FAQs
How do I activate Active Noise Cancellation?
ANC can be activated or deactivated by long-pressing the touch control on either earbud. You can also manage ANC modes through the Nothing X app.
How long does the battery last?
With ANC off, the earbuds can provide up to 8 hours of listening time, and the charging case extends this to a total of 30 hours. With ANC on, expect approximately 5 hours of listening time per charge.
Can I use just one earbud?
Yes, you can use either the left or right earbud independently for calls or listening.
Are the CMF Buds 2a waterproof?
The CMF Buds 2a have an IP54 rating, which means they are resistant to dust and splashes of water, making them suitable for workouts and light rain. They are not designed to be submerged.
How do I customize the sound and controls?
You can customize EQ settings, ANC levels, touch controls, and enable features like Game Mode by downloading and using the Nothing X app from your device's app store.
What is the benefit of Transparency Mode?
Transparency Mode allows ambient sounds to pass through the earbuds, so you can hear your surroundings without taking them off. This is useful for conversations, public transport announcements, or staying aware of traffic.
How do I charge the earbuds?
Place the earbuds in the charging case. The case itself can be charged via a USB-C cable. A 10-minute fast charge of the earbuds provides up to 2 hours of listening time.
Troubleshooting
Earbuds not connecting to device
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Place both earbuds in the charging case, close the lid for 10 seconds, then reopen and try connecting again. If issues persist, reset the earbuds by pressing and holding the touch area for 10 seconds until the indicator light flashes red.
Audio cutting out or poor connection
Make sure your device is within Bluetooth range. Reduce interference from other wireless devices. Update your device's Bluetooth drivers or operating system. Re-pair the earbuds with your device.
ANC not working effectively
Ensure the ANC feature is enabled in the app or via touch controls. Check that the earbud tips create a good seal in your ears. Clean any debris from the ANC microphones on the earbuds.
Touch controls unresponsive
Ensure the touch areas on the earbuds are clean and dry. Restart your connected device. Check if touch controls are enabled and configured correctly in the Nothing X app.
No sound from one earbud
Place both earbuds in the charging case and close the lid. Remove them after a few seconds and try again. Ensure the audio balance settings on your connected device are centered. Reset the earbuds if the problem persists.
