Nothing Ear 2 launched in India earlier this year as a successor to the Nothing Ear 1, which were released in July 2021 at Rs. 5,999. The Ear 2 offer up to 40dB of active noise cancellation, customised drivers, and AI-backed microphones in each earbud. Now, a tipster has suggested that the earbuds will launch in a new colour variant to join the existing white variant. It is speculated that the new colour could be released alongside the Nothing Phone 2, which is scheduled to launch on July 11.
Tipster Roland Quandt (@rquant) has shared leaked design renders of a black-coloured Nothing Ear 2. The images show that the earbuds in this variant carry a similar semi-transparent design. The internal features of the charging case is seen in black. The earbuds also use black hues prominently.

Nothing Ear 2 specifications, features
Nothing’s Ear 2 in-ear earphones come with up to 40dB of active noise cancellation and 11.6mm customised drivers and three AI-backed microphones in each earbud. Both buds have simple touch controls that allow users to perform multiple functions with ease. With a single tap, users can pause or play music and can answer or end calls. With two consecutive taps, the user can skip ahead on their playlist or decline a call. Users can also skip back with three successive taps. The press-and-hold action on either of the buds allows users to switch between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode, the latter of which lets environmental noise flow in.

Each earbud packs a 33mAh battery while the case comes with a 485mAh battery. With 10 minutes of charge, the earbuds are said to offer listening time of up to eight hours. They offer a total battery life of up to 36 hours with the charging case.
