Hey there! If you’ve been eyeing the CMF by Nothing Watch Pro, wondering whether it’s worth your money, then you’re in the right place.
I spent the last couple of weeks using it daily, and I’m here to share my honest, hands-on experience. Let’s talk design, performance, battery life, and whether it really delivers what it promises.
CMF by Nothing Watch Pro Review: A Bright Star with AMOLED Display and Epic Battery Life
Let’s start with the basics. The CMF Watch Pro doesn’t cost a fortune, but it sure doesn’t look or feel “budget.” From the moment I unboxed it, the large 1.96-inch AMOLED display caught my eye.
It’s bright really bright. With a peak brightness of 600 nits, you can read notifications even in direct sunlight. If you’re familiar with basic smartwatches, you’ll notice this is premium-level tech on your wrist.
The display resolution is 410×502 pixels, boasting crisp visuals. Whether I was flipping through menus or checking my heart rate mid-run, every swipe felt responsive and smooth exactly what we want from a daily companion.
CMF First Impressions Sleek Yet Minimal
The CMF by Nothing Watch Pro instantly stands out with its premium aluminium alloy frame and clean design. The straps feel soft and skin-friendly, making it comfortable even during workouts or overnight wear.
Highlights right out of the box:
- Large 1.96-inch AMOLED display
- Built-in GPS
- IP68 water resistance
- 13-day claimed battery life
- Bluetooth calling support
If you love the minimalist aesthetic Nothing is known for, this smartwatch will definitely catch your eye.
AMOLED Display – Crisp, Bright, and Beautiful
Let’s talk about one of its biggest highlights: the 1.96-inch AMOLED display.
The colors pop beautifully, the text is super sharp, and the 600+ nits brightness makes it easy to read under direct sunlight.
Why AMOLED matters:
- Deep blacks (saves battery)
- Better contrast
- Smooth animations
Even swiping through menus feels fluid, thanks to the responsive touch controls. And yes, Always-On Display is supported, which is a big win at this price point.
Battery Life – Does It Really Last 13 Days?
The brand claims up to 13 days of battery life on a single charge. In my real-world usage:
- With Always-On Display off, GPS occasionally on, and moderate Bluetooth calling, I got around 11 days.
- With heavy usage (AOD on, GPS tracking for workouts daily, and frequent calls), I got 7-8 days.
Still, that’s far better than most AMOLED smartwatches, which often struggle to last more than 4-5 days.
Charging is quick, too about 1.5 hours for a full charge.
Fitness Features: Your Pocket Personal Trainer
Fitness isn’t just about steps. The CMF Watch Pro brings a whopping 110 sports modes, from walking and cricket to Pilates and Crossfit. This is miles ahead of basic trackers that offer only a handful of routines.
Health Tracking Highlights:
- Continuous heart rate monitoring, SpO2 sensor, sleep tracking, and stress tracking.
- Calorie count, steps, and distance are all tracked accurately.
- Automated heart rate: stay updated on your activity intensity.
- Smart notifications for calls, WhatsApp, and more handy for keeping in touch while working out.
Pro Tips:
- The built-in GPS, supporting five satellite systems, lets you leave your phone behind during runs or hikes and still get location-accurate stats.
- IP68 water resistance means pool splashes and sweat are no problem.
Comfort & Build Quality
The watch weighs just 45g (without straps), making it light enough for day-long wear. The silicone straps are sweat-resistant, and the overall build feels solid enough to survive accidental knocks.
The IP68 water resistance rating means it can handle sweat, rain, and even short swims but I wouldn’t take it deep diving.
Things I Liked
Gorgeous AMOLED display & Long battery life (up to 13 days light usage)
Accurate GPS tracking
Bluetooth calling with clear sound
Minimalist, premium design
Things That Could Be Better
No third-party app support
Limited watch face customization
No NFC for payments
Price & Value for Money
The CMF by Nothing Watch Pro offers a lot for its price. If you compare it to other AMOLED smartwatches in this range, it definitely punches above its weight.
Final Conclusion Should You Buy It?
If you want a stylish smartwatch with a vibrant AMOLED screen, long battery life, and reliable fitness tracking, the CMF by Nothing Watch Pro is a fantastic choice for the price.
It’s not perfect especially if you’re looking for advanced app integrations but for everyday use, fitness tracking, and casual calls, it’s a strong contender.
In short:
If you love bright displays, great battery life, and a clean design, go for it. It’s a smartwatch that doesn’t just look good it works hard too.
