Wireless earbuds at Woot and Verizon, and the CMF Watch app for iPhones and iPods – the news in Beats
It’s officially autumn. The weather is going to get nicer, and there are many different ways to use an electronic device. The winds of change also mean there’s a nice deal to be had on one of Apple’s outgoing wireless chargers. You can get the Apple MagSafe Duo charger for an all-time low of $94.99 ($35 off) at Woot or for $1.75 more at Verizon.
I have no idea what is going on with the Beats Studio Buds Plus, but they keep getting cheaper. The latest wireless earbuds from Beats are on sale for just $199.95 at Woot. I can only come up with one catch, that they are limited to black and not available in the cool see- through design, but it isn’t that bad if you have a good pair of noise cancelling earbuds.
If you want to stay alert to your environment, the earbuds feature transparency mode, which makes it possible to hear the sounds around you. The Buds Pro will offer up to 11 hours on a single charge, and 39 hours with the case once noise cancellation is switched off. Clear voice technology, high definition mics and water resistance are included in the buds.
The Watch Pro also connects with your phone, allowing you to access your contact list and make phone calls from the device’s built-in microphone and speaker. The CMF Watch app can help you with the management of the device, which can last up to 13 days on a single charge.
The Power 65W GaN: A Charger for the Notion Phone 2 and Other Cool Devices from the Chemical Mechanics (CMF)
The Power 65W GaN is a charger from CMF which comes with two ports and one port. The CMF says it can charge up the Nothing Phone 2 in 25 minutes.
Nothing is a young brand with a range of stylish products, including the second-generation Nothing phone, the Nothing Ear Stick, and the Nothing Ear 2. It also only just announced CMF, which stands for “Color, Material, and Finish,” in August. The pricing of CMF’s Buds Pro and Watch Pro drastically undercuts the cost of Nothing’s products (its Ear 2 earbuds cost $149) and the market as a whole (the cheapest Apple Watch is $249), so questions remain about how well the devices will actually perform.
Nothing’s London-based store will have a limited edition of CMF’s devices on September 30th. The company says they’ll be sold in more locations “later this month.”
