You can't go wrong with these!
I have 2 pair of the Nothing (a)'s and love them. I decided to step it up and give the Nothing (3) a shot... And WOW, totally worth the extra bucks. The case is really nifty with the Super Mic on it is actually nice to have, especially in a noisy environment. It works very well. The sound is fantastic, deep bass and good highs & mids. And you have the ability to really customize them with extra features within the app. These are better than my Samsung Buds 3 pro for sure! The battery lasts! ANC is okay, but acceptable, ambient is good as well. To sum it up, you won't be sorry.

Exceeds expectations!
The design of the case and buds is really unique and eye catching. The case is partly aluminum so feels really high quality. The battery life is on par with other premium wireless earbuds and the buds them selfs fit well if you have larger ears. The squeeze controls work just as well as airpods pro The nothing X app is also really great. It allows controller customization and very precise EQ controll. You will definitely need EQ adjustment for these, out of the box they have quite muddy bass. Luckily customizing the EQ can allow the sound signiture to be basically flat. The transparency mode and noise canceling are nothing special but it's okay for the price. The super mic is definitely just a gimmick and barely sounds better than the mic on the buds but it's still a cool feature and I hope they are able to improve it with the next gen. Overall these are good for the price but the more expensive buds from more well known brands are definitely going to be better

Surprisingly powerful and well balanced earbuds!
I recently purchased this Nothing Ear 3 earbuds, and I’ve been genuinely impressed. The first thing that stood out to me is the Active Noise Cancellation - it’s incredibly effective for this price range. It blocks out background noise beautifully, whether I’m on public transport or working in office. The sound quality is also remarkable. The bass response is deep and rich, yet it doesn’t overpower the mids and highs. Vocals sound clean and detailed, and the overall sound signature feels very balanced and natural. Comfort-wise, the earbuds fit snugly and feel lightweight even after hours of use. The transparent design gives them a unique and premium look. Considering the price, would say it’s not cheap but it easily outperforms many competitors in the same range. The combination of solid build quality, impressive ANC, and great sound makes them an easy recommendation for anyone looking for stylish, high-performing earbuds without breaking the bank.

Great earbuds with some hefty considerations before purchase
The nothing ear 3 is a slight improvement over the previous model I had (ear 2). Despite being 2 generations removed, Nothing has made improvements that would benefit any user who has an older model. Pros: - improved battery life which is HUGE for me. My older model would die before my international flight ended. These do a good job requiring fewer charges. - quality internal metal pieces that help the aesthetic of the case - microphone is improved slightly - the gesture variety has been useful - spacial audio functionality - drivers seem to be more pronounced when making eq adjustments rather than small incremental changes - the sound is better than some of the higher priced brands. Sony's 2025 model and airpods pro do not have the same dynamic range, eq control, and more importantly integration across different devices. Cons - ear tips are still terrible, they fall out while running/making most head movements. Fit can vary but I needed to go 3rd party. There has been no improvement from the original I purchased. - "talk" button is tactile and usable but it's not necessarily a big difference compared to the in-ear microphone quality. It does block out surroundings better (and yes, I have been using it to Pei's recommendation) but it's just not worth it. It's really just a gimmick and I would sacrifice battery life/size if it meant the product would work better. - The plastic top is easily scratched. I recommend getting a case for it because throwing them in your bag or pocket will inevitably scratch that up. This is the same with the ear 2, however. - ANC is lackluster. For it's price, it needs to compete with others in the category so I think it fairs fine but comparing these the software to the Sony's and Apple's of the world it isn't great. I'm still able to hear things like background music at my gym. Overall, I would recommend these if you had a previous pair or enjoy the aesthetic of Nothing's incredible craftsmanship. There are some key issues that could make it better and I do think for the price point you can't do much better. I believe in Pei's vision for the company and love that he is transparent with the shortcomings the product has. I just wish ANC could be better because they truly are one of the best sounding wireless earbuds on the market.

