"Earbuds work best when you forget that they exist, even as they are in your ears or wrapped around your head. In actuality, a good earbud is a conduit for something else, like a good workout with bone conduction headphones or a locked-in eight hours of uninterrupted work at your chatter-filled desk job with noise-canceling earbuds. So when I was sent the earbuds, the latest from one of my favorite design-forward tech companies,"
"This is Nothing's first pair of open-ear headphones, which are designed less for noise cancellation and quiet listening and more for situational awareness and people on the go. If you don't like how noise-canceling earbuds build up pressure within your ear and take you out of your environment, open earbuds may be a better choice. First and foremost, open earbuds are great for exercise, but the best open earbuds work in many situations if they have loud enough sound and a comfortable build."
Nothing's Ear Open earbuds use an open-ear design to prioritize situational awareness over noise cancellation. The earbuds suit exercise and outdoor wear by leaving the ear open while delivering loud enough sound for many situations. A flexible, lightweight ear hook wrapped in sticky silicone creates an unnoticeable, comfortable hang-from-ear fit suitable for all-day wear and runs. The speaker sits above the ear without fully covering it, allowing ambient sounds to pass through. The earbuds deliver performance that exceeds their price, and they were available for under $100 during Cyber Week.
