Building on the foundation laid by the CMF Phone 1, the upcoming model promises significant improvements in design, camera capabilities, and performance. With just days left until its official debut, CMF has now unveiled the complete design of the Phone 2 Pro, giving us a detailed look at what’s to come.

Complete Design and Colour Options Revealed

CMF recently posted a teaser video on X (formerly Twitter), fully unveiling the design of the CMF Phone 2 Pro. The phone embraces the brand’s signature bold industrial design language, complete with visible screws and a rotating dial in the corner. This likely indicates that the handset will again support interchangeable back covers, a hallmark of the original CMF Phone 1.

Two colour variants have been showcased:

Bright Orange: Continuing from the Phone 1, but now with a more refined dual-tone finish.

White with Marble Grey: A new aesthetic that blends a smooth white panel with a grey marble-textured lower half, delivering a more premium and modern look.

Additionally, the camera module has seen a redesign. Unlike the CMF Phone 1, the Phone 2 Pro lacks metallic rings around the sensors. Instead, a third camera lens has been added, now placed on the right side, indicating a significant camera upgrade.

Confirmed Specifications and Features

CMF has already confirmed several major hardware upgrades and features of the Phone 2 Pro:

Performance and Gaming

Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Pro, which offers better performance and efficiency compared to the Dimensity 7300 on the CMF Phone 1.

Supports 120fps BGMI gaming and a 1,000Hz touch sampling rate, designed for ultra-responsive gameplay.

Includes a 53% boost in network performance, likely for improved mobile gaming and connectivity.

Camera Upgrades

Triple-camera system featuring:

50MP primary sensor (1/1.57-inch)

50MP 2x telephoto lens

8MP ultra-wide sensor

These upgrades are a major leap from the dual-camera (50MP + 2MP) setup on the CMF Phone 1.

AI and Essential Key

Features the Essential Key, a customizable physical key that provides quick access to the brand’s AI-powered Essential Space — a suite of smart tools and features designed to enhance productivity and user interaction.

What Else is Launching?

Alongside the CMF Phone 2 Pro, the brand is also introducing a new lineup of audio products:

CMF Buds 2

CMF Buds 2a

CMF Buds 2 Plus

This suggests a broader strategy from CMF to build a cohesive ecosystem around its smartphones.

Expected Pricing and Availability

Given the ‘Pro’ branding and upgraded hardware, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is expected to be priced higher than the CMF Phone 1, which launched as a budget-friendly device. While official pricing hasn’t been revealed, more details are expected on launch day — April 28th.

Conclusion

The CMF Phone 2 Pro looks poised to offer a compelling mix of design, performance, and photography features, taking CMF’s smartphone ambitions to a more premium tier. With its industrial styling, improved camera setup, and gaming-centric upgrades, the Phone 2 Pro could become an attractive option for users looking for value with a touch of uniqueness. As the launch date nears, all eyes are now on CMF to see how it positions this bold new offering in the competitive mid-range smartphone market.
