Nothing Ear 3 Introduces Enhanced Charging Case With Built-In Mic
Nothing has unveiled its latest TWS earbuds, the Nothing Ear 3, this week, featuring a unique upgrade that has captured attention. While some features remain exclusive to Nothing phones, the brand promises improved ANC support over the Ear 2 and Ear (a) series, delivering better noise cancellation performance.
The standout addition is the Talk button integrated into the transparent charging case, sparking curiosity about its practical use.

The Nothing Ear 3 is priced at $179 (approximately Rs 15,800) and will be available in white and black color options. Sales begin on September 25, while specific details regarding the India launch are yet to be confirmed.
Design and Features
The Ear 3’s charging case retains the brand’s signature transparent design, now enhanced with an aluminium finish. The case incorporates the Talk button and a built-in mic, capable of capturing conversations and syncing with the Essential Space, a feature compatible only with Nothing phones.
The earbuds themselves feature three microphones and a bone-conduction voice pickup unit for improved audio capture. The 12mm dynamic drivers aim to deliver a balanced sound profile with clear output and less emphasis on bass.
