Nothing is preparing to expand its product lineup beyond smartphones, with a new leak indicating that the company is working on a more affordable pair of over-ear headphones ahead of a March launch.
According to information shared by Billbil-kun, a leaker known for accurately disclosing product launch details, the device will be called the Nothing Headphone (a). The headphones are expected to be announced on March 5, 2026, with pre-orders opening the same day and general availability starting March 12.
The report suggests the Headphone (a) will be offered in four color options—pink, white, black and yellow—signaling a broader aesthetic range than Nothing’s existing audio products. Billbil-kun wrote that the model is “scheduled for a mid-March launch,” according to the leak.
Pricing details indicate the new headset will sit well below Nothing’s first over-ear headphones. While the Nothing Headphone (1) debuted at €299, the Headphone (a) is expected to launch at €159 in Europe and £149 in the UK, suggesting it will target a more price-sensitive segment of the market.

Earlier speculation had pointed to the Headphone (a) being a rebranded version of the original model with cheaper materials, but the lower price point casts doubt on that assumption. No technical specifications or feature details have yet emerged, though the pricing implies the new headphones may offer fewer features than the flagship Headphone (1).
