Following a more affordable pair of over-ear headphones that launched earlier this year, Nothing is reportedly gearing up to launch “Headphone (1) Pro” later this month.

Dealabs reports that Nothing’s Pro-tier headphones are set to launch on September 29 for $399 (€349), $100 more than the existing Headphone (1).

What’s new?

The report claims that Nothing Headphone (1) Pro would pack 60 hours of battery life, down from 80 hours on Headphone (1) and 135 hours on Headphone (a). The new release would also get Bluetooth 6.1, 10 microphones used in ANC, and have an aluminum build.

Audio changes are also on the table, with tuning apparently handled by Metropolis Studios, a music company in Europe. The Pro release would also have a triple-driver system.

It remains to be seen everything that will be new, but it’ll certainly be interesting to see what Nothing delivers for the extra price. And, with a September 29 release date mentioned, we don’t have long to wait in order to find out.
