There isn\u2019t quite enough resistance to the dial, so at times while the case was in my pocket, volume would go up or down by a click or two. I ended up disabling the dial and either using the buttons on the earbuds, which work well although with a slight delay, or just pulling out my phone instead of the case. And with functionality disabled the dial becomes a great<\/em> fidget toy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
The Clip Pro are pretty good with calls and don\u2019t exhibit the buggy functionality I experienced with the Nothing Ear 3A, where the compression on my voice would drastically adjust based on the ambient sound when I started talking. The noise gate is still very aggressive to filter out any surrounding sound and can clip the very end of a word, but when I was speaking at normal volumes while walking down the street, my wife was able to understand me easily. Soft-spoken people might run into issues, though. When I spoke quietly, I sounded very muffled and it took her lots of concentration to try and figure out what I said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
That call quality epitomizes the CMF Clip Pro, and it\u2019s the same with their sound. The earbuds are good at what they do under the constraints of the technology. And their comfort, along with their price, make them great when you don\u2019t want something deep in your ear.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
