The 7s gen 3 series and the Dimensity 7200 chipset have similar specs, but the 3a series is a big upgrade. It boosts the UFS storage from 2.0 to 3.0, making your phone faster and more fun to use. It’s like getting a super-fast speed boost for your mobile device, and the image processing is also better. Snapdragon image processing is way faster than Dimensity.

Nothing phone 3a with 7s gen 3 is too small of a chip upgrade to the Nothing phone 2a with Dimensity 7200 pro. There is not much difference.
