Dom_K Thanks for the peak into the internals! I actually find it amusing that the ceramic diaphragm’s colour is close to the colour of a humans eardrum, haha. And that the FCP is foldable is pretty impressive. Good luck to the other entrants.
DinoBosco Rob ⚡️ The detailed engineering within the Earbud’s Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) and its integration impressed me the most. The intricate folding of the large FPC into the earbud housing to connect all components to the main PCBA is a remarkable feat. This design not only maximizes the use of limited space but also ensures that all elements work seamlessly together.
ROHITRaj_Z5uRoyhPiG Rob ⚡️ I appreciated the engineering behind the Nothing Ear the most when looking at the intricate design of the Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC). The way it folds to connect all the components within such a compact space, including the placement of the mics and touch sensors, is truly impressive. It highlights the thoughtful design and precision engineering that goes into creating these earbuds.
himanshukumar_SGnbPjYszi Rob ⚡️ really amazed how neatly and cleverly that out those components in small package and how they are able to do so , really nice demonstration as well and great explanation how different components work.
RohanSawant Rob ⚡️ I personally like the Transparant stem idea of the ear buds, as transparency was the main highlight for me to get a Nothing phone for a unique experience. After knowing it continues in ear buds & other parts too just excites me to get the product. Hope to win this giveaway & get hold of that earbud
RaduBratan I am fascinated by the earbud PCBAs, those things not only have a pleasantly looking shape, but also pack so much tech inside them and make use of every mm2 the circuit board has to offer in a satisfying way.
L3N0X Rob ⚡️ I really like how much small parts they use inside the case which other manufactures wouldn’t because they’re only for design and also how much technology they were able to fit inside those buds is amazing! There are no better buds!
dranoel Rob ⚡️ Im absolutely astonished by the way all the components fit together as a whole. Its so interesting to see all the little dents which are carefully placed to make room for a chip on another pcba, only so that the system as a whole is able to fitted inside such a tiny covering. As an architecture student, this “form follows function” approach is very inspiring.
ShahanxD The circular components, notably the ceramic material upgrade and the extra push to adjust additional vents allowing more airflow, is what makes me appreciate the Team’s persistence to achieve more. Great job! Oh and this is the most beautiful teardown I’ve seen in a while, thanks!
CharlesChikanya Rob ⚡️ honestly speaking i love the design of the case and the buds,their simple and yet they fuel my curiosity.They also make me want to learn more about them and the vibe they seem to have👻.Also you guys always give us nice details about your product which is super 😉😉
Valerio G. Rob ⚡️ Not many companies are able to optimize the interior spaces. Nothing instead is among the best in this, and we notice it since Nothing Phone 1; the optimization and management of spaces is even more evident analyzing the Nothing Ear. I was surprised how many components were inside one of the headphones. I thought they were less, or that they were arranged differently..!
PraneethRatnagiri Rob ⚡️ As an engineering student, I loved seeing the earbuds PCB A, and how those minuscule components drive such complex tasks. It was mind blowing, thanks for posting the tear down pictures!
thatguyinahat Honestly I’m a massive fan of the case and the mechanics behind it. It turns an already great product into a stellar one that intertwines form & function so beautifully.
Tim I appreciate the layering of the stem, especially as the PCB between the bud and the stem is very narrow and likely delicate but the layering creates a robust structure that doesn’t flex or feel fragile in any way.
