Nothing Technology - Reviews and experiences

A coworker actually tipped me off to these, so I bought a pair to try. The earbuds looked great out of the case and the sound really delivers — clear mids, decent bass. I used them a lot at first. Delivery was quick and the packaging was fine, no issues there. ANC works well too, which made them my go-to for noisy commutes. Then the battery started to tank after about a year. With ANC on I’m down to roughly three hours, which is way less than advertised and not great for longer runs or hikes. I tried firmware updates and resets. I even followed the usual troubleshooting steps. Customer service responded quickly and was polite. They offered a repair but the quoted costs (plus return shipping) felt steep, especially for a mid-range pair. That pushed me to request a partial refund through the retailer, which was handled smoothly, so props there. Overall I’m still impressed by the sound and the initial build, and I do feel a bit bummed about the battery life. If you need reliable long-term battery performance, this might be a gamble. If you value delivery speed and decent service, those parts worked out for me. A solid package with one annoying caveat.
