Recently I've been lucky to test drive the new Nothing CMF Clip Pro, a fresh pair of open-ear buds that offer an airy alternative to the traditional earbud style. They came at just the right time, as the UK's recent heatwave made my headphones feel like strapping two miniature ovens to my ears, but I was curious how they'd compare when it came to audio and functionality.
Admittedly, open-ears are never going to compete with the best wired headphones, and the audiophiles out there may turn their noses up at these compact buds, but I'm here to fight their corner. Lightweight, unobtrusive and surprisingly crisp, I'm happy to announce I've met my new audio soulmate.
