Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds, 45dB Hybrid Noise Cancelling Earbuds, Hi-Res Audio, Advanced Equaliser, Dual Connect, 6 Mics, 42.5H Playtime Ear Buds Wireless Bluetooth, Black

I’ve been using these several months now, and honestly they have exceeded my expectations. The audio quality is excellent, with very clear vocals, balanced sound, and especially powerful bass that makes music sound immersive and enjoyable. Whether listening to music, watching videos, or gaming, they consistently perform amazingly well. Another thing I really like is how comfortable and reliable they are for daily use. The battery life is great, the connection stays stable, and the noise cancellation works surprisingly well. After months of use, they still feel premium and perform just as well as when I first got them. Definitely one of the best earbuds in their price range.

It's extremely rare that I give out a 5 star review for a tech product of any kind, but I honestly, trying to nitpick these would be reaching. Like. My only gripe is I wish the little charging case had a small hole on it to loop a Keychain through for easier carrying. Beyond that, these are the best earbuds I've personally owned. Let me put it in perspective with a breakdown of the issues I've had with ear buds over the years: I have sensory issues and am extremely sensitive to pressure on my ears/head. I can't wear over ear headphones without getting headaches. Ear buds I can tolerate much better but I have spent over a decade trying to find an ear bud that didn't just start slipping out of my ear or that wouldn't make my ears sore over time. My ears canal isn't exceptionally tiny but my outer ear is quite small and most ear buds simply didn't work. They were the wrong shape or just too large to fit in the ear opening and stay put unless I crammed them into my ear canal. But that doesn't work long term. Inevitably, I had to push the earbud back into place. Back in the days of wired buds this was a tolerable inconvenience. I was fine with that. I rocked the first Gen Bluetooth Bose ear buds, the ones connected by a wire to each other, for a couple years and they were tolerable but still constantly popped out of my ears. When true wireless came out having to adjust and push ear buds back in my ears became an intolerable frustration. I was constantly tripping the touch controls no matter how careful I was, and when you have to push earbuds back into place ever 15 to 20 minutes and you're pausing your music or accidentally hanging up on a call, it makes the buds feel pointless to have. I've tried pixel buds, JBL, skull candy, beats, Sony, JLab, on and on and none of them ever fit right. They were all slipping out no matter what I did and they inevitable made my ears hurt within an hour of wear. These don't do that. I can run on the treadmill, clean my house, do yoga, dance around, act a fool and these buds stay in place comfortably for hours. If I do need to make a minor readjustment, the physical click button on the stem means I don't accidentally pause my music or audio book anymore, and when I need to, it's a reliable, easy single click on the stem to adjust the noise canceling or pause my audio. The fact that the button is a physical one and has a nice little click to it is so satisfying. I miss fiddly technology. Stuff with buttons and dials. In a world full of Everything is Touch Navigated Now, a single clickable button is such a nice return to form. The form factor of these buds is lightweight, comfortable, and for the first time ever I don't feel like I'm fighting my headphones. The next thing is sound quality. I am kind of picky about sound quality and clarity. These things sound amazing. The equalizer that you can use in the app makes tweaking them to exactly what I want so easy. On top of that, the ANC has its own adjustability to filter high, mid, or low frequency noise, as well as an adaptive setting to suit my needs for any environment. The transparency mode isn't full of that scratchy noise I have come to expect from earbuds. It's crisp and clear with a very subtly, soft white noise that is actually pretty great for when I just need to combat my tinnitus but stay aware of my kiddo running around. The app has a lot of great features, including a find my buds feature if you should lose track of one or both of them, and that's minor gripe number 2. It'd be great if there was a find my buds feature for the charging case itself in case I misplace the whole thing, but having some kind of device location at all is still nice and not a necessity, just a perk. These headphones charge quickly and I've honestly never been in a situation where the headphones have died on me when I've been using them. The battery life is solid I've used them with ANC on for 3 to 4 hours at a time. The app gives you a readout of the individual batter life of each headphone so you know at a glance when you're getting low, but I've yet to have them dip below 25% during heavy use. The case charges by usb c, which is nice. It charges pretty quickly, too. I liked these so much I bought a pair for my girlfriend who is equally sensitive and has had the same issues as I have with ear buds in the past. She lives in noise canceling buds to help her focus and avoid overstimulation and she too, agrees that these are so comfortable and fit so well that she forgets they're in sometimes. All in all, I've never had any issues with connectivity or sound quality, they sound great, fit great, have great features, and at under $100 they are a great deal. My Samsung buds cost twice that and I hated them. These are excellent. Absolutely recommend.

