Nothing Ear (stick) review: Style and substance rolled into one device

Nothing recently launched in India the Ear (stick) wireless earbuds at Rs 8,499. Second product in the UK-based consumer technology start-up’s audio line, the Nothing Ear (stick) is essentially the half in-ear version of the Nothing ear (1) (review). There, however, is more about these wireless earbuds than meets the eye.

Foremost is the unique charging-cum-storage case, which is unlike anything available in the wireless earbuds space. The case is a modestly sized cylindrical unit with a rollable mechanism similar to conventional lipsticks. It is a transparent case made of plastic with the main cavity coloured in white. Accentuating the design is the red accent on the side-end, surrounding the USB-C charging port.
