Nothing is stepping into flagship territory with the upcoming Nothing Phone (3) and CEO Carl Pei has now revealed some interesting cues about the upcoming phones including its price.

In the video, Pei revealed the expected price to be around £800, which comes to roughly $1,063 or ₹90,500. That’s a big jump from the Phone (2), which launched at ₹44,999 in India.

This time, Nothing is aiming straight for the premium segment. Carl teased “premium materials,” which could mean a titanium frame or high-end glass alongside “major performance upgrades.”

Rumours suggest it could run on either the Snapdragon 8 Elite or a top-tier MediaTek Dimensity chip like the Dimensity 9400 or 9400+.

The biggest change is the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, replacing the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. The inner display has increased from 6.9 inches to 7 inches and you now get tougher Gorilla Glass Ceramic protection.

The camera setup also sees a change with a 50MP wide-angle lens instead of a telephoto one and a new 50MP front camera. However, there seems to be a discrepancy in the battery, the Razr 60 Ultra is said to have a 4,700mAh battery, which is actually higher than the 4,000mAh capacity listed for the Razr 50 Ultra.

GTA 6 Trailer 2 Hidden Details You Might Have Missed, Availability On PC Speculations

0

Highlights

  • GTA 6 Trailer 2 reveals stunning details including realistic muscle movement, dynamic environments and Easter eggs hinting at cinematic action sequences.
  • Liberty City references spark speculation as a truck with a Liberty City plate and Lucia’s backstory suggest the possibility of visiting the iconic location in-game.
  • PC release is likely delayed to 2027 or later, following Rockstar’s history of optimising its games for PC.

Rockstar Games has dropped the second trailer for GTA 6, and fans are buzzing. After nearly two years of silence, the trailer arrived just as Rockstar confirmed the game will launch on May 26, 2026. Yes, that’s a delay but the trailer more than made up for it with some seriously next-level visuals and details.

At almost three minutes long, the trailer is filled with blink-and-you-will-miss-it moments. Here are some standout details you might have missed –

  • The trailer opens with Jason saying, “Oh, just fixing some leaks.” It’s a clever Easter egg from Rockstar, poking fun at the real-life leaks that happened before the game was even announced.
  • Jason’s shirtless scenes reveal something new for GTA, realistic muscle movement. You can actually see muscles like his lats and pecs flex as he climbs a ladder or lifts weights at the beach. It’s a small touch, but it makes the characters feel more alive.
  • In one scene, Jason carries a crate of beer, and you can see the liquid inside the bottles sloshing around. In another, a still bottle shows tiny carbonation bubbles rising inside. It’s small stuff, but super detailed.
  • The trailer teases some massive heists. One standout moment shows a large safe hanging from a moving vehicle, which feels like a shoutout to Fast & Furious 5. It’s a big hint that GTA 6 might go all-in on cinematic action sequences.
  • Lucia is seen casually relaxing, and when she rests her knee on a couch, the cushion visibly sinks under her weight. This kind of interaction suggests that interiors in the game may be more dynamic and immersive than ever.
  • Eagle-eyed viewers noticed a truck with a Liberty City license plate during a chase scene. The cityscape in the background looks a lot like NYC too. Add to that the fact that Lucia’s backstory ties to Liberty City, and it could mean we’ll get to visit the iconic location again, even if just briefly.
  • In one scene, Jason and Lucia are seen near a glass case with a snake inside. It could just be a mission cutscene, but it’s got fans wondering if pets are finally coming to GTA, and not just dogs but snakes too. It’d be a first for the franchise.
  • It seems there are many sports minigames available across Vice City. The new selection of screenshots reveals Mini Golf, Pool, Fishing, Basket Ball, Kayaking, Dirt Bike Racing and Scuba Diving.

Speculations About the PC Release

While trailer 2 answered a lot of questions, one big one question still remains. When will GTA 6 release on PC?

When the first trailer dropped in December 2023, many assumed the PC version would come out about a year after the console release. But now that the console launch is confirmed for 2026, the PC version is definitely pushed back, likely into 2027 or later.

