Nothing has not officially announced the Ear (3a) yet, but some early details are already coming to light.

Last year, Nothing introduced the Ear (3) as its flagship pair of wireless earbuds. Now, the London-based company appears to be working on a more budget-friendly version, the Nothing Ear (3a).

This isn’t entirely surprising. Nothing did something similar back in 2024 when it launched the Ear (a) as a cheaper alternative alongside the Ear (3), skipping what many expected to be an “Ear (2a).”

So far, the only confirmed trace of the product comes from an Indonesian regulatory database. The earbuds were listed under model number B190 alongside the CMF Buds Neo. However, the filing does not reveal any specifications, pricing, or a launch window.

According to a report by Dealabs, the Ear (3a) is expected to launch in four colors: white, black, yellow, and pink. Three of these are the same as the Ear (a). Pink is the only new addition.

Price may hold steady at €99 in France

The same source suggests a launch price of €99 in France. That’s the same price the Ear (a) launched at in 2024. The Ear (a) has since dropped to €89, so the Ear (3a) would come in slightly above it at launch.

No technical details or release date have been confirmed. It remains to be seen whether the Ear (3a) will include features missing from the Ear (a), such as wireless charging or improved noise cancellation, both of which are available on Nothing’s higher-end models.
