New leak claims Nothing’s Headphone (a) will launch in March as a cheaper alternative to Headphone (1)

According to Billbil-kun, a well-known leaker who has a strong track record of accurately revealing launch dates and prices for several products before their official announcements, Nothing is planning to launch a new headset called the Nothing Headphone (a). 

Earlier rumors had claimed that this model could simply be a rebranded version of the Nothing Headphone (1), possibly with a plastic build. However, this latest leak gives us a clearer picture of what Nothing is actually planning.

Billbil-kun reports that the Nothing Headphone (a) will be available in four color options. These include Pink, White, Black, and Yellow. As far as the release date is concerned, it is reportedly scheduled to launch on March 12, 2026. Pre-orders will begin one week earlier, on March 5. That pre-order date is also expected to line up with the official product announcement from Nothing.

However, when we look at the leaked price, it’s difficult to believe that the Headphone (a) will simply be a rebranded version of the Headphone (1). While the latter launched with a €299 price tag, the Headphone (a) is expected to be priced at €159. In the UK, it will reportedly cost £149. At the moment, Billbil-kun has not managed to learn anything about its features. However, given the price, it will most likely offer fewer features than the Headphone (1).
