CMF, a sub-brand of London-based tech firm Nothing, has officially confirmed the launch date of its next-generation smartphone — the CMF Phone 2 Pro. Set to be unveiled on April 28 at 6:30 PM IST, this eagerly awaited handset is expected to build on the minimalist yet modular appeal of its predecessor, the CMF Phone 1, launched in September 2023.

But that’s not all. Alongside the new smartphone, CMF will also introduce three new true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds — CMF Buds 2, CMF Buds 2a, and CMF Buds 2 Plus, expanding its portfolio in the budget audio space.

🔍 CMF Phone 2 Pro: Launch Date and Global Debut

Nothing officially confirmed that the CMF Phone 2 Pro will launch globally and in India on April 28, 2025. The virtual event is scheduled for 6:30 PM IST, and it promises to showcase innovation in design and functionality. As the second smartphone in the CMF lineup, the Phone 2 Pro is expected to continue the brand’s emphasis on style, affordability, and customization.

While the company has remained tight-lipped about the phone’s full specifications, early teaser images and leaks have offered glimpses into what’s in store.

📱 CMF Phone 2 Pro: Design and Features (Expected)

The CMF Phone 2 Pro appears to retain some of the signature modular design elements introduced in the original CMF Phone 1. The leaked teaser hints at a matte-finish glossy back panel, complete with visible screws that point towards replaceable or customizable components — an approach that aligns with Nothing’s philosophy of empowering users.

The device will likely sport plastic frames, a feature that helped keep the cost of the CMF Phone 1 low, making it one of the most affordable phones with clean aesthetics and solid build quality.

Key Design Expectations:

• Plastic edges with a modular screw-fit panel

• Matte-gloss hybrid finish

• CMF by Nothing logo branding

• Flat display design with minimal bezels
