Fresh off the release of the Nothing Phone (3) and Nothing Headphones (1), UK-based tech startup Nothing just launched a new smartwatch — and it’s already a strong contender for best budget smartwatch and fitness tracker of the year. Say hello to the Nothing CMF Watch 3 Pro — a sleek and affordable smartwatch “designed for everyday users and casual fitness explorers.”
The CMF Watch 3 Pro is already on sale at Nothing and Amazon as of July 22. Interestingly, Nothing lists the retail price at $99 and offers a $20 discount, while Amazon only lists the $79 price. However, per a Nothing press release, $99 is the true retail price, and it sells overseas for £99 and €99, respectively. Shoppers can grab the new smartwatch in orange, light gray, or dark gray.
An AI-powered smartwatch for under $100
Nothing is known for its distinctive-looking products that deliver flagship-like experiences for less, but the Watch 3 Pro’s design isn’t too far off the wall. It’s sleek and relatively subtle, with slim bezels, a round watch face, and a soft silicone band. It does offer over 120 custom watch faces, including video, photo, and AI-generated options through Watch Face Studio, so you can personalize it to match your style.
Feature-wise, the Watch 3 Pro has enough features to double as a fitness tracker. Andrew Freshwater, Head of Smart Products Marketing at Nothing, says it’s designed to be the “perfect starting point for anyone beginning their health and fitness journey.”

The Nothing CMF Watch 3 Pro also gets a boost from AI. In addition to the AI-generated watch faces, this smartwatch has direct ChatGPT integration. Using natural voice prompts, wearers can ask the AI chatbot questions or set reminders, for starters. It even acts as a voice recorder, which will auto-transcribe conversations or notes.

While we haven’t had a chance to test this new smartwatch yet, it looks like it offers a lot of value at $99. And on sale for $79, it sounds like a steal.
