Generation & platform
The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?
Same generation
The Nothing CMF Buds Neo is 7 years newer, but it is the same generation of hardware: nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. Nothing separates them on convenience features either, so the choice comes down to tuning and price. For 7 years between them, that is a thin return - treat this as a restyle rather than a new platform.

What reviewers said
Nothing CMF Buds Neo
The CMF Buds Neo deliver impressive value for around $22, combining a punchy, bass-forward sound with surprisingly effective adaptive ANC and marathon battery life of up to 52 hours with the case.

Overall, they stand out as a top budget TWS option for listeners who prioritize bass, battery, and noise cancellation over extra features.

- Pro:Effective adaptive ANC for the price
- Pro:Excellent battery life (up to 52h with case)
- Con:No wear detection sensor

UiiSii TWS60
The UiiSii TWS60 offers a distinct bright sound signature with controlled bass, making it a good pick for treble lovers on a tight budget. It provides basic wireless features like Bluetooth 5.0 and touch controls, but its short battery life and average call quality hold it back. Overall, it's a niche budget option for those who prioritize a non-bassy tuning.
- Pro:Bright, treble-forward sound with controlled bass
- Pro:Affordable price point
- Pro:IPX5 water resistance for workouts
- Con:Short 3-hour battery life per charge
- Con:Only SBC codec support
- Con:No multipoint connectivity
