- Nothing is developing its first pair of over-ear headphones.
- The designers working on the product make comparisons to Sony’s WH-1000XM6 and Apple’s AirPods Max.
- These headphones will launch sometime this summer.
Nothing has a decent amount of experience in making audio products, with releases like the Ear, the Ear Open, and the Ear A. However, these are all earbuds; the London-based company has never made a pair of over-ear headphones. Now, Nothing wants to use its experience to break into the headphone category.
Over on Nothing’s YouTube channel, the company has published a new video revealing that it is working on over-ear headphones. While discussing Sony’s recently launched WH-1000XM6, the designers talk about the design and how they “don’t like a single” over-ear headphone currently on the market. They also mention how expensive premium headphones, like Apple’s AirPods Max ($550), are and how easy it is to mix up the control buttons while the device is on your head.
