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 am very picky with my audio devices, but here's the review. 5/5 for price to quality, feels premium(enough) definitely more than the price of $79usd. Sound quality is good! Very tune-able with a on board equalizer that can be found in the Nothing App. The Nothing App is perfect, would not change a thing about it. quickly access any settings with the buds you want. Noise cancellation is ok, but good enough for the price. I just feel like its not as "cancelling" as I would want a headphone, but they get the job done. Pass-through is also ok, I would like it to be a bit more clear. But as stated, for $79 they work, and well. Wish they had wireless charging but its not the end of the world. Wore them on a plane ride that was 4 hours, battery was not a problem for me, even with noise cancelling (maybe I had to take them out for like 5-10 minutes at most to charge them up) but that's fine with me. I will say after about 3 hours, they did start feeling just a little uncomfortable. However, that happened to me even when I had Airpods and wore them for the same duration. Naturally I think there are things that can be fixed with these. But for the price, I'm not mad. And would buy them again if I needed to.

The Context: My 3-Screen Chaos As a freelancer, my workflow is a weird hybrid: I design and manage tasks on my MacBook, handle heavy lifting or gaming on my Windows PC, and my personal life runs on Android. For the longest time, audio was a headache. I was looking for a single pair of earbuds that could keep up with my pace without interruptions. This is where the Nothing Ear (a) changed the game. The "Glue" of My Ecosystem (Connectivity) What I value most is how ridiculously simple it is to rotate between my three worlds. The "Dual Connection" is the real deal. Real-world scenario: I’m zoned in editing on the Mac, and a call comes in on my phone (Android). The audio switches automatically, I take the call, hang up, and the music jumps right back to the Mac. Zero buttons, zero stress. The jump to Windows: When I switch over to the desktop PC, pairing is instant. Gone are the days of "disconnect here to connect there." They are my sole audio resource now, and they work as if they were native to every system. Battery for Marathon Workdays This is vital: the battery is endless. Being self-employed, I don't work 9-to-5; sometimes it's more like 12-hour shifts. These buds stick with me all day without begging for a charge. I’ve had days where I finish work, go to the gym, and they still have juice. The peace of mind of knowing they won't die on me in the middle of a meeting or a render is priceless. Sometimes I go days before needing to charge the case again. Audio Quality: The Truth About AAC I’m picky about audio, but I’m also practical. I know many people obsess over hi-res codecs (LDAC, etc.), but the reality is that even using the standard AAC codec (which plays nicest with Mac), the sound is excellent. The bass is deep without being muddy, and voices on video calls are crisp. I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything; the sound engineering is so good it makes even standard formats shine. Verdict: The Smartest Buy of the Year To be honest, for the price, I doubt there is another pair of earbuds out there that offers a more complete experience. There are options from Sony or Apple that cost double or triple, but none have given me this perfect balance of design, beastly battery life, and such fluid integration between Windows, Mac, and Android. They aren't just "cool" earbuds; they are a serious work tool that won't break the bank.

This is a solid product. Great audio quality, Nothing's app with a less in depth EQ but still plenty of customization options. The feel is nice, the case is solid and looks sleek. They fit better in my ears than most but certainly not the best fit I've felt. The audio quality is unbeatable for the price, there are better earbuds out there but none that look as cool and sound as good. They're a solid entry level earbud and work very well in a daily setting.

I’ve been using the Ear (a) daily for music, calls, and commuting, and they’ve been great overall. The bass hits way harder than I expected without drowning out vocals, and everything still sounds clean. Noise cancellation is solid, it automatically adjusts and actually makes a difference when moving from indoors to busy streets. Call quality is noticeably better too; people can hear me clearly even when it’s windy outside. Battery life is a big win, especially with fast charging, I can get hours of use from a quick top-up. Low lag mode is clutch for gaming and watching videos with no annoying delay. Switching between my phone and laptop is seamless and works exactly how it should. The design feels lightweight but premium, and they’re comfortable for long sessions. Overall, these punch way above their price and feel like a legit upgrade from previous Nothing earbuds.

