Moondrop - Space Travel 2

Moondrop Space Travel 2 are 30 bucks if you don't mind chifi stuff. they've got ANC, too. probably not the best ANC but it's there. some of the budget chifi wired headphones have pretty good cords too.

i bought mine weeks ago and it had QC issues where the battery on the left earbud sometimes does charge and sometimes it doesn't at all (or it does, but only to 80%), and another problem with the connection issue where it would randomly disconnect while i used it. with those in mind i claimed my warranty and sent it back, it will be a while untill i can get it back. aside from the shitty QC issue, sound quality wise, at least in my personal opinion, this is the best that you can get for the price, especially with the new community parametric EQ. i find the sound to be as good as ST1, balance sound with smooth treble that won't be fatiguing for long listening session.

I too dropped my WF1000XM4 on a public bus in south Korea while on holiday... Since then jve been using rm100ish TWS earbuds like the moondrop space travel so I won't feel bad when they break or lost.

Seems 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.

Moondrop TWS earbuds are generally okay to good for the price. One main complaint i have is the poorly made app (it's even worse in the old app before they rebuilt it)

Moondrop Space Travel 2 for the best budget wireless earbuds especially at RM130 (or below).

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.

Moondrop space travel will satisfy!

No contest moondrop space travel or the new space travel 2. No contest AT ALL.

Very solid anc, solid build quality, and the sound quality is actually something worth bothering with. No other wireless buds that cheap come even close. The transparency is mediocre but everything in that budget kinda sucks at everything. The fact that their anc is perfectly decent and the sound quality is too, they also have a low latency game mode that works well, makes them stand out far beyond anyone else

Moondrop's website is so bad, lol. They emailed me announcing it in the first place. I can't speak to the 2 personally, but I have some space travel 1's as a throwaround set and they're genuinely downright good. Moondrop doesn't have a habit of making a v2 of anything worse, either. Also I really like the genuine leather case you can buy for it. Really ups the premium feel of the case.

space travel 2s are great for the sound quality for the price but not ANC. earfun air 4 pro would be the option for ANC TWS under $100

Okay, so I just got the Moondrop Space Travel 2, and...... just wow. Retail these are $30, I got these for less than $19. These are one of the best IEMs for the price, let alone one that is wireless AND has ANC too. The design is subjective, but I like it enough. The buds themselves are super comfortable, though they don't isolate enough imo. I'll need to buy some foam tips and try them out. The stem design means it picks up wind noise, a lot. Quite annoying when its windy, especially because the isolation isn't very good. The case tho, I like the design but it's just stupid, form over function. Putting the buds back in and out is annoying af cause you can't drop it in like other buds. And the charging port is Apple Mouse levels of dumb. The sound quality is seriously impressive. There's legit instrument separation, and the bass is tight, very controlled. It does not feel like a pair of budget buds at all. The separation is actually quite impressive, sounds feel like it’s coming from a different spaces in the buds. Soundstage though is standard IEM, you won't feel like it's some Dolby surround sound at all. Highs are clear, clarity is really quite good. Great thing about these is the online DSP really changes how it sounds so you can custom it to what you like. These got a nice battery boost over MST V1, hence why I bought them (I don't own the older ones so can't compare). About 4-5 hours with ANC on. ANC is actually quite usable, background hums and noises are noticeably quieter but obviously not going to be as good as the 10x more expensive Airpods Pro. The transparency mode tho sounds super weird, almost like you’re hearing your surroundings through a phone call. Unfortunately, there’s one huge huge issue. When you watch YouTube there’s a huge lag before the sound starts, like one whole second. It feels like a software bug that Moondrop can fix but idk if they are working on it. Super frustrating. I really hope they fix it because this is a very very good pair of buds. Like absolutely go ahead right now and buy it good.

MST2 solves this. There's a low medium high gain now in the app

Game mode on the buds. Tap four times on the earbud

Edit: some more annoyances for me: The light on the case lights up for MINUTES. I timed it, and got bored after 5 mins. Very annoying when it's bedtime. Moondrop, I know the buds are in the case and on charge because I put them in. 3 seconds of light is enough, not 30 mins. The touch panels are way too sensitive. Even trying to readjust the buds in your ears will trigger them. The waifu sounds. I personally don't like them, but it's up to you. But they're still there from MST V1.

So you want something that has a normal price and doesnt have to be good and can connect to devices? So literally any earbuds? Just save yourself some money and buy the moondrop space travel 2 if you have 0 expectations. You cant connect bluetooth devices to a ps5 though, which is virtually every earbud that isnt $200.

If they all work get the cheaper space travel. If it breaks its only $20-30 for a new one, or just get it replaced with warranty.

