CMF by Nothing Buds Pro 2 Wirelesss earphones with HiFi sound, 50 dB Smart Active Noise Cancellation, 6 HD mics and Spatial Audio - Light Grey

CMF BUDS PRO 2 for under £50 a no Brainer. GET THEM. Phone addiction is a terrible thing. But is worse with a bad ear buds. As you can see I have tried a few cheap brands. That hasn’t worked out well for me. These headphones i.e CMF BUDS PRO 2s are EXCEPTIONAL in comparison to what I have been used to. I went with the orange ones not for MAGA reasons, but because they were the cheapest of the colures available. No discreet phone addiction for me in the office any more. On my old OnePlus 8t the volume halfway up was more than enough to hear my music. The App opens up so many more options for the user. TBH none of my cheap buds ever came with an app. The noise cancellation is so effective. The BASS, THE BASS is next level. I love the preset EQ levels and a great user interface to customise the EQ as well. We all love a review before we buy. So, I was tired of being on the phone with cheaper ear buds (various) and the person on the other end of the line saying you sound muffled, I cant hear you etc. So I search best call quality earbuds. Shout to @Aaron X Loud and Wireless on YT. He put these CMF Buds Pro 2s in category one below the very best. These CMF Pro Bud 2s are in a group with:-Bose QC Earbuds 2024; Jabra Elite 10 Gen 1 and 2; Technics AZ100; Sony LinkBuds Fit & Beats Powerbeats Pro 2. All of which £150 +. Pound for Pound value for money wise these CMF Buds Pro 2 are the best you can get. To round up, the CMF Buds PRO 2 has exceptional call quality, they fit in my ear well with silicone buds of various sizes. The carry case box is functional you can set it up in the app so you can use it to pause music, control volume etc. The battery life is decent a full night of play and they are still going. The product performance and Value For Money kinda of compelled me to write this review. Admittedly my experience with ear buds has been at the lower end of the market. But this as my first really “expensive” set of buds has been a audio revelation for me. If your looking for Buds for your IOS or Android device, just buy these you wont be disappointed.

I’ve been using the CMF Buds Pro 2 for a while now and I’m honestly very impressed. The sound quality is much better than I expected. The bass is deep and strong without being too much, the vocals are clear, and everything sounds balanced. Music, podcasts, and even calls all sound really good. The noise cancellation works surprisingly well. It blocks out background noise like traffic, chatter, or the gym, which makes a big difference. There’s also a transparency mode that lets you hear what’s going on around you without taking them out, which is really handy. Battery life is excellent. I can use them for hours without needing to charge, and the case gives multiple extra charges. I don’t feel like I’m constantly worrying about the battery running low. They’re also very comfortable. They fit securely in my ears and don’t fall out, even when I’m moving around. I can wear them for a long time without them hurting. The app is easy to use and lets you adjust the sound if you want more bass or a different style. The connection is fast and stable — they connect quickly to my phone every time. Overall, I’m genuinely impressed. For the price, these feel premium and perform really well. I would definitely recommend them.

Needing a decent set of buds for a work trip but not wanting to over spend I look3d at a multitude of lower cost options. After seeing the reviews for these I thought give them a chance. Happily surprised at the sound quality and options these offer. Sound quality is really good, great high and mid tones with solid bass. I did find that the left bud kept changing the levels ever so slightly which was a bit annoying. Comfortable to wear for longer periods of time and no issues with fitment but very little difference in ear cup sizes. Noise cancelling is not the best I've used but does a decent job of masking unwanted environment noise. Battery life is good and the case charges buds fairly fast. Decent customisation of taps and long presses but did find it hit and miss to get the to operate when tapping. I like the function dial on the case and having that to be customised too is a bonus. Over all for the money these are a good option if you can get used to the levels changing but this may just be my copy of them.