I have been a long time Airpods Pro user, specifically because I need the silicone ear tips to keep the buds in my ears. The included tips with these all fit snuggly in my weird ear canal. I wanted a pair of wireless headphones to use with my work computer but couldn’t justify another pair of airpods. I came across these and grabbed them on sale. I can’t believe how good these sound for the price. I am genuinely quite impressed with the audio quality, and the microphone works well enough that I use these for Teams/Slack calls now too. They seem to have great battery life and the Nothing app works well too. The volume gets loud enough that I’ve never maxed them out. The ANC works well enough but my Airpods Pro are definitely better. The translucent design and the yellow color is just another extra point in their favor. Really impressed with these after a couple months of use.

I have to say these earbuds are super comfortable along with the sound it is great value for money, but I think LDAC only works with Android, but for €100 hifi quality sound of such is just great! I recommend. Only downside is the noise cancellation is not best, but for the price it is understandable.

J'ai craqué sur ces écouteurs suite à la lecture d'un comparatif les classant comme concurrent direct des airpods et autres écouteurs haut de gamme. Et pour 85€ je ne suis clairement pas déçu. Ce sont de très très bons écouteurs. Le son est clair et précis tant dans les aigus que les médium et des basses sont ... assez magnifiques. Je les ais comparé à mes marshall major III, mes Jabra Evolve2 85 et mes Genki Waveform. Et de constater qu'ils ont la meilleure clarté de son. Je redécouvre mes musiques habituelles et me rend compte que les basses peuvent être mélodieuses !!! Le test de "Bohemian Rhapsody" est sans appel. La réduction active de bruit fonctionne relativement bien. Elle est moins efficace que mes écouteurs Jabra Evolve2 85 (écouteurs circum-aural) mais c'est normal lié à leur design supra-aural. Et on parle de Jabra, un des meilleurs au niveau réduction active de bruit. Le mode transparence est également un poil moins performant que mes Jabra (pareil due à leur design et aux 10 superbes micros de Jabra qui permettent une clarté des voix et de la réduction de bruit... ). Et ce ne sont pas des intra-aural mais bien des supra-aural. Ils sont confortables, se posent bien dans le creux de l'oreille et tiennent bien en place. J'avais un peut peur qu'ils puissent glisser pendant les mouvements et en fait non ils tiennent bien, longtemps et sans gène (même en machant des chewing gums !!!) Quand au design j'adore. Tout en transparence et en simplicité. Comme toute la gamme Nothing (je les ais pris en blanc). et la boite tient dans la poche à gousset des jeans !!! Je les ai toujours sur moi ! Que du positif : Clairement des écouteurs premium à pris moyen de gamme.

It really worth it

Excelente producto. Por el precio tiene una calidad de audio inmejorable.

Ich habe mir die Nothing Ear (a) gekauft und bin wirklich begeistert. Die Kopfhörer sehen nicht nur super modern aus, sondern fühlen sich auch hochwertig an. Der Sound ist klar, ausgewogen und überraschend kräftig – egal ob Musik, Podcasts oder Telefonate, alles klingt richtig gut. Besonders praktisch finde ich die aktive Geräuschunterdrückung. Straßenlärm oder Bahnfahrten werden zuverlässig ausgeblendet, ohne dass ein unangenehmer Druck entsteht. Auch die Passform ist sehr angenehm – selbst nach längerer Zeit drücken sie nicht und sitzen sicher. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die Akkulaufzeit. Mit dem Ladecase komme ich locker durch mehrere Tage, ohne überhaupt ans Aufladen denken zu müssen. Die Verbindung über Bluetooth ist stabil und bricht nie ab. Alles in allem bekommt man hier Spitzenqualität zu einem starken Preis. Für mich gehören die Nothing Ear (a) definitiv zu den besten Kopfhörern in dieser Preisklasse. Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
