Nothing announces Ear (2) launch date

Interesting announcement graphic

Published

on

Carl Pei was a prominent figure back in the recently concluded MWC 2023. During the conference, the entrepreneur shared plans for the future of Nothing, his first venture outside of OnePlus. However, if you’ve followed Nothing since its ostentatious start, you’ll know that the brand likes mystery as much as the spotlight. Today, after a more public showing at MWC 2023, Nothing is back with a more enigmatic tease for fans. This time, it’s for the Ear (2).

Before the brand ever launched a smartphone, Nothing started off with earbuds. The Ear (1) showed off an eccentric design backed by capable hardware and a more-than-fair price tag. But where there’s a “1,” there’s usually a “2.”

On Twitter, Nothing officially confirmed that the Ear (2) will debut on March 22. The announcement graphic also showed a more elongated charging case, unlike the squarish case of the original earbuds. From the bare tease we’ve seen, it looks like a more conventional charging case seen in other brands today — except with a more transparent flair.

The graphic also comes with an image of a rhinoceros beetle. It’s anyone’s guess as to why the brand chose the insect for this device — if it does mean anything. Last time, the Ear (1) launched with imagery of a ladybug.

Thankfully, the wait isn’t too long this time. Now, it’s time to speculate on when the Phone (2) is coming out.

GameSir has a special G7 Pro WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers Edition

Inspired by Wuchang’s Draconic Resurgence costume

Published

GameSir has officially launched a special edition G7 Pro WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers Edition controller.

This high-performance multi-platform controller works with Xbox, PC, and Android, and features a striking new design that ties in with 505 Games’ latest title.

The controller is now available on the GameSir website for US$ 99.99 / £ 109.99 / PhP 5,900. It will be available on Amazon as well by October.

The G7 Pro WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers Edition is inspired by Wuchang’s Draconic Resurgence costume.

It has a distinct blue green appearance, with both sides draped in golden dragon scales that have been enhanced with layered UV resin textures.

The smart charging station features the Soulslike title’s logo, while the A, Y, X, and B buttons also have the game’s font.

Beyond aesthetics, the controller retains key features from the original G7 Pro. It features tri-mode connectivity so users can connect via 2.4GHz wireless, wired, or Bluetooth. It also supports one-press wake-up for Xbox consoles.

At the core of the controller’s precision is GameSir Mag-Res TMR stick technology. This combines the low power consumption of traditional potentiometers and the longevity and stability of Hall Effect sticks.

The result is faster response times, as well as consistent in-game control. This is further supported by a 1000Hz polling rate when connected to PC or 2.4GHz.

In addition, the G7 Pro introduces four customizable macro buttons: two mini bumpers and two lockable back buttons. This gives gamers a flexible configuration. A built-in gyroscope (for PC only) also enables intuitive motion input mapping.

Furthermore, the optical micro switch ABXY buttons and mechanical micro D-pad ensure crisp, esports-level feedback. The four independent rumble motors (one in each grip and trigger) deliver immersive, localized haptic feedback.

Accessories include:

  • 3m Type-C cable
  • 2.4GHz wireless dongle
  • cable retainer
  • two extra D-pads
  • smart charging station
