The hotly anticipated Nothing ear (1) true wireless earbuds are set to launch at a ‘Sound of Change’ event on Tuesday, July 27.
So far, the ear (1) earbuds remain secret, with only a few peeps about a summer launch window and the fact they will share the same “distinct, transparent finish” as the Nothing Concept 1.
While the delay to the June launch had us disappointed, the postponement didn’t last too long. Check out what the OnePlus founder’s new company has been working on below.
How to watch the Nothing ear (1) earbud reveal
You can watch the ‘Sound of Change’ launch event on Tuesday, July 27 at 9am EST / 2pm BST. Details of where to watch it beyond going to nothing.tech have not been announced yet.
In this event, Nothing will reveal the ear (1) — a pair of true wireless earbuds that will “combine raw beauty and precise engineering for a pure sound experience.”
Firsts are always special. Our first product. Our first launch event. The first real chance for us to show the world what Nothing is about. #SoundOfChange arrives on 27 July. https://t.co/0vD6qpGqR9 #ear1 pic.twitter.com/LjSqlzNMTAJune 29, 2021
Nothing ear (1): What we know
Of course, the official launch will be warmly welcomed. But that doesn’t mean we can’t take note of all the news out there already and get a little speculative!
Nothing is the brainchild of OnePlus founder Carl Pei, which was set up with one mission in mind: strip away needless complexities of consumer gadgets and give the people something that seamlessly integrates with their lives. Or, if you want to put it another way, tech that feels like “nothing.” Get it?
We got our first hint of what this meant with the completely transparent Concept 1 earbud, and while we cannot definitively say the ear (1) buds will look like this, Nothing’s own words state they will combine “the raw beauty of technology with a distinctive transparent finish.”
As for availability, Nothing has announced a couple of key retail partnerships, including Selfridges in the UK and Flipkart in India.
Nothing about U.S. availability yet, but stay tuned!
