What owners single out
Buyers' weakest aspect—Noise Cancellation (3.8)—directly overlaps the critic concern that ANC is "not as powerful as higher-end models" and some users report "no ANC" performance.
In their words
“You need the Nothing APP!.. I think people are just using them without downloading the app so their reviews aren’t that great, you need the app to fine tune these!. These are the second pair of Nothing earbuds, my previous pair was one of the first generation ones and was impressed by those, but these however are much MUCH better, the bass is sooo good on these.. it’s big.. and heavy deep rich bas”

“Sound Quality:Much better compare to my Kz ZSN Pro. I can say that this is a big upgrade for me. Noise Cancellation:ANC is not good and not bad it can still filter the noise. I am just concerned with the battery. But I just used it today possible that the battery is just adjusting. Based on Gemini it will be good once I’ve charge it like 3 times for the battery cycle. All in all this is a 9.0/10. ”
