Nothing Launches CMF Headphone Pro Headphones, Plans India-Based CMF Subsidiary

CMF, the budget tech brand owned by Nothing, has launched its first over-ear wireless headphones, the Headphone Pro, featuring a modular design with interchangeable ear cushions available in dark grey, light grey, and light green. These headphones boast 40mm custom drivers, Hybrid Adaptive ANC capable of reducing noise by up to 40dB, and up to 100 hours of battery life, along with support for LDAC Hi-Res audio codec and tactile physical controls including an Energy Slider for real-time sound customization. The headphones also include a customizable Action Button and support Spatial Audio with Concert and Cinema modes, controlled via the Nothing X app, providing good sound quality and strong noise isolation. CMF Headphone Pro represents CMF's entry into the headphone category, emphasizing bold styling and affordability enabled by technology trickle-down from its parent brand. Additionally, Nothing has announced that CMF will become an independent subsidiary based in India, consolidating operations, R&D, and manufacturing there, while aiming to maintain its design-led, affordable product vision. This move is coupled with a manufacturing partnership with Indian company Optiemus Infracom, positioning India as the production hub for Nothing and CMF products.