To get a rough idea, let’s look at Rockstar’s history –

  • GTA 4 launched on PS3/Xbox 360 in April 2008 and hit PC just 8 months later.
  • GTA 5, however, came to PC almost two years after its 2013 console debut.

The reason is mostly optimisation. Unlike consoles, which have fixed hardware, PCs come in all shapes and specs. That makes development more complex and time-consuming. Rockstar learned this the hard way with GTA 4, where the PC port was a technical mess, plagued by bugs and poor performance.

They didn’t repeat that mistake with GTA 5, which is still considered one of the most optimised PC games ever thanks in part to that long delay.

So, what does this mean for GTA 6 on PC? Realistically, don’t expect it before 2027. It could even be 2028, depending on how long Rockstar takes to polish it.

FAQS

Q1. What hidden details are in GTA 6 Trailer 2?

Answer. The trailer includes realistic muscle movement, dynamic environments, and small visual touches like carbonation bubbles in bottles, making the world feel more immersive.

Q2. Are there hints that Liberty City might be featured in GTA 6?

Answer. Yes, a truck with a Liberty City license plate appears in a chase scene, and Lucia’s backstory is linked to Liberty City, suggesting players might revisit the iconic location.

Q3. When will GTA 6 be released on PC?

Answer. The console launch is set for May 26, 2026, but based on Rockstar’s history, the PC version is likely delayed until 2027 or later to allow for optimisation.

In terms of pricing, it slots between the Galaxy S25+ and the S25 Ultra. Here’s all we know about the phone.

Samsung is running some attractive pre-order deals as usual. Here’s what you get if you pre-order the Galaxy S25 Edge

  • $50 credit at checkout when using 9to5Google links.
  • Free storage upgrade – You can get the 256GB model for the price of the 128GB variant. So, unless you’re really tight on budget, the 128GB model doesn’t make sense.
  • Trade-in bonuses – You can get up to $630 off by trading in an eligible device.

Here’s how much Samsung is offering for specific trade-ins –

  • Galaxy S24 Ultra – $630
  • Galaxy Z Fold 6 – $630
  • Galaxy S23 Ultra – $580
  • Galaxy Z Fold 5 – $580
  • Galaxy S22 Ultra – $500

  • Galaxy S24 – $420

If you don’t plan to trade in anything, you’ll still get 256GB storage at no extra cost and $50 in credit for accessories. But with trade-in, you could save as much as $800 on the 256GB variant (originally priced at $1,219), a great deal if you have the right phone to exchange.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge – Key Features

The Galaxy S25 Edge is different from the older Samsung “Edge” models. As rumours before the launch have already revealed, it is a fresh take on slim smartphone design. It’s part of the flagship S25 series, but in an incredibly thin body that measures just 5.8mm. That’s about 30% thinner than the Galaxy S25 Ultra, making it the slimmest Galaxy S phone ever.

Now, the battery is smaller than usual because of the thin design. You get just 3,900mAh, which is even less than the base Galaxy S25, which has a smaller screen. Charging is limited to 25W wired, which is slower than the 45W you get with the S25+ and Ultra.

There’s also wireless charging, and Samsung says you can get up to 55% charge in around 30 minutes with a compatible adapter (not included in the box).

Other than that, you get a 6.7-inch QHD+ AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. Powering the device is the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip (full 8-core version), along with 12GB of RAM and your choice of 256GB or 512GB storage.

In the camera department, there are three sensors in total i.e. a massive 200MP main sensor (same as the S25 Ultra), a 12MP ultra-wide lens and a 12MP front camera for selfies. However, it skips a telephoto lens.

The frame is made from titanium, the back uses Gorilla Glass Victus 2, and the front is protected by Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2. The phone also comes with IP68 water and dust resistance.

One standout detail is that it weighs just 163 grams, making it 25% lighter than the Galaxy S25 Ultra and only slightly heavier than the base Galaxy S25.

The software the phone comes with is Android 15 with One UI 7. You also get all the latest Galaxy AI features like Drawing Assist and Audio Eraser along with the usual AI tricks from Google.
