Buying advice for Algeria
Both Nothing Phone (3a) Pro and Nothing Phone (4a) are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.
Both phones sit in the same price band, so the choice comes down to specs and brand preference.
Nothing Phone (3a) Pro posts a stronger benchmark score, useful for heavier games and multitasking on Algerian carriers' busier 4G networks.
Above 100,000 DZD you are paying for the chipset, camera tuning, and long-term software support, so weigh those against price.
