Another True Wireless Stereo (TWS) product enlivens the audio device market in market. It was Nothing in collaboration with Erajaya to bring Nothing Ear (1) to the country.
The Nothing brand comes from a London, England based company founded by Carl Pei. Yes, he is the founder of the smartphone manufacturer OnePlus.
What makes Nothing Ear (1) special, what are its advantages and disadvantages compared to other similar devices? we've been reviewing Nothing Ear (1) in recent weeks.
Design
Speaking of looks, Nothing Ear (1) is so striking with a transparent design, really different from other TWS out there today. Seeing her is like falling in love at first sight.
Not only TWS is transparent, but also the casing. Shaped square box, you can immediately see this device from the outside.
In this casing there is a kind of hollow that is perfectly rounded. I don't know what Nothing meant by making this hollow, but it didn't bother me as a drawback either.
Weighing only 4.7 grams, this TWS is very comfortable and fits snugly in the ear. Even in a state of motion, it is not easy to fall.
Nothing Ear (1) actually has two color choices, black and white, we had the opportunity to try the white variant. Personal view, white color gives the impression of elegance, on the other hand it makes extra so it doesn't get dirty easily.
Oh yes, this Nothing Ear (1) sales package includes a manual, spare rubber sizes S, M, and L, there is also a type C cable.
Connection
Nothing Ear (1) connects via Bluetooth connection with Android 5.1 and above and iOS 11 or later devices. We use Android and iOS based devices without any significant obstacles.
There's actually a dedicated Nothing Ear app. When you have downloaded it, it makes it easier for users to directly connect to this TWS. But in fact, if you don't use the application, you can still connect.
So the plus point is that Nothing Ear (1) has fast pairing that directly meets the needs of users who are hooked on one set.
Nothing Ear (1) is IPX4 certified which makes it splash-proof. It should be noted, splash water, don't let it sink into the water.
In writing, TWS is supported by a 570 mAh battery capacity that can last up to 24 hours if you activate the ANC feature. The endurance will be longer up to 34 hours if you disable alias without ANC.
In fact, Nothing Ear (1) can last up to two weeks with normal use, even since the first time tested since early May, this TWS has only been charged once.
Audio Quality
Nothing Ear (1) is equipped with good features, such as Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) which is able to produce clear sound while reducing noise in the surrounding environment. Of course, this feature is sought after for those who often have online meetings, study from home, or listen to music or movies without interruption.
When we tried this TWS, it made us immediately focus on the sound produced, because no other sound entered the ear.
This tool is equipped with an 11.6 mm driver unit which has the function of channeling bass sound with serenity.
It is not recommended to use it when the user is driving, when it is used for sports or if you are wearing it while traveling, make sure the sound is minimal, given the advantages of the TWS.
Our Opinion
During the use of Nothing Ear (1), this TWS has a good ANC advantage in its class. Bass sounds soft.
On a single full charge to 100%, Nothing Ear (1) lasts up to two weeks of normal use.
If you are a slick person, the white color variant can be an option. If not, then just choose black. But keep in mind, the use of this tool must be used according to the needs and the volume is reasonable.
