Featuring a transparency mode, the Buds Pro allows you to stay aware of your surroundings. With ANC off, enjoy up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge (or up to 39 hours with the case). The six HD mics and clear voice technology guarantee crystal-clear calls, while IP54 dust and water resistance provide durability.

The distinctive hockey puck-shaped case, available in orange, black, and white, boasts a matte finish, smooth texture, and a shiny chrome hinge. The earbuds, with a long stem and touch surface, offer comfort with soft silicone ear pads.

Powered by a 10mm dynamic driver, supporting SBC and AAC audio codecs via Bluetooth 5.3, and featuring Ultra Bass technology, the Buds Pro deliver a balanced sound. The Nothing X companion app allows customization of the equalizer, gestures, and ANC modes (up to 45 dBA).

With a generous battery life of up to 6.5 hours and a total of 22 to 39 hours with the case, the CMF Buds Pro provide a reliable audio companion. Fast charging ensures 5 hours of operation with just a 10-minute charge. The Pro Buds' exceptional ANC function, supported by three microphones on each side, sets them apart in their price range, making them a must-have for those seeking affordable excellence in wireless earbuds.