I think it's important to point out the exact reasons you don't like them (not much bass, not much treble) are exactly why they're easily my favorite TWS IEM for sound quality. People just hear and prefer differently, no big deal.

Dogshit, same as Space Travel 1's being more uncomfortable and having somewhat of a shittier ANC. People excuse these headphones for being cheap but they're not, for 30 bucks there's better sounding alternatives from many of the mainstream tech brands. With the pain of my soul, DO NOT BUY THIS PAIR even on a budget. The sound is not good, lacks bass, and it's not because of a balanced shape, it simply lacks bass, and the trebles aren't super crisp either, mids are always a non expectation at this price but even then it manages to disappoint. 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. And to have an even worse experience the multi point connection on the headphones doesn't even work, I downloaded the app, I turn the option on, and it asks for me to agree, I agree and does nothing. The slider stays off, and I repeated the process thousands of times. I can't be more mad, and dissapointed at these headphones, the first model were already unpleasantly dissapointing but 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. I don't know how crinnacle and other YouTubers can recommend this garbage product, please do not listen to them, I don't know how, it's got to be price range bias, but even then 30 bucks can offer way more, not this bs. Dogshit pair, 4.9/10, somehow even more dissapointing than the first pair. 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. I've seen better pairs for 12 bucks, this is simply inexcusable. Idgaf about no price, no Moondrop branding, this is garbage, and shouldn't be bought, nor sold, nor recommended by anyone.

Redmi Buds 6 / Redmi Buds 6 Lite both have it under 30 dollars. They do sound better even tho they are more v shaped, they include a far superior comfy casing, they have a better pairing method, and have better ANC. Moondrop was supposed to be an audiophile oriented brand, how can they deliver this much of a terrible product. I think it's a complete mess. I expected the bare minimum, and that was too much for this product. I simply find it unacceptable and an insult for anyone trusting with their pockets on them. At that point why even sell something like this?

I know I come off as a hater (and don't get me wrong, I hate this product) but I honestly find it a product that's lacking: - sound quality: lacks bass, trebles aren't crisp or good sounding either, they sound muffled, mids are a bit clearer but far from crisp. - sound stage - 2 device connections (advertised but not delivered) - ANC: it does contain it, but it does not contain it. - comfortable ear tips: I bought Moondrop Chu one time and they came with better ear tips, the plastic tips that came with the pair are uncomfortable and make my ears hurt just like the first pair did, on even short 2 minute versions. - the sound for feedback is awful, is like a plastic bag getting popped at -100 dB - 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. - QC control: my pair came with the transparent casing scratched on every side, the first pair scratched with time, this pair came scratched right out of the box. - overpriced: 30 bucks for this can get you so much more, I don't want the margins are but must be huge. - no volume control: why the fuck can't you select what buttons do, even the older pair had this feature, some people claimed it did had at the beginning but you couldn't put volume control. Then again, Redmi buds from Xiaomi at 12 dollars come with a Google fast pair + volume controls. - they feel super cheap: and they are kinda cheap but the plastic feels empty, lacks weight and it feels like the components are floating in it's casing rather than being protected by it. Apart from it being black and green, this is a direct downgrade from the first pair. Use your money smartly do not buy this shit. It's like using nothing, but with a bit of music coming on. I think this is garbage. 4.9/10 is way too high and the 4.9 is just because they play music, that's it. These do NOT work as earbuds at all, they can't even work properly outside the house and that point why would you even pick these if you're home. I'm never buying shit from Moondrop again I'm sorry. Bluetooth buds have one purpose which is having ANC, and sounding slightly good. These couldn't even deliver on that. Garbage.

I could not agree more. Bought these recently and I’m genuinely disappointed after having it hyped up by the masses. Sound is good but nothing worth shouting from the rooftops about. Even considering the price. ANC is pretty pointless. I’ve noticed certain frequencies, my bedroom fan for example actually gets amplified, but at a different frequency to the source. As if the ANC is misidentifying the sound and instead of playing 180 degree out of phase it plays a sound in conjunction with the original noise of the fan. You can drown it out with music but what’s the point ? I’d rather better sounding earbuds with no ANC than something that barely does the job. Although it’s not a dealbreaker I’ve also noticed that when no music is playing I can hear a quiet beep in the left ear, not sure what it is but sounds like interference or feedback. Very quiet, but one of the big reasons I love ANC is to just cut out background noise to focus without music sometimes. The biggest gripe I have with them is that they fit horribly. Some of the worst fitting earbuds I’ve ever worn, and my ears have historically been pretty universal when it comes to fit. The tips that come with them are genuinely awful, they don’t seal properly. I don’t feel like spending time and effort to find tips that fit nicely and also allow them to still fit into the case. I borrowed a pair from some IEM’s that sealed good but they didn’t transform the sound and wouldn’t fit into the case nicely. If we ignore the tips, the earbuds themselves are just uncomfortable to wear for any longer than 30 minutes. If I’d picked these up on a whim because I saw them randomly and needed some new cheap TWS earbuds. I’d probably be fairly happy. But the fact these have been so hyped up and I went out of my way to get hold of a pair, I’m left with a slightly sour taste in my mouth. I’m not saying what other people are saying isn’t true. Everyone’s opinion is subjective and so is their experience. But I’m with you on these. Disappointing.

