A more affordable sub-brand of Nothing — CMF launched its first neckband alongside new wireless earbuds. With this, the company has added an entirely new category of product under its belt. Like every other product by CMF (and Nothing by extension), the new neckband looks quite interesting. Let’s discuss the CMF Neckband Pro in further detail including its expected price in Nepal.
CMF Neckband Pro Overview
Design and Audio
Design-wise, the CMF Neckband Pro does not have much going on compared to other neckbands at a glance. However, after a closer inspection, you can see that it comes with a smart dial for the controls. You can spin or press this dial to control volume, tracks, as well as ANC. It also comes with IP55 dust and water resistance and ships in Orange, Dark Grey, and Light Grey colours.
You get 13.6 mm drivers coupled with an N52 grade Neodymium magnet powering the audio on this neckband. Moreover, the CMF Neckband Pro comes with a custom diaphragm with titanium plating and polyurethane. You also get copper coils offering enhanced low-frequency performance. With all this hardware coupled with CMF flagship processor, this neckband supports Spatial Audio providing you with a 360° listening experience. Additionally, CMF Neckband Pro is equipped with five mics and Clear Voice Technology giving you a clear calling experience.
