Nothing Confirms CMF Headphone Pro and Watch 3 Pro Launch in India
Nothing is getting ready to expand its CMF by Nothing product lineup in India. The company has confirmed that the CMF Headphone Pro and CMF Watch 3 Pro will launch in the Indian market soon. Both products were already introduced in select global markets last year, and India will be the next region to receive them. As of now, Nothing has not revealed the official pricing or exact launch date.
Along with the India launch, Nothing has announced a Community Review Program for the CMF Headphone Pro and CMF Watch 3 Pro. Selected Indian creators (18+) will receive one device as a keeper unit to create reviews for the Nothing Community and social media. Shipping will be free, and applicants must follow NDA and embargo rules. Applications can be submitted via the Nothing Community and close on 7th January at 3 PM IST. Selection is not guaranteed and will be done by Nothing.
Interested creators can fill out the application form via the Nothing Community.
CMF Headphone Pro
The CMF Headphone Pro was first launched globally in September 2025, and the India version is expected to offer the same design and features. The headphones come with physical controls, including an Energy slider that allows users to adjust bass and treble levels. There is also a roller for volume and playback control, along with a customizable button that can be used for ANC control, microphone mute, or AI shortcuts like ChatGPT.
In terms of audio, the CMF Headphone Pro uses a 40mm custom dynamic driver and supports LDAC and Hi-Res audio, with bitrates going up to 990kbps. CMF says the nickel-plated driver coating helps reduce distortion for clearer sound. The headphones also feature Personal Sound tuning powered by Audiodo, which adjusts audio based on the user’s hearing and fit. Spatial Audio is available with Cinema and Concert modes for a more immersive experience.
For noise cancellation, the headphones offer up to 40dB adaptive ANC using three hybrid microphones and ENC technology. According to CMF, this setup can reduce up to 99 percent of background noise. Transparency mode and adaptive filters help adjust sound based on the surrounding environment. Connectivity options include Bluetooth 5.4 with LDAC support, and there is also a low-latency mode for gaming and video playback.
CMF claims the Headphone Pro can deliver up to 100 hours of battery life without ANC and up to 50 hours with ANC enabled. A quick five-minute USB-C charge is said to provide around five hours of playback. The headphones also come with an IPX2 rating for basic water resistance.
CMF Watch 3 Pro
The CMF Watch 3 Pro was launched globally in July 2025 and is now set to arrive in India. It features a 1.43-inch round AMOLED display with a 466×466 resolution, a 60Hz refresh rate, and brightness levels of up to 670 nits. Users get access to more than 120 watch faces, including customizable options.
Health and fitness tracking features include continuous heart-rate monitoring, sleep tracking, blood oxygen level measurement, stress tracking, and menstrual cycle tracking. The smartwatch works with the Nothing X app, which provides detailed fitness data, music controls, and camera shutter support. Gesture controls are also available, allowing users to perform actions using wrist movements.
The Watch 3 Pro supports Bluetooth calling, Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, and dual-band GPS. Additional features include guided breathing exercises, animated warm-up sessions, and built-in ChatGPT access. The smartwatch is powered by a 350mAh battery, which CMF claims can last up to 13 days with normal usage, up to 10 days with heavy use, and around four days with the always-on display enabled.
The CMF Watch 3 Pro comes with a metal body, a silicone strap, and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.
Launch Timeline
Nothing has confirmed that both CMF Headphone Pro and CMF Watch 3 Pro are coming to India, but pricing and availability details are still awaited. More information is expected to be shared closer to the official launch.

Nothing has teased another Pokémon on its official X account and Nothing Community, hinting that a new product could be on the way. This time, the company has shared Kingdra, Pokémon #230 in the National Pokédex.
Kingdra is a Water/Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II. The teaser features the Pokémon alongside a cryptic description about sleeping deep on the ocean floor to build energy and causing tornadoes when it wakes up.
What Could Nothing Be Launching Next?
Nothing has not revealed which product the new Pokémon teaser refers to. However, the company has previously used Pokémon-themed teasers to build anticipation for upcoming devices, making this latest post worth watching.
An audio product, such as new Nothing Ear earbuds or headphones, could be one possibility. A new smartphone or another product category cannot be ruled out either.
For now, the product name, specifications, pricing and launch date remain unknown. More details may emerge through future teasers from the company.

WhatsApp is testing a new shortcut that makes sharing Instagram Reels directly in chats easier. The feature adds a dedicated Reels button to the chat attachment menu, allowing users to quickly find and share Instagram content without navigating through multiple menus.
The feature was spotted in WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.26.42.9 and is currently rolling out to some beta testers.
WhatsApp Adds a Dedicated Reels Button
Previously, users who linked their WhatsApp account to Meta’s Accounts Center could access Instagram Reels through the media picker. However, finding the option required opening the picker and selecting Instagram from the source list.
With the new shortcut, users can tap the Reels button directly from the chat attachment menu to open a dedicated interface for browsing and sharing content.
Recent, Saved and Liked Reels
The new interface includes three tabs:
- Recent: Reels recently watched on Instagram.
- Saved: Reels saved by the user.
- Liked: Reels liked by the user.
Users can browse these sections and select content to share in WhatsApp chats. The interface also reportedly provides access to posts.
Availability
The shortcut requires users to link their WhatsApp account to Meta’s Accounts Center. This integration remains optional, so users who prefer to keep their accounts separate can continue using WhatsApp without connecting them.
The feature is rolling out gradually to Android beta testers through the Google Play Store. WhatsApp has not yet announced when the dedicated Reels shortcut will become available to all users.
