Bought the Nothing Ear (a) almost 2 years ago and for the price I was happy with them. Microphone wasn't great and noise cancelation was okay but they got the job done for what I needed them to do. I used them for runs, cycling and tasks around the house.
I went to get them out of the case the other day and the clear backing came completely off. I contacted Nothing and they will do.... nothing. I get it's beyond the warranty but they're not even 2 years old. They told me it was due to manmade damage based on 4 pictures I sent them. Thank you for the thorough investigation.
TLDR:
- Don't by Nothing. Average product but won't last.
- Also I'm looking for recommendations for open headphones for around $150 or less. Open to any brand.
