After years of searching, my perfect ear bud has been found...
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.

Excellent Value.
I got these on sale and they cost about the same as my Skullcandy Dime Evos. These blow my Evos out of the water in every aspect but size. The Evos just disappear in my ear which makes them perfect for wearing at work so i forgave their less than stellar sound. My Earfun Air Pro 4 + sound and little bit richer and louder than these but those are also larger and heavier making them less comfortable for long periods. Also, my hoodie would pause my Earfuns intermittently due to their touch controls. The Ear (a) is a good middle ground between these two as far as size, fit and comfort which is my main concern when i buy earbuds. The Nothing app also has an ear fit test procedure which works perfectly. Perform the test, adjust the buds in ear and repeat until it says you got it right. This made it so much easier to aim them in my ear properly which i always kinda struggle with. I like the controls. Takes a little practice to use them but i like them now. Hard to get false inputs once you get used to them. The Evos and Earfuns were both prone to false inputs. Transparency and Noise cancel both work great but those are also features i dont really care about. The EQ adjustments are minimal and almost disappointing but at least its there. The EQ on my Skullcandy Evos is better. The Nothing aesthetic is a vibe. I got the white ones and they look awesome. I thought they looked kinda gimmicky or something before i got them but when i opened the box I was impressed. They look and feel like a higher quality product than what i paid for. The case is kinda slippery though and i havent figured out how to open it with one hand yet. If you are even remotely considering these and you find them on sale just buy them. Even at regular price i would have bought them, but thats the same price as the Earfun and i think some people will like those more. Personally, i like these more. Update: i accidentally washed the case: it still works fine 🙏

Issues with my first pair, but the replacements are great buds for the price.
Edit: The replacements are working fine for now. The fit is pretty nice, since they conform to the shape of the human ear. I still love the sound and the app (the transparency/noise cancelling modes, the dual-connection feature, and the in-ear detection are all features I will shout-out), so the only issues I have are with the case. The hinge can wear down pretty quickly causing it to shift side to side instead of just opening and closing like it should. Also, the buds can be fairly difficult to get back into the case, especially when you are trying to do so while they are in your pocket. The sound is great and the app is pretty good, but my right earbuds stopped charging past 70% not long after I received my item. I'm returning it for a replacement, and will update my review if this doesn't happen again. Lithium batteries can be weird, I get that.

Great Bluetooth Earphones, My Favorites So far!
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.

Great buds but plagued with terrible battery life
TLDR At the bottom. These buds have great sound quality, however you do need their app to adjust settings. They also feature ANC and quick toggles by pressing the right earbud. Buds can be used independently or together, and have dual-connection features that work well for an office setting. They mention LDAC and Hi Res support, and while they do technically support that, there is not enough bass to really appreciate those features. EDIT - There seems to be a connection issue where they will constantly skip like an old cd. Really jarring and annoying. The case is small and compact, but is a scratch haven. Even just sitting on my desk 90% of the time, the case is pretty banged up. It also loves to smudge up. The yellow and clear color looks great and is a fun splash in an otherwise dull market for color. The case does charge pretty quick, and it tends to hold charge well over periods of non-use. I've even used these at gym and they held their own. My main complaint with these buds is that the battery doesn't even last until noon anymore. ANC is typically off as it drains within 2 hours. I tend to use one bud at a time, and even with ANC/Hi res off, I find myself throwing them in the case or switching buds around 10/11am or even earlier. There also seems to be an issue that if the right bud is in the case, and you're using the left one, it fails to charge the right one properly and still treats it as on. This leaves me with no buds for at least half an hour so they can properly charge. Case and contacts are all clean, and it shows them as charging...it is just very very slow. I have only had these since the start of 2026, and for them to already be at this low of battery life seems concerning. When I first purchased them they lasted most of the day without issue. TLDR; Sounds quality is great, and ANC is good for the price. The battery life is just horrendous and will more than likely continue to decline with average use. If I had to buy again I would consider, but only if the life improved.

Great budget earbuds
I bought these to replace my old Samsung FE buds that are on their last legs and to complete my Nothing/CMF ecosystem. These sound miles better than those buds and are very bassy. If the bass is too much for you, you can easily adjust it in the Nothing X app. The noise cancellation is top tier considering the price. Even with the feature turned off it still creates a seal that blocks slight noise. Physical design of the case is like nothing out there. Very slim form factor that doesn't bulge in pockets or bags. It is a little tricky to place the buds into the case however, but you'll get used to it. The buds themselves were uncomfortable to wear in the beginning, but after experimenting with different ear tips and placements, they become somewhat comfortable. The buds use pinch controls on the stem. The controls are easy to use and can be customized to an extent in the app. The battery life is just ok. Only lasts a few hours with NC on and double that with it off. Look elsewhere if you want to use for long sessions. Other than my concerns with comfortablility and battery life, these are some of the best budget earbuds you can get, priced at $60 when I bought them.

Perfect for Work and Gym
Honestly I didn’t have much confidence in the brand; I bought them mainly for their design and based on personal recommendations. I usually end up damaging wireless earbuds quickly because I use them heavily and continuously, but these have turned out to be the most durable and useful ones I’ve owned. The noise cancellation is excellent for public spaces or gyms, and both the charging case and the earbuds are impressively resistant. The case once fell from the third floor while I was working and only got a minor scratch without affecting charging. On another occasion, one earbud fell into the toilet for about 20 seconds, and after drying it for a day, it worked perfectly again. Because of their durability, secure fit, and comfort, I highly recommend them for work or gym use. On top of that, their stylish design definitely catches people’s attention. Without a doubt, this was a great purchase.

Longevity not the best
The sound, look and comfort of these earbuds are truly amazing. They fit perfectly in my ear with minor moving (sweat, water from the shower etc) and yes I do wear them in the shower and they are just fine. The controls are MOSTLY easy to use and customizable which is nice but sometimes I’ll have to press it hard for it to register at all. I would give these a 5 star BUT the longevity IS AWFUL. I’ve had these 2 years and I used to use them all day everyday - at work, in class, at the gym and in the evening when I play games on my computer. Nowadays it won’t even last a couple hours without dying and that’s a fully charged case and earbuds. I am disappointed due to this fact because if it weren’t for the minor gripes and the degrade over the years I would think these were absolutely perfect.

Fantastic Price for Fantastic Ear Buds
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

Amazing
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.

Très bon rapport qualité/prix - très bon son, très bonnes basses - confort au top
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.

Suenan muy bien me encantaron
Excelentes audífonos, el sonido me encanto la opción de aumentar bajos esta genial para los que nos gusta los bajos profundos, al usar la opción de cancelación de ruido senti que aumento un poco mas el bajo que para mi esta mas que genial, los tonos medios aun con los bajos se escuchan claros bien y no distorsionan, otro punto es que se adaptan bien al oído y no cansan, la app es muy intuitiva. En resumen muy contento con mi compra
