Nothing Ear Open earbuds
Nothing/CNET

We've tested tons of wireless earbuds over the years, but few look as cool as the Nothing Ear Open earbuds. They definitely stand out in a world of AirPods-like wannabes, and they come with plenty of crowd-pleasing features as well. Even better, this Black Friday deal saves you 32% off the original $189 price. The result? You only need to pay $129 to nab a pair of these wireless earbuds.

There is a catch, though. These wireless earbuds will only be available at this price for a limited time. Amazon has set aside a number of Nothing Ear Open earbuds but once they're gone, they're gone. Get your order in soon if you want to be sure of bagging a bargain.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

In terms of features, these wireless earbuds are built to be used while you're on the move. The built-in earhooks ensure these earbuds don't fall out at the gym or on a run. Fast charging and support for Bluetooth 5.3 mean long-lasting battery life -- up to 30 hours per charge. They're compatible with both Android devices and iPhones and the built-in microphones mean you can make calls, too.

Note that these are open wireless earbuds, meaning that they don't plug into your ear canals. Rather, they sit just outside of them so you can still hear the outside world while specially designed speakers direct sound into your ears, so you don't annoy folks around you. For a lot of use cases, like running, walking the dog or listening to music at the office, it's better to be able to still hear what's going on around you such as traffic or a colleague trying to get your attention. 

Don't worry if these earbuds aren't for you or if you'd rather go for in-ear or over-ear headphones instead. Our collection of the best Black Friday headphone deals has plenty for everyone. Just make sure to act soon because none of these prices will last long.

Why this deal matters

There's no shortage of options when it comes to choosing a new pair of wireless earbuds, but Nothing's offering is certainly different to most. The clear design means you can see the inner workings, while the clean white aesthetic is definitely a vibe. Being able to get the Ear Open with a $60 savings -- by far their biggest discount to date -- just sweetens the deal for people who would rather not go the well-trodden AirPods route.
