Second update: After finally being able to connect with the seller, they were the definition of excellent with their customer service. I reached out to them during the holiday rush and had a replacement unit that seems to be completely new sent to me. The bus are add amazing as the first pair were. This time I will be more mindful of where I keep my favorite earbuds, and fart far away from the washing machine. Thank you Essential Tech and Nothing. In the past two years, I have used or owned just about every single pair of earbuds under $500. I use the nothing year 2024 version every day and sometimes I don’t even think to grab the other ones. Everything comes with some form of trade-off any with the nothing I would say these these are battery life and sound. Both of these trade offs are minimal. The battery life is fine and because of wireless charging they get back to useable levels quickly. In terms of sound I personally rank the Sennheiser Momentum 4 as the buds that have sounded the best to me, an arbitrary “10”. If the M4 are a 10 I’d say the nothing are an 8, unless you just love bass, if you do, these are a 9.5. Pros: Comfort- as comfortable as a stem style earbud I’ve ever used. I wear these in any sweaty environment and they DO NOT Fall out..looking at you Apple and Samsung Pro 3 Connectivity- again another place where these are as good as any bud with multiple devices except the Technics AZ80, which can pair to 3 devices (something I never used once) Controls- this is where I believe the buds start to stand out. You have many options to choose from how you want these to work, almost anyone can find a setup that works. The one thing they don't do is slide for volume control. Call/mic quality- from everyone I’ve talked there is a Night and Day difference in me talking with these buds and anything else, yes even Apple AirPod pros. Apparently they block out most of the background noise as well. This might be the biggest selling point for the buds. It’s Exceptional Durability- I mentioned before that these stay in no matter what sweaty activity I’m doing they also push through no matter what activity I’m doing whether it’s sweat rain splashes of water, falling in water the case has held up to exposure to water everything it’s one of the stronger qualities of the buds, and the case, is the durability. IP54 does don't protect against a washing machine or total submersion. Transparency mode- Again, transparency mode is one of those things that it just does really well very similar to the call quality it’s top of the line in terms of the way the transparency mode operates and functions. It’s one of the best that there are right now. App functionality- I mentioned that the controls are amazing and they are just a part of an amazing app for these buds. You can find any sound profile that you love and as I mentioned in the sound earlier if you love bass bass is a thing that you must have with earbuds. These are the best style earbuds. I’ve ever used it. It’s it’s a level that is disruptive. That’s how there’s controls you can’t even fathom EQ settings. As far as you can imagine it’s really top-notch. I would say that the app is a 10 out of 10 for all of the functionality that you can use for these buds and if you just want to use default stuff it works really well there too the app is another amazing point. Trade offs: Noise cancellation- if the Bose quiet comfort and the Sennheiser and the Sony are tens, then the nothings are probably eight or 8 1/2 the Bose could be by themselves, but the little hissing white noise that’s with them when you not running music bothers me to no end so I can’t rank them a 10. I think these are just a few marks below any of the premium top 2 to 3 times the price of these earbuds noise cancellation performance more than doable. Sound- Well, I said the app gives you great flexibility for sound and even sound quality they don’t stack up to the higher budget earbuds in this regard they notice don’t sound as good or is clear or as crisp as the Sennheiser momentum force not many earbuds. Do they are clearly not there once again. I probably put these in about an eight or 8 1/2 if the Sennheiser are number one. But the sound is good enough for me to pick these up every single time I’m leaving the house and just taking earbuds just in case or when I’m going to the guy I know that these will always be good enough customization next level that you can get really close, especially if you have a phone that supports higher and codec, you’ll notice that increase just a little bit and that makes that little bump each way up ahead of other earbuds like Bose, Samsung, and AirPods and all the other ones in that price range they sound better than jabra which are almost $300. Battery- battery is the spot that the nothings have made the biggest improvement on because previously their batteries were not very good at all and now they’re passable. They’re quite decent and get about six hours out of them using Hi-Rez Kodex and ANC about six hours maybe 5 1/2 just kind of depending on circumstances and everything else but about 5 1/2 six hours that’s about what you get out of most of them the Sony or a 10 in this area these would be, I don’t know previously they were five or four so nice improvement in terms of the battery like I said it being rechargeable via wireless charging is really helpful. It just makes it quick and easy. Throw it on the back of your phone if it supports it in 10 minutes 20 minutes you got enough charge to get going and do whatever you need so it’s not terrible like it was it makes it very doable and passable now. TL;DR These earbuds are a significant improvement over the previous generation for anything in their price range. They are right up there at the top as far as the best or close to the best in this price range I luckily got mine on sale on Amazon. I think they were 115 120 for the amount of money there’s nothing that touches these. I have the momentum 4s, I have the technic AZ80s, I’ve had several AirPod pros, I have the Samsung buds Pro three and the budsPro 2, list the earbuds under $400. I’ve had them or still own them and these earbuds check enough of the boxes that matter to me that I use these consistently more than the other ones , probably one of the biggest good sound good ANC great quality, multipoint connection and durability. These aspects make them, the go anywhere earbud, they consistently deliver what I want from them. I love this purchase and will absolutely recommend these buds to anyone who seeks these qualities from their buds, especially in the stem style.