The Definition of a 4 star earbud Im going to compare to the cmf buds pro 2 and the nothing ear, so basically the next option up in price and down in price. The pros? They sound great- bass heavy, but way better than most other anc buds at this price point- and i think they have a stand out aeathetic. Recommend downloading a third party eq app, as the eq options on nothings app are practically non existent. Also they fit great and basically cant be shaken out. Beware if you have smaller ears though. The average? ANC is mediocre. It will help you focus on music, however you will still be able to hear just about everything if you focus on it. transparency mode is there, but i still have to turn music down or pause it to have a conversation with the nothing ear a in. battery life leaves something to be desired if you plan to use them for a long time consecutively but otherwise the case will provide many quick recharges. The bad? pinch controls are inconsistent and most of the time fail to do what you want, and the timing windows on multi press inputs are very specific. Youll newd to pinch them in a very specific way and in a very specific location for them to register at all. The case is some what hard to get open, theres really no lip or anything to get purchase of the top to pry it open easier. Compared to the cmf buds pro 2, the cmf buds sound a bit warmer, however the active noise canceling seems better, transparency mode is way more functional, and the case on those has a fun clicky scroll wheel that can be mapped to a function. compared to the nothing ears, those are going to sound a bit better with their ceramic drivers, have better microphone, have better ANC, have better equalizer settings, and a different style of case. Do i think you should get these? If you value audio quality, and don't find the mediocre feature set to off-putting, these are a very solid option at their price point, I got them for $60 on Cyber Monday. personally, I would rather avoid buying a couple Sandwich combos and spend a bit more on the nothing ear or the better tuned nothing ear 2 if you can find those.

Great Bluetooth earphones! If you are looking for comfortable fit, great sound quality, and good mic for calls this is the pair for you. I have had my eyes on these earphones for a while and bought them when they were one sale. Totally worth it! The quality of these are great. They sound great right out of the box, hardly had to mess with any of the EQ settings in the app. So it was surprising just how well everything sounded once I started using them. More Thoughts: I'm not a professional audio reviewer or hardcore audiophile, so this is just coming from an high quality audio enjoyer. I will also have some comparisons to the Jabra Elite 7 Pros that I've used. Sound Quality: I really love the sound of the Nothing Earphones, music sounds bass-y and punchy, if you listen to rock or music with a deeper or more intense sound, these handle that great. I listen to a lot of different genres and all of them sound really clear and balanced without touching the EQ settings. I haven't messed with them a lot myself but you have a couple presets and the ability to set your own. Personally I haven't felt the need to since the sound is so high quality and clear to start with. If you like to listen to your music loud they handle them easily without making your ears or head hurt. Definitely my favorite sounding pair of earphones I have experienced. Mic quality: I used a pair of Jabra Elite 7 Pros for over 2 years as my daily earphones for music and videos that were priced at $140 USD when I first purchased them that were great but after two years they needed an upgrade. A complaint I always had with the Jabras was the mic quality for calls, my voice was always too low or muffled, but with the Nothing earphones my voice is so much clearer and I have even had people comment how loud I sound using them! So they are great for calls. On the receiving end voice you are are really clear with hardly any background noise coming through. ANC (Active Noise Canceling): The ANC on the Nothing Earphones are fantastic. In the app there are a few different options: low, medium, high, and adaptive. The default is high, and it makes it feel like you are in your own world. Once you are playing music or a video almost all the outside noise disappears. I work in an office at a marine so sometimes voices or heavy machinery comes through but at such a low volume you hardly register it. Though I might have to give the edge to my Jabras with just how much more consistent the ANC is on them especially when you have a good fit. Great ANC but not best out there. Transparency: The transparency mode is not as good as the Jabra, I find that any music you may be playing can drown out any noise or voices you want to come through. It, in my opinion, doesn't let enough sounds through when you are at medium volume or louder especially if you find yourself talking a lot with them in. So if what you are playing isn't too loud its fine. Controls/Buttons: The buttons on the stems of the earphones function off of pinches, it is not your typical press or touch buttons. It takes a bit to get used to especially if you are used to a tactile press button like on Jabra products. But the accuracy of the pinches/controls is great. I haven't had it do something I didn't intended. Also the range of custom options for the buttons is great with you being able to change them to whatever scheme you want. The only thing you can't change is the Play/pause button. But I was happy to be able to change the buttons functions to what I needed them to be, which a bit more than I could say for the Jabras. Fit: The ear tips that the Nothing earphones come with are very comfortable and fit really nicely. I typically use the smallest tips that an earphone comes with, anything bigger usually falls out or pushes itself out of my ear, but the medium size that comes on them fit surprisingly great for me. I did switch to the smaller ones for comfort but I can't complain about the larger size. You get three sizes with these earphones: small, medium, and large. The material feels really nice in the ear as well. And the overall shape of the earphones feels great in the ear, just sits comfortable inside, sometimes I can forget they are even there, and the stems are no bother. Battery/Charging: The case and the earphones charge really fast and the indicator light on the case is nice way to tell the charge level. They come with a very short usb-c to usb-c cable that charges the case so quickly, especially with the right adapter. Charge much faster than the Jabra case and earphones. The battery life on the Nothing earphones is pretty great for 8 hour work days. And the case charge lasts me an entire week or more. If you are using the ANC or Transparency modes it does tank the life quite a bit, as with most earphones. The most I have had them last while using ANC on High nonstop is about 5 hours, which to me is pretty good. And once you put them in the case to charge you can definitely get an entire day out of them using ANC. Without ANC you can go through most of a day, maybe 10-12 hours or more of use. My jabras perform quite identically but the charge on them doesn't last as long after in the case for 10 minutes. Conclusion: There are probably things I've missed or things other people notice, but to the average person these earphones come at a great price and provide you with insanely great quality across the board. The mic alone makes this a worth while purchase. But the sound is smooth, crispy, and clear when you need it to be. My favorite set of earphones I've bought myself so far. They are definitely my go to daily drivers.

