CMF Phone 2 Pro Specs and Features
The CMF Phone 2 Pro retains its unique industrial design as before and Nothing has added a glass-like back cover which provides a dual-tone frosted and sandstone finish that’s bordered by a metallic frame. The Universal rear cover is not only removable but it also serves as a magnetic adapter to attach more accessories.
At 7.8mm thin, this is the slimmest Nothing smartphone yet and it weighs 185g.
The official optional accessories include the wallet and stand add-on, lanyard and interchangeable lenses. However, it appears that only the Lanyard (RM59) is offered at the moment which is now included for free as part of the pre-order promo.
The CMF Phone 2 Pro comes with a 6.77″ flexible AMOLED that pushes a Full HD+ resolution of 2392×1080 pixels, up to 3000 nits peaks of brightness (800nits typical) and 2160Hz PWM dimming.
Under the hood, it gets an upgraded MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Pro 5G chip that claims to offer up to 10% faster CPU and up to 5% graphics improvement compared to the Dimensity 7300 5G on the previous CMF Phone 1. The chip also features MediaTek’s 6th generation NPU that boasts up to 4.8 TOPS of AI computing power.
In the camera department, the CMF Phone 2 Pro now gets a triple-camera setup in the rear which consists of a 50MP (1.157″) main camera, a 50MP (1/2.88″) telephoto camera that offers 2x optical zoom and up to 20x digital zoom and an 8MP (1/4″) ultra-wide-angle shooter. For selfies, the device comes with a 16MP (1/3″) front camera.
Similar to the new Nothing Phone 3(a) series, the new CMF phone also gets an “AI-assisted” Essential Key which allows you to save and manage your favourite things and notes in Essential Space. With a single press, it can screenshot your content and you can long press to record a voice note.
Powering the device is a 5,000mAh battery that’s rated to last up to 2 days on a single charge. It boasts up to 22 hours of YouTube playback.
According to Nothing, the battery will able to sustain over 90% of its battery capacity after 1200 charging cycles. For charging, it supports 33W fast charge and Nothing claims you can get a day’s worth of power with a quick 20-minute top up via USB-C.
In terms of connectivity, it supports 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and now it also includes NFC, a feature which was omitted on the previous CMF Phone 1. It seems that there’s only a single speaker which boasts 150% Ultra Volume. The device has IP54-rated dust and water resistance and out of the box, it runs on Nothing OS 3 that’s based on Android 15.
