I recently got my hands on the Nothing Ear (a) and gotta say, they're really good! 
I was a bit skeptical about the price drops, but now that I've used them, I can see why they were discounted in the first place - the sound quality is top-notch! The open midrange is perfect for music lovers like me. And yeah, the noise canceling is on point too... I mean, it's almost like having my own personal quiet space in my ear. 
Of course, the battery life could be a bit better, but 5.5 hours of run time is still decent. The only thing that might give me pause is the size - they do feel a bit big on my ears... but overall, I'd definitely recommend these to anyone looking for great-sounding earbuds!

. I mean, it's decent, but some of the high-end earbuds out there are offering similar run times without breaking the bank 
. That being said, the sound quality and quick pairing feature are major wins for me 
. My only concern is size - if you've got smaller ears, these might not be the comfiest fit 
. Still, for the price...
