CMF by Nothing Launches $99 Headphone Pro,prioritizing Battery Life and Modular Design
NEW YORK,NY – CMF by Nothing has released its Headphone Pro,over-ear headphones priced at $99,aiming to disrupt the budget headphone market with a focus on extended battery life and unique features like modular earcups. the launch offers a more affordable choice to nothing’s premium Headphone 1,while still incorporating the brand’s distinctive design elements.
The CMF Headphone Pro boasts a compelling package for its price point, offering a step up from older budget or midrange earbuds, particularly in active noise cancellation (ANC). While not reaching the performance level of industry leaders like Bose’s QuietComfort Ultra, the headphones provide a “decent listening experience” with both passive and active noise cancelling, even in noisy environments like New York City streets and trains, according to Gizmodo’s review.
Battery life is a key selling point, tho specific figures weren’t detailed in the review. The headphones also feature app-enabled software, including spatial modes – Concert Mode and Cinema Mode. though,the review found Concert Mode’s effect minimal,and Cinema Mode actively degrades audio quality,sounding as if content is being played “inside a person-sized tin can.”
CMF’s Headphone Pro incorporates a modular design, allowing for customization with swappable earcups. The headphones also include a unique energy slider, though its practical use remains to be seen. While the build quality relies on plastic, the overall package presents a strong value proposition for consumers seeking a feature-rich headphone experience without a premium price tag.The reviewer notes that for $99, the headphones deliver better sound and battery life than typically expected at that price point.
