Nothing’s first pair of open-ear wireless earbuds are getting a nice price cut. For a limited time, the Nothing Ear (Open) are available on Amazon for $99, down from their usual $149. That’s a solid $50 off for anyone curious about the company’s take on open-ear audio.

Launched in September 2024, the Ear (Open) were Nothing’s first attempt at this style of earbuds. Instead of sitting inside your ear, they hook around it using flexible, skin-friendly silicone loops. It’s a secure, comfortable fit meant to stay in place without causing pressure — and the IP54 rating means they’ll survive a sweaty workout or a bit of rain.

Inside, each earbud packs a 14.2mm titanium-coated dynamic driver and two microphones that use AI-powered noise reduction to keep calls clear. They also support Bluetooth 5.3 and dual-pairing, so you can connect them to two devices at once.

Battery life is strong too — up to 8 hours of playback, or 30 hours with the case. If you’re in a rush, a 10-minute quick charge gives around 2 hours of listening. There’s also a low-latency gaming mode that kicks in automatically when paired with a Nothing phone. Speaking of which, Nothing phone users also get a few extra perks, like ChatGPT access right from the earbuds and deeper customization in the Nothing X app (which is also available for iPhone and Android).

At this discounted price, the Ear (Open) is hard to ignore. Interested buyers may want to check it out on Amazon soon, as this is a limited-time deal and stocks might not last long at this price.

Nothing‘s next entrant in the earbud market is indeed open-air earbuds. This has now been confirmed via a report by WinFuture that accompanies a fresh batch of images revealing the design of TWS.

The Nothing Ear (Open), set to be officially unveiled tomorrow — September 24th — are the company’s first open-ear buds. They take a slightly different approach compared to the company’s previous offerings in terms of design.

The leaked images show a design that’s familiar in the open-ear space. A wraparound band presumably fits around the back of the ear, with the speaker itself – rumored to be a sizeable 14.2mm driver – positioned for optimal sound delivery.  This design is similar to what we’ve seen from brands like SoundCore and JBL.

Battery life is also decent, with the leak suggesting the earbuds themselves will offer 8 hours of playback on a single charge. Combined with the charging case, that figure supposedly jumps to 30 hours. 

It’s worth noting that this is a slight downgrade compared to the standard Nothing Ear 2. They can offer up to 36 hours of playback time. 

Being an open-ear earbud, it’s unlikely that the new Nothing TWS will have Active Noise Cancellation or ANC support. It’s because open-ear earbuds sit outside or just partially in the ear canal, leaving the ear canal open. This allows ambient sound to flow in freely.

As for the case of the buds, the images depict a design that’s thin but quite wide. The leak also throws in some additional details. Each earbud is said to weigh a mere 8.1 grams, and both the buds and the case boast an IP54 splash-proof rating. 

An interesting tidbit is the continued support for ChatGPT when paired with a Nothing Phone. Additionally, the leak mentions a “Bass Enhance” mode, which could appeal to bass-heavy music lovers.

The price for the earbuds is still under wraps. But with the launch tomorrow, the wait won’t be long.
