Nothing has announced the CMF Watch Pro 3, which it claims is its most advanced budget smartwatch yet.

The design of the CMF Watch Pro 3 doesn’t appear to stray too far from that of the CMF Watch Pro 2 , with a familiar circular look.

It features a precision-milled metal body together with soft-touch silicone straps, both of which come in three new finish and colour combinations: Dark Grey, Light Grey, and Orange. Combined with the more than 120 custom watch faces, it should be quite the distinctive looker.

The metal body houses a larger 1.43-inch (up from 1.32-inch) AMOLED display, which now features a 10% improvement in the screen-to-body ratio. As before, it’s IP68 rated for decent dust and water resistance.

The new watch brings a host of health and fitness features to the table. Alongside dual-band GPS, there’s a new four-channel heart rate sensor, AI coaching, and 130 sports modes.

A new six-axis accelerometer sensor should improve motion monitoring and tracking.

Battery life was a strength with the Watch Pro 2, and that’s been extended to 13 days under typical use. That’s an increase of two days.

Heavier days filled with location tracking will still last you 11 days, while activating that always-on display will bring the figure down to 4.5 days, which is still better than any WearOS or WatchOS smartwatch.

The CMF Watch Pro 3 arrives at a time when Nothing is transitioning its smartwatches to the Nothing X app, which promises to supply improved stability, a fresh UI, and smarter fitness tools. It also features support for other fitness platforms such as Strava, Apple Health, and Google Health Connect.

The CMF Watch Pro 3 is available today direct from the Nothing website (along with select partners) in Dark Grey, Light Grey, and Orange. It’s priced at £99 / $99 / €99.
