Review: AWESOME. - I did a good amount of research and read a lot of positive reviews on these Nothing Ear (a) buds and bought them to replace a set of Costco-bought Hypersonic earbuds after I lost the left one. Didn't want to spend $250 - $300 on earbuds so the Ear (a) buds were in the range I was looking for. I am not what I'd call an "audiophile." although I do most of my headphone listening on a pricey pair of Beyerdynamic T1's powered through a Beyerdynamic A1 headphone amp, and I am a musician so my trained ear DOES appreciate quality sound. These slick little Ear (a) buds did not disappoint! I use them with an iPhone and they produce nice, clean sound with great range and tonality. Good separation regardless of the type of music you like to listen to. The fit is snug but comfortable (and they come with 3 different size soft ear bulbs for many ear shapes and sizes). The noise cancelling does not totally block louder outside sounds but, when combined with a proper fit, it is adequate even when doing noisy tasks like mowing the lawn or using power tools. So when using them in more normal settings, like on a plane or in a room of people talking, they are very good at screening out extraneous noise so you can focus on the music. The bluetooth connection is easy and solid and they have not randomly disconnected once since I've had them, unlike other earbuds I've used. And I love the the bright yellow color! Sure makes it easy to spot them when I set them down somewhere and have to search the house for them (happens a lot!). Battery life seems very good and recharging is quick. I can easily get an entire day of listening out of one charge. Oh, and the app is fantastic for controlling the buds and customizing the sound with the equalizer to set your own personal listening preference. I'm hoping these Nothing Ear (a) buds last a long time and I'd highly recommend them!
Review: Best Earbuds On The Market - I don't usually use earbuds that often, nor have I had many situations where I would want/need them. But I've started going on walks/jogs and getting out more and these ones caught my eye. I've already been familiar with the Nothing brand products like the phone (which I might switch to next time I upgrade as it looks quite nice). And I had heard of their earbuds before so I decided to grab a pair before they sold out. I chose the yellow ones, with the black interior of the earbuds with the clear case they look so sleek and overall just satisfying to look at. The earbuds work amazingly! Sound quality is top notch, and the app used alongside them is simple to use and quite convenient. They have your typical wireless earbud touch control features that most have these days. But I think what sets these apart is the quality. I think they were like 10-15% off when I bought them yesterday, and I paid just $100, so a little bit cheaper than Air Pods. I'd say they're definitely better in every way too, Apply products are just all around not great anyways and they're a terrible greedy company so I refuse to ever purchase or use their products. If you want some extremely good looking top notch quality wireless earbuds these are the ones you should go for. The noise cancellation is crazy good although I probably wouldn't be using it too much as I like to be aware of my surroundings if I'll be wearing them in both ears when I'm out and about. Definitely a 10/10 product that if taken good care of could last a very long time. I'm not sure how long battery life is but it seems good. Highly recommend these!

## Features

- Powerful 11 mm driver: We've made our driver even more compact. With double the power than Ear (2), Ear (a) delivers an even deeper bass performance. The extra space gives sound waves more room to vibrate. With two new vents, airflow is improved inside the bud. For less distortion and richer overall clarity
- Smart Active Noise Cancellation: Up to 45 dB,Nothing Ear (a) automatically checks for noise leakage between the earbud and your ear canal, then applies more noise cancellation to make up for it. So you receive the best possible noise cancellation. Happens every time you put them in. So you can go from quiet rooms to busy streets without hearing a thing (other than what's playing)
- Clear Voice Technology: Clear as day. Ear (a) isolates your voice from everyday distractions so calls on-the-go feel like face-to-face conversations. With a new talk mic and extra airway on the stem for wind to pass through, we’ve reduced interference by 60% compared to Ear (2)
- Long Playtime, Fast Charging: For speedy power-ups, Ear (a) can Fast Charge for 10 minutes and deliver 10 hours of music playback (with ANC turned off). Compared to Ear (2), Ear (a) can deliver 40.5% more non-stop play time on a single charge. Or pop your earbuds back in the case and stretch listening time to over 42.5 hours (with ANC turned off)
- More Performance: Low Lag mode,Reduced audio lag for better gaming. Stay connected to two devices at the same time. Play music on your laptop then seamlessly switch to answer a call on your phone. Effortless. Adaptive ANC,Next-level escapism. Switch between 3 levels of noise cancellation. Or let Ear (a) take control. By selecting 'Adaptive' in the Nothing X app, Ear (a) automatically applies the right level of noise cancellation according to your surroundings in real time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These are the best budget earbuds from Nothing
*by K***B on July 26, 2025*

These are the best cheap earbuds from Nothing that are not from CMF. These Earbuds are light in weight, including there actually pretty small. On a call, using mic on these are clear including wind-proof technology, it helps to effectively remove wind noises from a call. The connection for Bluetooth is really strong and you can also change to AAC or LDAC for high quality audio, and good Functionality. The sound quality is very bassy good! When you toggle Bass Enhancement, it makes it more bassy and handles lower frequencys better, and there's 5 levels, it's on by default. You can costum your own EQ, but it doesn't support Advance EQ. The charging is super fast but it doesn't support wireless charging which is a bummer for some people. The noise cancellation is good but doesn't really compete with other companies like Bose or Sony, it come's with different levels of strength for noise cancellation, if you turn on Adaptive Noise Cancellation it will listen and study the noise around you, if you in a quiet environment but there is some light noise like the AC, it will automatically adjust to Low, a little bit louder will be Mid, and then stuff like sirens or honking somewhere busy and loud it will automatically crank it up to the highest strength of noise cancellation. Now lastly durability, I gotten these Earbuds yesterday and I dropped it on my tile floor 2 times by, openings and unboxing wrong, accidentally pushing it off my couch and no damage. The box is pretty confusing, I recommend by opening and unboxing it on the table, and don't open it backwards to event it from dropping. Overall if you want a little bit stronger noise cancellation, a little more bass, and wireless charging as well, go with the Nothing Ear or the Nothing Ear (2) if you want those extra features (There are more features on the Nothing Ear 1, Nothing Ear 2 that I didn't discuss about)
