Nothing's newest audio accessory is made for those who want to stay open (pun intended) to what's happening around them. The Nothing Ear (open) features an over-ear design that allows you to listen to audio without blocking external sound out too much.

These buds are built for those who love listening to music but want to stay aware of their surroundings. With an IP54 rating for the buds and case, the Nothing Ear (open) are ready for outdoor adventures, whether you use it for your outdoor workouts or daily commutes.

These white earbuds loop over your ear to keep them in place. But at 8.1g per earbud, it'll offer a comfortable fit. A Sound Seal System and directional speakers promise minimal sound leakage. There are pinch-to-control functions for volume, play/pause, and calls. Two integrated microphones allow for voice calls without excessive wind noise.

When you aren't using these buds, they fit into the 19mm thin pill-shaped transparent case. It gives you up to 30 hours of use out of these buds, which support up to eight hours of use at a time.

Other unique Nothing features include ChatGPT voice support and access to the Nothing X app to customize EQ on the earbuds. They support a Game Mode to reduce lag and can connect two devices simultaneously via Bluetooth.

The Nothing Ear (open) is now available for pre-order in Canada for $199. They are expected to ship starting October 2.
