The much-anticipated new Nothing Ear (2) earbuds were set to get officially unveiled during an online event on March 22 , however a new leak appears to have spoiled some of the surprise. Renders and lifestyle images of the new buds have been obtained by tipsterSteve Hemmerstofferand published on thetechoutlook.com showing off minor tweaks to the new models design from the original Nothing Ear (1) . As suggested in earlier reports, the renders show that the Nothing Ear (2)'s are set to maintain the transparent look of their predecessor, with the only clear differences (sorry) being the repositioning of thenoise-cancelling microphones to the top of the buds stems, which also featureear (2)branding. According toHemmerstoffer, the new model will maintain the same 11.6mmdynamic drivers which featured on their predecessors, the Nothing Ear (1) - somewhat surprising considering the company's lower-priced Nothing Ear (Stick) boast larger 12.6mm drivers. Battery life will meanwhile be a slightly improvedsix hours of playback, with a further 30 hours provided by the case. Weighing in at a slightly lighter4.5 grams (making them even lighter than the AirPods Pro 2 ), the report adds that theNothing Ear (2) will have aIP54 rating for dust and water resistance.

Having only just tweaked their original flagship Nothing Ear (1)s late last year to improve their sound quality and connectivity, we werent expecting a massive overhaul for their successors, and that looks set to be the case looking at these renders. While we now know what the new buds will look like, the latest report doesnt address what looks likely to be the Nothing Ear (2)s main new improvements over the companys earlier model. An earlier leak fromHemmerstofferclaimed that the new buds will feature an overhaul of thenoise cancelling which would be a really welcome upgrade, particularly with the Ear (1)s ttransparency mode being a bit of an Achilles heel. Theres also no further detail onthe intriguing promise of "next-level personalization" of sound that Nothing have teased in the run-up to their launch event, but we expect it to apply to noise cancellation at least, and perhaps to the sound profile too, since this is an increasingly common feature.
