The DEFINITIVE REVIEW of the Nothing Ear (2024), Ear (a), and Ear (2) Compared by an AUDIO ENGINEER

Рет қаралды 66,145

Күн бұрын

The New Nothing Ear (2024) and Nothing Ear (a) are the latest wireless Bluetooth Earbuds from Nothing, but how do they compare, and is it worth the upgrade from the Nothing Ear (2)? In this review, I compare their performance in audio quality, ANC, Transparency, Mic, Call Quality, and more from an audio engineer's perspective.

@CodyDavisGuitar Ай бұрын

Fantastic review! I am mainly a Pixel Buds Pro user but I tried the Nothing Ear (2) last summer and was pleasantly surprised at how great the sound quality was. Really impressive. Ultimately, I ended up returning them because they felt uncomfortable with my ear shape for more than half an hour (not sure if Nothing Ear (2024) or (a) will be different fitting). Plus, I value battery life and intuitiveness/ease-of-use like swipe gestures much more than sound quality in my wireless buds so the Pixel Buds Pro check those boxes for me. When I need quality audio, I'm going to my IEMs or studio monitors since I'm a musician. But yeah, TOP NOTCH review dude! Very thorough and high quality.

@ThisIsTechToday Ай бұрын

Oh, yeah, they'd be a huge upgrade for sound. You should see my review on the Pixel Buds Pro to see how I really feel about them, lmao....yeah, I don't think the fit will be better for you and the PBP do have those nice ecosystem stuff going on. I just can't use them for sound as they truly hurt for me to listen to.

This video sounds great on my Earfun Air Pro 3's. Surprisingly to me, my codecs changed in developer options. Having APTx, Qualcomm Chip, LDAC, etc. My S24 Ultra doesn't allow me to change these settings until I connect a pair of buds that offer these codecs. My Nothing Stem came apart & you cannot glue it back without messing it up, tape works & the bud still works but it doesn't last long, 4hrs maybe w/o ANC on.

Thank your for the review! Listening on my ear(2). I'll admit I mostly skipped around to the music tests and liked the ear (2) for most of them but the accoustic song. Your explanation of the paper sound is spot on! Thats what was annoying me! I noticed that i dont really like listening to spoken word aside from deep voices on my ear (2). I also learned that i will never use these for recordings again haha. Will listen again with my beyerdynamics later.

Alright, opinions still stands. Though I think I like the first funk song on the ears the best. I feel like there is a trade off with the (to me) better clarity on instruments and papery sound with words which are more like the spoken word.

I can replicate the issue over and over. If I use the "headset" mode, it works, but sounds like a phone call, horrible for music. When I switch to earphone mode, it totally craps out my spotify app 😆 - Spotify on my phone works just fine of course. -- very fun -- love them for my phone connection though

My Nothin Ear 2024 arrived today. I am coming from Airpods Pro 2 and I must say, these are AMAZING. I had previously tried the Nothing Ear 2 because everyone on youtube recommended them at the time and apparently they were tuned by a very popular audio youtuber and when I got them I was very disappointed. I thought they sounded awful and the sound was way too bright with no bass (at the time I had the normal Airpods 2nd gen, which were quite punchy). The Nothing Ear 2024 solved all the problems I had with the Ear 2s and the sound is better and more customizable than Airpods pro 2. Oh, and it works much better on Android and Windows.

@ihejiblessing7684 Ай бұрын

Sub bass is preference. You can easily add that with the bass enhance feature. Trying to get fine tuning on the Ear (a) is a lot harder, so what you're explaining will be harder than on the Ear.

To me, the Ear(a) sounds a bit muffled in the vocals compared to the Ear and also seems to lack some clarity. However, you mentioned it has a brighter and more energetic high-end. Are these both possible?

@ThisIsTechToday 9 күн бұрын

Yes! There can be an overall shelf boost that makes it clearer or open. The ear A has a boost in a particular frequency range WITHIN the high frequencies that is a more energetic sound.

the Nothing ear A are the overall best at the Sound Quality i think, ive used my Customied Seeaudio Rinko ( 1 Nano Planar + 1 DD) with an Custome tune that comes near to the Sennheiser HE 90 Orpheus, and the Ear A looks like they have the best Potential for an Custome Tune.

How would you put the nothing ear (a) vs the OnePlus buds 3? Which is a better buy. Which ones fit better in the ear?

@ThisIsTechToday Ай бұрын

OnePlus Buds 3 isn't on my list of earbuds that I'd use more than for the review. It's not that it's bad, but there are way better out there now.

@ickna2002 Ай бұрын

@@ThisIsTechToday thanks for the reply. I have seen a lot of people saying the OnePlus buds 3 was the best earbuds for the $100 range but a lot of those were before the Nothing (a) came out. And I trust your opinion more lol

@Beriatan Ай бұрын

Oh gosh, I feel that ear 2 has a lot more "tidy" sound signature. I love bass, sure, but the nothing ear will need some EQ readjustment to justify the purchase.

@DavidVOLTA Ай бұрын

Had Ear (2) sold and buy Ear (not 3) the main difference is punchier, snappier bass response and overall more dynamic range. Ear (2) sound good at given price but Ear (not 3) are much more enjoyable specially for rock music.

Y do i feel like "Ear 2" just seems to have an overall better sound when it comes to clarity rather than the latest "Ear"? Is it just me or others feel the same too?

@ThisIsTechToday Ай бұрын

Because it has more of the high end, but in your actual ear, it might be a bit too harsh or not. It also is thinner so it seems clearer but it may not be as full since it doesn’t have as much bass. It’s a nuanced thing.

does the papery/plasticky sound that exist in the nothing ear (2) still there in the nothing ear (a). You talked about how the papery sound is gone in the ear but didn't mention it in the nothing ear (a)
