Nothing is being prepared for a significant hardware update next week. The London-based brand has scheduled its “Built Different” event for March 5, 2026, where it will unveil the Nothing Phone (4a) series along with the new Nothing Headphones (a).

Nothing Headphone (a): Expanding the Audio Lineup -

A teaser image reveals a striking yellow colorway accented by a textured, metallic-style rim and Nothing’s signature dot-matrix branding. The company appears to be emphasizing bold, expressive finishes for its more affordable “(a)” lineup.

The Headphone (a), recently listed on Singapore’s IMDA certification site under model number B186, is expected to serve as a more budget-friendly alternative to last year’s premium Headphone (1).

Here’s what’s known so far -

Design & Materials - To keep pricing competitive, the Headphone (a) is said to feature a polycarbonate body, while maintaining a simplified version of Nothing’s recognizable transparent aesthetic.
Color Options - In addition to the teased yellow, pink, black, and white variants are rumored.
Availability - Pre-orders are likely to begin on March 5, with broader retail availability anticipated from March 12.

With its focus on distinctive design and vibrant colors, Nothing’s March 5 event is set to make an impact in the mid-range segment.