Impressive and well-designed earbuds
I just saw a some earbuds review video on YouTube and then this product hit me at my first sight. Absolutely worth the price because of the design, the noise cancellation and the battery life. For the battery, it last a coupe days which was very helpful for me. The active noise cancellation, which I don't even have great expectation on it, end up being the most impressive part of this earbud. I have had bose and sony noise cancellation earphone before and this one is very close to this famous nrand. Volume control by the touch button on the earbud is very convenient, very easy to connect. This earbud has so many functions but the most genius design is the talk function, which make me easier when I have phone call on the train. I feel like I can't leave it now

Aesthetic AND great functionality!
Bought this for my boyfriend. LOVE this so much that I am considering buying this for myself once my AirPods break. The design is soooo aesthetic, and I love the mic feature on the case too. The quality is the same as AirPod Pros! The mic quality is nice and crisp, too. It's most definitely worth the money...especially because it's stylish. :)

Solid Sound and ANC, Case Mic Is Neat – Battery Could Be Better
I picked up the Nothing Ear (3) in white because I travel a lot for work and I was tired of shouting on calls in airports and windy streets. I used to live in Florida, now I’m in Delaware, so between conference calls, flights, and noisy hotel lobbies, I wanted earbuds with strong ANC, good mics, and decent battery that don’t look like everything else. My expectation: clear calls, punchy but not muddy sound, ANC that kills plane drone, and a case that isn’t a fingerprint magnet. I didn’t expect Bose-level ANC for the price. What you get & setup These are the Ear (3) with 12mm drivers, 45dB hybrid ANC, six mics in the buds, plus the “Super Mic” built into the aluminum case. You press a button on the case and talk into it for calls or voice notes. They’re IP54, support LDAC, dual-connect, and work with the Nothing X app for EQ, Personal Sound tests, and ANC modes. I paired them with an iPhone and a Windows laptop. Pros – what I actually like Sound is fun and detailed: Bass is definitely boosted out of the box – “overpowering, but in a fun and enjoyable way” – but it’s not muddy. Vocals come through clear and there’s more space than the last gen. Instrument separation is better. If you like low-end, you’ll like these. If not, the 8-band EQ in the app can tame it. ANC is strong for the price: On High, it knocks out AC, office chatter, and plane rumble pretty well. Testing shows about 35dB in lows and 38dB in highs, roughly 82% noise reduction. Not Sony WF-1000XM5 level, but good for $179. Transparency mode is natural enough for quick chats. Call quality with Super Mic: The case mic is the party trick. Press the button and talk into the case – it cuts wind and background noise better than bud mics alone. My calls have been clearer, especially outside. Regular bud mics are fine too, with bone-conduction pickup. Comfortable fit & design: The stem design sits well in my ears and doesn’t fall out on runs. The aluminum base on the case feels more premium than the old all-plastic ones. App + features: Dual-connect works smoothly between phone and laptop. Personal Sound does a quick hearing test and tailors EQ – it actually helped. Wireless charging and fast USB-C charging are here too. Cons – the trade-offs Battery life is mid: Nothing claims 5.5 hours ANC on, 22 hours total with case. In real use I got about 5 hours and change with ANC on, and the case only stretches that to ∼22 hours. The older Nothing Ear did 8+ hours. If you use LDAC, it drops to ∼3.5 hours. I’m charging the case more often than I’d like. Wind is still an issue: ANC is strong, but wind hitting the buds can overwhelm it and cause whooshing. The case mic helps on calls, but for music ANC outdoors isn’t perfect. Default tuning is bass-heavy: If you want neutral, you’ll be in the EQ. Out of the box it’s V-shaped with “noticeably heavy” low-end that can feel “overwhelming” on some songs. Highs can also get a little sharp on certain tracks. Price creep: At $179, they’re $30 more than the last gen. You’re paying for the aluminum case and Super Mic. If you don’t need the case mic, the older Ear or Ear (a) are cheaper. Case mic is situational: It works, but you have to pull the case out and hold it. Not ideal if your hands are full. And you can’t use it if the case is in your backpack. Practical uses I’ve had Great for flights – ANC + LDAC + EQ’d sound made 3-hour trips easy. I use dual-connect daily to flip between laptop Zoom and iPhone. The case mic saved me on a windy call outside PHL airport. For the gym, the IP54 rating and secure fit held up, and transparency mode let me hear announcements. Not my pick if you need 8+ hour battery days without the case. Did they meet expectations? Mostly yes. I wanted better call quality and strong ANC with a fun sound signature, and I got that. The Super Mic isn’t a gimmick – it does help. I didn’t expect class-leading battery or the flattest tuning, so I’m not disappointed there. I do wish battery life matched the older model. Value for money For $179, you get a lot: LDAC, good ANC, dual-connect, wireless charging, solid app, and that unique case mic. They undercut Sony/Bose by a lot while giving 80–90% of the performance. If you don’t care about the mic or metal case, the cheaper Ear (a) might be smarter. If you want the features, it’s fair.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top Design & starker Sound – klare Empfehlung!
Ich habe mir die Nothing Ear (3) gekauft und bin wirklich positiv überrascht. Das Design ist ein absoluter Hingucker – die transparenten Elemente wirken hochwertig und heben sich deutlich von anderen Kopfhörern ab. Der Sound ist für In-Ears richtig stark: klare Höhen, satte Bässe und insgesamt ein sehr ausgewogenes Klangbild. Auch die aktive Geräuschunterdrückung funktioniert zuverlässig, vor allem in Bus und Bahn merkt man den Unterschied deutlich. Der Tragekomfort ist ebenfalls super – selbst nach längerer Nutzung drücken sie nicht. Die Akkulaufzeit ist völlig ausreichend für den Alltag und das schnelle Aufladen ist ein großes Plus. Ein weiteres Highlight ist die einfache Verbindung mit dem Smartphone sowie die stabile Bluetooth-Verbindung ohne Aussetzer. Fazit: Für den Preis bekommt man hier ein rundes Gesamtpaket aus Design, Sound und Funktion. Würde ich jederzeit wieder kaufen!

