The Nothing Ear (Stick) surely do come with an interesting design
The Nothing Ear (Stick) earbuds do resemble the Ear (1) a bit, but not their charging case. As you can see in the provided images, this case is considerably different, hence the name ‘Stick’. You actually have to twist it in order to open it. The transparent design is still very much in use here. The same goes for both the earbuds themselves and the charging case. Each of the two earbuds weighs 4.4 grams, but do note that ANC is not a part of the picture here. What is, however, are 12.6mm dynamic drivers, and software that detects bass loss, so that it can tune the equalizer curve on the go. The company also utilizes Clear Voice Technology here, while the earbuds are IP54 certified for water and dust resistance. The charging case weighs 46.3 grams. The company says that the Nothing Ear (Stick) earbuds offer up to 7 hours of music playback, and 3 hours of talk time. If you count in the charging case, you can get 29 hours of playback, and 12 hours of talk time.
They also charge really fast
Fast charging is also included in the package. We don’t know the exact speed (wattage), but Nothing says that you can get 9 hours of total playback with a 10-minute charge. So fast charging is most definitely included. The Nothing Ear (Stick) earbuds support Google Fast Pair, and Bluetooth 5.2. AAC and SBC codecs are also supported, and they’re compatible with Android 5.1+ and iOS 11+. These earbuds measure 29.8 x 18.8 x 18.4mm, while the charging case measures 87.1 x 29.8 x 29.8mm. These earbuds are priced at $99, and the sales will kick off on November 4 across 40+ countries. That includes both the US and Canada.
