Round Two: Nothing’s Ear (2) Earbuds are a Knockout

However, earphones or headphones that allow you to customize the sound profile according to your preference are a blessing. Since it has been a popular feature for a while now, Nothing is certainly capitalizing on that demand. Nothing, although a young company, made sure to include personalization of sound via a quick hearing test in its new product, Nothing Ear (2). Nothing’s first release back in 2021 gave us the Ear (1) wireless earbuds which were quite astounding with the unique design, great sound, and decent ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) for just $99. Although it isn’t close to being the best in any category, they easily made up the list of electronic devices that caught our attention.  [caption id="attachment_126064" align="aligncenter" width="1200"] Image Source: GSMArena[/caption] While many believed that the Ear (1) wireless earbuds were a one-trick pony from Nothing– especially with the surge in price to $149– Nothing was quick to beat the allegations by releasing the Ear (2). The Ear (2) boasts custom 11.6-millimeter drivers that demonstrate they are here for all or (N)othing.  The Ear (2) aren't a major redesign of the Ear (1) and seems relatively similar to the originals, save from the microphones being placed to the outside of each earbud's stem to minimize noise from the wind when making calls outside.  Most wireless headphones or earbuds today offer sound customization either through EQ sliders or offer a limited variety of preset EQ settings for different genres of music. However, things are not the same with Nothing Ear (2) which provides more personalized customization- first using an Ear Tip Fit Test to ensure you are wearing the correct size and fit for its silicone ear tips, and then via a hearing test in the Nothing X app. The hearing test in Ear (2) simply asks users to identify whether they can or cannot hear a series of sounds played at different frequencies. The results are then used to generate a personally tailored Hearing ID, which the Nothing X app uses to adjust the Ear (2)’s equalizer settings. This sort of customization emphasizes on what a user can and cannot hear rather than their musical tastes. The Ear (2) gets an updated charging case, not too different from the Ear (1)’s case, although slightly smaller. In addition, the Ear (2) is also easily portable much like the Nothing Ear (1).