Des écouterus qui me ravissent 😊
Cela faisait un moment que j'utilisais des écouteurs premier prix car je ne voyais pas l’intérêt et je n'ai pas un usage intensif (je les utilise surtout pour m'endormir). Mais après avoir acheté plusieurs paires qui ont fait 6 mois j'ai voulu monter un peu en gamme. Les écouteurs arrivent dans leur boîtier de recharge. Alors oui ce n'est clairement pas ce que j'ai vu de plus petit. Le boîtier est plat et le rangement se fait "écouteur couché" quand d'autres marques proposent un rangement à la verticale qui prend moins de place. Ceci étant, les écouteurs, comme le boîtier ont un look ultra cool bien signé Nothing. Côté son c'est vraiment excellent ! Le son est vraiment bien équilibré, on a accès a un égaliseur très complet et on peut retoucher manuellement tout le spectre de fréquence. Il y a un mode spatial qui est vraiment immersif surtout dans les jeux. D'autre part, le mode d'annulation de bruit est vraiment bon et je dois admettre que le mode transparence offre un vrai plus pour l'utilisation en ville. C'est bien plus sécurisant que le mode normal on a le sentiment que le son est joué dans l'environnement. Côté son les micros des écouteurs est irréprochable lors des appels et les micros supplémentaires incorporés au boîtier permet d'avoir une conversation dans un environnement sonore très très bruyant et c'est vraiment efficace. Pour l'usage "coucher" j'ai noté un confort incomparable avec mes anciens écouteurs. On peut être en appui sur une oreille sans que se soit inconfortable. Les commandes tactiles par pincement sont d'autant plus excellentes pour ça (je coupais la diffusions avant par frottement sur l'oreiller, cela n'arrive plus). Pour finir, toutes les touches sont personnalisables et on peut en affecter certaines à l'écouteur droit comme à l'écouteur comme (qui sont différentes). J'ai ADORE la possibilité de déclencher Chat GPT ou Alexa directement depuis l'écouteur et la recharge sans fil (partage de batterie avec le téléphone Nothing) est tout bonnement excellent ! Pour finir, l'autonomie est vraiment bonne. J'ai environ 8h d'autonomie (qui réduit significativement avec l'activation du mode ANC) et le boîtier offre environ 4 à 5 cycles de recharge. Bref, je suis ravi de ces écouteurs qui m'accompagnent maintenant partout 😊

Above and beyond
Bought them to try out, ended up using them as my primary drivers. The battery is the only thing that's a downgrade from the larger buds I used previously (JBL TOUR 2). Everything else is a clear upgrade: - sound quality - awesome - noise cancellation - excellent (better than AirPods Pro, worse than the over-ear Bose QC 35) - style - (subjective) I like it - microphone - fine (the built into the case one is a nice feature even though I haven't really found a clear use case for it yet) - charging - fast - bud size - ideal - controls - great: I like how it's a "pinch", not a "touch" control - companion app - no idea, never use apps - case size - smaller than JBL TOUR 2, still larger than AirPods Pro (which seems to be by far the best size of all) - value - average: it really depends on the budget, I consider 180 quid a decent price for a quality thinger - connectivity - can't complain, no additional value really A small hack (in the photo): the case also doubles as a phone stand. Unsure it's intentional, but works solid for my phone.
