JLab is once again seemingly proving that “premium” doesn’t have to mean “overpriced.” At CES 2026, the brand revealed a fresh slate of gear that focuses on extreme portability and office-ready features. Headlining the show is the JBuds Mini ANC, which manages to cram active noise cancellation into a case that’s essentially the size of a keychain.

Between January 5 and 9, the new lineup is being showcased at JLab’s suite in Caesars Palace, Julius Tower, giving attendees a first look at the smallest noise-canceling buds on the market.

The JBuds Mini ANC is the clear star of the launch

JLab hasn’t just added a new feature; they’ve shrunk the hardware even further. The charging case is 50% smaller and the buds themselves are 30% smaller than their already tiny Go POP+ model.

Despite their “peanut-sized” dimensions, they don’t skimp on the basics. You get 6.5 hours of playback per earbud (over 25 hours total with the case), Bluetooth multipoint for dual-device switching, and an IP55 rating for dust and sweat resistance. JLab CEO Win Cramer noted that keeping the price at $39.99 while adding ANC was a “non-negotiable” goal. They’ll be available in March in four colors: Graphite, Midnight Navy, Ruby Red, and Blush Pink.

For those stuck in back-to-back Zoom calls, the Go Work 3 is the next evolution of JLab’s popular office headset

It features a sleeker, more modern design and a new offset USB-C dongle designed to provide a more stable wireless connection without blocking neighboring ports on your laptop. It’s also launching in March with a budget-friendly price tag of $49.99.

Finally, JLab is expanding its “open-ear” family. The JBuds Open Headphones – which use an air-conduction design to keep you aware of your surroundings—are now shipping in Black for $99.99. If you prefer a lighter look, a new Cloud White colorway is scheduled to drop later this month.
