I won’t expound much more about Nothing’s latest because I spent nearly 2,000 words reviewing them—you can read my review here. The Phone (3a) is available starting today and it ships on March 11, but you’ll have to wait a little longer for the (3a) Pro as it goes on sale March 11 and ships on March 25. US buyers will need to sign up for Nothing’s beta program to purchase the phones. They work on T-Mobile, but on AT&T and Verizon, you’ll only get 4G—you’ll need to contact your carrier to whitelist the devices for 5G access. —Julian Chokkattu

Honor already updated its flagship phone line this year, but it did have a new watch and earbuds to unveil at MWC. The regular rectangular Honor Watch 5 has been out for a while and resembles a knock-off Apple Watch, but the new Honor Watch 5 Ultra, which I’ve been wearing for the last week, has a round face. It’s lightweight, with a classy octagonal titanium case and a sapphire crystal face. It runs Honor’s OS, so functionality is limited, and you can’t add Wear OS apps, but the pay-off is strong battery life (Honor says up to 15 days, and I’m on course for around 12). The companion Honor Health Android app tracks your activity, workouts, and sleep, and you can change faces and set up notifications from your phone. It also has a diving depth capability of up to 30 meters. It costs €279.
