Nothing Ear Stick Review: Smart Features, Brilliant Design and Cost-Effective
More than a year ago, Nothing stormed the earbuds market with its Nothing Ear 1. It became an overnight sensation due to an array of exciting features. Soon, it started to wreak havoc across the earbuds market, globally. But one of the main reasons why some resorted to not considering it, was indeed its bit steep price-tag. However, the new Nothing Ear Stick ticks that box too, as it comes with a price of $99.00, which is way lower than its predecessor, which costs you $149, after a recent price-hike.Â
There are people who prefer an open design so far as earbuds are concerned and the new Nothing Ear Stick pulls it off in an ultimate fashion as it decides to do away with the in-ear tip. This separates it from the crowd along with an out-of-the-box design, something which deserves special mention in this Nothing Ear Stick review. In this regard, it clearly edges past its flagship predecessor.Â
At a glance, the Nothing Ear Stick features are exciting enough and in many aspects, happen to be a considerable upgrade over the previous model. Here are its salient features.Â
