Nothing's First Clip-On Earbuds Launch at $99, CMF New Products Focus on Style and Value
Nothing's sub-brand CMF has launched its brand new Clip Pro open-ear earbuds, now available at a pre-order price of $79 (original price: $99). They will go on sale in the US, UK, and Japan on August 15th, with Europe and other regions following on September 15th. Color options include dark gray, light gray, and coral, maintaining CMF's signature youthful, industrial design language.
🔹 Near-weightless comfort design
Each earbud weighs just 5.9g, featuring an ergonomic three-point clip design that distributes pressure evenly through a flexible titanium wire C-bridge. The skin-friendly material combined with the ultra-light weight makes them ideal for all-day office wear or intense workouts.
🔹 Listening experience that doesn't compromise on sound
The CMF Clip Pro features a 10.8mm dual-magnet dynamic driver with Ultra Bass Technology, designed to compensate for the low-frequency shortfall common in open-ear earbuds. They're also Hi-Res Audio certified, supporting LDAC, AAC, and SBC codecs. For open-ear earbuds at the $79 price point, LDAC support is a standout feature.
🔹 Signature Smart Dial and battery life
CMF has integrated the Smart Dial into the charging case this time. Users can adjust volume, control playback, answer calls, or pair devices via the dial without always having to pull out their phone. In terms of battery life, the earbuds deliver up to 10 hours on a single charge, with a total of 32.5 hours when combined with the charging case. A 10-minute quick charge provides approximately 4 hours of listening time.

The CMF Clip Pro isn't meant to replace noise-canceling earbuds — it's better suited for those who want to enjoy music while staying aware of their surroundings. If you find traditional earbuds uncomfortable during commutes, runs, or long office hours, these clip-style open-ear earbuds are worth checking out. Would you prefer open-ear earbuds that don't block your ears, or in-ear ones with stronger isolation?
