I took the bait and bought the new nothing ear after already owning the nothing ear(2).
I love my headphones and iems… I’m one of those people…
Just been comparing the two on advanced EQ but with the default tuning (i.e. I’ve not tweaked either).
Have to say, I’m surprised at the noticeable sound quality upgrade on the nothing ear.
I’ve turned the bass boost off but the bass on the new ear is noticeable more details and dynamic than than the ear 2.
There are other refinements and improvements across the spectrum. But bass is where the biggest improvement is.
I’ve not tested other features yet. But I’m glad to have 2 nothing earbuds so when the battery dies mid phone call on the nothing ear (2) I can immediately switch to the Ear and continue the call. Best BT phonecall quality I’ve experienced bar none
