CMF Phone 2 Pro

A phone with distinct identity targeting the youth

- WORDS GIRISH MALLYA

The CMF Phone 2 Pro, Nothing's second offering in its CMF series, builds on the legacy of the CMF Phone 1, a device that carved a niche in the crowded sub-₹20,000 smartphone market. This clutter-breaking sequel retains the distinctive DNA of its predecessor while elevating the experience with meaningful upgrades. With its bold design, customizable aesthetics, and improved performance, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is a compelling choice for budget-conscious buyers seeking individuality. However, it's not without its quirks, and while it shines in many areas, it still trails behind some competitors in key aspects.

Nothing's CMF series has always been about bold, user-centric design, and the Phone 2 Pro doubles down on this ethos. The signature screw-on back panels, a hallmark of the CMF Phone 1, return with a twist. While the new IP54 rating, offering dust resistance and protection against light rain, marks an improvement over the first generation, it comes at the cost of compatibility with older back panels.
