CMF has brought two new pairs of earbuds to Malaysia, with the Clip Pro priced at RM359 and the Buds Neo at RM129. Both are available from 19 October 2026, offering a choice between an open-ear clip-on design and more affordable in-ear active noise cancellation.
Malaysia prices and colours
| Model | Malaysia price | Colours |
|---|---|---|
| CMF Clip Pro | RM359 | Dark Grey, Light Grey, Coral |
| CMF Buds Neo | RM129 | Black, White, Dark Blue |
Clip Pro: open-ear listening with LDAC
The Clip Pro is CMF’s first open-ear model. Its three-point clip design sits around the ear without inserting an ear tip into the ear canal, giving buyers an alternative to conventional sealed earbuds.
Inside are 10.8mm dual-magnet dynamic drivers, with support for Hi-Res Audio and LDAC. VPU-powered Clear Voice Technology handles voice pickup for calls, while Smart Dial controls provide another way to manage playback.
CMF rates total listening time at up to 32.5 hours with the charging case. The open-ear format is aimed at listeners who prefer to remain aware of their surroundings while enjoying audio.
Buds Neo: active noise cancellation for RM129
The Buds Neo takes the more familiar in-ear approach. It combines 12.4mm dynamic drivers with active noise cancellation rated at up to 35dB, bringing ANC to a considerably lower price point than the Clip Pro.
For calls, the earbuds use four microphones with Clear Voice Technology. Claimed total playback reaches 52 hours including the charging case. As with the Clip Pro, that is a maximum figure rather than a guarantee for every listening mode; volume, ANC settings and usage will affect actual battery life.
CMF Clip Pro vs Buds Neo
| Feature | CMF Clip Pro | CMF Buds Neo |
|---|---|---|
| Fit | Open-ear, three-point clip | In-ear |
| Drivers | 10.8mm dual-magnet dynamic | 12.4mm dynamic |
| Audio highlight | Hi-Res Audio, LDAC | Up to 35dB ANC |
| Call technology | VPU-powered Clear Voice Technology | Four-mic Clear Voice Technology |
| Maximum total playback with case | 32.5 hours | 52 hours |
| Price | RM359 | RM129 |
The main decision is the fit you prefer. The Clip Pro offers open listening without an in-ear seal, while the Buds Neo pairs a conventional ear-tip design with ANC. Buyers should weigh those differences alongside the RM230 price gap, rather than treating the two models as interchangeable upgrades.
Where to buy in Malaysia
Both models are on sale from 19 October through the Nothing Image Store, TMT, Urban Republic and other authorised retailers. Online availability includes Shopee, Lazada and TikTok Shop. The Clip Pro is also offered through the Nothing official website.
