It’s official: the striking helmet (1) has been launched, and they are not like any other earpiece thanks to a very unusual and somewhat retro-futuristic design.
There is a substance to match the style. Developed in association with the legend Audio Kef, the helmet (1) is the most premium helmet that nothing has done so far. Nothing promises a large sound and a wide range of intelligent features.
We have already spent a few weeks testing the headphones, and you can read our full headset review (1) – but if you want to know more, here is what you need to know.
Nothing helmet (1): Price and availability
The helmet (1) will be available in black and white for £ 299 / $ 299 / € 299 (around $ 625 in). World pre -orders begin on July 4, 2025 on nothing .Tech and certain partners, with general availability from July 15, 2025.
They are available in the colors “black” and “white”, which are really “dark gray” and “silver”.
Nothing helmet (1): design
“We wanted to create something radically different,” said CEO of nothing Carl Pei during a Lauch event in London. He showed a series of images of lengths of competitors and said that nothing wanted more than the helmet (1) wanted to stand anything, and that’s really true.
There are daring choices here, as you can see on the images. But it is not only in the headphones of the headphones: nothing has deliberately moved away from tactile controls with good old -fashioned tactile pimples and a roll for a more precise means of navigating in the media, adjusting the volume and changing the old modes.
Control of the Application Keys is the button, a customizable control that can activate the HOP functionality of Nothing’s Channel. This cycle between recent audio applications, reading lists, or favorite functions without having to search menus and screens.
It can also be configured to trigger voice commands, launch a news journalist or open the essential space, which is a place powered by AI to store vocal notes, reminders and “ephemeral thoughts”. Or you can simply define it to trigger other functions of headphones, if you prefer.
The ear plates are made with leather ear cushions designed to naturally shape your head shape, reducing pressure and providing a comfortable adjustment for wear all day.