Great earbuds especially for the price. I think these earbuds perform exceptionally well for their price point. The sound quality is great with plenty of bass. The Adaptive noise canceling is not perfect but it does make a huge difference. The battery lasts a long time. I've had them for 2 weeks now and I've only charge the case once. I normally have a problem with earbuds that just stick in your ear. They usually don't fit well and fall out but these stay in perfectly even when I'm working out. They're very comfortable. Very light. It's nice that the earbud and case have colored dots to remind you which earbud goes on which side when you go to charge it. The nothing app is also really easy to use and setting up my personal sound profile seemed to make a difference in the quality of the sound.

I picked up these earbuds mainly for listening to EDM (house, techno, D&B, etc) and taking calls, and they’ve quickly become my go-to daily drivers & travel earbuds. The overall sound signature hits hard where it matters. The profile gives punchy bass and crisp highs that are pretty much required to make electronic tracks feel alive. It's an excellent luxury while I'm at the office, out running errands, or on a plane, but the sound is also good enough to opt for when I'm at home and could alternatively use a proper speaker. The soundstage feels open and detailed, which is exactly what I want for bass-heavy playlists and beat-driven music, so unless I need to feel the bass in my chest, this'll provide everything I need. Comfort is excellent. They’re light in the ears even during long listening sessions, so I can wear them for hours without fatigue. Bluetooth pairing was simple and stable, and battery life gets me through long flights with plenty of juice left, plus the case provides multiple full recharges on the go. Easy touch/pinch controls and the Nothing app allows for customized EQ and adjustable ANC, which helps a lot at the grocery store, office, and airport. Call quality has been solid too, something I always struggle to find in earbuds, but far more necessary here than on over-ear headphones. My voice come through clear in quiet & decently noisy places, which is awesome when I’m out and about taking a work call mid-day. Battery life holds up well for daily use, and the transparent case looks cool/stylish while keeping the buds charged for multiple days. The visual factor definitely sets em apart from a lot of the other earbuds you could get for an Android phone. Only thing I wish is that they had strong waterproofing. A little splash resistance would make them perfect for workouts or rainy walks. But these aren't meant to be workout earbuds, they're far more suited to the subway and streets. Otherwise, these are some of the best everyday earbuds I’ve used; great balance of sound, comfort, and features for the price.

