Built around the philosophy \u201cHear What Matters,\u201d DUB is for people who see music as a sanctuary from the noise, whether creating, connecting, or carving out personal moments in a busy world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DUB brings HMD\u2019s human-first approach to audio, pairing thoughtful design with uncompromising performance. Its three series cater to different lifestyles: the P-Series is vibrant and approachable for casual listeners; the S-Series balances style and substance with Dolby Audio<sup>TM<\/sup> and Environmental Noise Cancellation; and the X-Series delivers premium sound, led by the flagship DUB X50 Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The DUB X50 Pro elevates everyday life. Its DUB Platinum Sound powered by Hi-Fi DSP delivers rich, balanced audio across every genre. Active Noise Cancellation and AI-powered four-mic ENC ensure clear calls in any environment. With up to 60 hours of total playtime, fast charging, and smart features like automatic in-ear detection, multipoint connectivity, and integrated voice assistant control, it adapts effortlessly to dynamic routines from morning workouts to late-night playlists or back-to-back calls during the workday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DUB earbuds are designed for both durability and style. Clean, minimal lines make them a fashion-forward accessory, while the HMD DUB Audio app lets users customize their sound experience. Every detail from the tactile feel of the earbuds to their intuitive usability reflects HMD\u2019s belief that technology should enhance life, not distract from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cPeople already know HMD for creating honest, practical, and human tech,\u201d said Sanmeet Singh Kochhar, SVP of HMD Global \u2013 Europe, Asia, Middle East &amp; Africa. \u201cDUB takes that spirit and turns it up. It\u2019s bold, expressive, and built for the way we live now, where sound is part of identity. DUB isn\u2019t just something you wear; it\u2019s something you feel.
