The company has dropped the numbers from the names of the earbuds and instead appears to be transitioning to a naming scheme that's more in line with Apple and its AirPods line. This likely means that in a few years, we're going to have Nothing Ear (2026) instead of something cleaner like Ear (4), but thankfully, that doesn't take too much away from the actual products announced today.
