Summary
- Details about Nothing Headphone (a) have leaked, and it's rumoured to launch on March 12, 2026.
- The headphone will boast a plastic shell and will arrive in four colours – Yellow, Pink, Black and White.
- Nothing Headphone (a) could be priced at 159 Euros (approximately Rs 16,500), cheaper than Headphone (1).
The Headphone (1) marked Nothing's entry into the over-the-ear headphone space, and it was revered for its unique design and strong build quality. Well, the latest rumours suggest Nothing is poised to debut another pair of cans in the next few months, targeted at the budget audience.
Nothing Headphone (a) could debut in March
According to Dealabs, Nothing is reportedly planning to debut Headphone (a) on March 12, 2026, and the device could arrive in four colours – Yellow, Pink, Black and White. The source also claims that pre-orders and an official reveal will likely land a week earlier on March 5, 2026.
This comes as a surprise, considering Nothing talked about the Phone (4a) last week, but did not reveal any details about the Headphone (a). While the brand did discuss the success of Nothing Headphone (1), the video mostly focused on what to expect from the brand in 2026.
The only rumour that we've heard about Headphone (a) so far was back in December 2025, in the Nothing Phone (4a) price leak. Developer MlgmXyysd, via their Telegram channel, revealed that the brand could launch the Headphone (a) as a rebranded Headphone (1) with a plastic shell.
However, this time, we also hear the potential price of Headphone (a). Since it's moving away from metal to plastic, the leak suggests a price of 159 Euros (approximately Rs 16,500). Considering the Headphone (1) launched at 299 Euros (Rs 19,999 in India), the pricing ratio suggests the Headphone (a) should debut at Rs 9,999 in India.
While specific technical details are scarce, the headphone is rumoured to be a reimagined version of the flagship model. It will likely retain the core audio features, while toning down on a few to cut manufacturing costs and appeal to a wider audience.
Since the first reveal is supposedly just a month away, we should see an official confirmation from Nothing any time now. More information about the specifications should be revealed as we inch closer to launch, so stay tuned.
