Nothing has expanded its premium audio lineup with the launch of the Headphone (1) Pro, its new flagship over-ear headphones. The successor to last year’s Headphone (1) brings a more premium build, a triple-driver audio setup and upgraded active noise cancellation (ANC).

The Nothing Headphone (1) Pro is priced at $399 (around Rs 38,400) in the US. The headphones are available in Black and White colour options. Nothing has listed the product on its India website, although the company has not yet confirmed an India launch date or price.

Triple-driver audio system
The biggest upgrade comes in the audio department. The Headphone (1) Pro uses three drivers in each earcup, including a 40mm dynamic driver for bass, a precision dynamic driver and an xMEMS driver designed to handle higher frequencies.
Nothing says the setup is designed to deliver deeper bass, clearer vocals and more detailed treble. The headphones also support Hi-Res Audio and codecs including AAC, SBC, LDAC and LC3.
The company has also partnered with Metropolis Studios for audio tuning. There is support for Dynamic Spatial Audio with head tracking, along with multiple listening modes.
Improved ANC and connectivity
The Headphone (1) Pro features a 10-microphone ANC system capable of reducing external noise by up to 46dB. It also supports Bluetooth 6.1, dual connectivity, Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair.
The headphones retain physical controls and add a dedicated Switch button for quickly accessing features such as Flat EQ.

Premium design and battery life
The overall design remains recognisable, but Nothing has upgraded the materials with glass, aluminium and titanium. The headband is wider, while the ear cushions are softer and thicker for improved comfort. The headphones weigh 327 grams and carry an IP52 rating.
A 1,060mAh battery is claimed to provide up to 30 hours with ANC enabled and 68 hours with ANC disabled. USB-C fast charging is also supported.
