I've had the Ear(2) for about a month now, and it seems to be going well. I skipped the Ear(1) after hearing about the many, many issues and replacements, as well as the price hike. I was interested in the design, but I knew to stay away from them until at least another generation. When I got the Ear(2), I was a bit disappointed with the sound (as I'm used to my good old 7506s), but as soon as I updated it and changed it to the flat EQ, they instantly got much better. I think they sound fine, honestly, and I just love the transparent plastic. I would prefer is they supported iPhone Hi-Res Bluetooth, but that just might not be possible right now. Overall, pretty solid, especially in environments with some background noise, but nowhere near audiophile quality. At least they're marginally better than EarPods.
Haven't watched the channel in a while and stumbled upon this video. Damn boii the cinematography is nice now. Lovely seeing you getting better and better at this !
I was hyped to try the Ear(2), but they sounded thin and odd to me. After a LOT of testing I came to the conclusion that they simply don’t fit in my ear. They just fall out all the time, no matter what plug I’m using.. They’re too shallow for me. Since they don’t fit my personal ear shape, the crucial to sound seal isn’t air tight, and the whole sound experience is thrown out the window… If I manually force them into my ears and keep them there, they sound pretty alright, and I can get an idea of what they actually are designed to sound like.
MY FATHER! Finally I think that i found the type of reviews/analysis that I was looking for. i can note the passion in the content, that is awesome for me and probably for all the viewers. Thanks a lot :)
You should definitely do more true wireless iems. Big market. I heard most of the top ones. So far the momentum 3 (after new update and new personal setting via series of audio tests) is top sounding followed by Nuratrue Pro (personalized setting with some slight eq fixes in the app). Please revisit the momentum 3 with your own personal setting (doing the audio tests). Edit: The Status 3anc (audiophile signature mode) is arguably the top sounding one too.
Unlike Sony, Samsung doesn't allow you to replace a missing bud. I'm not sure if it's changed but this is probably the only reason why I bought the older XM3
I bought the ear1 back in late 2021 and sold them 1.5 years later. I liked the design and the anc was good too. But the sound was worse than some free headphones you get with a phone sometimes. Luckily, the hype for them is still there and so someone was willing to pay 120€, 20€ more than what I paid for
The free headset that was included in the S10+ was awesome. Even Crinacle gave it minor props considering it's price point. Remember it was right around the time Samsung bought AKG
I got the Nothing ear (1)s at release, and am currently on my second replacement pair (third total). From audible BT radio interference, to non-functional touch controls/ANC, and problems charging correctly; the hardware quality/QA is seriously sub-par, luckily the CS experience has been great. Though most of the issues seem to have been at least partially mitigated through firmware updates, I still find myself having to put them back in the case, only to take them out 3 seconds later, up to 3 times, to get the ANC and touch controls to work reliably. They indeed sound like a 15-20$ pair of wired earbuds (mainstream, not miracle Chi-Fi) out of the box. However, using the proper AutoEQ preset with Wavelet on Android makes them more than acceptable, to me, for casual listening.
I was also influenced by the hype around the (1)s and got them as soon as they were available... I sent them back after 1 week. Truly horrible user experience.
i own them and i dont have almost any problems, a few times they gave me an heart attack, but solved the issue quickly. i still like them and use everyday, for 80$ they are worth it. maybe you got unlucky with them or weren't to carefull.
You must truly want that wireless experience to undergo the hassle. If that's the case, that's fine, but if you don't mind wires, you can find in-ear headphones leagues better for cheaper. Idk if you knew that already, just making it known. Whatever makes you happy is what matters.
@@RemedieX It's indeed mostly about the overall convenience package; ANC was also a must for public transport. I own technically stronger IEMs and headphones, but those wouldn't satisfy my daily use (especially fitment with IEMs, in-ears rarely fit comfortably in my freakish ears).