I'm going to recommend two kinds of earbuds: an In-Ear Monitor (IEM) and a True Wireless Stereo (TWS). If you want a budget-entry IEM, [7Hz Salnotes Zero](https://shopee.ph/7Hz-Salnotes-Zero-HiFi-10mm-Dynamic-Driver-In-Ear-Earphone-IEM-Metal-Composite-Diaphragm-N52-Magnet-3.5mm-with-Mic-i.174314413.24521700091) is a great choice for your money for its bright neutral sound signature which is a great starting point if you like to play competitive eSports titles such as Valorant or Counter-Strike 2. There is also three DSP variants where its termination is a USB-Type C. The DSP variant only has an in-line microphone and is priced at ₱779. Take advantage with vouchers to lessen the price! For an affordable TWS, then let me introduce to you the [Moondrop Space Travel 2](https://shopee.ph/Moondrop-Space-Travel-2-HiFi-Noise-Cancelling-True-Wireless-AI-ANC-Bluetooth-6.0-TWS-Earphones-i.182669784.42809033988) (₱1,699). It might be sound boring than the first iteration than the [Moondrop Space Travel 1](https://shopee.ph/Moondrop-Space-Travel-Active-Noise-Cancelling-Touch-Control-Bluetooth-5.3-True-Wireless-TWS-Earphone-i.182669784.20082532911) especially if you like bass, however it's one of the most natural sounding while being a cheap TWS so far. But hey, it has somewhat better ANC (but obviously, not the best) and better battery life than the first one. You can also watch [Hangout․Audio's Impressions](https://youtu.be/MzCJsH5Vw0Y) video to see how the microphone quality sounds like.

I dont know if it exists on the space travel 2, but on my space travel’s they have an option for “game mode” that reduces the lag a decent amount by tapping on an earbud 4 times

SpaceTravel Moon Drops are pretty good poorpods.

balanced sound on the moondrop space travel has been excellent for me.

Baseus Ez10, i currently own these. The quality is amazing, battery lasts for 5 hours and the case has 4 extra charges in it. The sound is good enough, they come with software to customize equalizer, touch gestures, gps tracking and alarm sound in case you loose one or both. And they're currently $8 on sale. If you can spend a bit more I'd recommend the Moondroops space travel, amazing quality for the price. I unfortunately lost mine and was in a hurry to get them replaced and had no money, that's why i got the EZ10 and don't regret it. But i'mma buy them again ASAP. I believe these currently go for around $25 with their special leather case wich i believe is a must have for them.

I got the moondrop space travel after my cmf bud died

Best bang for buck; Moondrop Space travel. And for a little bit more Moondrop Moca if you don't like the Space travel design.  Better option; galaxy buds 2 pro. IPhone users choice; airpods pro 2. İn recommend taking a look at other peoples recommendations as well btw. 

Amazing SQ, but durability not so great. My wife's pair stopped working after about 1 year, one of the earbuds stopped charging. Oh, and you have to put up with an obnoxious anime girl voice for all the prompts.

Thanks for the review, I sold the Moon Travel as I was disappointed in them and now I look at something else :)

The seal in moondrop are good. Quite hazardous for jogging outside.

Get the moondrop space travel, probably the best bang for your buck. Good sound quality and okay-ish noise cancelling

Never try it while running. they fit quite nicely in my ear, so I reckon they are comfy for running, but I'm not sure if they fit tight enough to not fall out

i paid $20cad or maybe a hair less on an ali sale for those and they are legit incredible for the price.

