Wow finally a new invention that make a concern for the charging case. Normally after buds had been take out, we put aside the case. Now it funtional for portable option device is quite impressive. Nicely done invention, congratz.
I would have loved a clearer conclusion who is best in terms of sound quality. Also I would have loved a comparison to its predecessor, the CMF Buds Pro. I recently returned the Buds and the Buds Pro have been considered more or less the same in terms of sound quality.
Just got the Pro 2 in and they sound nothing like the Buds Pro....massive bass and bass bloat compared to the older Pro. It is better if you turn off the default Ultra Bass boost, but the overall sound is still shouty and lacks clarity. The simplified EQ makes it hard to adjust compared to a 10 band EQ. Aaron mentions the bass, but I was not prepared for how overpowering it was. It does not really compare to any of the previous CMF/Nothing buds I have used.
@@ggroch I was referring to the previous pro, the update improved some details... I use it balanced and the noise cancellation level on medium... I like the sound
Feedback on the color-grade and Shadows/Highlights adjustments of this video: It looks like you've lifted the shadows so much that the parts that were supposed to be darker aren't actually dark like the buds and their case. Plus, the color-grade done for the shadows is very weird, it' making the CMF Buds look sort of dark green.
Hi, great detailed review as always, Aaron! Thank you! Quick question: Can the case dial mute and unmute during calls? Great use case when using it during Teams call at work. Imagine having dedicated controls for your headset on top of your table!
It's a shame that this item hasn't been officially released in Indonesia even though I'm interested in the design of these earbuds rather than the Liberty 4 NC😥
I know this is an older episode but I've heard that the voice prompts on the CMF buds pro 2s are very loud and there's no way of changing it. Is that true? Thanks Aaron and anyone who could answer this. 🤔🙂
after I watched this video, it does look like that the CMF Buds Pro 2 are even better than the Nothing Ear (lol) which sounds a bit confusing bc the Ears are about 80$ more expensive. Does someone think the same as me or is it just me haha😂. Is there a chance that these features are coming to the Ears as well or is this not needed?
xiaomi redmi buds 5 pro the 52db of anc does it cancel out sound better than the nothing ear 45db anc? and which one has the better transperancy mode because I've heard people saying the transperancy mode on the nothing ear is bad
Transparency of ear a has gotten much better now. dont take much stock in db claims. Companies have been doing it for years and it only tells part of the story.
Which one is best to buy nothing or cmf? Both good but if choose one? Gaming and latency wise which one is good and include test of gaming latency too.
@@aaronloudnwireless can you share a screenshot or something so that i can see and understand of that equalizer setting. I m actually planning to buy one and i am confused between real me buds air 5 pro and cmf buds pro 3.
Блин, какой крутой обзор. Именно такой вопрос стоял, что брать, какие у них отличия. Это видео хорошо раскрывает данные темы. Хотелось бы больше сравнения звука, в общем ролике, а не отдельно за деньги, хотябы какой-то трек секунд на 10. Спасибо за видео 😊
@@smbrx ну говорит по качеству звука cmf от ear (A) отличается незначительно и из-за цены и наличие функционального кейса отдаёт предпочтение cmf. Но если не учитывать деньги, что взял бы ear с керамическим драйвером. Я себе всё равно ear (A) заказал. Очень необычно выглядят, небольшой кейс и мне не нужен продвинутый органайзер. В общем и целом бери что понравилось, будешь доволен) На 8:34 сравнение звука, сравни сам
Hey Aaron you are my favorite headphones reviewer. What phone are you using to test the microphone quality on? I have an iPhone so I was wondering what it sounds like on an iPhone. Just don’t want to buy this if it doesn’t sound like this with an iPhone. I’m thinking of grabbing a nothing ear as a back up & because it’s budget friendly. Need clear calls because it’s really noisy during my dialysis treatments
@1FontaineCreaturae yes but the default tuning plays a large part on how much EQing will work. Also cmf buds seem to be muddy bass unlike nothing ear tuning. They don't even provide 10 bands EQ in the official app
How is transparency when compared to liberty 4 nc? I've just bought them couple days ago and anc is great but transparency is disappointing so I'm thinking of returning them
i am SO sad that the buds pro 2 dont have wireless charging... come ON man i dont wanna plug it in and out every day I already do that with my phone. it's the only reason i still use airpods pro gen 1 on a pixel daily driver... ugghhhhhh