Well, it's a about time you reviewed their new buds the Nothing Ear and Nothing Ear (a) - any plans to do it? VERY curious to know yur thoughts on them
Really appreciate this upload. Could you consider covering more wireless IEMs? I’ve noticed there’s a lot of people asking for this in your comment sections. As you know, the bluetooth earbuds (in-ear) market has exploded over recent years. There’s an incredible amount of misinformation and misunderstanding floating around. I guess the same could be said for any audio products. I hope you can consider measuring the bigger releases, focusing on the premium products. I’ve seen you do this with Galaxy Buds, AirPods Pro and Sony’s XM series, for example. I hope you consider keeping a closer eye on this market and covering these every so often. It is incredibly appreciated as there’s too much junk to sift through and not enough reliable sources to get objective info like measurement data, for example. A great example is Technics AZ80 and JBL Tour Pro 2. I saw your measurement for an older Technics wireless IEM (AZ70) and they don’t seem all that good. We are very curious to know if Technics has changed their tuning as this is an extremely solid earbud in all other categories. But I can’t find measurements anywhere for these. 0DiBi has a video and measurements for JBL Tour Pro 2 and they look amazing. Tuned to Harman and the in-app EQ is God tier. I rarely see an in app EQ with so many bands (10?) but also allows you to move any band left or right changing the center frequency to boost or cut! Just amazing. So with their straightforward and smooth tuning, an EQ like this seems that it would be possible to tweak the signature as you please. Really interested to hear educated opinions on this pair. Unfortunately, 0DiBi’s video is in Korean with no English subtitles, for now. A shame.
I was initially considering the Nothing Ear 1 because of the price (100 bucks), but then I saw the Galaxy Buds 2 go on sale for 60 bucks locally. So I bought that instead because of your reviews and I don't regret it hahaha!
@@ShantanurajPatil it sometimes can go on sale at Best Buy for refurbished. As usual, refurbished is a lottery system. My fiancee's were almost brand new with the outside colorful box being damaged. So I think it was cosmetic damage returned by a previous customer who never opened them.
Bro I bought the Nothing 1s when they first came out. Used them loved them then lost them with the case. Finally found them today in the trunk of my car in my jacket OVER 2 years later. They still had charge I was fkn baffled
I liked the Ear 1 for a few months but they don't hold up well. After a year, they don't like to dock properly, and they frequently pause themselves when I'm not touching them. Also, if you lose one you can't just replace one. Hopefully these things aren't an issue with Ear 2. Not sure if I want to risk it.
Idk i feel like the expectations that he has at such a price point can’t be met. Even if Sennheiser/B&O/Bose came out with a same-spec product it wouldn’t be in the price range and value Nothing can push out.
I hope you also review their (stick) products. I find the rubber tips irritating to my ears, and the plastic teardrop shape works the best. So i always look at earphones of that shape, even if they're not the most premium product.
Pittvandewitt is such a cool guy. I love him. Every time I buy new earbuds he sends me a nice customized Wavelet file that makes cheap stuff sound way more balanced.

Tried Nothing Ear 2 (didnt try 1) and love them, have tried JBL Tune Beam and Jabra Elite 85T together and the Nothing Ear 2 sounds the best imho , Also the noise cancelling and mic is the best ive come across. I work next to my wife and when shes on a call it sounds like shes in another room, which isnt the case with the other two.
I had the nothing 1, warranty replaced them with the nothing 2 and they're both alright. I don't live them, they're not amazing but they're very serviceable and decently priced for what they are.
@@SchwarzAAWell just by credentials alone and reputation, Crinacle has reviewed and measured more than a thousand Earphones ranging from cheap to many hundreds and thousands of dollars in price. He's also one of the most known and respected reviewers in the Audiophile space. His standards for Audio quality in earphones are pretty damn high. He also did collabs with other companies to Tune their earphones for them.
This is one of the reasons I like wireless neckband adapters. Sure, you don't get ANC, but you do get better battery life, a reduced risk of losing an earphone because it fell out, and the manufacturer can just tune the output of the DAC and amp to be basically flat and leave all of the more characteristic tuning to whoever makes the IEMs you decide to stick on it. I would like it if more companies decided to copy Shure and include a pass-through mode, since a lot of IEMs can offer anywhere from 10 to 26dB of passive noise isolation.
