Nothing Wireless Earphones Nothing Ear (a): [VGP 2025 Gold Award] / Active Noise Cancellation / Bluetooth / Up to 42.5 Hours Playback / Hi-Res Audio C

【Advanced Design】The Ear (a) further enhances transparency with Nothing's signature style, adopting a slim and compact design. It fits comfortably in the hand and is easy to carry in a pocket or bag. Furthermore, the redesigned earphone placement makes it intuitively easier to distinguish between left and right, and the alignment with the case opening has been improved for greater ease of use.

【Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)】Compared to the adaptive ANC featured in the Ear (2), the Ear (a) achieves noise cancellation optimized for specific scenes. By selecting "Adaptive" mode in the Nothing X app, the Ear (a) automatically adjusts the noise cancellation level (high, medium, low) according to the surrounding noise. It detects distracting sounds in the surroundings, and the user does not need to do anything.

【Up to 45dB Noise Cancellation】With up to 45dB of noise cancellation, the sense of escapism is further enhanced. The most powerful noise cancellation to date provides an even more immersive sound experience. With 45dB of noise cancellation—a 13% improvement over Ear (2)—it achieves up to 1.8 times the noise reduction effect. It now responds not only to the magnitude of external noise but also to the type of noise. Covering a bandwidth of up to 5000Hz, it effectively detects and reduces irritating sounds.

[11mm Dynamic Driver] The new 11mm dynamic driver is more compact than the previous driver while providing 2.5 times the transient output. Furthermore, the innovative dual-chamber design with two additional vents improves airflow and enhances sound quality. Ear (a) delivers a **10%** improvement, resulting in clearer and more powerful sound.

[Long-Lasting Performance] For all conversations and all activities. The new compact driver allows for more battery space without sacrificing sound quality. This means Ear (a) can play for up to 42.5 hours with the case. For quick startup, just 10 minutes of charging provides up to 10 hours of use with the charging case.
