The CMF Phone 2 Pro, launched on April 28, 2025, is a new budget smartphone from Carl Pei's Nothing, designed to stand out with its unique aesthetic and competitive features.

Targeting the Indian market, the Phone 2 Pro starts at ₹18,999, making it an attractive option among budget devices.

It boasts a 6.77-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, crucial for high-performance gaming, and a peak brightness of 3,000 nits.

The device is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Pro chip, paired with 8GB of RAM and a robust 5,000mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging.

With its impressive battery life, the Phone 2 Pro can last up to two full days on a single charge, supporting extensive usage for gaming and streaming.

Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the triple-lens camera setup, featuring a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultra-wide shooter.

A standout feature is its modular design, allowing users to customize the phone with various accessories, including new camera lenses for enhanced photography.

Interchangeable back panels further enhance personalization, although the Phone 2 Pro uses screw-on covers for improved water resistance.

Connectivity options include 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and an in-display optical fingerprint scanner, although it lacks NFC and supports only USB 2.0.

Running on Nothing OS 3.2 based on Android 15, the Phone 2 Pro promises three years of OS updates and six years of security patches.

Tech reviews have been positive, highlighting the Phone 2 Pro's value proposition in the budget smartphone segment, especially against competitors.

However, the Phone 2 Pro's sealed back limits compatibility with previous Phone 1 accessories, although it still allows for 3D printed accessories.
