Anker Soundcore Space One

Comfy to wear ; Stylish looks ; Effective (enough) ANC ; Good clarity and detail with music ; Affordable price

EQ options are rubbish ; ANC can struggle in very noisy areas ; Call quality disappoints

Stylish affordable headphones with good sound and a mostly effective noise-cancelling performance, the Soundcore Space One offer an effective all-round performance for less than £100/$100.

Sound tailored to your hearing ; Adaptive noise cancelling ; Ergonomic, comfortable fit ; Wear detection ; Folding design ; Long battery life

ANC needs refining ; Some features are almost hidden in the Soundcore app (e.g. wear detection) ; Feels less durable than some premium over-ear cans

The Soundcore Space One aren't the most premium headphones, but these sleek cans are an absolute steal at this price point. You get decent, bass-rich sound, comfortable folding design, adaptive ANC and transparency modes, and a suite of additional...

Good ANC Great battery life Affordable

Powerful, bass-forward audio Decent noise cancellation for the price App includes adjustable EQ Supports LDAC codec Included cable enables wired listening

Ineffective button layout

Space to Shine The Anker Soundcore Space One headphones produce bass-forward (but adjustable) audio and offer reasonably effective noise cancellation for their sub-$100 price. We also like the LDAC support, long battery life, and option to listen in a...

Good value for ANC over-ear headphones ; Very long 40-55 hour battery with a 5-minute fast charge ; Comfortable fit ; Bluetooth 5.3 ; Includes headphone cable for wired listening ; Collapsible design

Fit isn't tight enough for the gym or head-tilting ; The wear sensor is sometimes inconsistent ; The microphone is subpar ; Turning on/off requires too long of a button press ; No IPX rating

The Soundcore Space One headphones are comfortable, sound good (especially with custom EQ), have nice ANC, and even offer comfort features like auto-play sensors and multi-point connections.

All in all, the Space One headphones are great, considering their low price tag. I would recommend these headphones for people who don't want the most fancy and expensive headphones, but don't want to sell themselves short with cheaply made ones, either.

These might not be the most comfortable headphones to lug around, but if you’re working with a limited budget and want high-end performance at an enticing price point, the Space One will give you just that.
