"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"Crazy good from the jump! ... When you factor in they're only $99 and go toe-to-toe with Bose QC Ultra at $299, this is the deal of the year!"
"Can't recommend them enough for the value, sound like $200 earphones."

"For an open style earbud, these genuinely surprised me with their overall performance in sound at this price point. ... IMHO, these Soundpeats PearlClip Pro are probably the best I’ve heard in this under $50 price category when it comes to this style of earbuds. ... These are one of the best clip-on earbuds in this price category especially when it comes to price to performance in sound quality and feature set"
"How much of a difference does a little 5 ohm impedance bump make? A whole hell of a lot actually. ... we get a HUGE bass boost in the balance of this IEM, running into the mid range and smoothing out the treble. If you add foam tips into the equation, what you get is a bassy, new meta-like sound with a much fuller mid bass and lower mid range, making for much richer male vocals while eliminating Harman shout and spice. Once adapted, the set has a much more pronounced mid bass kick and texture, and will satisfy a fair amount of bassheads. ... All in all, the adapter makes it sound like a completely different IEM, and that makes for a pretty versatile, choose-your-own-adventure style experience."
"I struggle to tell the difference between them and "premium" buds that cost 3 or 4 times more, so I just stick with these. ... I auditioned these between Bose QC 2024, Pixel Buds Pro and Sony WF-1000XM5 and I can't really tell the difference. ... certainly not enough to make me pay 4x as much."

"ANC is equal or better than the AirPods Pro 2. ... I compared them on a recent flight. ... For me, the Earfuns were better as I compared the 2. ... I tried both on the flight out and the flight back. I stuck with the Earfuns both times."
"Anc is much better on the earfun but call quality is horrible. ... Earfun ANC is far better then Liberty 4 anc ... I do enjoy that the ANC (when not in a call) is much better than most budget earbuds around the same price point. They don’t have that dead static sound like say Soundcores liberty 4 anc."
"amazing noise cancelling"

"There is zero delay with the VR 10s."
"There is also a game mode which actually surprised me because it seemed to reduce more latency than some other TWS I've used (Tested in AAC. Game mode off: 150 ms, Game mode on: 95-110 ms)."
"the gamemode has almost no latency"

"About a year and the right bud would last about 15 minutes on a full charge."
"I've had them for a few years and now the battery doesn't last for more than 40 mins, so looking for a different model."
"And then during a race in September the mid sole of one pulled right off with less than 200 km on them."

"USE THE STOCK ONES, any other tip I tried outside the stock ones, really make the ANC WAY worse, by 60% I would say, and it’s not an exaggeration"
"having somewhat of a shittier ANC. ... For the use of buses or even home, don't even think about it, the ANC goes crazy with the sound of the engine and the passive noise reduction is almost non present. ... I'd rather not having headphones in the bus and actively listen to the engine than to have these headphones and having to actually listen to the engine as well + weird ANC noises + doghsit quality audio. ... this newer model somehow improves in actually nothing and somehow got an even worse ANC even though the first already barely even had at all. ... ANC: it does contain it, but it does not contain it. ... Bluetooth buds have one purpose which is having ANC, and sounding slightly good. These couldn't even deliver on that."
"they are not noise canceling"

"battery life is not so good in both case and earbuds"
"The one downside is that at around 15-20% battery, they do start the 'battery low' interruptions, too frequently too ... but that % is a lie, they are at the end and will shut off within minutes anyway."

"they are a huge pain to extract from their case"
"the case is kinda trash. ... Won't hold buds securely"
"I agree with you on ANC, tips, lid, shitty anime sound, volume control, cheap feeling and all of that. ... a case lid: I bought knowing it didn't came with one, so don't count it but then again be fr, they fall just by looking at them."