Since I moved from the warmth of Florida up to Delaware, my daily routine has shifted a bit, but the amount of time I spend traveling for business hasn't slowed down. I’m constantly on the move, and I needed a pair of earbuds that could handle a long flight or a noisy train ride without feeling bulky. I picked up the Nothing Ear (the 2024 flagship model) because I was curious about the "Bass Enhance" and the Hi-Res audio support. I wanted something that looked a bit different but still had the tech to keep up with my calls and my music library. The Breakdown The first thing that stands out is definitely the design. The transparent look is pretty slick and definitely catches the eye, but the real win is the comfort. These are very light. I’ve worn them for three-hour stretches while catching up on work, and I didn't get that "clogged ear" feeling or any soreness. When it comes to the sound, they lean toward a very crisp and detailed signature. If you’re an Android user and can take advantage of the LDAC codec, the clarity is quite good for this price range. The bass is punchy, especially if you use the "Bass Enhance" feature in the app, but it doesn't drown out the vocals like some other brands tend to do. It’s a more refined kind of low-end—not just a muddy rumble, but a clean thump. The "Smart ANC" is also pretty helpful. It’s supposed to adjust the noise cancellation based on how the buds are sitting in your ear. In practice, it does a decent job of dialing back the hum of an airplane engine or the chatter in a coffee shop. It’s not going to completely silence the world, but it definitely makes a dent in the background noise. The Reality Check However, there are a few things to keep in mind. While the sound is great, the battery life is just "okay." If you have the noise cancellation turned on and you're using high-quality codecs, you're realistically looking at about 5 hours of playback. That's usually enough for a flight from the East Coast, but you'll definitely be putting them back in the case for a recharge more often than some competitors. Also, the transparency mode—the setting that lets you hear your surroundings—is functional but feels a bit artificial. It doesn't sound as natural as being "open-eared," and I’ve noticed a bit of a hiss when no music is playing. Lastly, that cool transparent case looks great, but it’s a total magnet for scratches. After just a few weeks of being tossed in my pocket or laptop bag, it's already showing some wear and tear. Value for Money For what you’re paying, I think the value is solid. You’re getting a lot of high-end features like wireless charging, multipoint pairing (connecting to my phone and laptop at the same time is a lifesaver), and a really deep EQ app. It feels like a premium package without the five-hundred-dollar price tag. Final Thoughts Overall, these met my expectations for a daily driver. They aren't the absolute kings of noise cancellation, but for a business traveler who appreciates good audio and a lightweight fit, they’re a great choice. They’re practical, they look cool, and the call quality is clear enough that I don't have people asking me to repeat myself on Zoom calls.

WORST BRAND & EXPERIENCE EVER!! I CAUTION ANY POTENTIAL BUYER AVOID THEY ARE A NIGHTMARE. I hardly every write reviews especially this long but felt it was necessary. Here is my story which to this day remain unresolved. Less than 10 months from time of purchase my case stopped holding a charge, and unable to charge or connect to the ear buds. I reach out 3/30 since they are under warranty to get them repaired. First red flag, Nothing Tech kept going back and forth with unnecessary "troubleshooting" steps to where it felt they were blaming me. I provided a response of the steps in detail they asked which only progressed when I notified them I was an Electronics Engineer (This is True) and was not looking to fix them myself to prevent voiding the warranty. I finally received a RMA number 4/5, after that struggle, along with delay in getting a shipping address 4/11 to send the faulty product back for repair. I shipped them later that day on 4/11 and received confirmation they received them a few days later. They claimed repair process typically takes 3–5 business days once the device arrives, excluding shipping time and subject to parts availability.. So a wait patiently as a week goes bye, so almost ~13 days later I follow up with requesting an update 4/27. Now this where the uncooperative experience and lack of accountability is highlighted with there "customer support". They responded the device was delivered on 4/20 and they provided a track number. So I go look up the FedEx details and in my mail box NO package still. FedEx provides proof the package was signed by unknown person not in my household, listing ONLY the city in the tracker but the actual address was blank. I reach back out to Nothing and they provided feedback the package was delivered and recommend to ask my neighbor which I they did NOT have my package. Also requested them to confirmed the account return address was correct and associated with me 4/27, which it was. I went back to my security cameras to look at the time and date they claimed the package was delivered which I have clear view of my street and nearby neighbos along with front door camer, NO package. I filled a claim through FedEx as they also recommended asking. I later 4/30 spoke with a FedEx representative on the phone. FedEx confirmed the address on the tracking number which Nothing provided was not mine but was delivered to the same city which I lived, this explained the signed package from unknown person.. I once again reach out to Nothing 4/30 letting them know FedEx claim was denied because it was delivered to correct address associated with tracking number, once again NOT mine. Since it was not stolen or lost I could not file a report of any kind with either FedEx or the police. The FedEx representative ask I confirm this was the correct tracking number and possibly two different shipping information were put on the package. I contact Nothing asking for the actual address associated with the tracking number along with RMA number they provide was accurate 5/1. Nothing responded back with claim of delivery but FedEx shipped to wrong address and ONLY supplying my city as proof Nothing sent package to correct address 5/2 to file a complaint directly with Fedex. Now I'm responding back with receipts of proof FedEx did there part along with a screenshot of this NEGATIVE 1000 review with no resolution in sight and my hard earned money waisted on their product and services. I once again WARN or better yet to NOT purchase anything from them to have to go through the same experience, there are much better brands out there who standby the quality of their products and value their customers.

