Nothing couldn't keep it under wraps! The look of the upcoming Nothing Headphone (1) leaked – and it didn't disappoint

Nothing is expanding its hardware portfolio and preparing its first model of large over-ear headphones. The new product, named Nothing Headphone (1), will be officially unveiled on July 1st, alongside the anticipated Phone (3) smartphone. Thanks to fresh leaks, we already know what the headphones will look like – and that, in the brand’s typical spirit, they will again be visually eccentric to some extent.

The main visual dominant feature is the dual-layer construction of the earcups, where the upper part consists of an oval module made of transparent plastic, sitting on a metallic-looking plate with rounded corners. The actual images of the new headphones were provided by the Instagram account @nothing_fan_blog.

The result is a look that sharply contrasts with the smooth curves of competitors like Sony WH-1000XM6. In person, the Nothing Headphone (1) appear as a truly carefully designed technological object.

What will the Nothing Headphone (1) offer?

Two side buttons and another control element on the outer side of the earcup can be seen on the headphones. One of the leaked images also confirms a 3.5mm connector for classic analog listening. At a time when most brands are moving away from the jack, this is a pleasant surprise.

However, the most interesting information from the leaks is that the sound of the Nothing Headphone (1) was tuned by KEF. This British audio brand has decades of experience with high-end speakers, headphones, and subwoofers. And if Nothing opts for truly meticulous tuning, it could be one of the main competitive advantages.

Technical details remain under wraps for now, but according to the leak, the price will be set at approximately 7 423 Kč in Europe. Color options black and white will be available, and sales will begin on September 30, 2025, approximately three months after the official unveiling.