Space travel Moondrop. 4 taps enable game mode, feels instant. Also very cheap and surprisingly good audio quality. Didn’t like the feat, but it’s not bad, it’s just not as comfortable as iPhone AirPod

I would go for: Moondrop space travel is a safe choice for sound, they're very underwhelming in anc and are pretty flimsy( the only pair of earbuds that I had break into pieces) OnePlus buds 3 is very good with equalization, I got it to sound better than anything wireless before 200 usd, so best potential by far imo. Pretty sharp sounding stock, although you can partly fix it with companion app without diving deeper, also many people like their stock sound. Anc is great for the price and they're very slick and well-built. Ali 50 dollars Soundpeats air 4 pro are just nice. Very inoffensive sound, they lack high frequencies, but that's a blessing in disguise as they're not sharp. Kinda natural sound. Eq can make them better but isn't necessary at all. I would say that anc is a bit worse than buds 3, but very usable... unlike space travels. Well built. They're not a current model, wait for a sale on aliexpress and you can get them for 50. It's more like 65 now if I'm not mistaken.

Seconded! I’ve had a pair for a couple years and it’s insane value for what I paid for ($25)

I've been using the Moondrop Space Travel IEMs. For under 30, pretty solid isolation, ANC, and latency in game mode is great. Only two cons. 1) The anime waifu sounds to switch between modes of ANC is a bit absurd, but that's personal preference. 2) 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. However, no problem with Steam Deck or iOS, but just a consideration to keep in mind.

Moondrop Space Travel Sound great. ANC is just ok, functionality is more than good for what you’re paying for. Has an app to customize touch controls, EQ settings, but very rudimentary. Can buy on Amazon for $30 with next day shipping, or buy from a few other sites for $25.

My experience is pretty much the same. Still rocking these sound quality is good but I have connection issues and the buds are still connected after they are in the case occasionally. Usually just putting a bit more pressure so they make contact with the pins fixes this. Surprisingly a lot of cheaper earbuds have caught up in sound quality and ANC. I also occasionally listen with a $20 pair of Moon drop space travels and the sound blows me away for the price point.

Absolutely nothing beats $20 to $30 wired IEMs. They will match $400 wireless cans. True wireless ear buds can't compare at any price point. Nothing wireless can compare to a pair of Chu II on sale now at Amazon for $18. Not even the JBL Quantum TWS for $149 If you must buy wireless, look at the Moondrop space travel TWS on Amazon on sale for about $24 and maybe the additional leather case for $10 for a total of $34ish Hard to go wrong with any of them. But I'd go wired if quality of sound or positional audio is most important to you

I use a Moondrop Spacetravel and it works fine

u should give moondrop space travels from aliexpress a try they are very good they are for around 7k but they sound very good compared to any other audionic crap that i tried before and it has a seperate anc mode that is insanely good and a conversation mode as well been using them for 7months now battery lasts for like a whole day or 2 of use

My beater moondrop space travels. If they break, I can replace them for less than the price of [this](https://www.costco.com/.product.100403275.html) clif kid z bar variety pack at costco.

Moondrop Space Travel, it is pretty damn good for 25 bucks

Get the Samsung Buds FE these are decent good Earbuds for any genre of music. Look up on YouTube for reviews. The majority are highly positive. I use this buds as my main. Moondrop Space Travel is on the best earbuds at that price point. Build Quality and volume are okay. I also own one of this for backups and gaming (low latency mode).

I use jabra at work but Moondrop is very nice and not expensive at all. moondrop space travel is very nice and not expensive at all. I have 3 sets because my kids keep stealing them.

I will only run with Shokz because it allows me to be aware of my surroundings, it makes it so much safer. If you’re looking for a higher quality earbud at a low price to pair with it and stay at your budget, the Moondrop Space Travel for $30 are hard to beat.

Thanks for the quick answer, i will be going with MD Space Travel, it’s a little cheaper even importing, and it comes with leather fabric case for protection. My priority for the price range is sound quality without wires for the lesser price possible.

Moondrops space travel. Had them. And its awesome

Moondrop space travel, they sound great but will maybe last you 1.5 years.

Stay away from random Chinese junk brands. They will only disappoint. If you’re on a budget, the Moondrop Space Travel are a really good option at their price point

Moondrop Space Travel is $25.👍

I've been a bit disappointed with the wf-1000xm5 noise cancelling. I need to try different ear tips before giving up on them. My old xm3 seem better than the xm5 Denon Perl Pro, also not that impressed with. Maybe they are too sealed and don't like the feeling and sound quality hasn't clicked for me with personalisation on or off. Soundcore 4 NC, are ok at most things but wouldn't be rushing to use them Moondrop space travel look nice in case, sound pretty good for the price, fit isn't the most comfortable My items not on the list. Most impressed with the soundpeats opera 5, weird fit but great sound, my original Samsung bud pro for convenience and solid performance and the Sony wf-1000xm3 bulky but great noise cancelling

Moondrop space travel!

