Nothing Confirms An Official Release Date For New Ear (stick) AirPods Alternatives

True to type, Nothing has simply introduced the total reveal date for its upcoming audio product, Ear (stick).

So, an announcement about an announcement. You have to hand it to Carl Pei’s advertising and marketing division, they by no means miss a trick.

What we’re saying is that though we nonetheless have ‘nothing’ conclusive concerning the options, pricing or launch date for the Ear (stick) besides a picture of one other mannequin holding them (and we have seen loads of these traipsing down the catwalk not too long ago), we do have a date – the day after we’ll be granted official entry to this info.

That day is October 26. Nothing assures us that at present we’ll be capable to discover every part, together with pricing and product specs, throughout the online Ear (stick) Reveal, at 3 PM BST (which is 10 AM ET, or 1 AM on Wednesday for those who’re in Sydney, Australia) on nothing.tech

Any additional info? A bit. Nothing calls the Ear (stick), which is now the product’s official identify, “the following era of Nothing sound know-how”, and its “most superior audio product but”.

However, that is not all! Ear (stick) is “half in-ear true wi-fi earbuds that stability supreme consolation with a distinctive sound, made to not be felt when in use. They’re feather-light with an ergonomic design that’s moulded to your ears. Delivered in a singular charging case, impressed by traditional beauty silhouettes, and compactly fashioned to easily glide into pockets.”

Opinion: I want greater than a lipstick-style case

It is no secret that I would like Nothing’s earbuds to achieve a world dominated by AirPods; who does not love a plucky, eccentric underdog?

However, to change into a number of the greatest true wi-fi earbuds available on the market, there’s room for enhancement over the Nothing Ear 1, the corporate’s inaugural earbuds.

Other than this official ‘information’ from Nothing, leaked photographs and movies of the Ear (stick) have been bobbing up all around the web (thanks, developer Kuba Wojciechowski) they usually depict earbuds that look largely unchanged, which is a disgrace.

For me, the main focus must shift from gimmicks reminiscent of a cylindrical case with a crimson part on the finish which twists up like lipstick. Do not get me incorrect, I like a little bit of theatre, however, provided that the sound coming from the earbuds themselves is prime canine.

Because of the pure companions for the Nothing Telephone 1, it is sensible for the Ear (stick) to take a spot much like that of Apple’s AirPods 3, the place the flagship Ear (1) sits alongside the AirPods Professional 2 as a flagship providing.

See, that lipstick case form seemingly is not going to help wi-fi charging. That and the rumoured lack of ANC means the Ear (stick) might be arriving because of the extra reasonably priced choice in Nothing’s oeuvre.

For now, we sit tight till October 26.
