Ear (2024)

The nothing ear has absolutely terrible ANC. As a bonus, it amplifies high frequencies such as cutlery and keys clattering, and for some reasons also amplifies cars passing by. All of this in high mode. On a busy street, you're probably better off turning of ANC and just relying in the passive isolation. Transparency mode is also worse than talking with them on with ANC off. Also of it's windy where you live you might as well turn ANC off as it has zero wind detection. Everything else from app to controls iäand sound quality is excellent though. Weirdest past is, cmf buds pro 2/plus both have vastly improved ANC.

I got the Nothing ear (2024). Probably the best I've ever owned

I've tested the Nothing ear and I wasn't this impressed with the sound like you were. I have the AZ100s and honestly, it is the best sounding earbuds I've ever had. I prefer to listen to music on the Technics over my Sony WH1000XM6 headphones, especially pumping LDAC to max Bitrate listening to HiFi sound on Qobuz. I change the EQ on Technics app depending on the type of music and I really enjoy it, and I love the voice clarity for calls on noisy environments, top notch.

Maybe try the Nothing Ear 2024. They really suprised me at their price point, Amazon $115. Comfortable, good ANC, good call quality, decent sound.

I came here to recommend nothing eat too, it’s way too good for its price point

I'm juggling a few at the moment. I use the Technics AZ100's for gaming on my PC. I use the Apple AirPods Pro 3's for traveling. And for working out, I use the Nothing Ear (2024). Sound quality is best on the AZ100's. ANC is best on the AirPods Pro 3's. The Nothing Ear (2024) is probably the best fitting earbuds I've ever used aside from the Audio Technica ATH-TWX9's.

Also, Ive recently purchased soundpeats capsule 3pro, earfun air pro 4, nothing ear 2025, and denon perl pros. I returned all of them except the perl pros. the auto eq is amazing. These edge out my lib3pros, plus im having charging issues with the lib3pros. The denon perl pros put a smile on my face.. Fantastic earbuds.

I just tried soundpeats, nothing ear, earfun and denon. Kept the Perl Pros and returned the others. super frustrated with soundpeats app - it crashed everytime i tried to open it. Nothing ear added some artifacts that were like garbled/warbling versions of the music that eere only noticeable in quiet sections of a song. Annoying. Earfun were ok, just not great. Denon perl pros are fantastic and the app is impressive. Ive tried the azh80s, xm5, oneplus, senn momentum 4, jabra elite 75active, and others last year and found my old soundcore liberty 3s were as good. the libs have been giving me charging issues, so I am replacing them with the Perl Pros.

Now youre saying that, it makes sense why my hear id always try tp reduce treble. But my personal preference is still a sparkly treble. (Hence the love of L3P and AZ80) i just find the treble on these soundpeats not as refined. It makes sense at the price point. I put Earfun Air pro 4 (better soundstage) and Nothing Ear 2024 (almost as good as L3P) a little above this. Liberty 4 pro is released yesterday and now im curious about those.

Liberty 3 pro. Nothing ear 24. Refurbished 3anc

Same here, I bought these ones and the Nothing Ear (2024), each for 89€. While I preferred the amazing ANC on the OnePlus Buds, I ended up returning them because they felt uncomfortable in my ear canal after 1 hour of wearing them or so. I bought AZLA Max eartips and they kinda solved the problem, but they don't fit in the case. The TWS eartips did fit, but I couldn't test them enough before the end of my return window and I still felt some discomfort. I can wear the Nothing Ear's with the AZLA eartips for hours without discomfort, and since the app and EQ is much better, I got the sound I enjoy with them too.

I had Nothing Ear 2024 and loved them but they suddenly died... according to Reddit many ppl had the same problem. So, I would not recommend to buy them. Now thinking about AZ100, but the price difference if huge=(
