- Nothing of the ‘headphones/headphones’ certification in Japan Audio Society
- The model (no. B170) appears with a date of ‘2025/03’
- Jas codevecated the high -resolution audio standard, but nothing of the outbreaks will not have it
Another day, another clue that nothing is the next CMF headset cheaper than spin-off headphones could be launched at any time, but now we can wait a release this month and without high-resolution audio credentials.
In case you have lost it, nothing was detected in a FCC presentation in February, along with the image you see above. We also obtained some key specifications, including the Bluetooth support for connectivity, a 460 mAh battery and the return of the rotating dial in the corner of the box for the volume and handling of tracks, while we speak extensively in our CMF Buds Pro 2 review.
At that time, we assume that the new cheap shoots would land next to the then not confirmed anything from the 3rd telephone and nothing like a set of headphones to group with the new phone. On March 4, the phones arrived, but CMF 2 sprouts never showed.
So what tells us this new list on the website of the Audio Society of Japan? Mainly, a date of “2025/03”. Although the list does not expressly confirm that the date refers to the launch (and not only to the publication of the certification) other products listed below provide a date that corresponds to the real launch of the product; The model numbers related to Nothing EAR (A) and nothing EAR is listed with a “2024/04” date, which is when both launched.
It makes sense: the CMF by Nothing Buds (which Buds 2 Plus will replace) was launched in March 2024 precisely a year ago, and I do not need to tell him about the rhythm that moves quickly from telephone iterations and their portable audio accessories.
CMF Buds 2 Plus: It is a not for high resolution audio, and for money, we expected that
Although we cannot say how well the Buds 2 plus of the new presentation of Jas (or exactly when they will launch this month) will sound, we can count a little more about the Bluetooth audio credentials. This is because the Japan Audio Society helped establish the HI-RES audio standard together with Sony in 2014, developing the logo that will see in certified high-resolution audio products.
In the upper part of its listings, the JAS writes: “The ‘(+Hraw)’ in the category column means that the product has adjusted to the standard of ‘high -resolution audio’ and standard of ‘audio wireless audio’.”
There have been a suffix of +Hraw to three products in the most recent lists of society, including Nothing Ear (A), Nothing Ear, and April 2023-EMISSION Nothing Ear 2, but not the new B170. Therefore, we can surely assume that you will not get a reproduction of LDAC audio support or HI-RES of up to 1 Mbps (or frequencies of up to 24 bits/192 kHz) with these cmf cheap incomes for nothing.
Honestly, it is a bit Churlish to expect a high resolution support given the aggressive price labels that the CMF subsidiary has not arrived to date. The CMF Buds Pro 2 application rate was only $ 59 / £ 59 / AU $ 99 at the launch in July 2024.
How much can we expect that the cost of CMF 2 more professional outbreaks? We cannot say it with certainty, but I would not be surprised to see a price of less than $ 50 / £ 50.
