Quite advanced TWS earbuds from the British startup Nothing Technology. Despite the model being simply named "Ear", this is the third edition of the true wireless headset released in 2024. The Nothing Ear is equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers with a ceramic diaphragm for a clearer rendering of high frequencies. To enhance airflow, additional ventilation openings are included in the earbuds.

The model connects via the wireless Bluetooth v5.3 protocol and supports LHDC 5.0 and LDAC codecs for high-definition audio streaming. A standout feature of the earbuds is Smart ANC active noise cancellation, which cuts out external noise up to 45 dBA. With noise cancellation enabled, the earbuds have a battery life of about 5 hours, and without it — up to 9 hours. When charged with the case, the model lasts "afloat" for 24 and 40 hours, respectively. Notably, the charging case features IP55 dust and water resistance, while the earbuds have a slightly lower rating at IP54. Additionally, the model claims support for the ChatGPT chatbot, which can be configured through the Nothing X mobile app.

Popular questions

Verified 19 august, Olexandr Cherkashchenko

Can they be used for training in the rain?

Light splashes are permissible: the earphones have an IP54 rating, while the charging case has an IP55 rating. This does not mean they are waterproof, so they must not be submerged in water or used for swimming. The package includes three pairs of silicone ear tips, but there is no information on how securely the earphones stay in place during active movement.

How long do they last with ANC enabled?

The specifications state up to 5.2 hours of playback with noise cancellation and up to 9 hours without it. The charging case increases the total playback time to 24 or 40.5 hours, respectively, but the earbuds will need to be returned to the case periodically. Fast charging is also advertised: 10 minutes of charging provides up to 10 hours of use.

How well do they block out noise on public transport or in the office?

Based on the provided data, it is impossible to assess the actual effectiveness of the noise cancellation. The headphones feature adaptive ANC and a separate transparency mode; however, the mere presence of these functions does not indicate how well they handle hum, voices, and sudden sounds. If ANC quality is the main purchasing criterion, there is not enough information to draw a confident conclusion.

Will I be able to listen to music via LDAC or LHDC?

Yes, Nothing Ear (3) support LDAC and LHDC, as well as AAC. The required codec must also be supported by the source device; otherwise, the connection will use another available option. The mere presence of Hi-Res Audio and these codecs does not guarantee higher-quality sound with every connection.

Are they suitable for mobile gaming without any noticeable audio delay?

Nothing Ear (3) features a low-latency gaming mode, but no precise latency measurements are available. Therefore, perfect synchronization or suitability for competitive gaming on any device cannot be guaranteed. Actual performance may depend on the phone, game, and selected codec.

What can be configured in the Nothing X app?

With Nothing X, you can control the headphones, adjust the sound, and find a lost earbud. The specifications also list an advanced equalizer, Bass Boost, and personalized sound profiles. The list of supported operating systems is not provided here, so it is best to check the app’s compatibility with your device before purchasing.

Can I connect the headphones to a phone and a laptop simultaneously?

The headphones support Multipoint, so multi-device functionality is available. However, the specifications do not state the number of simultaneous connections or describe exactly how switching between sources works. The ability to mix audio from two devices simultaneously is also not specified.
