CMF launches first speakers that look like milk cartons: What the new Speaker M and Speaker S offer

Nothing’s sub-brand, CMF, has launched its first portable speakers, the CMF Speaker M and Speaker S, marking its entry into a new product category which also stand out for their unusual, milk-carton-like appearance. The speakers feature compact rectangular bodies, with removable panels and different carrying options that set them apart visually from conventional portable speakers. Beyond their design, the two models take different approaches to portable audio, with one built around a more powerful dual-driver system and the other smaller and lighter.

Both speakers offer up to 18 hours of playback, Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity and IP68-rated dust and water resistance. They also support USB-C audio playback and Auracast-based Party Mode, allowing you to connect compatible speakers. While the two models share several features, their sound hardware, dimensions and battery capacities differ.
