JLab JBuds Mini ANC earbuds will launch with Apple Find My support
They're the "world's smallest" ANC buds, and come with a keyring
They'll launch in August 2026 for $39.99

JLab makes some of the best cheap earbuds and is pretty much the only brand we recommend if you're spending under $30. The brand recently announced that it's launching a new pair of its tiny 'mini' keyring wireless earbuds, this time with active noise cancellation.

But JLab has confirmed they'll be even better than initially advertised when they launch in August 2026 for just $39.99 (around £39 / AU$80), thanks to support for Apple's Find My location tech, making them an even smarter option to attach to your keys.

I already had a chance to try the JLab JBuds Mini ANC out, and they're astoundingly good considering the price (and, based on JLab's history, they'll fall below that regularly), and that they really are small enough to be on your keyring (with a loop for just that purpose, even).

,I said in that piece that "I think everyone should have a set on their keyring" already, just based on how useful it is always to know you'll have good earbuds with you. Adding Find My support means that for Apple users, they'll work a bit like AirTag as well as earbuds, so they can help you find misplaced keys from the Find My app built into iPhone, iPad, Mac, and other devices.

Like an AirTag, lost for the very last time

Like an AirTag — or like AirPods, which also have Find My built in — the JBuds Mini ANC maintain a very low-energy connection to your phone even when not in use. If you leave them behind somewhere and break that connection, your phone will note its GPS location when it was last connected to them, so you can retrace your steps.

Even more than that, though, Find My items can also connect to any Apple device owned by anyone and report their location back to your phone remotely, so if you lose them and someone walks within wireless range, you'll know roughly where your JBuds Mini ANC (and, by extension, your keys) are.

And if you know you're close to them but can't see them, you can use the Find My app to tell the earbuds to make a noise, so you can hopefully hone right in on them.
