JLab’s new sports earbuds have ANC and Find My Device support, so you won’t lose them
Audio brand JLab has launched a new pair of budget-friendly wireless athletic earbuds called the Sports ANC 4. Most importantly, these next-generation earbuds introduce features not found on other JLab models.
The most important of these is Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation, which allows the earbuds to listen to the environment and automatically adjust the strength of the noise cancellation. It can block up to 25 dB of outside noise or, if you prefer, let the world through via its ‘Be Aware’ ambient mode.
The Sport ANC 4 features swipe and touch controls that allow you to easily perform multiple actions such as increasing the volume, pausing songs or changing settings. By tapping the earbuds, users can cycle through three audio profiles: JLab Signature, Balanced and Bass Boost for that extra punch. Of course, everything stated here can be done via the official JLab app on a connected device.

Plus, these support Google’s recently launched Find My Device network, which lets you ping the earbuds and see where they are on a map if you lose them. All you have to do to use the network is connect the devices to your supporting Android smartphone. We have a guide with step-by-step instructions for setting up Find My Device, so be sure to check it out.
Notable features
The rest of the Sport ANC 4’s features are what you’d expect on a pair of athletic earbuds. They have a water resistance rating of IP66, which means they can survive being inundated with sweat during intense workouts. The rubber hook protruding from the body provides a secure fit around your ear.
More than 60 hours of battery life is promised with the charging case, but note that it doesn’t have active noise cancellation. With that listening mode enabled, maximum battery life drops to around 40 hours. You’ll also find support for Bluetooth Multipoint for using the earbuds on multiple devices, noise-cancelling microphones, and Google Fast Pair.
JLab’s Sport ANC 4 is active pre-order for $69.99 in graphite, blue-green, cobalt and pink. All four will ship at the end of July.
