The Nothing Ear (open) Is Perfect — That’s Why I Returned Mine

A good earbud is hard to come by and even harder to keep clean sometimes. When I finally got my hands on the Nothing Ear (a), I knew I had hit the jackpot with headphones, and ultimately found peak sound quality.

Nothing Ear (open); Nothing

Naturally, when I found out the Nothing Ear (open) was hitting the market, I was ecstatic. A few days later they were at my door.

The packaging — as I had come to expect — was perfect and minimal. The setup was easy, and while I was a little thrown by the eclair-esque case shape, the technology that Nothing had packed inside of these little companion pieces was much more than what meets the eye.

Nothing Ear (open); Nothing

The engineering of the Nothing Ear (open) is a work of art and spares no creative expense. The fit was great and the open earbuds settled on the ridges and curves of my ears perfectly with the custom Sound Seal System making sure my sound remained mine. The advanced EQ and automatic bass enhancement were a pleasant surprise, too, as that hasn’t been what I’ve come to expect from anything outside of my ear canal.
