CMF Buds 2 and Buds 2 Plus Enter Review Phase: Budget TWS with Premium Features Under Scrutiny

May 22, 2025 | Tech Update: Nothing has expanded its CMF audio lineup with three new true wireless earbuds, and we now have the Buds 2 and Buds 2 Plus in-house for review. Positioned at the entry and premium ends of the new range, these earbuds aim to offer impressive audio performance, active noise cancellation (ANC), and modern design flair, all under a budget-friendly umbrella.

CMF Buds 2

CMF Buds 2: Entry-Level, But Feature-Rich

The CMF Buds 2 may be the cheapest of the trio, but they’re no slouch when it comes to specs. They feature:

  • 11mm PMI drivers, delivering sound tuned by Swedish audio specialists Dirac

  • Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) with up to 48dB noise reduction

  • 6 microphones (3 per bud) for clear calls and ANC performance

  • Design: Available in Light Green, Orange, and Dark Grey, the earbuds come with a rotary dial case—visually inspired by the CMF Buds Pro 2, though non-functional in this version

CMF Buds 2 Plus: Premium Audio with Hi-Res Certification

The Buds 2 Plus is the flagship of the new lineup, featuring a larger and more advanced 12mm LCP driver and support for:

  • LDAC codec and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification

  • Enhanced 50dB ANC, offering even greater noise suppression than the Buds 2

  • A familiar rotary dial case design, but again, only for aesthetics

  • Available in Blue and Light Grey

Common Features Across Both Models

Despite their price differences, the CMF Buds 2 and Buds 2 Plus share several key features:

  • Bluetooth 5.4 with dual device connectivity

  • Low-latency mode for gaming and video streaming

  • IP55 rating for earbuds (splash/dust resistant) and IPX2 for the case

  • Up to 14 hours of continuous playback (likely with ANC off)

What’s Missing?

While the middle-tier CMF Buds 2a is still out of reach for testing, it promises to balance features and price between the two. Hopefully, a review unit arrives soon to complete the picture.

Review Coming Soon

We are currently testing both the CMF Buds 2 and Buds 2 Plus for audio quality, noise cancellation, fit, battery life, and overall performance. Our full reviews will be published shortly, so stay tuned to find out if these stylish new earbuds live up to the hype.
