Nothing, the audio brand from OnePlus founder Carl Pei, just updated its Ear 1 true wireless earbuds to include Siri voice support. That makes the inexpensive earbuds a little more competitive with competitors like AirPods and AirPods Pro. After all, the Ear 1 buds already have a lot of premium features.

Nothing Ear (1) true wireless earbuds
The $99 Ear 1 buds rely on an in-ear design. They include active noise cancelation (ANC) with transparency mode. The charging case features Qi-compatible wireless charging and a USB-C port. Not that fast pairing works only on Android devices.
Even though the Ear 1 earbuds cost $150 less than Apple’s AirPods Pro, they boast a bunch of the same features. Those include a premium design, ANC, transparency mode, IPX4 water resistance, and 24 hours of battery life with the charging case. And with the new upgrade, they feature Siri support now, too.
Alexa, play "Nothing Else Matters"
Yeah, it's time to say hey to Google and Siri.
Voice Assistance is now available for your ear (1).

And what’s more on the “plus” side, Nothing’s lightweight buds also feature Bluetooth 5.2 and three microphones per earbud. However, they lack AirPods’ auto-pairing with the H1 chip and some other special Apple features.
You can pick up Nothing’s Ear 1 buds for $99.
