Audio brand JLab has launched a new pair of affordable wireless sports headphones called Sport ANC 4. Most importantly, these next-generation headphones feature features not seen in other JLab models.
Chief among them is hybrid active noise cancellation, which allows the headphones to listen to the surroundings and automatically adjust the intensity of the noise cancellation. You can block out up to 25 dB of outside sound, or if you prefer, you can let the world filter in through ambient 'Be Aware mode'.
The Sport ANC 4 features touch and slide controls that allow you to easily perform multiple actions, such as increasing the volume, pausing songs, or changing settings. By tapping on the earbuds, users can cycle through three audio profiles: JLab Signature, Balanced, and Bass Boost for that extra kick. Of course, everything listed here can be done through the official JLab app on a connected device.

Additionally, they support Google's recently launched Find My Device network, which can let you ping the earbuds and see where they are on a map in case you lose them. All you have to do to use the network is pair the devices to your compatible Android smartphone. We have a guide with step-by-step instructions on how to set 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 to see on sports earbuds. They have an IP66 water resistance rating, allowing them to survive floods of sweat during intense workouts. The rubber earhook that protrudes from the body ensures a secure hold around the ear.
A battery life of over 60 hours is promised with the charging case, but note that there is no active noise cancellation. If that listening mode is activated, the maximum battery life is reduced to approximately 40 hours. You'll also find multipoint Bluetooth support for using the headphones on multiple devices, noise-canceling microphones, and Google Fast Pair.
JLab's Sport ANC 4 can be pre-ordered for $69.99 in Graphite, Teal, Cobalt, and Pink. All four will ship at the end of July.
