Nothing's priciest headphones ever land — and our full review verdict is in
Nothing's new Headphones (1) Pro are designed to deliver both everyday audio and studio precision
Nothing's newest and most expensive headphones, the Headphones (1) Pro, have just been released, and our comprehensive review verdict is in. Designed to replace both on-the-go headphones and high-end music listening or production headphones, the Headphones (1) Pro boast an impressive array of features.
Featuring three tuned drivers and ten ANC microphones, these headphones deliver hi-res wired and wireless audio through LDAC, with USB-C supporting lossless audio up to 24-bit/192kHz. Priced at $399 / £349 (approximately AU$657), they're available in black or white starting today, September 29th.
Becky Scarrott gave the headphones a glowing review, praising their excellent sound quality, superior active noise cancellation (ANC), advanced spatial audio, and a particularly robust transparency mode. However, they come with a hefty price tag and a somewhat bulky, heavy design.
A standout feature is Nothing's unique triple-driver setup, which includes a dynamic bass driver, a mid-range dynamic driver, and an xMEMS driver for high frequencies. These drivers, tuned by the experts at Metropolis Studios, can be adjusted via a dedicated Flat EQ switch for a neutral sound profile, perfect for music production.
The headphones also boast a sophisticated transparency mode, enhanced by 10 microphones, and a redesigned ear cushion for a stronger seal. The headband is wider with improved padding for superior long-term comfort, and the cups are finished in scratch-resistant 9H Panda Glass.