Hello Sir Crin, WHat would you recommend in todays date?? if I want something similar/Better to BLON 03 sound. I love my Blon -03, i love its Design Sound and Fitting... and my friends too love them. _(I don't like Harsh high ends, but I do like Bass but Not Overpowering, Blon -03 reallly opened up the way i listen to music)_
Bought the new ear 2 feels like a waste of money imo. Bluetooth range sucks compared to my one plus pros from 2 years ago and sounds not really any different. Definitely doesn't compare the airpods in the slightest. Battery life sucks and sometimes they don't charge. Can get a range of 1 hr to 6hrs max and most of the time they only last 3 hrs avg. Was excited to finally get the nothing and try em out but pretty disappointed. Probably will never try nothing again tbh
when tuning the thing, they took a measurement and tuned it to match the harman target, but they didn't realize that the measurement they took was already compensated to harman and not raw. So they ended up with double the bass boost and gain of the harman target. Hence harman^2. Basically, they really need to fire their engineer.
yo I was wondering have you ever reviewed the Sony XM4 earbuds. I recently got them and am experiencing an issue where when I listen to stuff with a certain frequency (mainly voices) like podcasts and youtube videos. I hear like a hollow metal sound like someone is tapping against a Blue Yeti mic at the end of sentences. Have you noticed this before and if so does anyone have a fix for this? I saw a threat about it on Reddit, but no real solution, seemed like no point in returning them for a new pair (same issue) and Sony never addressed this...
I have both the Ear (2) and the OnePlus Buds Pro 2 and the Ear 2 has great soundstage, but the vocals are bizarre... They sound thin and so weird it's really hard to explain. The personalised sound is an improvement and does restore the highs, but also makes them a bit too much sometimes. The bass is awful too, the EQ for bass is awful. The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have amazing bass for an IEM for a bass head like me but are far more narrow and less perceived detail retrieval to boot overall. I'm kinda torn and would love a mix of the two.
I Will most likely stick to my Arrogant Bastard Hurricane, because they are VERY comfortable and have pretty good sound thinking about the price (I Am not audio-enthusiast or something like that, but i like my headphones because ive had 2 of them total for about 9 - 10 years now.)
I m surprised u finally reviewed it after the galaxy earbuds 2 pro and airpod 2 pro. Thanks for the review, despite being too late because I just bought one for my wife. Anyway as long as she is happy with it, im okay. Myself still stuck with 2nd release of CCA CRA.
Why the gripe with earbuds? I for one cannot fit in-ears into my ear canal and I've tried every option besides a 3d-scanned custom mold. I have to use earbuds or headphones :/
Just as he said that he would review nothing I accidentally scrolled and the video ended. For a second I really thought that it was just a 5 second shitpost
If you are reviewing these pop headphones as someone really into sound you probably won't like them, but people said the same thing about raycons and a lot of average people just enjoy them anyway. There is a bit of a gap between the general market and enthusiasts. Personally I watch this channel passively, and Nothing's are one of my favourites. You can talk to me about graphs and why they aren't good, but at the end of the day I put them in my ears and I just enjoy the sound well enough. I'm happy they made them better, but ultimately a lot of people like me also buy them for the design, and they are very comfortable because of the size/weight. I'm not trying to crap on this review though, everything in it is technically correct.
@@PKM1010 yeah it's subjective and a lot of people haven't heard how good things can actually sound and average consumer doesn't know any better. Things like this aren't really targeted at the audiophile community. Just like anc headphones 90% of them are trash but they are aimed at people that travel and are willing to sacrifice sound quality for the added features. I just see straight through the nothing hype train but I get it they are trying to get the name out there and they have but right now they've done nothing that interest me but maybe in the future they will.
@@PKM1010 if you have a good pair of headphone (or iem) you can't go back. but yeah, i agree that general market don't care. but i think it's a positive movement to tell them what is good and what is bad, so the industry can have higher minimum bar.
@@PKM1010 saying "average people enjoy Raycons" for me translates to "average people are clueless about the potential and their enjoyment hinges on that lack of experience". Raycon isn't a product thats serviceable for the average person, its influencer-marketed garbage for people with little clue and too much trust in marketing.
