Nothing - CMF Buds Pro 2

The nothing ear has absolutely terrible ANC. As a bonus, it amplifies high frequencies such as cutlery and keys clattering, and for some reasons also amplifies cars passing by. All of this in high mode. On a busy street, you're probably better off turning of ANC and just relying in the passive isolation. Transparency mode is also worse than talking with them on with ANC off. Also of it's windy where you live you might as well turn ANC off as it has zero wind detection. Everything else from app to controls iäand sound quality is excellent though. Weirdest past is, cmf buds pro 2/plus both have vastly improved ANC.

CMF Buds Pro 2 has insane bass. Feels like you have powerful low end monster subwoofers playing into your head. Really feels like your head is vibrating.

CMF Buds Pro 2 are hard to beat in their price range and hard if not impossible to beat in the bass department. If you want bass that feels like it's turning your brain into mush, they're the ones.

Hi! This is my first ever post, but I wanted to give a quick and honest review of CMF Buds Pro 2 as an average earphones user. I'm not very knowledgeable in the audio tech bit, so I'm as clueless as can be when asked about specifics. This is MY experience with the earbuds for the while I've had it. **Doesn't mean yours will be the same.** Going onto the review itself: **Sound Quality:** These earbuds have AMAZING sound quality. Bass is amazing for me, you can adjust it to your liking as well in the app - a great perk. I'm a heavy alt/punk listener so this is perfect for me. The sound comes clear, and the instrumentals come out clean and solid. I'd genuinely give it a 10/10 in terms of sound quality when listening. **ANC & Transparency:** PEAK sound cancellation. I use them nonstop when studying, especially at uni or other packed/noisy places and it works amazingly. A bit of sound leaks through, but that's with no music playing. Otherwise, it's amazing. The transparency mode is good! Not as good as the latest apple earbuds, but still solid. Sound comes SLIGHTLY muffled when talking, but you can still hear others fine. I sometimes forget I'm wearing them if I'm not in active conversation, but they are a hindrance if you're talking to someone. **Battery:** This is where it goes downhill. My right earbud stopped charging past 85% after about the 4th month of owning them. This is apparently a (reasonably) common issue to have with these earbuds. I reset the case, placed it back in its case to charge, dusted the charging pins and the actual earbuds - nothing worked. And no, I don't even have LDAC on in the first place. I just accepted my fate at that point. My right earbud, at the time that I'm writing this, charges only till 75% now, and die much quicker than the left one. They still do their job, and last *okay* amount of time (2.5 hrs). I've contacted Nothing for a replacement earbud, even said I'll pay, but nope. You need to buy a whole new one. The playtime for the earphones with nonstop use tends to be 4-6 hrs on full charge (if your earbuds are healthy). **Appearance/Dial:** The case has been confused for a go-pro multiple times. It's actually kind of funny. I find the overall appearance of it very appealing, and lowkey sick. The dial is really nice, but not practical for pocket placement if you have the "long-press" or even just "press" to be any specific command e.g pause/play song. It also makes a much louder noise when you change the volume, than the actual volume of the song playing (could be just a me thing), so I just avoid using it all together. Good fidget tho, I'll give it that!! All in all, for the price point, which is reasonably high in the country I'm in for a broke uni student ($170), they're amazing sound quality, ANC, and bass. The battery life (without the case present on you) is a bit of a disappointment, especially with the faulty right earbud. I'm hesitant about buying them again because the battery of one earbud fucking up seems to be not just a one-off thing. Overall like 7.5/10 because of that. **TL;DR:** Amazing sound quality; clear vocals, good sound, and hard bass. Solid ANC, and good transparency mode. Falls a bit flat when it comes to battery with **earbuds only** (using it till the last drop of charge). Dial is cool, but didn't find it practical. Some come with faulty right earbuds that stop charging past a certain point. (If anyone knows how to fix this, please. That's the only fault I found). Hesitant purchase, but leaning more on would buy again. EDIT: Forgot to say, but the mic is also solid. Hasn't failed me so far, and I've gotten multiple times a comment abt how clear I sound despite it being wireless earphones! It picks up when you talk normal volume, or even lower decently.

personally using them 70% of the AirPods Pro second gen experience, good fit 6h+ of battery life, dual connectivity really good app, as for the sound there are very bass heavy https://preview.redd.it/mxemnovk1klf1.png?width=828&format=png&auto=webp&s=31616653212c82d3cde6bb7a863d70e9f21e670d

I personally I think cmf 2pro have better sound than plus

Cmf Buds pro 2 is good

https://a.co/d/7DgXOUu CMF Buds Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds, Earbuds 60$ and will probably be 45 on prime day. I strongly recommend looking into these. Every high end tech youtuber loved them and for 50$ you are getting $200 airpod quality device. Great ANC and even better sound pass-through. Get this model. The revision in my opinion isnt as premium.

For anyone who might see this, I ended up going with the CMF Buds Pro 2’s. I use them for work and they function perfectly. After the initial manual connection, they pair automatically every time. And all of the physical functions of the earbuds/case work on the A55 (play, pause, skip, etc.). I recommend setting up the earbuds with your phone too to customize some of the functions. Audio is a little muffled compared to my wireless IEMs, but works fine for my use case. :-)

Can't speak for the liberty 4 pros or the liberty 4 NC, but I've owned the buds pro 2 for a while. Luckily, my pair didn't suffer from battery issues like some of them have been known to. So... here's the thing. Buds this cheap? Doesn't matter how much tech-tubers rant about them, they're not perfect products. There's always a compromise somewhere, and you have to be willing to live with it. The CMF Buds Pro 2...? They don't make many compromises... good battery, good sound, I like the ANC and transparency, EQ is present but just okay really. The compromises are that the buds don't feel quite as premium as top-shelf stuff. The finish on the plastic is nice on the outside, but the buds themselves with the sandblast texture feel like they're missing something. There's also nit-picky things, like long holds for ANC, the dial's button being a little tricky to press properly, and you can't pause music from the buds. Single tap doesn't have a function, you have to pause with the dial. Also transparency doesn't feel as open as some other buds, and there's harsh peaks in the mics when you experience loud, high-pitched sounds. The dial is a bit of a deal-breaker for most. It's nice to fidget with, but as a volume control it's a little clunky, and the fact that it's on the edge of the case means I've accidentally knocked it one way or the other while reaching in my pocket, and accidentally pressed the button all the time. It's more fun than function. I like the Buds Pro 2. For the money, they're extraordinary. Apparently the Liberty 4 NC make slightly less compromises, and are more balanced, but don't sound quite as good. Just ask yourself how much you're willing to spend, and evaluate whether what you're buying is worth that money. Take your time, find something you like, wait for a sale.

I’m enjoying the CMF Buds 2 Pro quite a bit; great feature set in terms of transparency and ANC for only $60 or so.

I have the CMF Buds Pro 2 with my Pixel 9 Pro. Works really well!
