In 2021, Nothing, a tech startup, released its first product called the Nothing Ear (1), which gained popularity for its unique transparent design and inclusion of ANC. The brand is now preparing to launch its successor, the Nothing Ear (2), with a scheduled launch date of March 22. Despite this, promotional material and specifications for the earbuds have already surfaced online.

The leak comes from Tech Outlook citing tipster OnLeaks as the source. The report reveals the design of the Nothing Ear (2) will be quite similar to its predecessor. The earbuds will continue to sport a semi-transparent design for the earbuds and the charging case.

Featuring a stem design and silicone ear tips for improved grip and passive noise cancellation, the earbuds showcase their internal components and battery cells through a transparent section. A microphone cutout can be observed on both sides of the earbud, and the Nothing Ear (2) branding is imprinted on the stem. The charging case also boasts a semi-transparent design, with a transparent lid and a white covering that conceals its internal components.

As per the aforementioned report, the upcoming Nothing TWS earbuds will retain the 11.6mm drivers seen in the first-generation model. Each earbud will offer a claimed playback time of up to six hours with a single charge, while the charging case is expected to provide up to 36 hours of battery life. The charging case will also support fast charging and Qi wireless charging.

The Ear (2) is said to come equipped with some premium features like Hybrid ANC, which will effectively reduce background noise. Weighing at just 4.5 grams each, the Ear (2) will be lighter than its predecessor by 0.2 grams. The earbuds will also come with an IP54 rating for protection against water splashes and sweat.

There are speculations that the Nothing earbuds will allow for connecting two devices at the same time, and might also offer Personalised Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), allowing users to adjust the ANC strength to their preference. Additionally, the Advanced EQ feature will enable users to customize their sound preferences as well.
