TL;DR

• Nothing has launched the Headphone A, over‑ear headphones featuring 135 hours of battery life with ANC off.
• The headphones include unique physical controls, an IP52 rating, and 40 mm titanium‑coated drivers with LDAC support.
• They retail for $199 in four colors, with the yellow color available as a limited‑edition release in April.

At its London launch event, Nothing announced the new Headphone A alongside the Nothing Phone 4a and Phone 4a Pro. These over‑ear headphones pair Nothing’s signature design with playful new colors and a remarkable claim of five days of continuous listening on a single charge.

The Nothing Headphone A looks a lot like the Nothing Headphone 1, but now features new pink and yellow colors. There are also “Roller,” “Paddle,” and “Button” controls for volume, media playback, ANC mode switching, and more. In Camera Shutter mode, pressing the “Button” acts as a remote trigger for a smartphone camera.

Weighing just 310 g, the headphones come with breathable memory‑foam cushions for all‑day comfort and an IP52 rating for sweat protection.

Battery life

Nothing claims up to five days (135 hours) of listening time with ANC off on a single charge, outlasting an unnamed “market leader” headphone by half. A five‑minute charge provides five hours of playback, while a full charge takes two hours.

Audio and features

• 40 mm titanium‑coated drivers supporting Hi‑Resolution Audio and the LDAC codec.
• Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation with three presets.
• Nothing X app with an eight‑band EQ, custom profile creation, and community sharing.
• Real‑time Bass Enhancement algorithm for powerful, punchy low‑frequency response without sacrificing mid and high‑tone clarity.
• USB‑C cable and 3.5 mm jack for wired listening.
• Dual‑device connectivity on Android, iOS, and Windows.
