This has been a long time coming. Nothing has grown from a fledgling phone brand - with its Phone (1) and Phone (2) models - to a wider tech disruptor over the last few years.

It was only a matter of time before it branched into trying its hand at making the best headphones. Its earbuds laid the groundwork, and now it has a flagship audio device to share in the form of Headphone (1).

These over-ears are some of the most eye-catching headphones to launch in recent years, with a visual identity that doesn't resemble anything else you'll find on the market. Their design means you can tell them apart from any competitor, even at a distance. Everything centres around two bold decisions.

First, it's that trademark Nothing transparency on the outside of each earcup, letting you see through to some internal parts.
