CMF by Nothing to Launch CMF Phone 1, Watch Pro 2, and Buds Pro 2 on July 8
The Nothing’s sub-brand, CMF by Nothing is set to launch three new products on July 8. The upcoming smartphone ‘CMF Phone 1’ will be accompanied by the CMF Watch Pro 2 and Buds Pro 2. The event will start at 10 AM BST (2:30 PM in India) and will be livestreamed on Nothing’s channel.
Previous teasers have given us a little look of the CMF Phone 1. It will feature a “Nothing Lock” mechanism for special accessories on the back and a rotating dial similar to the one on the CMF Neckband Pro Bluetooth earphones. The first smartphone from the CMF brand is expected to have a 6.67-inch OLED screen with FHD+ resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, Dimensity 7300 chipset, 50MP main camera, and 5000 mAh battery.
Details about the Watch Pro 2 and Buds Pro 2 are still unknown. However, they are expected to come with upgrades over their predecessors. We will likely see more teasers before the launch event.
Earlier, users of Nothing Phones were able to activate the Essential Search Bar by updating the Nothing Launcher to the latest version. While it brought some improvements, a few features were still missing — especially the useful AI Search option.
Actually, it’s from the Nothing Phone (3), which is running the latest Nothing OS 3.5 update and already has all the Essential Search features fully functional.
This new Essential AI Search (Universal Search) allows users to search for anything directly from the home screen or app drawer — no need to open Google Chrome. It shows relevant results, including images, and sometimes gives quick answers in paragraph form. However, in some cases, it may not show images.
Now, older Nothing Phones can also get this feature! We have extracted the APK (installation file) from the new Nothing Phone (3), and it works smoothly on older devices too.
Important:
Before installing the APK, make sure your phone already has Nothing Launcher version 3.3.4 or later.

This small tweak brings the latest smart search experience to older Nothing devices without needing to wait for an official update.
The upcoming Realme 15 Pro 5G has been spotted in a leaked live image, giving us a closer look at its design and features before launch. The image, shared on social media, shows the phone in a stylish Velvet Green color with a leather-like back finish. It also confirms a brand-new camera design.
Instead of the round camera rings seen on previous Realme phones, the 15 Pro features a rectangular camera module. It includes two rear cameras, both with 50MP sensors – one for regular shots and the other for ultrawide photos. However, the phone doesn’t include a telephoto lens, which might be reserved for a more premium 15 Pro Plus model. On the front, there’s a 50MP selfie camera embedded in the display.
The leaked image also reveals some major specifications. The Realme 15 Pro will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. It also includes a huge 7,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging, all packed into a slim 7.69mm thick body.
Realme has already teased several features, especially the display. The phone comes with a curved AMOLED screen offering a 144Hz refresh rate, 6,500 nits peak brightness, and a 94% screen-to-body ratio. The display also supports a 2,500Hz touch sampling rate and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass.
The Realme 15 Pro 5G will run Realme UI 6.0 based on Android 15, and bring new AI-powered features such as:
- AI Edit Genie – edit photos using voice commands
- AI Gaming Coach 2.0 – assist users during gameplay
- AI Ultra Touch Control – enhance gaming touch response
The phone will be available in four colors: Flowing Silver, Silk Purple, Velvet Green, and Silk Pink. It is expected to launch in India on July 24.
