CMF has introduced the Buds Neo, a new pair of affordable wireless earbuds designed for everyday use with active noise cancellation and long battery life.
The earbuds feature 12.4mm dynamic drivers with titanium-coated PET domes and PEEK + PU surrounds, delivering a rich sound experience.
They support static spatial audio and come with six EQ presets, including Pop, Rock, Electronic, Classical, and Enhance Vocals.
Users can create custom EQ profiles through the Nothing X app, and Bass Enhancement offers two additional levels for stronger low-end output.
ANC and battery life
The Buds Neo offer up to 35dB of Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) across three levels, with Adaptive ANC that adjusts based on the environment.
For calls, four HD microphones (two on each earbud) work with Clear Voice Technology to enhance voice clarity.
Battery life reaches up to 52 hours with ANC off, including the charging case, and each earbud provides up to 11 hours of playback.
With ANC enabled, total listening time drops to 30 hours. A 10-minute charge delivers up to 5.5 hours of playback.
The earbuds and case have 45mAh and 460mAh batteries, respectively.
Design and connectivity
The Buds Neo feature a square charging case with a tactile circular dial and a dual-tone design, plus a built-in lanyard hole.
They support Bluetooth 6.0, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a 120ms low-latency gaming mode.
Touch controls can be customized via the Nothing X app, and the earbuds are compatible with Android 6.0+ and iOS 13+.
Price and availability
CMF Buds Neo are available in Black, White, and Dark Blue at an exclusive launch price of Rs 1,999 (~$21).
They will go on sale in India from August 26 through Flipkart, Croma, Reliance Digital, and Vijay Sales.