Absolutely gorgeous looking. Wonderful sound for the price. Decent ANC, great mids and punchy bass. Not so great for treble but you can’t get everything at this price range. Super small case, sleek design, very good control scheme, and absolutely amazing app. Honestly I can’t be bothered to write a review most of the time, but I love these and I wanted to share this with you. Still only a day old under my care but to me they’re worth every penny.

Pros: - The sound quality is really good to be honest. I can hear every instrument in song and it has really good bass especially considering it's price point. - It connects really fast to my iPhone and Macbook pro. - Loveee the design! That's what sold me on it in the beginning. Something about the design just makes it feel fresh compared to the other headphones out there on the market. - The fit is snug in my ear. Cons: - At first, it was hard to take the earbuds out of the case while in motion or on the go (like walking, carrying something else in one hand) because my fingers are fat, but once you get the rhythm down it becomes easier. - Sometimes the headphones experience a "click"/"pop" sound in the ear buds — something that is not supposed to be there. It's very subtle but it's also very annoying because you don't know when it happens, and it's honestly the thing I hate the most about these headphones. My first pair was "clicking" so often, I reached out to Amazon to exchange for a new pair. The 2nd pair is a lot better, however, it does still experience the clicking. If I figure out the "popping" issue, then I'll come back and update this review.

I would like to say right up front that these earbuds punch way above their weight for the price. I am a big over the ear headphone user going back for over 30 years. I have owned a lot of headphones ranging from my first crappy ones that came with my Toshiba Walkman to Sony and Sennheiser studio units. So I'm picky when it comes to sound. as for earbuds, I have used Sol Republic wired units and then moved on to Bose QC 1s and then Samsung Buds Pro. I liked how those sounded and the wireless units had decent battery life for me, I don't like having them in all the time like some folks do, it annoys me if I leave them in for to long. I chose these because after switching to an iPhone 15 pro max a yearish ago my Samsung BP2s just didn't work the same and the sound was meh. In my opinion Apple kneecaps any earbud that isn't an air pod so the fact that these come with an app that lets you play with settings and has an EQ sealed the deal for me. The alternatives weren't that appealing at the price points I was seeing for the Sony and Bose units and the reviews for the APP3 were not worth even considering. The in call mic quality is pretty good, you not going to sound like your in a fishbowl or muffled to the point no one can understand you like the Air Pods seem to be famous for. Build quality of the earbuds it fairly robust but the same cannot be said for their charging/carrying case. That is the trade off with these ear buds, the case looks nice but it just feels like it'll break if you drop it wrong. On the topic of dropping the case, the earbuds are held in with fairly strong magnets to the charging connection. I hated dropping my Samsung case because the buds would detach and scatter. The app is something I haven't really played with a lot yet so everything is set to default for right now. Sound is crisp and clear, they can drive good low end bass and have warm mids and clean highs. These are a great alternative to the big name companies.

