CMF by Nothing Headphones

Nothing's budget sub-brand packs the Buds Pro 2 with an 11mm woofer plus 6mm tweeter per side, LDAC, 50dB adaptive ANC, a spatial audio mode, and the party trick: a Smart Dial on the case that twists to adjust volume or toggle modes. The Nothing X app is one of the best in budget audio, with genuinely useful EQ control. Reality checks from owners: the ANC is good-not-great against voices, the spatial audio effect sounds diffuse and most people turn it off, LDAC disables dual-device connection, and the case — while the buds themselves are IP55 — is bare plastic that scuffs quickly. Mics get shouty in wind. Battery runs 6.5 hours with ANC on and 43 total. The price yo-yos between $37 sales and $59 regular, and at the low end these embarrass buds twice the price.
