There are far better half-ear designed TWS than this one.

I got them from his and MKBHD's recommendation and I really regretted it. Sound quality was trash compared to my pixel buds and my galaxy buds 2, the noise cancelling switched between two ANC profiles when on the bus making it super jarring and uncomfortable, and the countless "game-breaking" bugs I encountered over the 5 months I owned them made it so I will never buy a Nothing product again. They weren't worth $100 (because they never worked) and they certainly are not worth $150

@@NavicNick Exactly my experience. I have no idea how all these tech reviewers used to praise those things so good. In my case, they where nothing like the reviews at all. Sure, they looked very good and they sounded allright, but that's where the positives ended for me. The music often just stopped for a few seconds every minute or so (especially when I was in open area's or riding my scooter, then it happend way more frequently). Sometimes only one bud worked, so I had to reset them. The ANC was a mess, it kept switching between the two modes exactly as you told, that was really, really annoying. And worst of all, I had it happen to me tree times that after I put them back in the case, the caselight kept showing the green LED, and I was not able to do anything. I wasn't able to Reconnect them, reset them, it was like they where bricked. I had to wait two days before they went back to normal. I was so done with these things that I sold them after two months. Never have I ever bought a piece of electronics that where this frustrating and buggy. I'm gonna avoid anything from Nothing from now on. Bought the Galaxy Buds 2, and had absolutely no issues with them

I'm really liking the new shortcurcuit set!

Got these for 40 bucks on a sale and I love them

I liked the subtle nod to Henry cavils role where there is the sound of a cocking gun when he lifts his arms at 3:37, well done editors

That gun load sound. Ooft, nice work team.

i noticed a clever point of the case. the orange accent on the case lines up with the right earbud spot. its an odd thing that wont be noticed as a feature but its a clever little thing

I took my glasses off and looked up and it was all blurry (12:05) and my heart sank, I thought to myself, omg I've gone really blind... then your camera focused and I breathed a sigh of relief :D

I've never had Bluetooth issues like loosing my connection, etc. I do wish I could get further away from my phone before I start loosing connection but for $99 I don't really care.

Careful on dropping those. My Nothing ear(1)'s broke a bit of the plastic shell around the charging contacts and now they don't always charge (because they make no contact with the case) and support says "though luck, no support except for warranty". Now every time I take them out of the case the left one is a mystery it it's 100% charged or 0% charged.

They're not direct versions, either. I've used the Ear Stick for three weeks, and they're a totally different experience. You can compare them to the first set of buds, but I don't they're worth thinking about as straight up "versions" (like you could for say, Soundcore Liberty Air Pro, Air Pro 2, Air Pro 3, etc etc).

"Are those Nothing earphones or are you just happy to see me?"

This and the raycons get advertised so much that everytime I see their ads I rage 😂

I like these more than the Nothing Ear One - I am having a bit of an anti-sealed earbuds phase ever since I had an ear blockage...

Ppl talk of inflation but imo Nothing's strat has been pretty obvious since the price hike. They always meant for these to be the entry level earbuds and the ear (1) to be their "pro" version. They sold the ear (1) at a lower margin, and now that the ear (stick) is out they raise the ear (1) to the price tier it was meant to be.

Damn this was going to be an instant buy for me until you said no ANC :( My ears get extremely irritated by the in canal earphones.

Have you tried over ears? Sure, they're not as portable as TWS, but they'll easily be the most comfortable out of them all, and the ANC will also be unbeatable by any IEM's or earbuds. Sony WH-1000XM4 or XM5 might be worth a try.

Can we get a 5min cut of James making various sound effects?

I'm just saying, the Sony WF-1000XM3's can be had for as low as 60$ depending on where you're at, and they'll rival even the new AirPods. Not to mention, they're one of the easiest TWS headphones to replace the batteries - you can order a pair of new ones for the earbuds for 20$, and be listening to music for longer again within 30 minutes following the ifixit guide.

6:11 that animation weirdly felt like the OnePlus boot screen animation.

As someone who doesn't want ANC, the awful carrying case stops me from considering them. The case design is a cool novelty, but pocketability matters. Personally I don't leave earbuds in constantly so having the case accessible is important.

Someone needs to give this man a new phone.

Im one of those that simply dont like that stuffed feeling of in ear models that gives that plugged feeling and Im vacuming the market for these semi in ear / half in ear types, and trying to find the ones, that is as good as it can get from that design aspect that useally take a big hit to bass. Had some B&O soem years back, as they are here from Denmark and on sale, and generally like their clean soundstage, but dang those E8 did not fit well with my ears and definately did not like that stuffed feeling of siclicone or memory type earbud types. . Have a pair of Apple Pro 2 in the household.. and I was impressed how comfortable they are for stuffed plugged type, but still would prefer those half in ear types. so been purchasinga few of those like Edifier W220T with all that snapdragon loseless sound and the full AtpX dynamic adaptive codec and yeah..a big hit to the bass.. they were around 40 bucks with incl. 25% VAT. EU. also purchased the Soundpeats Air3 HS deluxe (38USD), and atm looking at these Nothing Ear and the Xiaomi buds 4 that both are significantly more expensive.. but thats my incentive get the best decent half in ear types atm.. that take the leats hit to the soundquality from that variant..as I aitn that fund of that plugged feeling with the silicone type.
