Nothing’s New Wireless Headphones Take the 'Pro' Label Literally
Gizmodo • • general
Key Points:
- Nothing has released its first "Pro" wireless headphones, the $399 Headphone 1 Pro, featuring significant upgrades in driver architecture and EQ for enhanced sound quality.
- The headphones use a new three-driver system, with dedicated drivers for bass, vocals/instruments, and treble, aiming to deliver more precise and dynamic audio performance.
- Collaborating with Metropolis Studios, Nothing introduced a physical "flat EQ" switch for uncolored sound and a "Studio B" spatial sound mode that simulates a professional control room experience, along with genre-specific EQ presets.
- The design includes premium materials like titanium for lighter arms and softer ear cushions, while active noise cancellation is improved to 45dB from 42dB in the previous model.
- Battery life decreased slightly to 30 hours with ANC on, down from 35 hours in the original Headphone 1, likely due to the added complexity of the three-driver setup.
