Nothing Ear (a) White
Score: 86/100Rankings
The Nothing Ear (a) in white offers the same transparent design, hybrid ANC and long battery life as the black version, but shares the same compromises in sound balance and lack of wireless charging.
The EarFun Free 2S delivers solid sound, long battery life and robust waterproofing at a budget price, but lacks ANC and suffers from occasional connectivity quirks.
