Nothing has officially revealed the Headphone (a) for the global market, as it comes in Pink, Yellow, White, and Black, blending Nothing’s signature style with a bold look and offering up to five days of continuous listening on a single charge.
Headphone (a) updates Nothing’s classic design with new vibrant colors, making it feel playful and welcoming. Weighing just 310g and equipped with soft memory foam cushions, it ensures comfort all day long. It also has an IP52 rating, which means it is protected against dust and dirt, plus it can resist some water, making it suitable for workouts and rainy days.
This headphone sets a new standard for battery life, offering up to 5 days (135 hours) of listening time with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) turned off—far surpassing its leading competitor. It’s perfect for the busy daily routine. If you’re in a hurry, a quick 5-minute charge gives you 5 hours of playback, so your music never has to pause.
Headphone (a) is designed for a smooth and easy experience, similar to Headphone (1). The Roller, Paddle, and Button are built into the ear cups, allowing you to adjust the volume, play media, and change noise cancellation modes easily, without the hassle of touch controls.
With the new Channel Hop feature, you can quickly switch between your favorite apps and functions by simply pressing The Button, so you don’t need to reach for your phone. The new Camera Shutter mode turns The Button into a remote control, letting you take hands-free photos or start videos on your smartphone with just one press.
Headphone (a) is designed for clear sound, using certified Hi-Resolution Audio Wireless and the LDAC codec to keep the details of every song. It has a strong 40mm titanium-coated driver that delivers powerful, clean sound just like the artist intended.
To help you enjoy your music without interruptions, Headphone (a) has Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation with three levels (low, mid, high) to reduce outside noise. In Transparency Mode, you can let in some background sound to stay aware of your surroundings. The headphones use dual microphones and AI technology to adjust noise cancellation based on your environment and how the headphones fit. This smart feature also works during calls, using a special 3-mic AI algorithm that has trained on over 28 million noise situations to make sure your voice is clear, even when it’s noisy around you.
With the Nothing X app, users can access a professional 8-band Advanced EQ to fine-tune your sound profile with complete precision. Beyond simple adjustments, you can create and share custom profiles with the Nothing Community. For added depth, a real-time Bass Enhancement algorithm analyses low frequencies to deliver a powerful, punchy response without compromising the clarity of the mid and high tones.
Pricing and Availability
Headphones (a) will be available in black, white, pink, and yellow. In Malaysia, pricing and availability will be announced on 1st April 2026.
