Nothing launched its first pair of over-ear headphones under its main brand as the Nothing Head (1) (often referred to casually as the Nothing Headphone 1). Prior to this, their audio lineup consisted entirely of in-ear buds (Ear (1), Ear (2), Ear (a), etc.).

Key Highlights

Feature Details
Design Signature Nothing transparent aesthetic with a visible internal frame and subtle red accents.
Audio Quality Custom dynamic drivers tuned for balanced sound with detailed highs and punchy bass. Supports high-res codecs (LDAC / LHDC).
Noise Cancellation Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) with multiple levels and transparency mode.
Controls Tactile physical controls (dials/toggle switches) instead of unpredictable swipe gestures.
Battery Life Up to ~30–40 hours with ANC turned off (fast charging via USB-C).
