Nothing confirms imminent launch of its Apple AirPods Max challenger headphones
Headphone (1) will be sick!

In a notable move, Nothing is reportedly collaborating with British audio company KEF to develop the headphones. KEF is known for its high-quality speaker systems, and this partnership could help Nothing deliver a strong audio experience out of the gate.
Design-wise, the headphones are expected to follow the same minimalist style seen across Nothing’s product range. Leaks suggest they will be available in black and white, matching the two color options of the Phone (3). While detailed specifications haven’t been confirmed, they are likely to include features like active noise cancellation and Bluetooth support, given the target price and competition.
With this launch, Nothing continues to build an ecosystem that connects its smartphones, earbuds, and now headphones under a unified design and user experience. While it remains to be seen how well the new headphones will perform in real-world use, the company is clearly aiming to compete with some of the biggest names in consumer audio.
We previously reported on the Nothing Phone (3)’s July 1st release window, and now it looks like the company is planning a much larger event, with at least two products sharing the spotlight. As we learn more about the headphones’ name, specs, and features, we’ll be following closely.
