CMF unveils Watch 3 Pro series in India

The new four-channel heart rate sensor of the CMF Watch 3 Pro promises to offer improved accuracy across all skin tones and workout intensities.

Nothing Inc's subsidiary CMF on Wednesday (April 6) launched the new Watch 3 Pro series in India.

The new CMF Watch 3 Pro features a minimalistic design language. It flaunts a precision-milled metal body with soft-touch silicone straps. It comes with IP68 rating, meaning it can survive a dip in the swimming pool for up to 1.5 metres (around five feet) for close to 30 minutes.

On the front, it sports a 1.43-inch AMOLED display with ultra-thin bezels and Always-On Display support. Also, it has 10 per cent more screen-to-body ratio compared to the Watch Pro 2.

It supports more than 120 custom watch faces, including video, photo, and AI-generated options via Watch Face Studio. Further, users can also add full-screen or mini widgets for fitness, weather, music, or reminders.

It supports 131 sports modes and comes with a new dual-band five-system GPS setup for faster and more accurate route tracking in any environment. Also, it comes with improved motion monitoring and tracking, a 6-axis accelerometer sensor is fitted, a 50 per cent increase compare to the predecessor.

The new four-channel heart rate sensor promises to offer improved accuracy across all skin tones and workout intensities. With Active Score, users will get a simple snapshot of his/her weekly effort using MET data, helping them stay consistent.

Further, the Watch 3 Pro also comes with advanced health tracking tools such as blood oxygen monitoring (SpO2), stress tracking, guided breathing exercises, hydration and inactivity reminders, and women’s health tracking as well.

Another interesting aspect of the CMF watch is that it comes deeply integrated with OpenAI's ChatGPT integration on Nothing OS. Users can ask questions, get facts, or set reminders, all using natural-language voice prompts.

It also boasts a built-in voice recorder with auto-transcription, which helps capture notes or ideas.

It also supports the Essential News tool that can deliver daily digests based on the user's interests. Thanks to the built-in microphone and speaker, Watch 3 Pro users can make Bluetooth calls. Also, users can make 140-character quick replies on the compact screen.

With a full charge, it can deliver 11 days of battery life with heavier tracking, and around four and half days with Always-On Display enabled. A full charge takes around 99 minutes.
