This development comes a few days after a leak surfaced, hinting at various specifications of the CMF Phone 1. Furthermore, the CMF Watch Pro 2 was reportedly spotted on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website, hinting at imminent launch in the country.
While no specifications of any of the above-mentioned devices have been revealed, Nothing has teased a common design element that all three of them share – a rotating dial.
