CMF by Nothing is shaking up the audio world again, this time with the launch of its very first over-ear headphones: the CMF Headphone Pro. True to the brand’s ethos, this release blends bold, functional design with features you’d expect from a premium set—all while sporting a surprisingly accessible price tag.
Forget compromises. The Headphone Pro is here to prove that exceptional sound, market-leading battery life, and high-style customization don’t have to break the bank.
The Feature Set That Redefines ‘Pro’
The Headphone Pro is an instant standout in the crowded over-ear market, packing impressive specs into its unique shell:
- Marathon Battery Life: The headline feature is easily the up to 100 hours of listening time (ANC off). Even with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) activated, you still get a staggering 50 hours—enough to power a week of commutes and more. A quick 5-minute charge via USB-C gives you around 4 hours of playback, so downtime is minimal.
- Adaptive Hybrid ANC: With up to 40dB of noise reduction, the hybrid ANC intelligently adapts to your environment, blocking out up to 99% of background noise, ensuring you stay focused on your music or calls.
- Hi-Res Audio with LDAC: Under the hood, custom-built 40mm dynamic drivers with nickel-plated diaphragms deliver rich, precise, and balanced sound. Support for the LDAC codec ensures high-bitrate, high-fidelity wireless streaming.
Design: Style, Tactile Control, and Modular Flair
The Headphone Pro carries CMF’s signature playful-yet-minimalist aesthetic, offered in bold colorways like Light Green, Light Grey, and Dark Grey. But the design goes beyond color:
- Modular Customization: Embrace self-expression with interchangeable ear cushions. Available in additional colors like vibrant Orange, you can swap out the pads to completely remix the look and feel of your headphones.
- Intuitive Tactile Controls: CMF rejects fiddly touch gestures in favor of satisfying, physical control.
- The Roller: A multi-function roller handles volume, playback (press), and ANC toggling (long press).
- The Energy Slider: This innovative physical slider allows you to instantly tweak bass or treble levels on the fly, tailoring the sound to match your mood or genre without opening an app.
- The Button: A customizable shortcut button gives you one-tap access to your favorite feature, such as Spatial Audio modes or an AI assistant.
