Why i'm returning my Nothing Phone 3a - very disappointing

He returns the £320 Nothing Phone 3a after its non-Samsung camera API blocks wide-angle and 2x lenses in streaming apps. He replaces his shattered six-year-old S10+ with a £130 refurbished S10+, valuing its cameras, beauty filter, and third-party lens access. He says the Nothing works well otherwise, but Android fragmentation leaves Samsung as his only practical streaming-phone choice.

His purchase reverses toward older proven hardware when creator-specific compatibility outweighs newer specifications.
