Three inexpensive alternatives to Samsung and Apple (watch, ear buds and phone)

Three inexpensive alternatives to Samsung and Apple (watch, ear buds and phone)

By LeftFooted | Cars & tech | 8 Jul 2024


Nothing is one of my favourite tech brands. And I've recently found out they also have a sub-brand called CMF.


CMF has launched a new phone, called Phone 1, a new pair of ear buds, called Buds Pro 2 and a new smartwatch called Watch Pro 2.


As per usual, just like they do with Nothing, CMF prioritises style and design and, in this case, budget.


Phone 1 is loosely the same as Nothing Phone (2a).

It has a 50MP camera and a 16MP selfie camera, it runs on Nothing OS with an 8-core processor and 16GB of RAM.

As for the watch, well I don't really like smartwatches, never used one, but I guess the only thing I can say it is does look good. I do like the Ear Buds too, which feature Wind Noise cancellation, which is pretty rare at this price point.

Speaking of which, prices are quite low.

The phone starts at $199 in the US, £209 GBP in the UK and €239 in the EU.

The watch goes for $69/£69 GBP/€69 EUR the Buds go for $59/£59/€59.
