. Every Amazon link below carries our affiliate tag, but rankings are never paid.

Best protectors for the current Nothing range

Top pickNothing Phone (3)

Nothing Phone (3) — Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit

The Nothing Phone (3) is the brand's most ambitious phone — a genuine flagship-tier device with a flat OLED display, an under-display fingerprint sensor, and the evolved Glyph design. Because the display is flat, protector choice is simple. Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit is our top pick: 9H tempered glass, the alignment frame that makes installation a sixty-second job, a real oleophobic coating, and case-friendly recessed edges. The under-display fingerprint sensor reads reliably through it — verified. Around £12-15 for a two-pack on Amazon UK.

If Spigen doesn't have current stock for the Phone (3) (Nothing's release cadence sometimes runs ahead of accessory makers), Whitestone and several specialist brands produce Phone (3) glass. Avoid the cheapest unbranded options — they tend to have imprecise camera and sensor cutouts that look wrong against Nothing's careful design.

Top pickNothing Phone (2a) / (2a) Plus

Nothing Phone (2a) and (2a) Plus — Spigen or amFilm

The Phone (2a) and (2a) Plus are Nothing's mid-range hit — the phones that took the brand from cult curiosity to genuine volume in the UK. They have flat OLED displays and under-display fingerprint sensors, same straightforward protector situation as the Phone (3). Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit is the premium pick at around £11-13 for a two-pack. amFilm's three-pack at around £8 is the value alternative — perfectly good glass, slightly less durable oleophobic coating, and the multi-pack suits a phone at this price point.

The Phone (2a) and (2a) Plus use the same screen dimensions, so protectors are generally cross-compatible — but check the listing, because camera cutout positions differ slightly between the two.

Top pickNothing Phone (2)

Nothing Phone (2)

The Phone (2) was Nothing's first true flagship attempt and remains a popular device in the UK second-hand market and among early adopters who haven't upgraded. Flat OLED, under-display fingerprint sensor. Protector inventory is mature and prices have settled. Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit for Phone (2) is the pick at around £10-12, with amFilm and Whitestone as alternatives. This is a phone where the value calculation favours a quality two-pack — buy once, keep the spare.

A Phone (2)-specific note: the slightly larger 6.7-inch display means full-coverage protectors are common in listings. Stick with case-friendly recessed-edge versions to avoid lifting at the corners under a Nothing official case or third-party clear case.

Nothing Phone (1) and the CMF sub-brand

Top pickNothing Phone (1)

Nothing Phone (1) — the one that started it

The Phone (1) was Nothing's debut — the phone that announced the brand in 2022 with its transparent back and Glyph lights. It's now several years old but remains in plenty of UK pockets and circulates actively on the used market. Protector inventory has thinned but Spigen, amFilm, and several specialist brands still produce Phone (1) glass. At this age, the value pick is the right call: amFilm three-pack tempered glass at around £7-8. Don't overspend protecting a phone this far into its lifecycle.

The Phone (1) has the same flat-display simplicity as every later Nothing phone, so installation is straightforward with any alignment-frame product.

Budget sub-brandCMF Phone

CMF Phone 1 & CMF Phone 2 Pro

CMF by Nothing is the company's budget sub-brand — the CMF Phone 1 and CMF Phone 2 Pro deliver Nothing's design sensibility at aggressively low prices, sold heavily through Amazon UK and as SIM-free bargains. At the CMF price point, the protector logic is straightforward: a budget multi-pack. amFilm and Supershieldz both produce CMF Phone tempered glass at around £6-8 for a multi-pack. Spigen has more limited CMF coverage. There's no need to spend more — a CMF Phone doesn't justify a premium protector, and the budget glass protects perfectly well against the scratches that matter.

Inventory for CMF models is thinner than the main Nothing line and sometimes lags new releases. If your exact CMF model isn't covered, a universal protector matched to the screen size in inches is an acceptable fallback.

