Based on these reviews, it sounds like Nothing's first over-ear headphones are solid, at worst. You may have to deal with slightly worse audio quality than some of the more expensive models, and you may not like the design, but they seem like a good value where it counts.

The $299 Nothing Headphone 1 offers many features that compete well with Bose, Apple, and Sony, and the lower price might get some folks to choose it. If the design fits your personality, then saving $200 for this audio quality and noise cancellation makes this a package worth considering.

The Nothing Headphone (1) stands out in a crowded market with a distinctive design, customizable controls, and good noise cancellation, but getting the best sound quality requires some work on your part.
