The combo discount brings the total to $97.52, down from a listed $136.79, a roughly 29 percent cut. That undercuts any price the headphones have hit on their own, even though they normally retail for $199. Other color options qualify for the same discount, but they start from a higher base price, so the final total runs higher too.\n\nPairing headphones with a CD to beat the headphones' own solo price says less about generosity and more about how retail bundle math works. It also quietly moves physical copies of an album most listeners are streaming, not spinning.\n\nThe Headphone A launched earlier in 2026 with physical controls, an IP52 water and dust resistance rating, and battery life past five days per charge, a subtler alternative to Nothing's pricier, see-through Headphone 1, and still worth it even if you never open the CD.","[\"nothing\",\"headphones\",\"deals\",\"charli-xcx\"]","2026-10-13T18:33:14.000Z","2026-10-13T20:12:12.365Z","2026-10-13T20:12:15.077Z","published",null,[24,30],{"id":25,"reviewer":26,"round":27,"reason":28,"status":29},"publisher-r1","publisher",1,"The headline claims the deal is \"Half Off\" but the body states the discount is 33 percent, and the dek calls it a \"Music CD\" while the body gives the album title as \"Music, Fashion, Film\" — these internal inconsistencies need to be resolved before publishing.","resolved",{"id":31,"reviewer":32,"round":33,"reason":34,"status":29},"editor-r2","editor",2,"The headline, dek, and body now consistently cite a 33 percent discount, but that figure doesn't reconcile with the stated prices ($136.79 to $97.52 is about a 29 percent reduction) — fix the percentage or the dollar figures so the discount math actually adds up.","deals",[37,38,35,39],"nothing","headphones","charli-xcx",[41],{"name":42,"url":43},"The Verge","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theverge.com\u002Fgadgets\u002F1010384\u002Fnothing-headphone-a-charli-xcx-deal-sale",0,{"sections":46},[47,52,57,62,66,71,76,81,86,91,96,101,106,111],{"name":48,"slug":49,"count":50,"latest_published_at":51},"AI","ai",6990,"2026-10-13T20:09:54.000Z",{"name":53,"slug":54,"count":55,"latest_published_at":56},"Security","security",975,"2026-10-13T21:34:17.000Z",{"name":58,"slug":59,"count":60,"latest_published_at":61},"Policy","policy",504,"2026-10-13T20:36:44.000Z",{"name":63,"slug":35,"count":64,"latest_published_at":65},"Deals",501,"2026-10-13T22:00:00.000Z",{"name":67,"slug":68,"count":69,"latest_published_at":70},"Hardware","hardware",250,"2026-10-13T19:34:34.000Z",{"name":72,"slug":73,"count":74,"latest_published_at":75},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",211,"2026-10-13T20:01:54.000Z",{"name":77,"slug":78,"count":79,"latest_published_at":80},"Science","science",200,"2026-10-13T19:17:42.000Z",{"name":82,"slug":83,"count":84,"latest_published_at":85},"Startups","startups",132,"2026-10-13T21:15:00.000Z",{"name":87,"slug":88,"count":89,"latest_published_at":90},"Software","software",123,"2026-10-13T21:33:43.000Z",{"name":92,"slug":93,"count":94,"latest_published_at":95},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",116,"2026-10-13T16:20:18.000Z",{"name":97,"slug":98,"count":99,"latest_published_at":100},"General","general",76,"2026-10-13T20:42:20.000Z",{"name":102,"slug":103,"count":104,"latest_published_at":105},"Gaming","gaming",65,"2026-10-13T19:00:48.000Z",{"name":107,"slug":108,"count":109,"latest_published_at":110},"Reviews","reviews",36,"2026-10-13T18:00:00.000Z",{"name":112,"slug":113,"count":114,"latest_published_at":115},"How-To","how-to",8,"2026-10-05T09:00:00.000Z"]
