Nothing's CMF Phone 2 Pro: A Budget-Friendly Surprise?
Okay, so remember how everyone was losing their minds waiting for the Nothing Phone 3? Well, Nothing’s CMF sub-brand kind of stole the show and dropped a bit of a surprise on us. They're launching the CMF Phone 2 Pro on April 28th, and it's not your average budget phone. They’re promising some serious upgrades, especially to the camera – which, let’s be honest, was a bit of a weak point in the last model.
This whole thing is a bit of a whirlwind, so let's unpack it together.
The "Pro" Before the "Standard"? A Little Weird, Right?
So, they announced the Pro version first… before even a standard CMF Phone 2. Honestly, who saw that coming? This is a little like that time they released the Nothing Phone (3a) before the actual Phone 3. What gives? Will there even be a regular CMF Phone 2? Your guess is as good as mine! The rumors are swirling, though. We're hearing whispers of a 6.3-inch OLED display, a Dimensity 7400 chipset (a step up from the 7300), and a hefty 5,000mAh battery with 33W charging. But calling this a "Pro" model feels… slightly ambitious for what the specs suggest.
What We (Think We) Know About the CMF Phone 2 Pro
Based on leaks and rumors (because, let’s face it, that’s most of what we’re working with right now), here’s what we're expecting:
- Display: A 6.3-inch OLED, 1080p+, 120Hz. Sounds pretty smooth.
- Processor: MediaTek Dimensity 7400 – a nice little upgrade.
- Battery: 5000mAh with 33W charging. That should get you through the day, hopefully.
- Camera: An improved triple-camera setup. The details are still pretty hush-hush, though. This is what everyone’s most curious about!
- Design: They’re saying a removable back with a fresh textured finish. Interesting choice.
But Wait, There's More! New CMF Buds Too!
It’s not just a new phone. Nothing is also launching three new true wireless earbuds: the CMF Buds 2, Buds 2a, and Buds 2 Plus. After the success of the CMF Buds Pro 2, these are expected to be pretty good value for your money. Specifics? Nope, not yet. We’ll have to wait until April 28th for the full reveal.
The Big Miss: Where's the CMF Watch?
Okay, now for the slightly disappointing news. No new CMF smartwatch. The CMF Watch Pro 2 was a surprisingly popular budget option, so this is a bit of a head-scratcher. Maybe they’re focusing their energy elsewhere for now.
April 28th: The Day We Find Out
The CMF Phone 2 Pro is certainly intriguing – especially the camera upgrades. We're hoping it'll shake up the budget phone market. Pair that with some new earbuds, and April 28th is shaping up to be a big day for Nothing's CMF line. We’ll be watching (and waiting) with bated breath!
