Nothing Headphone (1) Goes Official With Unique Aesthetics, 40mm Drivers, & ANC: Check Details Here

At its launch event in London, Nothing unveiled not only the Phone (3) but also its first-ever over-ear headphones: Headphone (1). About four years ago, the Car Pei-led brand began its journey in the consumer technology market by releasing the Nothing Ear (1), a value-for-money pair of TWS earbuds with features like ANC and the classic Nothing aesthetic.

The Headphone (1) are built using the same design language, which is why there are no other over-ear headphones that look or closely resemble them in the market.

Nothing Headphone (1) Design

Let’s address the elephant in the room: the Headphone (1)’s design. Throughout the headphones’ body, you’ll find transparent elements infused with aluminum (which forms the rectangle-shaped earcup). It also features telescopic arms for smooth adjustment around the head.

On the inside, the Headphone (1) features earcups that utilize PU memory foam (oil-resistant) to conform naturally to the listener’s head shape. The materials reduce ear pressure and provide a secure, comfortable seal for all-day wear, suitable for a wide range of head shapes.
