Nothing’s sub-brand, CMF, is making waves once again in the Indian smartphone market with the launch of the CMF Phone 2 Pro, the successor to last year’s CMF Phone 1. Priced competitively at ₹18,999, the new smartphone delivers an impressive package of flagship-like features, offering excellent value for money in the mid-range segment.

Stunning AMOLED Display with Flagship Brightness

The CMF Phone 2 Pro flaunts a 6.77-inch full-HD+ AMOLED display that supports a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, delivering an ultra-smooth user experience. With peak brightness reaching an astounding 3,000 nits, users can expect excellent visibility even under direct sunlight. The display is HDR10+ certified, protected by Panda Glass, and offers a 2160Hz PWM frequency for reduced eye strain, along with a 480Hz touch sampling rate for faster response times.

Performance Backed by MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Pro

At its core, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Pro chipset, which brings a 10% CPU boost and a 5% graphics performance upgrade over its predecessor. Coupled with 8GB of RAM (expandable up to 16GB with RAM Booster), the phone ensures seamless multitasking. It runs on Android 15, layered with Nothing OS 3.2, and is guaranteed to receive three years of Android updates and six years of security patches, offering users long-term software support.
