Nothing announces new CMF Phone 2 Pro phone and earbuds, but forgets its best product

News Room


  • Nothing just teased gadgets in its CMF sub-brand
  • The highlight is the CMF Phone 2 Pro
  • We’re also getting new CMF Buds 2, Buds 2a, and Buds 2 Plus

Nothing announced it will soon reveal the CMF Phone 2 Pro alongside the new CMF Buds 2, Buds 2a, and Buds 2 Plus. However, it leaves us more confused than ever about its other release plans and with one big question: where’s the new watch?

In an email we received and in a post on social media, Nothing revealed that on April 28, 2025, at 9 am ET / 2 pm BST / 11 pm AEST, itā€™ll showcase the four devices under its CMF brand.

CMF gadgets ā€“ which stands for Color, Material, and Finish ā€“ are usually more budget-friendly by skimping on some high-end specs without compromising Nothingā€™s design standards.

What makes this reveal kinda weird is Nothing yet again has skipped the base model ā€“ just like it recently did by releasing the Phone 3a and 3a Pro before even announcing the regular Phone 3. In this instance, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is coming out before the CMF Phone 2 got a regular model, and before the CMF Phone 1 could get a Pro.

It also didnā€™t tease a new CMF Watch. The CMF Watch Pro 2 was showcased alongside its phone and earbuds last year, and while it wasnā€™t the perfect smart watch, it was an excellent budget pick. Weā€™re disappointed it doesn’t look to be getting a follow-up for now.

CMF Phone 2 Pro camera upgrade incoming?

Enough focusing on the tech we didnā€™t see, however. Letā€™s focus on the announcements we did get.

Beyond the names, thereā€™s not a lot to go on, but we think Nothing has at least teased a camera upgrade for its upcoming CMF Phone 2 Pro.

Thatā€™s based on a section of the short video clip it shared with the announcement. In it, four circles appear ā€“ two identical gray ones stacked above each other ā€“ and to the left of them, a smaller gray one above an even smaller orange dot.

This looks a lot like the classic three-camera array youā€™ll find on the back of any self-respecting Pro-tier smartphone ā€“ usually a main, ultra-wide, and Telephoto lens setup.

The rest of the clip just simply spells out ā€˜Phoneā€™ in dots before flashing ā€˜Phone 2 Proā€™ onscreen, followed by the April 27, 2025, reveal date, and finally showing ‘CMF by Nothing’. So we donā€™t get any more tech teases, but we expect Nothing will provide a few more teases in the run-up to the announcement.

An announcement that isnā€™t too far away. So we wonā€™t be left in the dark about the latest Nothing release for much longer ā€“ and as soon as it showcases the new tech, you can be sure weā€™ll be ready to tell you all about it.
