Description

Listen to music in peace with the Nothing Headphone (1) Black over-ear headphones. These headphones were made in collaboration with KEF. Thanks to the combination of the design and noise canceling, you can completely close yourself off from your surroundings. This is nice when you travel with public transport as you'll be less bothered by noisy travelers. In the Nothing X app, you can adjust your sound preferences. You can strengthen the bass with the equalizer, for example. This way, you can enjoy a heavier bass. Via multipoint pairing, you can connect multiple devices to the headphones. You can connect it to both your laptop and phone, for example. The headphones last 35 hours on a fully-charged battery. You can charge the headphones in 2 hours and continue listening to your playlist.

Good sound and a cool retro design

Unique design
Powerful sound with strong bass
Good noise canceling
Case is quite big

With their unique design, the Nothing Headphones (1) are a real eye-catcher. These headphones not only look special, but the sound is also very good. I do find the carrying case a bit too big to take with me, though.

Design The headphones have almost square earcups that resemble retro cassette tapes. Whether you like this design is very personal. I personally think the headphones have a cool look. Nothing has also put a lot of thought into the design. For example, the earcups have several buttons. I adjust the volume with a dial, which works nicely and precisely. I tap another button to the side to skip to the next track. I find this more convenient than regular push buttons. On the outside of the right earcup is a button that I assign a custom function via the app. I prefer to turn the noise canceling on and off with this button.

Powerful sound I think the sound of the headphones is very good. The highs or lows are never too overpowering. The sound is balanced in every genre I listen to: with pop music, I hear vocals clearly, with rock music, I enjoy powerful guitars, and with dance music, the bass is very powerful. I like a strong bass, so I adjust the sound profile in the equalizer to one with extra bass. The headphones also have good noise canceling. I listen to music at the office and can't hear my colleagues talking. If there's a very loud sound, I can hear it through the music. I notice this, for example, when the neighbors are drilling at home.

Splashproof I prefer to wear headphones while exercising because they stay in place and I'm less distracted. Most headphones can't handle sweat, so I can't use them for this. The Nothing Headphones (1) have an IP52 rating, which means they can withstand a little moisture. Because of this, I use them at the gym, but the headphones can't withstand a rain shower.

User-friendly app I use the headphones without the app, but I like to connect them to the app for even more features. For example, I turn on spatial audio, a feature that lets me hear the sound all around me. I especially use this when watching a movie or TV show. The app also has an equalizer. I can choose from standard profiles or create my own sound profile.
