Nothing Headphones (1)

Nothing Headphone (1) introduces a raw, industrial approach to over-ear design. Its exposed frame reveals internal components beneath semi-transparent shells, combining aluminum, matte plastic, and synthetic leather in a way that feels both mechanical and refined.

The earcups are visually balanced and perfectly weighted, with a distinct control layout that includes a tactile metal scroll wheel and a spring-loaded paddle. Rather than blending in, these headphones sit confidently on a desk or hook like an architectural object.

The sound profile was tuned in collaboration with KEF, delivering a neutral, detail-rich character. Adaptive noise cancellation reaches up to 45 dB, with real-world battery life pushing past 60 hours. Dual-device pairing and quick charge support make it as practical as it is sculptural.