I don’t normally leave reviews but felt compelled with these headphones - absolutely delighted with them. I have had them for a couple weeks now and have been blown away by the quality for the price. I’ve previously had Cambridge Audio Melomania 1’s (right ear bud broke within a year) and also recently a pair of Sony WF-1000XM4 (battery issues throughout), however I personally think these headphones sound better than either of those two. They’re brilliant quality. Out the box, they’re very easy to setup. The preset EQ is comically bass heavy, but with a bit of time and effort I’ve found the perfect settings for me. The nothing app is fantastic, very intuitive. The sound quality is truly remarkable for ear buds at this price point, they far out performed my expectations and from watching YouTube reviews, it seems I’m not the only one who finds this to be the case. Fit wise, I changed the ear buds to one of the other ones that comes in the box and have found that made them very comfy, I can happily have them in for hours. They’re the comfiest out of all the buds I have had. Call quality, these far out perform the Sony buds I had before which were awful for calls. They’re as clear as you would expect with ear buds, not incredible but very audible. Battery wise, they’ve performed as advertised so far (long may this continue hopefully). I am yet to have Bluetooth connectivity issues with these buds (connected to an iPhone), they’ve been very reliable and when you take them out your ear they’re quick to pause. Noise cancelling wise, I personally think they outperform my previous Sony’s, this may be to do with the fit, but they passed the loud flight test for me recently which is always a great sign. I don’t use the Transparent mode (always found it a strange feeling with any ear buds), I understand that they’re not great for this, but this isn’t a problem for me. My only slight issue is the size of the case, which is fairly large so is noticeable in a pair of jeans - but what I do like about the case is the dial. I thought this was a gimmick, but you do find yourself using it and even when you don’t have the headphones in, it’s a fun little fidget tool and a nice design. Overall, can’t believe how good these headphones are for the price - if you’re on the fence, give them a go. I can see these being my ear bud choice for a long time, especially given the budget pricing of them.

I got these because my old Earfun (award winning buds) are a bit chunky and I wanted change. Also, wireless earbuds have become a bit of an obsession, trying to find the perfect pair (Samsung buds 2, Samsung buds 2 pro etc) At £59 I figured why not give these a go. I am not disappointed, here is the break down: Build quality - Yes these are all plastic, but the case feels solid in the hand and closes with a secure snap. Also I have cats so these buds (and case) have been knocked off plenty of surfaces and they are still going strong. Sound Quality - These buds truly shine here, my previous buds had won What hifi awards, these absolutely blow them out of the water. They also wipe the floor with Samsung Buds 2. The main reason for this is the app which gives you the ability to completely tune the audio experience to your tastes. Out of the box they have Ultra bass turned on, if you like bass heavy music you will absolutely love this, however I found it a bit too much so I turned it off. The most balanced option is the DIRAC opteo combined with Spatial audio. This adds a depth to the music that I hadn’t experienced before, and I absolutely couldn’t go back to bog standard buds now. My Daughter who is a hardcore Apple user tried my buds and reluctantly admitted the sound on these were better than her apple equivalents. Note: when I compare buds I always use the same track to get a fair direct comparison: Etherwood – Taken Away - it serves as a good test as it has good a mix of highs, lows and bass (classical style with an additional rumbling bass). Interestingly when I listened to it on these I discovered additional subtle background sounds I had not noticed before, this gives a good idea of exactly how good the sound is for these budget buds. Fit – if the fit is bad, it doesn’t really matter if the sound is amazing does it? I am glad to say that these are my nicest fitting buds. To explain: The earfun air are quite chunky and while that gives a good seal it also makes them uncomfortable for anything more than an hour. The Samsung Buds 2 are small and light but keep falling out, the Samsung pros are slightly better but also become uncomfortable around the hour mark. However, these are actually a perfect for me, very light and fit solidly (if you select the right silicone tip). I wear at least one bud at work for roughly 6 hours and it doesn’t get uncomfortable. App – The app that accompanies the buds is sleek and very well designed. From the app you can customise the controls on the each bud individually and the case. It also features detailed sound settings ensuring you can tune these to perfection. Noise Cancelling/Transparency – I have had other buds with this feature but often didn’t use it because it chugs battery. With these buds I have actually started using it regularly. It was bit unnerving when I used it the first time on a flight as it completely wiped out the general plane sounds. Far smarter people than me have said it isn’t the best, but I wouldn’t expect that for the price and for me it does the job perfectly. Transparency I don’t tend use as if I need to be aware of my surroundings I will only have one bud in. But I can confirm it works. Controls – This is a weird one, the controls on the buds themselves are a bit meh, they work but nowhere near as slickly as other brands. However, CMF were very very smart to include controls on the case. The round dial can be set up via the app and allows you to pause and restart music by a single press, acts a volume dial by rolling it up and down, multi presses can skip tracks forward or back. For my purposes this is absolutely spot on, as I have the case near my work mouse so I can just reach over and adjust. They also work pretty well in the pocket while walking to and from work. Finally the auto pause when you take either bud out works perfectly, often my boss (or my wife) will start talking to me while I am plugged in, simply removing one bud pauses everything so I can listen, these aren’t always a feature of buds and it is truly appreciated (Samsung buds 2 don’t have this feature). Microphone quality – Again I am very happy with these buds. Both of my old daily buds (Samsung buds 2 and earfun air) had mics but the quality wasn’t great, to the point I would often just switch to my phone rather than try and talk on the buds. These are in a different league, my daughter was actually surprised when I told her I was on the buds not my phone (and she would rather walk over hot coals then say anything nice about non apple kit). These are always clear and usable, however I did try them with my work PC when my main PC headset died, sadly I found that there is something in Windows that lowers the mic quality. Battery – The battery on these are solid, as I often have one bud in at a time I only have to charge the case once a week. I am sure there are better options out there but these fit my requirements. Aftercare – When buying budget aftercare is often where you lose. These buds are produced by CMF who are actually a sub brand of the hugely popular Nothing brand. This means you can actually get support, though I haven’t needed it for these buds I did need to use it for the watch and they were very responsive (sadly the watch isn’t great). Overall I am very happy with these buds, the sound is nothing short of outstanding and the range of including features make these an absolute steal for the price.

