When we did our Apple AirPods 4 review in September 2024, we liked that they were reasonably priced and had quality sound. While the price of Apple earbuds varies depending on whether you get active noise cancellation (ANC), this feature also determines how long you can use them – playback time clocks in at 4 hours with ANC and 5 hours without. However, as we scoured the internet, we came across headphones that were not only much cheaper, but also offered longer playtime than AirPods 4.<\/p>\n

With thousands of positive reviews from users, the JLab JBuds Mini Bluetooth earbuds are sold on Amazon and may be worth considering when considering a new pair of AirPods. As well as offering an extra 30 minutes of playtime over Apple’s offerings, JLab’s earbuds also focus on portability, with the company touting the smaller size of the earbuds and their charging case. JBuds also feature extra protection, including sweat and dust resistance – and there’s a noise-canceling microphone alongside features to let you hear outside sounds.<\/p>\n

Apple’s earbuds are a popular product, but there is at least one frustrating flaw with AirPods 4, so it wouldn’t hurt to consider other options available online. Since the JBuds retail for $32 \u2014 less than the price of a high-end modern video game \u2014 they might be worth checking out for anyone looking for earbuds that can last a while before needing to be charged.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Save 20% on JLab JBuds Mini<\/h2>\n
\n

With an average of 4.2 stars across nearly 7,000 reviews on Amazon, the JLab JBuds Mini Bluetooth earbuds are 20% off their regular listing price of $39.99 – just $31.99. JBuds come in a variety of tones and colors, including Charcoal Black, Sage, Mint, and more. However, note that not all color options are part of the deal. Along with the accompanying JLab app for customizing touch controls and sound options, these headphones include some extras that make them a solid alternative to AirPods.<\/p>\n

Offering 5.5 hours of playtime from each earbud, the company says these are the smallest earbuds and case of any major headphone brand. For sound, the earphones have a 16-ohm impedance and a 6 mm flexible driver, covering a frequency response between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. With Bluetooth 5.3 device pairing capabilities, you can also connect these earbuds to two different devices at the same time.<\/p>\n

Along with a charging case that can bring the earbuds’ total listening time to 20 hours on a USB-C charge, you also get three sets of silicone gel tips that come with a two-year warranty from JLab. Finding that these have good sound quality for music, customers also appreciate the Amazon’s Choice item for its small size and overall value. However, some customers report that they have connection problems with certain devices. Of course, for those with small ears, we can also recommend other earbuds that might be for you.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
