Let's play

Made for every part of every day, Ear (a) is for the music lovers.

In signature Nothing fashion, Ear (a) evolves our transparent design but takes an iconic new direction with a fresh bubble design. Your pocket's new best friend.

Ahead of the curve

Slim new frame

Let's go yellow

With its raised contours and bubble-like appearance, the case for Ear (a) takes inspiration from everyday pill packets. 




Featuring soft contours with a slimmer rectangular format. Extra comfortable for holding in hands or sliding into pockets. Still light as a feather with a total weight of 49.2 g, and just 4.8 g per earbud.

With transparency, our products showcase the inner workings of technology. We apply the same philosophy to colour. If we strip back how colours are built, we are left with the primary colours. This led us to Ear (a) yellow. A vivid and playful audio product, capable of producing a sound that’s just as bright.

اسمع أينما كنت

Up to 45 dB

Our strongest noise cancellation yet.

So you can go from quiet rooms to busy streets without hearing a thing (other than what's playing).

Smart Active Noise Cancellation

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.

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, so you don't have to.

Extra deep, extra clear

With a driver designed to protect each and every detail, high notes hit deeper and lows feel richer.

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.

Powerful 11 mm driver. Clear, rich, punchy

Ear (a) enhances low frequencies in your music in real-time, elevating bass-heavy sounds so that you can hear every detail.

Bass Enhance algorithm. New depths

To protect sound details, Ear (a) is Hi-Res Audio Certified for playback up to 990 kbps and frequencies up to 24 bit/96 kHz. 



Compatible with the widely supported LDAC* codec for high-resolution streaming over Bluetooth. The result is a powerfully pure audio experience. Just how the artist intended.



* Requires devices that support LDAC

Hi-Res Wireless Audio certified. Powerfully pure

Play on and on and on

All talk, all action. We’ve made space for a bigger battery without compromising on sound. So you can listen for longer.

Clear Voice Technology
