Nothing is gearing up to announce the successor to its first product, the Ear (1), later this month. But ahead of the Ear (2)‘s official launch, the company’s CEO has confirmed some of its features. So let’s have a look.
The company’s CEO Carl Pei revealed certain features of the upcoming Ear (2) truly wireless earbuds in an interview earlier this week. Here, he claimed that the next gen hearables will seek to offer a more premium experience. Furthermore, he confirmed two of the features that the Ear (2) will ship with. One of them is the Ip54 water and dust resistance, which is a welcomed upgrade over the Ear (1) that only came with IPX4 rating. Meanwhile, the Ear (Stick) also offers IP54 protection.
Apart from this, the executive also added that the new Nothing Ear (2) model will also support LHDC 5.0 audio codec. This means that it will feature hi-res audio streaming, which is again an upgrade over the AAC audio codec support on the company’s existing 2 earbuds. Unfortunately, this was all the information shared by the brand’s CEO in the interview. Although, previous reports have hinted at some of their other specifications.
Based on what we know so far, the Ear (2) will house an 11.6mm audio drivers similar to its predecessor and retain its transparent design as well. The earbuds will likely still support wireless charging and offer up to 36 hours of battery life with 6 hours from the earbuds alone when ANC is turned off. The company will launch the Ear (2) on March 21, so stick around for more as we will be covering the launch event.
