Nothing‘s sub-brand CMF has also unveiled new true wireless noise-cancelling headphones, the CMF Buds Pro 2. This time around, they’re launching globally, targeting the United States, United Kingdom, India, and Europe. The design retains the color options of orange, dark gray, and light gray from the first generation, but adds a new vibrant blue option. More importantly, the Pro version finally gets the smart knob charging case that the standard CMF Buds had last year.
Users have the option of disabling the knob controls if they want
The lightweight case features a rotating knob for volume control, with the ability to customize functions like noise cancellation mode, music playback, and song navigation. It can also activate the voice assistant, answer/end calls, mute the microphone, and toggle low latency mode. Users have the option to permanently disable the knob to prevent accidental touches, and all settings can be managed through the Nothing X app.
The CMF Buds Pro 2 boasts a dual-unit system with an 11mm woofer and a 6mm tweeter. These headphones support hybrid active noise cancellation and transparency mode, and are Hi-Res Audio certified with spatial audio capabilities. Bass performance can be further personalized through the Nothing X app. For crystal-clear calls, each earbud comes equipped with three microphones and Nothing’s Clear Voice Technology 2.0 for call noise reduction.
Battery life is impressive, with 60mAh batteries in each earbud and a 460mAh battery in the charging case. Official figures show talk time ranging from 18.6 hours to 25 hours (with charging case) depending on noise cancellation settings and audio encoding. Playback time varies as well, offering up to 43 hours (with charging case) with noise cancellation off and AAC encoding. Fast charging provides 3 hours of listening time (noise cancellation off) with just a 10-minute charge, extending to 7 hours with the charging case. With noise cancellation on, those numbers drop to 1.8 hours and 6 hours respectively.
The CMF Buds Pro 2 are positioned as a cost-effective option in the true wireless noise-cancelling headphone market. They’ll be available later this month through the official website (cmf.tech) and other retailers, with a price tag of US$59 (around 430 Yuan) in the US market.
