Nothing is set to launch its second budget smartphone, the CMF Phone 2 Pro, in India today, April 28, at 6:30 PM IST. The launch event will be streamed live on the official CMF by Nothing social media channels and YouTube. Fans and tech enthusiasts can watch the event via the livestream link provided by the company.
The CMF Phone 2 Pro follows the brand’s first foray into budget smartphones, the CMF Phone 1, which was introduced in 2024. While the CMF Phone 1 made its mark with a unique design and affordable pricing, the new model promises significant upgrades. The “Pro” label hints at improved features, although the full details remain mostly under wraps. Interestingly, some reports suggest that the CMF Phone 2 could also make an appearance at the event, though it is not confirmed yet.
CMF Phone 2 Pro: Price in India (Expected)
Leaks suggest that the CMF Phone 2 Pro will likely be priced around Rs. 20,000, similar to the CMF Phone 1, which debuted at Rs. 15,999 in India. The addition of the “Pro” label may account for a slight price hike, but the phone is expected to remain under Rs. 20,000. If priced higher, it could overlap with the upcoming Nothing Phone 3a.
