The headphones don't fold, so the choices were either a giant bulky case or a smaller one that utilizes the headband as a handle. The Nothing Headphones (1) have a big bulky case, and comparing the two I see why they went this route.

Folding headphones sound great until the mechanism breaks, which happens more often than on headphones that don't fold.

And nowhere did anyone mention apple products lmao

Or go with the Sony Collexion case style. It’s the same footprint as headphones, protects them and is lightweight

Is it that hard to design a folding headphone? It must be or I guess all these manufacturers wouldn't be avoiding it

Wow, $400. I paid $80 for their CMF Headphone Pro, and they are great and haven't shown any signs of wear in a year. I can't imagine these are more than 4x better.
