Nothing Headphone 1 Specs Leaked Ahead Of Launch With Phone 3

Nothing is preparing to launch its first over-ear headphones, reportedly called Headphone 1, in addition to its first flagship Nothing Phone 3. The launch has been scheduled for 10:30 p.m. IST on July 1.

Ahead of their official reveal, the specifications of the Nothing Headphone 1 have been leaked online, showing active noise cancellation, long-lasting battery, a unique design, and spatial audio.

The latest leak from Android Headlines indicates that the Headphone 1 will weigh about 329 gm and boast performance levels beating that of Apple’s AirPods Max. Nothing has reportedly partnered with British audio company KEF, which is famed for high-fidelity speakers. 

As per leaks, the Headphone 1 will sport a unique transparent appearance that reflect Nothing’s design language, even though they don’t really offer a full glimpse of the inner tech.

However, the striking feature is the rectangular shape, which reminisces an old cassette player, and is completely different from the circular or oval devices in the market. Additionally, there are three physical buttons: one prominently positioned on the outside of the earcup, while the other two are on the side. 

The Headphone 1 could come with custom 40mm drivers, active noise cancellation that can adapt up to 42db,1,040mAh battery, 80 hours of playback when ANC is switched off, and about 35 hours with ANC on, in addition to spatial audio, adaptive bass, and an 8-band equaliser.

The Headphone 1 will also likely have support for pairing with Microsoft Swift Pair and Google Fast Pair, plus LED charging indicators, low-latency gaming mode, and support for Find My Device.

Although the Headphones 1’s official price has not yet been disclosed, tipped features indicate a premium pricing, at the same time lower than devices from Apple and Sony. The Nothing Headphone 1 is rumoured to cost less than Rs 20,000.
