Combined with Personal Sound tuning, the earbuds offer a more tailored listening profile.

 

The Buds 2 Plus features hybrid active noise cancellation rated at up to 50 dB, along with a Smart Adaptive Mode that adjusts ANC performance based on surrounding noise and ear canal fit.

CMF Buds 2 feature a familiar ergonomic shape for a secure fit, and include an 11mm driver built with high-rigidity PMI material, which, as per CMF, is aimed at improving clarity across bass, mid, and treble ranges. The audio output is further tuned by Dirac Opteo, which is said to improve vocal sharpness and separation of instruments. Support for Spatial Audio, using a head-related transfer function (HRTF)-based algorithm, is present, which would add a surround sound-like effect.

 

According to CMF, the Buds 2 offer up to 13.5 hours of playback on a single charge and a total of 55 hours with the case, provided active noise cancellation (ANC) is turned off. The hybrid ANC system claims to suppress up to 48 dB of external noise. A quick 10-minute charge is said to deliver around 7.5 hours of playback.
