Anker's new Soundcore Sleep A30 earbuds, available for preorder via Kickstarter, feature active noise cancellation (ANC) for improved sleep. Priced at $229.99 (discounted to $139 for early Kickstarter backers), they offer up to 9 hours of battery life (45 with the case) using onboard sleep sounds; streaming reduces this to 6.5 hours. Slimmer than previous models, they include multiple ear tip sizes and upgraded features like adaptive snore masking via the charging case, sleep monitoring, and a find-my-earbud function. Full release is expected in August 2025.
