The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/786552\/cmf-headphone-pro-nothing-anc-energy-slider-volume-wheel\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CMF Headphone Pro<\/a> \u2014 the company\u2019s first pair of over-ear wireless headphones \u2014 fit precisely in that lane, especially now that they\u2019re on sale at Amazon in both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/CMF-Headphone-Canceling-Headphones-Bluetooth\/dp\/B0FLKC5JN4\/?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">light gray<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/CMF-Headphone-Canceling-Headphones-Bluetooth\/dp\/B0FLK83CMY\/?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">subtle green<\/a> shade for an all-time low of $69 ($30 off).<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Although the Headphone Pro eschew the retro-transparent design found on Nothing wares like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/headphone-review\/695609\/nothing-headphone-1-review\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Headphone 1<\/a>, I wouldn\u2019t necessarily say that\u2019s a bad thing given the polarizing, squared-off design of the latter. Instead, the Pro go all in on the curves, with circular earcups, cushions, and a plush headband. You can also add an additional pop of color with <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=1025X1701640&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fus.nothing.tech%2Fproducts%2Fcmf-headphone-pro-ear-cushions%3FColour%3DLight%2BGreen\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CMF\u2019s $25 interchangeable cushions<\/a>, which, as of now, are available in either orange or the aforementioned green hue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Unlike many premium pairs of noise-canceling headphones, the Pro ditch touch-capacitive controls for physical buttons \u2014 a plus, as far as I\u2019m concerned \u2014 allowing you to control playback, adjust the volume, and tweak a range of other settings using a customizable action button and a multi-function roller. Nothing also includes something called an Energy Slider, so you can adjust the treble and bass balance on the fly without digging into Nothing\u2019s app to make EQ adjustments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The biggest draw of the Headphone Pro, aside from their adaptive ANC, is that they offer a whopping 100 hours of battery life per charge, ensuring you can travel just about anywhere without having to top them off. That number drops to 50 hours with active noise cancellation enabled; however, that\u2019s still 10 hours more than what you\u2019d get with a higher-end pair like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/hands-on\/667017\/sony-wh-1000xm6-hands-on\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sony\u2019s WH-1000XM6<\/a> and 20 hours more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/772496\/bose-quietcomfort-ultra-anc-wireless-headphones-second-generation-usb-c\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the latest Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones<\/a>. The fact that they support Google Fast Pair and the higher-quality LDAC codec is just a plus.<\/p>\n<p>Other alternatives to consider<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Over the past several years, Nothing\u2019s budget-centric subsidiary, CMF, has built a reputation for producing attractive, inexpensive products&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":387419,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[868,356,5702,111,139,69,145,87017],"class_list":{"0":"post-387418","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-deals","9":"tag-gadgets","10":"tag-headphones","11":"tag-new-zealand","12":"tag-newzealand","13":"tag-nz","14":"tag-technology","15":"tag-verge-shopping"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/387418","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=387418"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/387418\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/387419"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387418"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=387418"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=387418"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
