CMF, a sub-brand of Nothing, has officially entered the premium over-ear audio space with the launch of its first wireless headphones — the CMF Headphone Pro. Designed for audiophiles and everyday listeners alike, the new model blends long-lasting battery life, immersive sound, and unique customisation features to stand out in an increasingly crowded headphone market.

Price and Availability

The CMF Headphone Pro has been priced competitively at $99 (approx. ₹8,000) in the US, EUR 99 (around ₹10,000) in Europe, and GBP 79 (about ₹9,420) in the UK. The headphones are available in three stylish colour options — Dark Grey, Light Green, and Light Grey.

CMF confirmed that the headphones will go on sale immediately in the UK and EU, while customers in the US will have to wait until October 7. Sales will be conducted through the official Nothing website and select retail partners. Availability for India and other global markets is yet to be announced, but considering CMF’s growing presence, a wider rollout is expected soon.

Design and Build

One of the unique aspects of the CMF Headphone Pro is its interchangeable ear cushions, giving users a chance to not only refresh the look of their headphones but also tune comfort and sound profiles to personal preferences. Available in Light Green and Orange shades, these cushions make the headphones more versatile for long-term use.

The headphones feature a Roller dial for volume control, ANC toggle, and media playback. Alongside this, an Energy Slider lets listeners fine-tune bass and treble levels instantly, offering more control over sound output. CMF also includes a customisable button for quick access to advanced functions such as Spatial Audio or AI assistant activation.

Features and Technology

The CMF Headphone Pro isn’t just about style — it comes loaded with flagship-level features:

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC): Capable of reducing up to 40dB of external noise with Hybrid ANC, offering three adjustable levels for different environments.

40mm Dynamic Drivers: Equipped with nickel-plated diaphragms, a 16.5mm copper voice coil, and a dual-chamber design, the drivers promise reduced distortion and enhanced clarity across all frequencies.

Hi-Res Audio Certification: Supports LDAC codec alongside SBC, ensuring high-resolution audio playback.

Personal Sound Profile: Users can customise audio through the Nothing X app, tailoring output based on hearing preferences.

Battery Life and Charging

Battery life is another standout highlight of the CMF Headphone Pro. The company claims up to 100 hours of continuous playback and 50 hours of talk time on a single charge. With ANC enabled, the playback time is reduced to a still-impressive 50 hours.

The headphones feature USB Type-C connectivity, supporting both audio playback and charging. A five-minute quick charge is enough to provide up to five hours of playback, while a full charge reportedly takes about two hours.

Connectivity and Controls

The headphones support Bluetooth with LDAC for high-quality wireless audio and can also be managed through the Nothing X app, which allows users to customise controls, adjust ANC, and enable Spatial Audio.

In addition, the six-microphone setup with beamforming technology enhances voice clarity during calls by minimising background noise, making them practical for professionals as well.

Conclusion

The CMF Headphone Pro combines an impressive 100-hour battery life, customisable design, and advanced ANC in an affordable package that could redefine expectations in the mid-range wireless headphone market. With unique features like the Energy Slider, swappable cushions, and Spatial Audio integration, CMF has crafted a product that balances both functionality and style.

While its India launch timeline is yet to be confirmed, the CMF Headphone Pro has the potential to disrupt the wireless audio space, offering premium-level features at an accessible price.
