True mastery

We've evolved our technology to take music to new realms. Highs go higher, lows sink deeper. With pristine clarity and immaculate control over every lyric and note.

Custom ceramic driver

Ultra compact but beyond powerful. Our 11 mm driver delivers an unbeatable audio experience.

Coupled with a new ceramic diaphragm, we’ve increased airflow by 10% within each bud. For less distortion and richer clarity.

Hi-Res Wireless Audio

Ear supports high-resolution streaming over Bluetooth. The result is powerfully pure audio with no quality damage. Just how the artist intended.

Up to 1 Mbps 24 bit/192 kHz with LHDC 5.0 and up to 990 kbps with frequencies up to 24 bit/96 kHz with LDAC*.




* Requires devices that support 
LHDC or LDAC

Bass Enhance algorithm

Enhance bass-heavy sounds and hear every detail, in real-time. Our algorithm detects and elevates the low frequencies in your music. So you never miss a beat. Toggle in the Nothing X app.

Advanced Equaliser

Go beyond treble and bass and tune music to exactly how you want to hear it. Create separate profiles for different genres. Then share or import via QR code.

Personal Sound Profile

Tailors music to how you hear on an individual scale. Create your hearing ID in the Nothing X app. The data recorded is then used in real-time to intelligently adjust equaliser levels on your hearing test results.

All music, no noise


Up to 45 dB

Nothing but the music. With up to 45 dB Active Noise Cancellation, Ear features our most effective and intelligent noise cancelling powers yet. Now 1.8x stronger than Ear (2).

Smart Active Noise Cancellation

Ear 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 take control. By selecting 'Adaptive' in the Nothing X app, Ear automatically applies the right level of noise cancellation according to your surroundings in real time, so you don't have to.
