CMF Watch 3 Pro Review: Is It Worth the Price?

"The wearable market in India, especially the smartwatch category, has seen a meteoric rise in the last couple of years. Once associated with status and fashion, smartwatches are now much more than a piece of jewellery that just sits on your wrist all day. We now take calls, check our messages, and, most importantly, track our workouts and fitness goals to see whether we have hit our 10,000 steps target."

"Arriving almost a year after its global debut, the CMF Watch 3 Pro has finally been launched in India with a price tag of Rs. 7,999, which is significantly steeper than its predecessor. With a large round dial, the new smartwatch focuses on long battery life, a number of customisable watch faces, and everything the competition offers in terms of fitness tracking."

"In my first impressions of the CMF Watch 3 Pro, I found the design of the smartwatch to be better than the competition, because of how simple yet functional it is. That assessment still stands. The minimalist design philosophy, unique to Nothing and CMF, is what sets the wearable apart from the competition. The metal case of the CMF Watch 3 Pro looks premium and robust, suggesting it can withstand daily wear and tear compared to its predecessor."

"The CMF Watch 3 Pro is on sale in the country in Dark Grey, Light Green, Light Grey, and Orange colour options. And I got to test the Dark Grey shade, paired with black silicon straps. This particular colourway is quite subtle and comfortable to look at compared to the other options."

India’s smartwatch market has grown rapidly, shifting smartwatches from fashion status symbols to daily tools for calls, messages, and fitness tracking like step goals. Competition is intense, especially in the Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 10,000 segment, with brands such as Boat, Noise, and Fire-Boltt leading. CMF Watch 3 Pro, launched in India nearly a year after its global debut, is priced at Rs. 7,999, higher than its predecessor. The watch features a large round dial, minimalist Nothing/CMF design, a metal case, multiple color options, customizable watch faces, long battery life, and fitness tracking features comparable to competitors. The design is positioned as more premium and robust for everyday wear.