@@PKM1010That's the whole point of this review and Crinacle as a whole: it's targeted towards audiophiles. Obviously, the negative comments here will come from people who are into audio, not the average fan. Besides, the average fan will most likely be watching people like MKBHD & Mrwhosetheboss anyway.

You should definitely do more true wireless iems. Big market.
I heard most of the top ones.
So far the momentum 3 (after new update and new personal setting via series of audio tests) is top sounding followed by Nuratrue Pro (personalized setting with some slight eq fixes in the app). Please revisit the momentum 3 with your own personal setting (doing the audio tests).
Edit: The Status 3anc (audiophile signature mode) is arguably the top sounding one too.
Have you heard the Noble Audio Fokus Mystique? I’d rank that as a top one.
The sennheiser momentum 3 uses the same drivers as the IE600 and IE900. Most technically capable tws iems.
I have the Galaxy Buds2 and absolutely love the things.
have you heard about the apple airpods pro? they are a bit of a unknown niche brand, but they could make it big in the industry!
Yeah for reviews to be useful, there needs to be a reference point - a review for something many people have tried.
The mention « at launch » can be used on the buds 2 pro too, now you can easily find it for less than 100$
It's the other way around with nothing.
They released it at 100$ and then bumped the price to 150$.
I don't know how much they cost right now.

He's also one of the most known and respected reviewers in the Audiophile space. His standards for Audio quality in earphones are pretty damn high. He also did collabs with other companies to Tune their earphones for them.
let me present you to this one thing:
preference and opinion

I'm watching this while using ear 1
Hello, I have a question about wat is the best IEM's for studio mixing and mastering. Thanks
Oriolus Traillii
@@zenniz1992thank you
Why would you want to use IEMs for mixing? That's a job for speakers.
Hello there
This is one of the reasons I like wireless neckband adapters. Sure, you don't get ANC, but you do get better battery life, a reduced risk of losing an earphone because it fell out, and the manufacturer can just tune the output of the DAC and amp to be basically flat and leave all of the more characteristic tuning to whoever makes the IEMs you decide to stick on it. I would like it if more companies decided to copy Shure and include a pass-through mode, since a lot of IEMs can offer anywhere from 10 to 26dB of passive noise isolation.
Crin dismissing the earbuds for being earbuds is hilarious 😂
Linsoul is not sending for free on Brazil. Did I miss something?
wait, the Sticks are earbuds but the others aren't can someone help me out with the definitions here?
earbuds kinda sit on your ear, think 1st gen apple earpods (the wired ones), while earphones/iems go into your ear canal
What makes your hearing better than mine?
Nothing x Crinacle would be hype af
TLDW section got me subscribed.
Hello Sir Crin,
WHat would you recommend in todays date?? if I want something similar/Better to BLON 03 sound.
I love my Blon -03, i love its Design Sound and Fitting... and my friends too love them.
_(I don't like Harsh high ends, but I do like Bass but Not Overpowering, Blon -03 reallly opened up the way i listen to music)_
Bought the new ear 2 feels like a waste of money imo. Bluetooth range sucks compared to my one plus pros from 2 years ago and sounds not really any different. Definitely doesn't compare the airpods in the slightest. Battery life sucks and sometimes they don't charge. Can get a range of 1 hr to 6hrs max and most of the time they only last 3 hrs avg. Was excited to finally get the nothing and try em out but pretty disappointed. Probably will never try nothing again tbh
This dude’s thumbnails always cracks me up. Always visibly disappointed each time he appears on my youtube
I rode that Nothing Ear 1 hype train and bought them at launch. I really only use them for podcasts these days
Harman^2 💀💀💀
Genuine question:
Can someone explain what is Harman^2 ?
I get the Harmon curve but didn’t understand why harman^2 was significant …
In a nutshell, the driver is flat, but the amp is tuned to harman AND the signal is tuned to harman too...
when tuning the thing, they took a measurement and tuned it to match the harman target, but they didn't realize that the measurement they took was already compensated to harman and not raw. So they ended up with double the bass boost and gain of the harman target. Hence harman^2. Basically, they really need to fire their engineer.
yo I was wondering have you ever reviewed the Sony XM4 earbuds. I recently got them and am experiencing an issue where when I listen to stuff with a certain frequency (mainly voices) like podcasts and youtube videos. I hear like a hollow metal sound like someone is tapping against a Blue Yeti mic at the end of sentences. Have you noticed this before and if so does anyone have a fix for this? I saw a threat about it on Reddit, but no real solution, seemed like no point in returning them for a new pair (same issue) and Sony never addressed this...
