Moondrop Space Travel 2 HiFi Noise-Canceling TWS Wireless Earphone Bluetooth 6.0 ANC Low-Latency Game Mode SBC/AAC (Black)

Very good for the price, was recommended these by some audiophiles as one of the best budget options for earphones. Sound quality is great, they are light, look good and the battery life is decent, upgraded from 4h to 8h compared to the old model. Touch controls are responsive and easy to use. Can be a bit hard to take in and out of the case until you get used to using it, but also has the option of either a clear plastic case or a nice looking leather one that keep it from falling out of the case. Also comes with changeable ear tips but i find the default ones fit well enough.

So to start, the sound quality and ANC on these are excellent. They rival the first gen airpod pros that I replaced with them. Clear instrument separation, good bass without sounding muddy. The style is kickass, and I like the little anime sounds it makes.However, the headphones and case are somewhat lightweight and plastic feeling, as you'd expect in this pricerange. While that's not an issue, the case is. It looks very stylish but getting the headphones in and out is awkward.The touch controls are probably the worst part. They're unresponsive and delayed, I often accidentally activate them when adjusting the headphones or putting them on or off. Next and previous tracks are also split between both sides, which sucks for me because I typically wear the right one by itself at work.Great for the price but not without their flaws

Ive been looking for a good pair of ASMR ear buds. Some friends recommended me these and im so glad they did. They're comfortable, great price for the performance, the dock works double...it can be charged without the buds and when full acts as a portable battery for the buds. The noise cancelling functions are great and the audio quality is amazing (i like listening to heartbeat ASMR to drown out my tinnitus) and im actually able to feel the heartbeat and breathing. As a bonus the little announcer voice for the different functions is a cute sounding Japanese girl!

I ve used a lot of tws earbuds, and exponentially more headphones and wired earbuds. A few years ago the $200 brand name earbuds I bought a couple years prior were really struggling to hold a charge for more than a couple hours. I had known about li-ion battery degredation, of course, but with batteries small enough to fit into an earbud you really feel it. It was that point I realized that tws earbuds are essentially disposable. A good pair of $200 wired headphones will last a lifetime if you take care of them but battery powered earbuds have an expiration date, and if you use them daily like I do that date will come sooner than later.With that in mind I began to try to find the absolute best sound I can get at a price I can live with throwing away. I had a few misses before I heard of the Moondrop Space Travel. By that point Moondrop had already made a splash in audiophile communities for producing high value budget products like their Starfield IEMs.I bought the Space Travel and absolutely loved them. They sounded as good as wired IEMs I've owned that cost more than triple their price. To me the value was comparable to the famous Koss KSC75. I loved them for 2 years before I accidentally send them through the washing machine, and when they miraculously survived (albeit the mic was shot) I loved them for a few more montha before I lost the left earbud. It was ok with it, tws aren't long for this world and I made my peace with that a long time ago.So I logged into Amazon, went to buy the same exact pair and the Space Travel 2 is listed below it ...and it's only $3 more? ...and it arrives same day? Ok, let's go! So I have them in hand now and I'm just blown away. Moondrop have managed to approve on everything, across the board. They sound better, wider, more detailed, better separation. To be clear, you're not getting flagship headphones performance but the quality is absolutely astounding at the price point. On top of that the app has been vastly improved and now allows you to download and share DSP profiles. Now the reference setting out of the box sounds fantastic but I found an even better tuning for my ears after a half an hour of downloading and testing various DSP configs. On top of that the app let me disable ANC touch controls while allowing me to still turn it on I'm the app in the rare instances I need it; accidentally activating ANC on the predecessor was my biggest pet peave.TLDR: I loved the first Space Travel and I love these even more. You will be hard pressed to find better tws at this price point. And when the battery inevitably gives up the ghost, or you send them swirling to Valhalla through the Maytag, you can just buy another pair and you're still ahead of where you would have been if you sprung for that $100+ pair you had your eye on.

Suggestion for manufacturer. Find a way to add a detachable cable with larger battery that links the two buds and hangs behind neck. Users can use it when needed. Otherwise 4+ hour battery life is ridiculous. Because I have earbuds on all day.Excellent sound quality for this price range. Its loud. Music sounds soulful. Play some nu metal or rock and guitars and mids will jump out and surprise you and you'll go like yeah worth the 30 bucks. Bass is detailed and soulful. Instrument separation is nice less muddied and less flat than most earbuds on the cheap end. Wide soundstage. Sound quality is impressive. Anc feature is nice. It quites ambient noise slightly.Categorically this type of earbuds are poorly designed. Sacrificing convenience and battery life for this dumb design. Earbuds need to go back to the buds attached to cable design. Its slightly awkward do you put cable behind neck or hanging in front. But you get better battery life and extra buttons for features instead of crowding the touch panel with too many click combinations.Weird branding feature where they have this anime character doing all the voice notifications. Annoying.

Touch tap function did not work on the R side. Hopefully the replacement works. Sound was good simular to spacetravel originals.
