Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear A Full Specifications and Features
At the heart of both the Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear A are 11mm dynamic drivers. The premium Ear model uses ceramic diaphragms for its drivers, which are typically associated with a crisper, more detailed sound signature. The Ear A, positioned as the value option, uses PMI + TPU diaphragm material instead.
Both earphones deliver up to 45dB ANC alongside a transparency mode that lets environmental sounds in when needed. Multi-point connectivity allows pairing with two devices simultaneously, which is ideal for users who switch between a phone and a laptop. They also feature in-ear detection and support both Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair for quick device pairing.
Controls, App Support, and Codecs
Both models come equipped with pinch controls for managing playback, volume, and calls. Users can further fine-tune their audio experience through the Nothing X app, which offers sound customisation options for both earphones. On the codec front, the Nothing Ear A supports SBC, AAC, and LDAC, while the Nothing Ear adds LDHC 5.0 to that list for even higher-resolution wireless audio streaming.
Battery Life and IP Ratings
Each earbud houses a 46mAh battery, while the charging case packs a 500mAh battery. The Nothing Ear is rated for up to 40.5 hours of total playback with the case, and the Nothing Ear A edges ahead at up to 42.5 hours in the same conditions.
The Nothing Ear earbuds carry an IP54 rating (dust and splash resistant), and their charging case is rated IP55. The Nothing Ear A earbuds match the IP54 certification, but the case steps down to an IPX2 rating, offering basic drip resistance.
