How-To

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. The Nothing Ear (open) is designed with an open design that rests comfortably on the side of your ear, providing a breathable experience, a more natural listening sensation, and extended battery life.

Recognizing that ear shapes vary widely, we understand that the fit and comfort may require some adjustment, especially for first-time users. Incorrect wearing methods can indeed impact comfort and stability.

To achieve the best fit, we advise following the adjustment guidelines in the user manual and official channel to find the optimal angle for your ears.

At Nothing, we take your feedback seriously and are committed to continuous improvement in our products.
Thank you for your understanding and support!

Note: the area is very sensitive so only press when you want to trigger a function to avoid false triggering.

If none of the two connected devices are on a call, the call audio comes from the device that first receives an incoming call. If device A has a call in progress, and you receive an incoming call on device B, Ear (open) plays the ringtone at the same time. If device A hangs up, Ear (open) switches the call audio to device B.

If you have any further questions about Dual Connection, please check the description on nothing.tech, or contact our Customer Service.

When no audio (music, video or call) is running on the two connected devices:
Ear (open) plays audio from the first device receiving the incoming call/making an outgoing call, or from the first device playing back music or video.

When only device A is playing back music or video:
1) Ear (open) switches to device B if there is an incoming call or if device B is making an outgoing call. Calls take priority with Dual Connection. Once the call on device B ends, Ear (open) resumes the music/video playback from device A.
2) When device B starts playing back music or video, Ear (open) plays back audio from the device that first played back music or video.

Gesture controls take effect on the device running the audio (music, video or call). When no audio is running on the connected devices, they take effect on the most recently connected device.

Re-connection
1. If Ear (open) has been paired with multiple devices, it automatically connects to the most recently connected device when the charging case lid opens.
2. If Ear (open) reconnects by returning to the Bluetooth connection range, it automatically connects to the most recently connected device.

Connection priority
1. When no audio (music, video or call) is running on the two connected devices, Ear (open) can be manually connected to a third device to play audio.
2. When audio is running on only one device, Ear (open) can replace the one without audio and manually connect to a third device to play audio.
3. If both connected device are on a call, Ear (open) can't set up a new connection with a third device.

Place both earbuds into the charging case, with the case open. Press and hold the function button on the charging case for 10 seconds. The reset is complete when the red light flashes three times.

You can adjust the volume directly on your phone or use the Pinch and hold gesture in the Nothing X app. Pinch and hold for 1 second, adjust the volume. Once triggered in the Pinch and hold state, the volume changes by one bar every 0.9 seconds and stops rising when the Pinch control is released.
