Our Verdict

Status Between Pro True Wireless

Nothing Ear (stick)

The Status Between Pro True Wireless are better earbuds than the Nothing Ear (stick). Status' buds have better stability, better passive noise isolation performance, and longer continuous battery life. Status' buds also have a better-balanced mid-range, which helps ensure the accurate reproduction of vocals and instruments. However, the Nothing in-ears have a graphic EQ that lets you change their sound. They're also more comfortable.