"the connection they use is garbage ... you'll be listening to a song and it'll drop the song several times ... do not recommend until that's fixed"
"I couldn't get these to pair properly with Windows for the life of me. ... Something with the UTF-8 Unicode not being decoded properly with Windows."
"they connect to my phone on accident often."
Aggressive-Ad6247 1.0You have said it, all reviews say it is a great tws for it's price. Useless ANC as usual. Pretty sure it's a problem with your unit or more likely just poor/bad seal. I have space travel 1 and attest to the good sound tuning.
AwkwardAdvertising10 1.0Moondrop Space Travel is a good pair. https://amzn.eu/d/dXxT85I
bardforlife 1.0I have the Moondrop Space Travel 1. Cuts out all the time while walking downtown. If you ever walk downtown in a city, near train tracks too, will you tell me if the connection was stable? Fully stable at home, though.
emptyvasudevan 1.0I have been using the space travels as my running pair for over two years, lost one and bought another one recently (old space travel 1). I agree with you on ANC, tips, lid, shitty anime sound, volume control, cheap feeling and all of that. I don't get the sound quality and sound stage part. Before buying a second pair of ST, I got a well known tws, final ze3000. I just found them slightly thin for my liking, good build aside on sound I preferred the much cheaper ST. I have expensive wired iems for daily use, and also a bluetooth dac, but sometimes I see myself coming to ST for the stage and overall fun sound. I think you have gotten a bad pair, worth checking it. If not, you just don't like it, which I understand since I hate ie600 despite universal praise. In the end, what matters is whether you enjoy it or not, not others.
Fuzzy_Luck5550 1.0Tried tons of TWS, including much more expensive stuff. Space Travel 1 with aftermarket tips is the only one I keep around anymore, because the price-to-performance ratio is out of control. Tried Sony XM4, Campfire Orbit, AirPods Pro 1, others If you want sound quality for a low price, buy wired. TWS adds features and ease of use at the expense of sound quality at every price level.
Agreed. Chu 2 wins at sound quality, and Space Travel is better with aftermarket tips. If you want TWS for cheap though, Space Travel with aftermarket tips slaps.
GeniusGamer_M 1.0Seems like Moondrop TWS prices already went up? I remember the space travel was RM70-80 but now RM100 while the block took the RM80 price bracket. i would be really surprised if OP can find a RM50 TWS that is equal or better than those two Moondrop. The space travel ANC is already quite bad to be honest but having it is better than none at all.
I'm kinda fed up with the premium wireless earbuds. Multiple Sonys and Samsungs would keep dying on me after a year which just past its warranty date. Either the battery dies or The driver does. Now I'm just using the space travels. ST1 still holds up after using it for two years. Also recently bought ST2, it's such a big upgrade from the first. Even if I lost them, I won't feel too bad since they're not expensive to buy again.
HungryMarionberry530 1.0For my part, I got the Moondrop Space Travel 1, and honestly, they’re great for the price. I wasn’t disappointed, despite some occasional audio lag issues. The sound is clear, and the Bluetooth range is quite long, which is a definite plus. BUT, after about a month of use, the mic on my left earbud started making light but unbearable crackling noises, and a few days later, it completely failed... Quite disappointing, especially at this price point. Technically, the instrument separation is quite good, the bass remains well-controlled, and the ANC works reasonably well for the price. However, the mic’s durability was disappointing—it started crackling and then failed after about a month of use.
Huzaifa_Haroon 1.0Increase your budget by just a bit and get Moondrop Space Travel, really good ANC for the price
Well they've increased in price since I got them, I only paid $20 for these 2 years ago https://a.aliexpress.com/_oECiKxM
Itchy_Willow_1140 1.0There are only 3 solid options for this price range tbh, firstly the Roseselsa Ceramics X, by far the best I've tried when it comes to sound clarity, excellent imaging, and spacious soundstage with hard hitting bass as well. Instrumental seperation is great for this price range, treble is crisp detailed however the treble can sound artificial. The second option is the qcy Melobuds pro and the third are the Moondrop space travel. Both have decent sound quality but the qcy are definitely not a pair of your looking for treble clarity imo. They all have good call quality when it comes to blocking out external noises but they all also struggle with blocking wind.
onewingedangel420 1.0yeah i got the space travel 1s after falling for all the hype and the sound of the voice assistant is so annoying that it makes me not want to use it. it's like the meme of the cheap bluetooth device being like your bluetooth device has connected successfully except made even worse
