CMF Buds 2 Plus

About CMF Buds 2 Plus

CMF Buds 2 Plus are value-focused true wireless earbuds from CMF by Nothing. They combine a 12 mm LCP driver, Hi-Res Wireless Audio with LDAC, adaptive hybrid noise cancellation, personalized sound tuning and long battery life at a lower price than Nothing's premium Ear line. The product is aimed at buyers who want stronger audio features without paying flagship-earbud prices, while still getting app-based controls and ecosystem integration through Nothing X.

What are the main audio features?

CMF Buds 2 Plus use a 12 mm LCP driver and support LDAC with Hi-Res Wireless Audio certification. Nothing also includes Personal Sound powered by Audiodo so the earbuds can adjust output based on a hearing test.

The product adds Spatial Audio Effect, Ultra Bass, an equalizer and dual-device connection. These features give buyers more control than a basic budget earbud, although the best sound setting will depend on fit, source device and personal preference. Buyers using lower-quality source files or codecs may not benefit equally from every audio feature.

How strong is the noise cancellation?

Nothing rates the hybrid active noise cancellation at up to 50 dB and describes an ultra-wide cancellation range up to 5400 Hz. Smart Adaptive Mode can adjust the level in real time and compensate for ear-canal leakage.

For calls, the earbuds use six HD microphones, Clear Voice Technology 3.0 and wind-noise reduction. Buyers who make frequent calls should still compare microphone performance in the environments they actually use, because manufacturer claims are measured under controlled conditions.

What battery life does CMF Buds 2 Plus offer?

Nothing states up to 14 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 61.5 hours with the case when using AAC with ANC off. A 10-minute charge is advertised to provide up to 8.5 hours of listening under the stated test conditions.

Battery life will be lower with ANC, higher volume, LDAC and heavy call use. The headline figure is most useful as a best-case comparison point rather than a guarantee, especially for buyers who regularly switch between multiple devices or keep advanced features enabled.

How much do CMF Buds 2 Plus cost?

Pricing checked on September 8, 2026 against Nothing's official US store. CMF Buds 2 Plus were listed at USD 59 during a promotion from USD 69.

Sale pricing and regional availability can change, so buyers should confirm the local Nothing store before purchase. The main value proposition is that the product brings LDAC, personalized audio and strong ANC into a lower price tier than many flagship earbuds.

What are the main trade-offs?

The lower price means buyers should compare build quality, microphone consistency, app polish and long-term support with more expensive earbuds. CMF also competes with many aggressive budget-audio brands, so value depends on whether the Nothing X ecosystem and design are useful to the buyer.

People who already use a Nothing phone may get more value from ecosystem integration than users who only need a standalone Bluetooth earbud. Fit and comfort should also be tested where possible because a secure seal affects bass response and active noise cancellation.

Who should choose something else?

Choose Nothing Ear (3) if premium materials, Super Mic and the main Nothing audio experience matter more than price. Choose another budget earbud if a lower street price or platform-specific integration is more important.

CMF Buds 2 Plus are best for buyers who want feature-rich wireless audio at a mid-budget price and are comfortable using the Nothing X app.