Damn, i like this camera setup wayy more than your logitech webcam
I have both the Ear (2) and the OnePlus Buds Pro 2 and the Ear 2 has great soundstage, but the vocals are bizarre... They sound thin and so weird it's really hard to explain.
The personalised sound is an improvement and does restore the highs, but also makes them a bit too much sometimes. The bass is awful too, the EQ for bass is awful.
The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have amazing bass for an IEM for a bass head like me but are far more narrow and less perceived detail retrieval to boot overall.
I'm kinda torn and would love a mix of the two.
Watching reviews on something to nothing, we have evolved a lot.
I Will most likely stick to my Arrogant Bastard Hurricane, because they are VERY comfortable and have pretty good sound thinking about the price
(I Am not audio-enthusiast or something like that, but i like my headphones because ive had 2 of them total for about 9 - 10 years now.)
Hey Crin, what do you think of the Audeze Maxwell?
I m surprised u finally reviewed it after the galaxy earbuds 2 pro and airpod 2 pro. Thanks for the review, despite being too late because I just bought one for my wife. Anyway as long as she is happy with it, im okay. Myself still stuck with 2nd release of CCA CRA.
I don't get the hype for the nothing ear 2s, There are much better tws iems that are available for the same price.
better marketing
Like these videos but the whole "credentials" part at the beginning of almost every video I've watched does get old
Why the gripe with earbuds? I for one cannot fit in-ears into my ear canal and I've tried every option besides a 3d-scanned custom mold. I have to use earbuds or headphones :/
before im using KZ ZSN now im using Truthear Hola is it an upgrade?
Do you think it's an upgrade?
Trust your ears, don't seek validation.
i dont like crinacle reviews since i bought moondrop iem and stoped working after using it 2 times ... hving say that i agree nithings trash :V
ANC mic on nothing 2 has beaten all. This is what reviews other are saying
Just as he said that he would review nothing I accidentally scrolled and the video ended. For a second I really thought that it was just a 5 second shitpost
Nothing but hype should be their tag line.
If you are reviewing these pop headphones as someone really into sound you probably won't like them, but people said the same thing about raycons and a lot of average people just enjoy them anyway. There is a bit of a gap between the general market and enthusiasts.
Personally I watch this channel passively, and Nothing's are one of my favourites. You can talk to me about graphs and why they aren't good, but at the end of the day I put them in my ears and I just enjoy the sound well enough. I'm happy they made them better, but ultimately a lot of people like me also buy them for the design, and they are very comfortable because of the size/weight.
I'm not trying to crap on this review though, everything in it is technically correct.
@@PKM1010 yeah it's subjective and a lot of people haven't heard how good things can actually sound and average consumer doesn't know any better. Things like this aren't really targeted at the audiophile community. Just like anc headphones 90% of them are trash but they are aimed at people that travel and are willing to sacrifice sound quality for the added features. I just see straight through the nothing hype train but I get it they are trying to get the name out there and they have but right now they've done nothing that interest me but maybe in the future they will.
@@PKM1010 if you have a good pair of headphone (or iem) you can't go back.
but yeah, i agree that general market don't care. but i think it's a positive movement to tell them what is good and what is bad, so the industry can have higher minimum bar.
@@PKM1010 saying "average people enjoy Raycons" for me translates to "average people are clueless about the potential and their enjoyment hinges on that lack of experience". Raycon isn't a product thats serviceable for the average person, its influencer-marketed garbage for people with little clue and too much trust in marketing.
@@PKM1010That's the whole point of this review and Crinacle as a whole: it's targeted towards audiophiles. Obviously, the negative comments here will come from people who are into audio, not the average fan.
Besides, the average fan will most likely be watching people like MKBHD & Mrwhosetheboss anyway.
