Nothing Plans September 18 Launch for Ear 3 Flagship Earbuds

Nothing is set to launch its next-generation flagship wireless earbuds, the Ear 3, on September 18, 2025. The Ear 3 will continue the brand's signature transparent design with a stem-like form, similar to its predecessor, the Ear 2, and is expected to improve active noise cancellation, battery life (potentially up to 40 hours), and audio quality, possibly tuned in partnership with KEF. The earbuds may also feature bigger diaphragms, spatial audio support, and enhanced codec compatibility, with anticipated IP54 and IP55 ratings for the buds and charging case respectively. Pricing is expected to be around $150, which could place it above Rs 10,000 in India, with availability likely through Flipkart and Myntra. Nothing has reverted to a straightforward numerical naming convention for clarity, naming the new product Ear 3, although it is technically the fourth in their lineup. The launch event will be streamed globally, with specific timings announced for various regions, but further details about the product reveal and sale date remain unconfirmed.
