New Nothing Ear 3a leak has exciting news about price and colors

Nothing has a fairly simple launch strategy for its audio devices: launch a fully specced-out version first, and follow it up with a cheaper version in a few months. We’ve seen this with the Nothing Ear 2 and the Nothing Ear A, the Nothing Headphone 1 and the Nothing Headphone A, and the company is about to do the same thing for the Nothing Ear 3, which it launched last year.

While we haven’t heard much about these new earbuds so far, a new leak is giving us at least some details about what to expect. According to Dealabs, the Nothing Ear 3a will be available in four colors: white, black, yellow, and pink. This is a similar color set to the original Ear A, which launched in white, black, and yellow.

Further, the leak mentions that the earphones will be priced at €99 (~$115) in Europe, indicating that Nothing plans to keep the same price as the 2024 Nothing Ear A. It’s also a considerably lower price than the company’s Nothing Ear 3, which launched for €179 in Europe and $179 in the US.

That’s not surprising, since the Ear A launched at $99 in the US, compared to the $149 launch price of the Ear 2. If the leak is accurate, the Ear 3a could also be priced at $99 at launch.

No other details about the earphones are available right now, but it’s likely that Nothing will once again do what it did with the Ear A: drop some premium features to reduce the price, while still offering an excellent set of core features. That said, I do hope the Ear 3a comes with wireless charging.
