Nothing Ear Vs Nothing Ear (a) Review | Super-Budget Buds!

Reviewing the Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear (a), two fresh 2024 pairs of budget true wireless earbuds costing just £129 and £99 respectively. Boasting ANC, triple mics and upgraded battery life, the Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear (a) are among the best TWS for a price under £150. But which is my favourite?

Well, for just £30 more, you get a water-resistant, wireless charging case, improved codec support and audio personalisation. It's the last feature that makes me highly recommend the Nothing Ear over that more budget A model of buds. With that enabled, the sound was richer and more detailed and a lot more enjoyable.

You've got effective active noise cancellation, with an adaptive option if you fancy it. Battery life was one of the weaknesses of the old Nothing Ear 2, but that's also been improved here for both models. In fact, the Nothing Ear A can survive for even longer than the regular True Wireless Earbuds.

So that's the Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear (a) in a nutshell! Let us know your thoughts on these 2024 TWS below.

Hello my grand son is a Canadian student at Sunderland U and works part time at the Sunderland FC stadium, I’m in Toronto and often watch your videos….keep up the good work mate.

[sir_mushy]

you earned a sub for this, love how you managed to review both and compare bu I still left felling like I watched 2 videos

Waiting for Nothing Eyes, Nothing Nose, Nothing Mouth and Nothing....

Call me old fashion, but £129, and £99 are far from what I'd call 'super-budget' earphones. Not unless the word budget comes with a long list of warnings, like an advert for pain medication.

Kudos to be the first review on my timeline!

Great video Unc!! I just purchased, (April;2025) the Nothing Ear they were on sale, and i thought better buy b4 the tariffs rip us to bits! these are the first hi-end i ever owned, been buying cheap wired ones, and i always lost them or my cat destroys them. I'll try to treat these like gold! I can brag i got NOTHING :)

[areneiii]

Finally, been waiting for this since their live. Still, my pocket got nothing 🥴😂

[hatimhafidz]

Which one’s better?
Nothing ear 2 vs nothing ear (a)

[rosaria]

I can tell the three noise control modee work as intended. I work at an office and transparency mode really allows for background noise. No regrets purchasing the yellow (A)

[Tyler_ThaTruth]

I already have air pods pro 2 but man I love the design of these

[SneezingEagle]

Nicely done Spurt! Will be upgrading to the nothing ear!

[jaideepwadali]

Wenever i get notification from ue channel i instantly knew something fresh & amazing coming, been using ear 2 & they are grt, so wats ur views on ear a shud i go for it or not

[andrewjohnclose]

Hey Uncle Spurt, would you consider doing a review of the best earbuds for 2023/2024? Kinda in the same way as you have reviewed Best Camera Phones… thank you 🙏🏻

[teodorkristensen]

Does either of them have the "ear pressure release" thing?

[PaulPlay]

7:54 "Audiophiles won't be impressed" Nothing buds are one of the go-tos for audiophiles since the 2s. DMS, who has helped with tuning, said the a is very similar to the Ear with slightly sparklier treble (according to the fr graph). It's interesting how real audiophiles go for galaxy buds or nothing ear, though most reviewers say the xm5's are best (which they defo aren't imo)

[chrispysaid]

what an unfortunate combination of product name and accent

[marcelontech]

Cheers mate. Got the Ear a on pre order. Love the yellow colour

[Sele.Lebotsa]

The nothing ear( a )are about the same price as the galaxy buds fe would like to see comparison between the two
