CMF Watch Pro 2: Nothing's New Affordable Smartwatch Boasts Long Battery Life and Xiaomi-Inspired Design
Nothing has unveiled the CMF Watch Pro 2, a budget-friendly smartwatch promising an impressive 46 days of battery life despite featuring an AMOLED display. The new watch boasts a customizable aluminum housing and arrives at a significantly lower price point compared to many competitors.
Deviating from the Apple Watch-inspired design of its predecessor, the CMF Watch Pro 2 sports a circular 1.32-inch AMOLED display (466 x 466 pixels) with a 60 Hz refresh rate and 620 nits peak brightness. A 305 mAh battery powers the watch, housed within a 13.6 mm thick aluminum casing. The inclusion of a digital crown allows for alternative navigation through menus and apps.
Perhaps the most noteworthy feature is the claimed 46-day battery life in power-saving mode. Typical usage is estimated around 11 days, while GPS usage significantly reduces it to 25 hours. Interestingly, the Watch Pro 2 adopts the interchangeable bezel concept previously seen on Xiaomi's Watch S3, with two options available at launch.
The CMF Watch Pro 2 is competitively priced at €69, with an additional €19 for a bezel and strap accessory set. This aggressive pricing strategy, combined with the long battery life and customizable design, makes it an attractive option in the affordable smartwatch market.
