Nothing's first over-ear model, the Headphone (1), is now priced at $219, down from its $299 launch price. The new offer puts the headphones at an $80 discount and makes them a more accessible entry into Nothing's design-driven audio lineup.
Beyond the price cut, the model stands out with a transparent aesthetic, geometric accents, and a feature set aimed at everyday listening. It includes 40mm drivers, hybrid ANC, IP52 protection, USB-C and 3.5mm connectivity, plus LDAC support for high-resolution audio. The companion app also adds EQ customization, giving users both simple and advanced sound controls.
Nothing's tactile control system is another defining detail. Instead of relying on touch surfaces, the headphones use a scroll wheel called the Roller, a Paddle for track control, and a programmable button for switching between sound modes or EQ presets. The result is a more physical, intuitive interaction style that fits the brand's experimental approach.
Battery life is equally notable, reaching up to 35 hours with noise canceling enabled and up to 80 hours with ANC off. Spatial audio and multipoint Bluetooth support further expand its appeal across Android and iOS devices. For listeners who value design, customization, and long runtime, this discount makes the model especially compelling. In the broader audio market, products like this may help shape a more expressive and user-centered future for personal sound.
