"All in all - they are really good sounding **ESPECIALLY** for the price tag. ... Really amazing what they managed to cram into such a low price tag - huge props. ... For 99% of the people this are the freaking best buy for under $100 USD. Don't even think about it, they really are THAT good and hard to beat."
"extremely cheap (was around 70 bucks) for that quality and amount of features!"
"For 100$, these are a a really good choice ... They sound good enough and have a very likeable tuning that sounds quite musical."

"Sound is amazing - Compared to my latest buds, the Linkbuds S, it's way more Bass and overall way more quality of the music. More Soul, more feelings, better in every way. Not so mechanic like the Linkbuds."
"Nothing Ear and Ear (a) have an absolutely incredible bass slider. ... I'll leave mine at level 2 and occasionally do the full 5, it's wonderful, it still sounds crystal clear no matter where you put it."

"I bought these for running and they are comfortable and they ’ll stay in. ... I find them more comfortable and they stay in as good as the AirPods Pro."
"it never falls out of my ear despite being wireless"
"I do 4km runs with it and never experienced it falling off. ... Really good fit, I also do shopping sometimes with one of the earbuds on."

"For battery, I've been using them for like 45-60 minutes a day during my workout sessions, and they genuinely lasted me a good 10 days before I had to juice up the case."
"Honestly, I get around 5.5-6 hours with ANC (on High if that makes any difference) which is actually better than my AirPods Pro."
"The battery is good, I only have to charge the case every couple of weeks."

"The app lets you connect to two devices at once for seemless swirching and so far definitely works better than the airpods. ... I have iphone, ipad, macbook, and apple watch, plus use PC at home and work and no issues with any of my devices."
"Connectivity is great, they pair instantly, work across devices ... Bluetooth range is incredible, doesn't matter where I go to in my house, the connection doesn't drop"
"use them everyday on my phone, and just connect to the Legion when needed"

"Noise cancellation in the Nothing Ear isn't amazing. It works but it could be a LOT better. If my Sony 1000XM4 is 10/10, then Apple would be like 7.5/10 and the Nothing would be like 5/10 for noise cancellation."
"The only downside I have noticed so far is that the “noise cancelling” is more like noise avoidance, it’s average at best. ... Yeah, wish the NC was better but I’m still enjoying them over all."
"It does not cut out conversation so much which is weird. ... Sometimes I think I'm on transparency (which is abysmal), and have a conversation in the office, only to try and toggle ANC on and it turns out I was on ANC all the time."

"The trebles (especially the hi hats in hip-hop) are not only way too pronounced, but also sound super sandy. They literally hurt my ears."
"For metal you want an emphasized (but not piercing) high-end, these have a very tame high-end so it won‘t be fatiguing but also not the most exciting listening experience, so overall I‘d say no. ... The nothings are really tuned for Pop and Rap imo"
"I am also not loving the EQ - I know that the more premium 'advanced' EQ is reserved for the more premium headphones, but the option to adjust only either bass, mids or trebbles is way too simplistic. I guess I will have to resort to third party apps, which sucks."

"Really bad, it's the same as if you had everything on off. ... Feels like it doesn't do anything really. ... this is next level."
"The ANC is solid, but the transparency mode? Not so much. ... Tried to swap them for my AirPods but still in love with Apple ’s transparency."

"trying to open the case is an insanely hard and precise task. ... sometimes I struggle to open it with two hands. ... There is nothing (hah) to grip onto, it's slippery and doesn't have an indent which would make it easy to open."