Without lying, I don't like Nothing and its derivatives, but, I have to admit that the Nothing Earbuds have quite good microphone in phone calls in noisy environments, in any case much better than the Airpods Pro, and this case is really functional, even if, it would have been easier to have the same gestures as the Huawei Freebuds Pro 3, Pixel Buds Pro or OnePlus Buds 3 directly on the earbuds 🤷🏽♂️
From your sound samples...these cmf pro 2s might be the buds ive been looking for. My liberty 3 pros lack rumbling bass and volume. And my buds fe lack crisp highs and need alittle more volume. Hope the cfms get loud.
@@petermurage8685 i wish that was the case. Use the lp3s on both my s23 ultra and note 20 ultra using poweramp. Also tried other music players to see if it was the mp3 player. My samsung buds fe have a deeper sub rumbling bass than the lp3s. The lp3s have bass, but its not the sub low rumbling type. Lp3s bass is good for electronic music, but not so much for rap or hip hop. Tried different eartip and wing sizes...same result. Yea..i know rumbling bass isnt considered audiophile quality...but i like it. Wish flagship phones still had headphone jacks...tws just dont compare with wired, especially if u use a headphone amp with them.
@@MikeJones-dh1jo ooh. I get you. I know the bass you are looking for. Have you tried Soundcore Sport X10 or x20? Or grab the Skullcandy crusher evo with a Sony phone. Tried the Evo with Sony xperia 10V and the bass almost made me implode
Hi Aaron. Please help me here. I am looking to replace my liberty 4 but I cant find anything under $200 that has Head-tracking. I would appreciate any help
Good video Bro i got these buds yesterday Everything is good But right side buds discharge 5% faster than left one I.e if left one is 95% and right one show 90% .... Is this happen with your unit... Plz reply me...
I returned my ear (2024) due to their heavy sound leakage, my seat neighbor in a train could easily listen music with me using them. How are the cmf when it comes to isolation/leakage?
Nearly an instant-buy for me. But they say the battery life is 4.5h with ANC on. If that were true it would be just ok for a budget pair. However the Ear (2) I believe had similar time estimate, and I can’t even get 2 hours from it. It’s usually dead before I leave the gym and start work😮 a complete deal breaker on an otherwise amazing pair.
Sorry to say. I bought the phone, buds pro 2 and the watch to have a set. The watch software is not quite good, but OK in later versions maybe they fix the issues. The buds pro 2 were horrible. Due to the noise cancellation the right bud makes waterfall noises what caused headache. The contact to the support is really hard, they always want so much informations like serial number, version, order number and so on and so forth. With many struggle and 8 to 9 mails they wanted to send me and exchange label which is not working, so I gave up trying to get help from nothing. Now I know why the company name is nothing. I would recommend no-one to buy phones or any other devices.
The qyc melobuds pro, are even better! And at a much better price. They even offer LDAC! Dual connection, low-latency mode. Smaller case, better battery life and much more. I got it for less then 30$ after tax! Please review those! Btw amazing, truly amazing work.
DUDE !! i have used them all and clearly cmf buds 1 and 2 both sound soo bloated and dark . Instead of cmf you could have compared it with realme air 6 pro or oppo enco air . btw apart from cmf the nothing ear buds are way more better.
Please should me upgrade from anker liberty 3 pro to jabra elite 10 or no please i need your help cuz i trust you .. tell me what i will get if i upgrade to jabra
No one is talking about the connectivity with windows, how the noise cancellation works in that, MS teams, GMeets. Looking forward like these type of reviews
To my experience you could refer to Aaron's sound quality for MS Team meeting on Windows/Mac device with default suppresion on, I find it very similar. But if you put suppression on heavy, it's another story.
@@PhiBoo. thanks for info. Actually I bought and used in teams call. Input of voice delivering clear to others while in avg noisy environment. Needs to check on noisy environment.
CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing. 😮

Why do they need a sub brand?

Thanks for posting this video
nice video. i liked how you reduced the video frame rate @ 5:04 similar to the sample rate of the decibel meter
Which is better in your opinion cmf buds pro 2 or ear 2 (2023)?
buds pro 2 has insane value
The Teenage Engineering design is waay too tempting
NICE Explanation.
my birthday is coming I might buy the nothing ear thanks for the review!
The scroll button basically does majority of what the JBL live beam 3 screens do

Still can't decide which one to buy
Which is best to buy cmf buds 2 pro or ralme buds air 6?
Which of these buds are better for small ears?
How is the noise-cancelling better than their flagship nothing ear (2). I'm surprised.
Should i switch from between 3anc’s to the CMF’s?

Tough choice. I like both. If i had more money to spend, definitely the Nothing cause of advanced eq. Might do a latency test when workload eases.