I'm actually not sure that my units are fully functional. I've never used noise cancelling earphones before, so I didn't know what to expect. I was unimpressed. I use transparency more the most, for wearing at work. If they're next me it doesn't do much, but if someone's having a conversation across the room, I can sometimes hear them pretty well. Noise cancellation seems no better than passive noise isolation of buds I typically use, and is definitely less effective than Comply foam tips I often upgrade to. For comparison, my teen daughter has Samsung Galaxy Buds 2. She thought they were broken, so I cleaned them and put new tips on, then tested them out. The transparency mode was a little digitized, but was really clear. Noise cancellation was also very effective, although when it first started there was a strange sucking sensation on my ear drums. It made me realize just how bad this feature was on my Nothings. I was really disappointed. I wanted to support a company that wasn't one of the largest in the world. I should've just bought some Galaxy buds. Pros: - sound quality is pretty good, especially if you do the hearing test for the "Personal Sound Profile". Bassy and full. - battery life is reasonable - about 5 hours with transparency mode (essential for wearing at work) - comfort is pretty good using the included silicon ear tips. I wear them for 4 to 5 hours without any issues - looks pretty good with the transparent smoked casing - touch controls are tactile, intuitive and customizable - wireless charging is nice, so long as you've got a charging pad. The case is magnetized, but doesn't really work very effectively with magsafe chargers - case is a nice size and shape. It fits in the pocket fairly comfortably. The buds snap nicely in place for charging - software is easy to use Cons: - not sure the noise cancellation/transparency actually works. Could just be a defective set. Maybe I should have opened a ticket, but until recently I just didn't know better. Regardless, they're either unreliable, or this feature just isn't very good. Since I bought them with this feature in mind that knocks a significant number of stars off my review, for what is otherwise a decent product.

So I had ordered these and then my wife asked me to get her the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra Open Ear Buds, so while we were there I grabbed the in ear Bose Quiet Comfort Ear Buds. Then these Nothing Ear buds arrived and I was able to compare them to the known brand of Bose. Get the Nothing Ear buds! The bass and clarity of the Nothing Ear buds is amazing! They blow Bose away. I'm a music person. I've had my hands in mixing and AV since I was a kid. I know exactly how music should sound. These Nothing Ear buds are where it's at. There's an app for them for IOS and Android. They perform a hearing test to see how you hear different tones and apply that to your EQ, while still allowing you to adjust the EQ in a simple and advanced setting. The sound is crystal clear with no distortion at all levels. This is exactly what I had expected from Bose at $299, but I was disappointed, until my Nothing Ear buds arrived. At this price point you'll be surprised and satisfied with your purchase. They are easy to connect to whatever device you're using. The battery life is great. They are very light, especially compared to the Bose ear buds and even the Apple AirPods Pro. The case is a little cheap feeling compared to many other charging cases I've had. But if you take care of your stuff, you shouldn't have a problem with the case. They stay in my ears very well while walking around and moving. The noise canceling feature is top notch as well. I could barely hear the commotion in the house with pets, wife and 3 daughters. With music playing I couldn't hear anything outside of the ear buds. I even wore tested them at my girls cheer competition, which is comparable to being at a club or concert and heard nothing outside of the ear buds. The package comes with a charging cable USB-C, the charging case, and right and left ear buds which are small compared to many known brands. If you're looking for new ear buds, stop here. These Nothing Ear buds are where it's at.

