London-based technology brand Nothing named V from BTS as global brand ambassador alongside releasing the flagship Headphone (1) Pro. You get an over-ear design focused on technical audio performance for daily listening and studio monitoring. The outer ear cups feature scratch-resistant 9H Panda glass, giving you a view of internal components. Engineers built the frame from single-block aluminum paired with titanium arms, reducing overall weight to 327 grams. Redesigned dual-layer ear cushions and a wider padded headband give you improved comfort during long sessions.
Inside each ear cup, Nothing replaced single-driver layouts with a triple-driver arrangement. A 40mm dynamic driver produces low frequencies, a precision dynamic driver handles vocals, and a solid-state xMEMS driver delivers high frequencies across a 20Hz to 40kHz range. Collaborating with Metropolis Studios, Nothing integrated a physical Flat EQ Switch on the hardware. Flipping this switch provides you with an uncolored sound profile for mixing work. You also gain access to Studio B spatial audio settings and custom EQ controls through the companion Nothing X mobile app.
Noise isolation relies on a 10-microphone array running real-time adaptive active noise cancellation rated up to 46 dB. An 8mm silicone baffle wall inside the cushion structure reduces sound leakage. Connectivity options give you Bluetooth, USB-C lossless audio playback at 24-bit/192kHz, and standard 3.5mm wired input. The 1,060 mAh internal battery provides up to 68 hours of playback with active noise cancellation turned off, or 30 hours with noise cancellation enabled. A five-minute fast charge supplies two additional listening hours. An IP52 rating protects your headset against dust and water splashes. You buy the Headphone (1) Pro for $399 (€349) directly on the official Nothing webstore and through select retail stores.