Picking the right protector · For Nothing specifically

How to choose

Every Nothing phone has a flat display — this is good news

Unlike Samsung's curved Galaxy Ultra displays, every Nothing phone to date — Phone (1), (2), (2a), (2a) Plus, (3), and the CMF models — uses a flat display. That means conventional flat tempered glass works perfectly, with none of the edge-lifting complications that plague curved screens. Any quality 9H tempered glass with an alignment frame will install cleanly and stay put.

The Glyph Interface is not your concern here

Nothing's signature Glyph Interface — the array of LED light strips — is on the back of the phone, not the screen. Screen protectors have zero effect on it. If keeping the Glyph visible matters to you, that's a question of choosing a clear case, not a screen protector. The two accessories are entirely independent.

Match the model — Nothing's range is easy to confuse

Nothing's naming (Phone (1), (2), (2a), (2a) Plus, (3)) plus the CMF sub-brand makes it easy to buy the wrong protector. The Phone (2) and Phone (2a) are different sizes and not cross-compatible. The (2a) and (2a) Plus are the same screen size but have slightly different camera cutouts. Always confirm the listing matches your exact model.

Under-display fingerprint sensor

Nothing Phone (2), (2a), (2a) Plus, and (3) all use optical under-display fingerprint sensors. Quality tempered glass under 0.33mm works reliably; cheap thick glass can cause read failures. All our recommendations are verified compatible. The original Phone (1) also uses an under-display sensor with the same considerations.

FAQ · Nothing Phone questions

Frequently asked questions

What's the best screen protector for the Nothing Phone (3)?

For the Nothing Phone (3), Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit is our top pick — 9H tempered glass with an alignment frame for foolproof installation, case-friendly recessed edges, and verified compatibility with the under-display fingerprint sensor. The flat display makes protector choice straightforward; any quality tempered glass works well, but Spigen's alignment frame and oleophobic coating put it ahead.

Will a screen protector hide the Glyph Interface?

No — the Glyph Interface is the array of LED lights on the back of Nothing phones, not the screen. Screen protectors only cover the front display and have zero effect on the Glyph lighting. If keeping the Glyph visible matters to you, that's about choosing a transparent case, not a screen protector.

Are Nothing Phone screen protectors easy to find in the UK?

Yes. Nothing is a London-based brand with strong UK distribution, and screen protector inventory for Phone (3), (2a), and (2) is healthy on Amazon UK. Spigen, Whitestone, and several specialist brands maintain dedicated SKUs. Older models like Phone (1) have thinner but still adequate availability, and the CMF sub-brand is covered by amFilm and Supershieldz.

Does the under-display fingerprint sensor work with a protector?

Yes — quality tempered glass under 0.33mm works reliably with the optical under-display fingerprint sensors on Nothing Phone (1), (2), (2a), (2a) Plus, and (3). Avoid cheap thick glass which can cause read failures. All our recommendations are verified compatible with Nothing's fingerprint sensors.

What about the CMF Phone by Nothing?

The CMF Phone 1 and CMF Phone 2 Pro are Nothing's budget sub-brand. Screen protector inventory is thinner than the main Nothing line, but amFilm and Supershieldz both produce CMF Phone SKUs. At the CMF price point, a budget multi-pack from amFilm or Supershieldz is the sensible choice — there's no need to spend more on a budget phone.

Can I use a case with a screen protector on my Nothing Phone?

Yes — choose a case-friendly (recessed-edge) protector and it fits cleanly under Nothing's official cases and most third-party clear cases. Since many Nothing owners use transparent cases to show off the design, the recessed-edge protectors matter: full-coverage edge-to-edge glass can lift at the corners when a case lip presses against it.

How long will a protector last on my Nothing Phone?

Quality tempered glass lasts 12-18 months in daily use. The oleophobic fingerprint-resistant coating wears off first, usually around month 8-12. A cracked protector should be replaced immediately. Budget glass on a CMF Phone may yellow sooner — 6-9 months — but at the budget price the multi-pack covers replacements.
