 "Nothing Ear (1) in Black and Nothing Ear (2) in White")
The Ear (2) wireless earbuds from UK-based consumer technology start-up Nothing are now available for purchase in India. Launched recently at Rs 9,999, the Nothing Ear (2) wireless earbuds are available online on Flipkart and Myntra and offline at select retail stores.
Successor to the Nothing Ear (1), the second-generation model brings support for Hi-Res audio over LHDC 5.0 codec. Besides, the wireless earbuds bring personalised experience through customisable sound profile – through Nothing X app.
Nothing Ear (2): Specifications and features
The Ear (2) features a custom 11.6mm audio driver in a new dual-chamber design, which is said to enhance the overall sound quality. The wireless earbuds support dual-connection for simultaneous connectivity with two supported devices. Nothing said the earbuds get improved wind-proof and crowd-proof ‘Clear Voice Technology’ and personalised Active Noise Cancellation.
Personal Sound Profile is one of the new features that the Ear (2) gets as its upgrade. According to the company, the Ear (2) allows users to create a Personal Sound Profile with their hearing ID – after taking a hearing test in the Nothing X app. This allows the earbuds to adjust the equaliser and sound profile in real-time to match the user's hearing for an optimal listening experience.
