Nothing, a prominent UK tech brand, is known for consistently introducing innovative products to the market. Since its inception in 2022, Nothing has unveiled a range of cutting-edge devices, including unique Android phones, affordable smartwatches, and high-quality earbuds. Now, the company has launched its first over-the-ear headphones under the CMF brand.
The Headphone Pro marks a significant departure from Nothing’s previous offerings, standing out as a standalone product within the CMF lineup. While the CMF range may lack the premium feel of Nothing’s main line, it exudes its own distinct style, devoid of the transparent casing that typically showcases the inner components of Nothing products.
Despite their somewhat polarizing design, the Headphone Pro headphones received positive feedback during testing. Their aesthetics, although unconventional, garnered attention for their uniqueness. More importantly, the headphones deliver impressive sound quality, earning praise in this aspect.
Featuring tactile and responsive controls, including a rare bass-boost slide button for customized audio experience, the Headphone Pro offers a user-friendly interface. Additional controls for volume adjustment, track selection, ANC activation, and voice assistant integration enhance the overall functionality of the headphones.
The active noise cancellation (ANC) capabilities of the Headphone Pro effectively minimize ambient noise, ensuring an immersive listening experience. While sudden loud noises may occasionally penetrate the ANC, the headphones excel in creating an immersive sound environment, making them suitable for both Android and iOS users.
Remarkably, the Headphone Pro comes at an unexpectedly low price point of £79, available on the Nothing website. Although they may not match the feature set of premium brands like Sony and Bose, the affordability of the Headphone Pro sets them apart in the market, offering a compelling option for budget-conscious consumers.
