The nothing ear has absolutely terrible ANC. As a bonus, it amplifies high frequencies such as cutlery and keys clattering, and for some reasons also amplifies cars passing by. All of this in high mode. On a busy street, you're probably better off turning of ANC and just relying in the passive isolation. Transparency mode is also worse than talking with them on with ANC off. Also of it's windy where you live you might as well turn ANC off as it has zero wind detection. Everything else from app to controls iäand sound quality is excellent though. Weirdest past is, cmf buds pro 2/plus both have vastly improved ANC.
CMF Buds Pro 2 has insane bass. Feels like you have powerful low end monster subwoofers playing into your head. Really feels like your head is vibrating.
CMF Buds Pro 2 are hard to beat in their price range and hard if not impossible to beat in the bass department. If you want bass that feels like it's turning your brain into mush, they're the ones.
Cmf buds 2 plus or buds pro 2 are simply excellent for their price. I'm using buds 2 plus and couldn't be happier. Anc is decent, sound quality is great along with battery life. I bought them for like 40 bucks though even at their full price they don't have a better competition imo. I'm not sure about nothing ear buds. I have nothing headphone 1 which is a great premium model but their ear buds I don't have any idea.
personally using them 70% of the AirPods Pro second gen experience, good fit 6h+ of battery life, dual connectivity really good app, as for the sound there are very bass heavy https://preview.redd.it/mxemnovk1klf1.png?width=828&format=png&auto=webp&s=31616653212c82d3cde6bb7a863d70e9f21e670d
I personally I think cmf 2pro have better sound than plus
cmf buds pro 2. Cheap, feature packs and bass are heavy as hell!
I’ve tried a few in this range — CMF Buds Pro 2 if you want louder + more fun tuning (dual drivers, good punch) , Moondrop Space Travel 2 if you care more about cleaner “audiophile-ish” sound, KZ TWS (like Z3/Xtra) if you just want raw volume/value, and for something more niche I’d also look at Roseselsa stuff like CERAMICS Ultra or CERAMICS MK2 — more HiFi-style tuning, not the most feature-heavy but sound is pretty solid for the price.
I don't know if I'd say they're the best, but I love the cmf buds pro 2, especially at the price.
I’ve used a few pair but mainly rock Tozo G1, CMF buds Pro and SoundPEATS clear. Mainly I make sure anything I pick up has a gaming mode.
