Nothing Ear (a) battery draining issue

Hi everyone, I’ve been using the Nothing Ear (a) since I bought them in June 2024, and only recently (around late July 2025) I started noticing some battery problems. 1. Both earbuds only last about an hour now. 2. The left earbud drains much faster than the right one. 3. They also don’t charge to 100% — when I take them out of the fully charged case, they usually start at around 85%. I reached out to the Nothing service center here in Malaysia, but they only cover devices still under warranty, so they decline to fix my nothing ear a. I reached out to Nothing Support on X, and say that they have forwarded the case to relevant team but since then they completely ignore my message to them. Do nothing devices only last a year? Consider I bought the ear a at launch at full price and it only last a year and nothing decline to solve the issue.

These same ANC problem is also present in there older generation buds like CMF buds.

I hope they fix it by giving hot fix update.

I used a capacity tester, and its less than 30% on mine.
It’s either the charging profile/tolerances is bad damaging the battery or battery quality.