TLDR: Good headphones, too expensive, charging case ruined by washer on first wash. Good headphones, a bit expensive (my opinion), active noise canceling is good but buggy at times, app features are neat and useful, cool programming tricks in the headphones themselves, "find my headphones" feature works better than Samsung (based on discussion with coworker). Range is less than expected, battery life is worse than expected. These were my first new headphones in 3 years, replacing some JBL Go Air earbuds, so that's the baseline for my review. I bought these headphones "Used-Like New" for $79, the package was still sealed and had never been opened, and I used some amazon points to lower my cost to around $59. After reading a ton of reviews for various buds, I thought these looked cool, the performance looked really nice, and the price was more reasonable to me. All of these things are great. I saw another reviewer mention that their headphones were randomly pausing while chewing, I'd guess they didn't have their headphones properly fitted for their ears; here is why: The app for these headphones has a "fit" test built in, during this test it plays audio and uses the external microphones to "listen" to see how much sound is leaking out. Given this test it can suggest you change the tip size. Anyway, these headphones have a feature where if you pull one of the two headphones from your ear, it detects that, and it automatically pauses whatever you are listening to (the headphones are basically assuming you pulled one headphone out to listen to and talk with someone, so it pauses for your conversation. Some pretty cool programming, but it can be weird, sometimes I'll pull one headphone out while at work just to keep a more active ear and it pauses, but I understand why so it doesn't bother me too much. As for the reasons I'm giving these headphones 3 out of 5, the active noise cancelling is really cool, this is my first time ever having this feature, but sometimes it gets funky and pushes external sounds through and amplifies them louder than what they would normally be (like my lawn mower when I turn my head) I wish this performed a little better. The buds also die pretty quickly, I think they have like a 3-4 hour charge when using the noise cancelling, not sure how the life changes when you turn that off, but this means I now make sure to put them in the case to charge at work when I'm at lunch or taking a break from using them, if I don't keep them charged they will die during work. The last complaint I have about these headphones is the range. I'm not sure if it is my pair in particular, if it is caused by using the "connect to two devices" feature, or if all these headphones work this way, but the range is pretty poor. If I walk to the restroom about 50' away they start losing signal and getting buggy. With the JBL headphones I could walk over a hundred feat away from my phone or computer and they didn't miss a beat. The range and battery issues may be a result of the small size of these buds, comparatively they are much smaller than my last pair, and I suppose that is worth the trade off. I just wasn't expecting downgrades in a few areas when these headphones are 3 years newer and 4x the retail price.

Heard about this brand a few months ago (their phones), but didn't pay too much attention. But encountered them again during my searching for some burdening combo replacement (Bose QC II + AirPods). My AirPods are almost 3 yrs old (battery is almost dead), but newer Bose can't be used instead of them (bad mic, unstable connection etc). Eventually, read a lot about some alternative and decided to give a try with the Nothing Ear 2024 (their price was really unbeatable). All in all, I'm still fascinated about my experience with their usage! Custom sound profile (wow! the only comparable sound was with my PSB M4, but it's a different niche), perfect mic even in a very tricky and noisy conditions, decent ANC (even compared to Bose's), and slightly unusual but convenient gesture control. Time will tell regarding their reliability, but overall impression about this model - very well engineered and designed headset! PS Still trying to understand how these guys achieved IP55 for the case 😀

Amazing sound, app, experience! I almost want to move from iOS to Android to enjoy ChatGPT features! Only missing the sound control vs my AirPod Pro!

Słuchawki są bardzo dobrej jakości. Wyglądają super. Dźwięk jest bardzo dobry. Polecam!

Utilisant les Nothing Ear (2) au quotidien, je peux affirmer qu’ils offrent un rapport qualité/prix presque imbattable. Sur le plan sonore, le rendu est équilibré avec des basses bien présentes mais pas étouffantes, des médiums précis et des aigus clairs, ce qui rend l’écoute agréable aussi bien pour la musique que pour les podcasts. La réduction active de bruit (ANC) est très efficace pour cette gamme de prix : elle atténue significativement les sons ambiants, que ce soit dans les transports en commun ou en ville, sans trop dénaturer le son.Le design transparent est vraiment original et attire régulièrement la curiosité autour de moi. Le boîtier est compact, facilement transportable, et dégage une impression de solidité. Côté confort, ils tiennent bien en place même pendant les séances de sport, sans provoquer de gêne après plusieurs heures d’utilisation.Les commandes tactiles sont intuitives et personnalisables via l’application Nothing X, qui propose aussi l’ajustement de l’égaliseur. L’autonomie est correcte : environ 5 à 6 heures par charge, plus plusieurs charges supplémentaires grâce au boîtier, ce qui est parfait pour une utilisation quotidienne.À ce prix, je n’ai pas trouvé mieux en termes de performances globales. Je suis impatient de voir ce que vont proposer les Nothing Ear (3), en espérant que Nothing continue sur cette lancée d’innovation et de rapport qualité/prix exceptionnel !