The Nothing Ear (a) are excellent upper mid-range earbuds. I purchased the black version, which looks very sleek and minimalist. They offer a very well-balanced sound, and they are also very comfortable and lightweight, which makes them great for long listening sessions. Another strong point is the companion app, which is simple, intuitive, and easy to use. The connectivity with iPhone was also very easy thanks to the app, and the setup process was quick and straightforward. Although their Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is not as strong as some other options on the market, such as the Skullcandy Indy ANC, Galaxy Buds FE, or CMF Buds 2 Pro, this is not really an issue for me. My ears are quite sensitive, so I actually appreciate that the ANC isn’t overly aggressive. Their comfort, combined with how natural the transparency mode sounds, sometimes even makes me forget that I’m wearing them. In fact, the transparency mode is one of the best I’ve tried, even when compared to the AirPods Pro. It sounds very natural and lets you stay aware of your surroundings without the audio feeling artificial. Another thing I like is the fit. The earbuds stay secure in my ears, and they don’t fall out even when I’m running. As for the bass, it is solid and present. It doesn’t stand out like some high-end earbuds, but for a mid-range product it performs very well. Overall, the Nothing Ear (a) deliver a very complete experience. Rating: 8.7/10

Love the sound. I lost my Nothing earpiece and got this as a replacement. Will definitely recommend.

Update: Unfortunately, after a year of daily usage, they no longer hold a charge. If I can get 30 minutes of use out of them, I am lucky. I can no longer recommend them. Even if the price was affordable, having to buy a new pair every year makes them more expensive. I will invest on a more expensive pair that will last longer for my next pair of earbuds. Easy to pair. Works on dual devices. Last roughly 5 to 6 hours with anc on and extra bass going. Charges pretty guickly. 15 minutes will get you 2 hours. 30 to 40 for a full charge. Very comfortable in the ear when working or walking, but not while doing any sports. They fall off. Mic and sound are great. Loudish bass if you like this sort of thing. Anc is great. Manages to shut the guy up next desk over while doing teams call.

2 weeks in... Was very skeptical about buying these. Now I am no audiophile, but I do love music of all descriptions. I was tossing up very much between high end, high price tag headphones and the reviews were very mixed about these headphones. I am comparing these to previous buds Marshall Minor 3, Samsung Buds (original) and Sony XM3 buds. I have to say these probably exceed all of them. Very punchy bass, like surprisingly powerful for buds! It might be too much for some at standard settings but easily corrected in the EQ. I like the fact that if I want bass it's definitely an option. They look great, sounds great, App is really nice and refined and the price tag was great. The ANC is decent enough that at about 70-80% phone volume and ANC on high I can drown out my Gyms rubbish music which was important. Fit is comfortable, nice and light and have not had them pop out with vigorous runs on the treadmill. All in all I think it'd be hard to get better buds at this price

I dropped one of the earbuds in a boiling mop bucket with bleach. Too hot to retrieve, so they stayed in there until I dumped the water out. Dried them out on the window sill. They still work! Respect level up to 10.

Sarı renk çok yakışmış, samsung galaxy a25 5g ile kullanıyorum ve Nothing x uygulaması ile eşleştirme çok kolay ve hızlı. Uygulama üzerinden ayarlarını yapmak kolay ancak ekolayzır ayarları öyle çok detaylı değil. Mesela sadece daha fazla bas ya da sadece daha fazla tiz, dengeli, ses ve özel seçenekleri var. Özel üzerinden detaylı ayar yapabiliyorsunuz. Her kulaklığın üzerinde küçük bir düğme var, kontrolleri oradan yönetiyorsunuz ve oldukça detaylı. Çift cihaz destekliyor yani hem telefon hem de tablete aynı anda baglanabiliyorsunuz. Bluetooth LDAC protokolünü destekliyor ama sadece telefonunuz destekliyorsa, benim telefonum da var. Samsung telefonlarda geliştirici modülü açarsanız oradan açtıktan sonra Bluetooth kulaklık ayarlarına girip, oradan da LDAC seçeneğini seçmeniz gerekiyor. Bu ayarı yapmaya değer çünkü ses kalitesini çok yükseltiyor. ChatGPT desteği işe sadece Nothing telefonlara yönelik, başka markalar desteklenmiyor. Yani bu özellik için alacaksanız sakın almayın. Bunun dışında şimdiye kadar kullandığım en iyi kulaklardan biridir. Tavsiye ederim.
