The Nothing Ear (2) eclipse their predecessor, adding high-res audio support and performance to rival the best buds in their price bracket

Engaging, high-resolution sound; Unique, eye-catching design; Lots of features and customisation options;

Battery life with ANC could be better; LHDC 5.0 support is limited;

Energetic audio with hi-res codec support ; Streamlined software adds lots of customisation; Smaller case made from higher quality materials;

We liked the original Nothing Ear (1) earbuds, which offered above-average active noise cancellation (ANC) and a sleek, see-through design for $99. The Nothing Ear (2) earbuds deliver upgrades across the board including enhanced Bluetooth codec support (LHDC 5.0), an improved app, better water resistance, superior mic performance, and more effective ANC. Those upgrades don't come cheap, though, as the price is now up to $149. If you don't mind the $50 premium, the Nothing Ear (2) earbuds certainly won't disappoint in the sound or style departments, though if you're looking to spend less, Anker's Soundcore Space A40 earphones offer similar performance in a much less striking design for $99.99.Undeniably Stylish The Ear (2) earbuds retain the transparent, stem-style design of their predecessors and ship with three pairs of silicone eartips in different sizes. They fit snugly and feel secure at a wide range of angles. The fit variability is convenient for audio playback (the earphone...

Below-average battery life; Case seems prone to scratches

There’s nothing quite like Nothing’s designs. Whether it’s the brand new Ear 2 earbuds or the Nothing Phone 1, the still-young company has established a unique, recognizable style all of its own. Design is an important part of any product, and for the Ear 2, Nothing has made them even more personal, going all-out to get the sound and performance just right for you. We liked the Nothing Ear 1, and have now put the Ear 2 earbuds through their paces. This is what they’re like. Nothing hasn’t deviated far from the design of the Ear 1 for the Ear 2, and that’s fine because the transparent, minimalist look is a real winner. Instead, it has refined and tweaked the case with squared-off edges and a slightly smaller footprint, and made the finger shape concave indentation on top of the case smaller and shallower. The underside is more sculpted, and Nothing says the IP55-rated case has been given extra scratch protection too. The Ear 1’s clear case did suffer from scuffs over time, so this extra...

Cool minimalist design; Active Noise Cancellation; Wireless charging; Personalization features work well;

Battery life falls behind the competition; Harsh at high volume;

The Nothing Ear (2) true wireless earbuds are packed with features, extremely comfortable to wear all day and have a distinctive design. Active noise cancellation (ANC) is good, sound quality is fine for everyday listening, but battery life is mediocre. They may not be perfect, but these buds are enjoyable to listen to, for half the price of some premium rivals.

Lightweight and super comfortable; Distinctive design; Good for everyday listening

Below average battery life; Divisive design; Slight issues with vocals
