The Nothing Ear (3) is now available in Canada, and while I’m still in the review process, I can certainly say that I’m fond of Nothing’s new wireless earbuds.
The Nothing Ear (3) features an upgraded 12mm dynamic driver, with bass response up to 6dB stronger and treble up to 4dB brighter compared to the previous generation. This means that you should be able to experience more detailed and natural-sounding audio with deeper basses and sharper treble. It also has 24-bit Hi Res LDAC Audio.
Strangely, the case also offers a microphone. Nothing calls it the Super Mic, and it focuses on your voice and cuts through noise up to 95dB. The company says this is best for clarity on calls and voicenotes. There’s even a ‘Talk’ button on the case that you can hold for quick calls or double-tap and release for a longer conversation. But if you’re not using the Super Mic, the earbuds themselves sport omnidirectional earbud microphones with a voice pickup unit that can sense the vibration in your jawbone.
The earbuds offer 5.5 hours of listening with ANC, while if you add the case it offers 38 hours of listening. If you charge the case with USB-C, you can get up to 10 hours of playback with 10 minutes of charging.
You’ll need to use the Nothing X app to get your own Personal Sound profile, which I liked on my last pair of Nothing earbuds. Pair the Nothing Ear (3) with the Nothing Phone 3, you can use the Ear (3) to record in the Essential Space, or contact ChatGPT.
The Nothing Ear (3) costs $264.99 in Canada and comes in white and black.
