Nothing sub-brand CMF has officially expanded its personal audio line-up in Malaysia with two new additions. Now, Malaysians can get their hands on the CMF Buds Neo along with the brand new CMF Clip Pro.
Both devices aim to offer distinct listening experiences at competitive price points. While Buds Neo brings Active Noise Cancellation to the budget in-ear segment, Clip Pro marks the brand’s first venture into open-ear audio.
CMF Buds Neo and Clips Pro pricing and availability
Both audio products are officially available nationwide now. The budget-friendly CMF Buds Neo retails at RM129. You can pick from three colour options: Black, White and Dark Blue.
Meanwhile, the open-ear CMF Clip Pro sits higher up the ladder at RM359. It is offered in Dark Grey, Light Grey and Coral.
In terms of availability, both models can be purchased online via the official Nothing website, Shopee, Lazada and TikTok Shop.
Those who prefer buying in person can find them at the Nothing Image Store as well as authorised retailers including TMT and Urban Republic.
CMF Buds Neo specs and features
CMF Buds Neo features a traditional in-ear design equipped with hybrid Active Noise Cancellation capable of suppressing up to 35 dB of ambient sound.
The system supports three manual intensity levels alongside an adaptive noise-cancelling mode that adjusts to the surrounding environment.
Acoustic performance is driven by 12.4 mm dynamic drivers that utilise a titanium-coated PET diaphragm with a flexible PEEK and PU surround. The earbuds support static spatial audio as well as custom EQ adjustments and two levels of Bass Enhancement via the Nothing X companion app.
For voice clarity during calls, four microphones work in tandem with Clear Voice Technology.
With Active Noise Cancellation disabled, the earbuds provide up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 52 hours when combined with the charging case.
On the other hand, enabling ANC reduces playback to 8 hours on the buds and 30 hours overall. A 10-minute quick charge via USB-C offers up to 5.5 hours of listening time.
While the charging case carries the signature circular dial design that can be spun as a tactile fidget element or used as a lanyard point, it functions purely mechanically and does not contain electronic controls.
Audio playback and noise controls are instead handled directly through the touch sensors on the earbud stems. Other hardware features include Bluetooth 5.4 with Low Latency Mode and dual-device pairing. It also has an IP54 dust and splash resistance rating.
CMF Clips Pro specs and features
CMF Clip Pro are open-ear clip-on wireless earbuds that features a three-point clip structure build around an elastic titanium wire core. Instead of a traditional earbuds design, the Clip Pro rests around your outer ear while keeping the ear canal unblocked.
Each earbud weighs 5.92 grams and carries an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance.
Unlike the Buds Neo, the CMF Clip Pro includes a fully functional rotary Smart Dial built right into its charging case. You can rotate or click this physical dial to change volume, control music playback, manage phone calls and trigger device pairing.
Each earbud also includes its own dedicated physical button for on-the-go adjustments. Audio is delivered through 10.8 mm dual-magnet dynamic drivers paired with a TPU diaphragm and Ultra Bass Technology to compensate for low-frequency sound leakage typical of open-ear form factors.
It also supports the high-resolution LDAC Bluetooth codec alongside Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification. A Private Listening mode is included to reduce sound leakage during calls or general listening.
For voice capture, the Clip Pro packs four HD microphones powered by Clear Voice algorithms.
Battery life is rated at up to 10 hours of continuous use on a single charge and reaches up to 32.5 hours total with the charging case. Plus, a 10-minute USB-C quick charge provides up to four hours of listening.
Additional connectivity highlights include Bluetooth 5.4, dual-device pairing and Low Lag Mode.