Poor. Whilst great design they disconnect themselves and loses bluetooth connection after 30 mins . Very annoying flaw and could not find a fix for. Havind read other online reviews I would appear this is a common occurrence with others. Returned for refund unfortunately

Absolutely the best in ear headphones I had so far and I usually go for skull candies as I like rich basses. They sit in ears comfortably and securely, have beautiful rich bass projection (on several levels of intensity), AI spatial sound enhancement that actually works flawlessly, also they greatly limit outside noise even without digital noise cancellation feature on. There's three sizes of silicone tips to choose from and the app indicates which one works best too. What I absolutely love is the case with programmable function dial, touch buttons on ear pieces are programmable as well. Quality to price ratio is amazing, great value. Battery life is exactly as described. Also they're more comfortable and much more discreet being inside ears than iPods. Calling quality is better than my Shokz bone conduction headpiece. Excellent value, great quality, I couldn't recommend them enough. Another quality product from CMF/Nothing.

--- 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Outstanding Value – CMF Buds Pro Are a Hidden Gem! I’ve been absolutely blown away by the CMF Buds Pro from CMF by Nothing! From the moment I opened the bold, modern red case, I could tell these weren’t just any budget earbuds — they’re premium in both style and performance. The sound is truly impressive. Rich, deep bass, crisp highs, and very clear mids — whether I’m listening to music, watching films, or taking calls, the audio quality is superb. I was especially surprised by how effective the active noise cancellation is at this price point — it really helps shut out distractions and creates a more immersive listening experience. Comfort-wise, they fit snugly and securely without causing ear fatigue, even after hours of use. The sleek case is compact and perfect for carrying in a pocket or bag, and it charges quickly. Battery life is another strong point — I’ve gone days without needing a recharge. Pairing was instant with my phone, and the Bluetooth connection has been rock solid. I also love the thoughtful little design touches like the dot-and-circle pattern on the stems — it gives them a stylish, futuristic look that stands out from the crowd. For the price, these earbuds are unbeatable. CMF Buds Pro deliver performance, design, and features that rival brands costing twice as much. I honestly can’t recommend them enough — a real 5-star experience!
