With a swanky transparent design, state-of-the-art active noise cancellation, and ChatGPT integration, the Nothing Ear are pretty hard to turn down for wireless earbuds buyers looking to stand out from the AirPods-wearing crowds. That’s especially true at an unprecedented $40 discount from a $159 list price with no special requirements, restrictions, or strings attached.
That’s right, you don’t need to be a Prime member to take advantage of this sweet new Amazon deal available (for a presumably limited time only) on both white and black flavors of the recently released Nothing Ear. These are technically the company’s follow-up effort to last year’s Nothing Ear (2), mind you, but for some reason, they’re missing a digit in their official name.
That might suggest their features and capabilities are nowhere near as advanced as those of Apple’s (aging) AirPods Pro 2 or Samsung’s hot new Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, although as our Nothing Ear review from a couple of months ago proves, that couldn’t be any farther from the truth.
In addition to the aforementioned “Smart ANC” and built-in ChatGPT technologies, the 2024 Nothing Ear also have all sorts of super-premium sound skills going for them like 24-bit Hi-Res Audio, LDAC, LHDC, and a large and powerful 11mm ceramic driver.
Very simply put, those things will make sure your music listening experience is roughly on par with what the best wireless earbuds from brands like Apple, Samsung, Sony, and Bose can offer without breaking the bank right now.
At up to 40 hours or so, the battery life is also pretty much as good as it gets… at least in the sub-$150 segment, and unlike the Galaxy Buds 3 or Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, the retuned and re-released Nothing Ear seem to have no notable quality issues to speak of, a thing that’s made abundantly clear by a stellar 4.5-star average rating score on Amazon.
