Nothing have just released a new video with the Design team, chatting about headphones. It’s below if you missed it, but it sounds like (get it!) like they are definitely cooking.
Whilst brief, they talked about making a pair of headphones they actually want to use. They went on to say they want to release headphones that say something about you and help you feel great when you wear them.
They also threw a little shade at the AirPods Max (lol), saying that their pricing is expensive. Tom even said he thinks Nothing’s over-ear headphones are “better than Airpods Max”! They talked about their extensive experience in the audio sector from the previous Ear launches and how, with their partners, they’re now ready for the next step with over-ears.
They also discussed the usual unintuitive button design and user experience with over-ears currently on the market, which they’re trying to fix.
No specs or designs yet, but feels like classic Nothing: bold, different, and for us. We’re still yet to hear about pricing too, but it seems they’ll definitely be better value than AirPods Max.
I think a pair of headphones is something I’ve definitely wanted to see from Nothing since Ear (1) first came out. Confirmed to be coming this summer, anyone else excited? 👀
