CMF Watch 3 Pro: First Impressions of Nothing’s Stylish & Affordable smartwatch
The CMF Watch 3 Pro has arrived for testing, and initial impressions are strong. It embodies the spirit of nothing’s CMF sub-brand: thoughtful design, solid performance, and a surprisingly accessible price point. In fact, it genuinely feels and looks more premium than its €100 price tag suggests.

Nothing does offer a selection of silicone bands in various colors and finishes, providing a good starting point.
