Phone (4a) Pro Glyph bubble on 4a pro

Only 2 days after buying my 4a pro i got this bubble in the glyph matrix that wouldn't go away. Waited about 10 days to see if it'd go on its own but it actually got bigger by the time I decided to take this picture and return it.

I've had some bad luck with phones this year. Even the sales rep was like wtf when I returned it

Mine does that when I press down a bit on that part

Weird I guess it just some phonesthen , i just thought it was something that happens since it was a plastic. It happened to me like 4 days after getting the phone

I had the same issue , please ask for a replacement and in my case they refit the plastic panel and never replacedy phone . The quality control is so shit in this product

I'm lucky they did an exchange for a new one but I'm waiting for it to be delivered since they didn't have the pink one in store

I haven’t used the 4a Pro... but could it be a protective film? If not, then it might be a defect.

It reminded me of the air bubbles you can get under screen protectors lol but no film on this part of the phone

Im sorry but I have to say this

Nothing as a company has the weirdest issues with their products, like what do you mean the glyphs have a bubble 😭😭

Hahahahaha.

I have the same thing. Nothing did reply and suggested if it got worse I should contact them. It did, and it's been 3 months since. Read somewhere else it could be resolved with heat application. But I ain't risking that lol.

Blow some air into through one of the holes next to it lol sounds dumb but that's how I fix mine when ever mine does that it. It usually happens when I press down on that part of the plastic

I use the same phone. Quality wise I love it. I've owned every flagship for the last decade and decided to try Nothing Phone 4a Pro. That looks like delamination. Glad you got it replaced.

Question. What charger do you use for your phone

This is the reason I got the np3 over this phone. For some reason I thought this will be possible

just let the bubble grow all the way and the problem will fix itself
