    Really appreciate this upload. Could you consider covering more wireless IEMs? I’ve noticed there’s a lot of people asking for this in your comment sections. As you know, the bluetooth earbuds (in-ear) market has exploded over recent years. There’s an incredible amount of misinformation and misunderstanding floating around. I guess the same could be said for any audio products.
    I hope you can consider measuring the bigger releases, focusing on the premium products. I’ve seen you do this with Galaxy Buds, AirPods Pro and Sony’s XM series, for example. I hope you consider keeping a closer eye on this market and covering these every so often. It is incredibly appreciated as there’s too much junk to sift through and not enough reliable sources to get objective info like measurement data, for example.
    A great example is Technics AZ80 and JBL Tour Pro 2. I saw your measurement for an older Technics wireless IEM (AZ70) and they don’t seem all that good. We are very curious to know if Technics has changed their tuning as this is an extremely solid earbud in all other categories. But I can’t find measurements anywhere for these. 0DiBi has a video and measurements for JBL Tour Pro 2 and they look amazing. Tuned to Harman and the in-app EQ is God tier. I rarely see an in app EQ with so many bands (10?) but also allows you to move any band left or right changing the center frequency to boost or cut! Just amazing. So with their straightforward and smooth tuning, an EQ like this seems that it would be possible to tweak the signature as you please. Really interested to hear educated opinions on this pair. Unfortunately, 0DiBi’s video is in Korean with no English subtitles, for now. A shame.

    I was initially considering the Nothing Ear 1 because of the price (100 bucks), but then I saw the Galaxy Buds 2 go on sale for 60 bucks locally. So I bought that instead because of your reviews and I don't regret it hahaha!

    I liked the Ear 1 for a few months but they don't hold up well. After a year, they don't like to dock properly, and they frequently pause themselves when I'm not touching them. Also, if you lose one you can't just replace one. Hopefully these things aren't an issue with Ear 2. Not sure if I want to risk it.

    Bought the new ear 2 feels like a waste of money imo. Bluetooth range sucks compared to my one plus pros from 2 years ago and sounds not really any different. Definitely doesn't compare the airpods in the slightest. Battery life sucks and sometimes they don't charge. Can get a range of 1 hr to 6hrs max and most of the time they only last 3 hrs avg. Was excited to finally get the nothing and try em out but pretty disappointed. Probably will never try nothing again tbh

  • @mndlessdrwer
    @mndlessdrwer Рік тому +2

    This is one of the reasons I like wireless neckband adapters. Sure, you don't get ANC, but you do get better battery life, a reduced risk of losing an earphone because it fell out, and the manufacturer can just tune the output of the DAC and amp to be basically flat and leave all of the more characteristic tuning to whoever makes the IEMs you decide to stick on it. I would like it if more companies decided to copy Shure and include a pass-through mode, since a lot of IEMs can offer anywhere from 10 to 26dB of passive noise isolation.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    03:00 🎧 The Nothing Ear (1) is considered terrible in terms of sound quality, with a muddy and shouty sound signature.
    06:29 🎵 The Nothing Ear (2) initially had a subpar sound profile but received a firmware update that improved it, although some listeners still find its timbre to be artificial.
    09:48 📊 The Nothing Ear (2) represents a significant improvement over the Ear (1), but it faces strong competition in its price bracket.
    10:16 💡 The reviewer hopes for further improvements in Nothing's future audio products, particularly the Nothing Ear (3).
    10:30 🙏 The video ends with a thank-you message to Patreon supporters and a humorous offer for additional consultation from Nothing.
