Nothing touts its ear (stick) as an even better new pair of TWS earbuds than usual as a result of their latest software upgrade. The OTA is rated to confer improved battery life during voice calls and connection stability on the accessories, and may grant them more access to bass during audio streaming.

The ear (stick) buds are Nothing's sub-flagship earbuds; neverthelesss, the OEM asserts that they are not to be ignored thanks to their dispenser-tube charging case and "vivid" sound. Now, the OEM seeks to keep the experience of using them "sublime" with a new software update available as of today (April 4, 2023).

Nothing's half-in-ear TWS earbuds were rated for "Clear Voice Technology"-enhanced calls that might be conducted for up to 3 hours without the charging case. Now, this talk-time is extended by an estimated 40 minutes under the new OTA.

The "More Bass" option in the (stick) buds' Nothing X app is also now touted for an improved response following its installation. The accessories were backed for "optimized connectivity" on launch, although Nothing has apparently found more work to be done on their Bluetooth stability, the results of which are also found in their latest software version.
