CMF by Nothing announces its debut over-ear headphones, the Headphone Pro, set for release on September 29, 2025. The launch marks the sub-brand’s expansion into premium audio accessories with innovative design elements.
Customizable Modular Construction
The standout feature is the interchangeable earcup system, enabling users to swap components for personalization or replacement. This modular approach supports sustainability while offering aesthetic flexibility rarely seen in traditional headphone designs. Users can potentially modify their audio experience through different earcup configurations.
Distinctive Control Interface
The headphones incorporate standard controls including power button, volume slider, USB-C charging connectivity, and LED status indicators. However, the most intriguing addition is the mysterious “energy slider” – a unique control whose specific function remains undisclosed by CMF. Industry experts speculate this could regulate bass enhancement, equalizer settings, or audio processing modes.
Vibrant Color Selection
Three bold color options will be available: Orange, Gray, and Green, reflecting CMF’s commitment to striking visual design that distinguishes their products from conventional black or white alternatives commonly found in the market.
Strategic Market Position
This launch represents Nothing’s strategic entry into the competitive over-ear headphone segment through its CMF subsidiary. The combination of modular design, unique controls, and bold aesthetics positions the Headphone Pro to appeal to younger consumers seeking both functionality and style.
The September 29 debut will reveal complete specifications, pricing details, and clarification of the energy slider functionality. If successful, the Headphone Pro could establish CMF as a serious contender in the premium audio accessory market while maintaining Nothing’s reputation for innovative, user-centric design philosophy.
