Carl Pei’s Nothing entered the market with new true wireless earbuds earlier this year with the launch of the Nothing Ear 1 TWS worldwide. Since launch, the headphones have only been available in one color, 一 white. A couple of weeks ago, the company announced the release of the Black Edition of the Nothing 1 headphones, and they will go on sale for the first time. Here’s everything you need to know about the Dark 1 ear version.

Characteristics and features
With the launch of the Black Edition, Nothing also announced a move to carbon neutral. The company has worked with globally recognized third parties such as Geneva-based SGS to assess Ear 1’s environmental impact. To neutralize its 1.78 kg carbon footprint, Nothing adopted renewable energy certifications for its manufacturing process and then purchased additional carbon credits from the Verified Carbon Standard to offset the remaining emissions.
Otherwise, the rest of the characteristics remained the same as the original buds. The headphones offer active noise cancellation and transparency mode. In terms of design, the Black edition also features a translucent design that gives us a glimpse of the earbuds and the charger’s internals. They are packed with 11.6mm drivers and use Bluetooth 5.2 for connectivity. In terms of battery life, these headphones are rated for 34 hours of battery life on a single charge with 5.7 hours of battery life.