I'm so glad you like em! I just wish they had better dust/lint protection, but the sound is the real star of the show

Moondrop Space Travel please for the love of God if you want budget that is as cheap and quality as you can get

I'm honestly pretty happy with my moondrop space travels but i dont have expensive taste.

I would recommend Moondrop Chu 2. They are In Ear Monitors (IEMs). Watch the video Best Iems under 2k on the Headphones Zone channel for the review. But they don't have mics. I have the Moondrop Space Travel TWS earbuds and holy fuck they are really good. Definitely get these under 2k. Check out IEMs for gaming if you wanna research this topic. As an audiophile you'll definitely love what you find! And the best part is it's gonna be extremely fun to listen to music too!! (If you haven't ever used high end audio gear then it will be an eyeopener. If you live in Mumbai go to their store!! You'll thank me lol)

Yes but you'll need to find what you like!! I like bass and ketamine so i picked Moondrop Chu2. If you like more Pop and melody you'll do well with the Tangzu Wan'er. There's reviews for each and there's an extremely helpful video by indian audiophile gear store "Headphoneszone" on youtube about "Best iems under 2k". Google their website and you'll find everything you need. Remember Chu2 has no mic whereas Moondrop Space travel has a mic inbuilt!! Iems generally wont come with mics sadly cuz audiophiles are introverts who don't talk to anyone and spend their entire day tuning and equing headphones and listening to niche songs and crying.

You'll definitely enjoy bass mate!! Most of the genres you've mentioned use bass and drums as a base. Hiphop and Trap music is bass heavy. Kanye is really drum heavy with his 808s (my fav album along with Yeezus!!) You'll love the drums on Chu2 and Space Travel!! Try going for a V shaped graph IEM!! Also again the mic issue is there with wired iems hence why I whole heartedly reccomend the Moondrop Space Travel. Do your own research and tell me if it's right for you! I'll help you out if you wanna know which earphones are bass heavy and which are neutral and which are for vocals!!

It depends on what you want. If you want the convenience of using the Apple ecosystem, then any AirPods are good for an iPhone since they are a first-party accessory. But if you want a ready-made budget TWS, any sub RM200 is already good enough. I've been using Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus for almost 5 years since launch, and still going strong. It's quite a balanced tuning. Right now, I'm rocking Moondrop Space Travel, Redmi buds 6 lite, and QCY HT15 (already given to my girlfriends). All have solid listening experience, but the main reason we're all going to TWS is the convenience of not having wires attached. I would always rock with my iems if at home, but going ou,t my other TWS are good for enjoying your music or answering call outside. Like your friends said, it's not worth the money since you can get a good enough function as TWS from another brand rather than paying for overpriced AirPods.

My Arias just went through the wash 2 weeks ago, still doing great! Lol I haven’t tried the chus yet, but my space travel get occasional use, as well as my SSR. The SSR is fine, perfectly acceptable tuning, but nothing really sticks out and shines, kinda boring, I mostly break them out when I know I going to just be listening to podcasts/audiobooks. The space travels are a bit too rounded off at the top and bottom ends for me to be fully satisfied with them, but shit, $25 for tws with a good 4-6 hours of battery life? I’ll recommend them all day everyday.

Moondrop Space Travel. Best $30 tws

99% of buds will come with silicone tips but you can just pick up a set of tws foam tips on amazon. Ive got tips for all my different buds and iems. Even my AirPods Pro 2 has foam tips on them. Depends on your budget: $30 Moondrop Space Travel, $70 Aviot Q3, $150 Liberty 4 Pro, $200 Technics AZ80, $300 Technics AZ100, $450 Devialet Gemini 2. I own all of these plus more. Different buds for different genres, moods, and situations.

I’ve been using a pair of Moondrop Space Travel wireless earbuds since they were released in 2023 and they have been great. They sound good, work good, look good and the best part is they were only $25 when I got them. They are $30 now but it’s still a bargain considering they have ANC and are just really good.

Moondrop space travel. They are like $25 and great.

My kid has the CMF buds and he loves them, although I like the features more than the sound quality. I picked up a pair of Moondrop Space Travel buds and the sound quality is absolutely ludicrous for 25$, almost as good as my Sennheiser’s that were stolen; crisp miss and highs, bass is strong and present but not overwhelming. I never dreamed earbuds that cheap would sound so good. I could live without the anime theme, but it doesn’t bother me much either.

nobody has mentioned them, but Moondrop Space Travel. they sound by far the best, and they are sub 20 pounds.

The Moondrop space travel are definitely a good option for sound quality for the price they are at. I personally love them although I think the Roseselsa and earfun sound better. The design is nice and although they don't have sweat resistance, they are a solid option for sound quality of that's what you want. Also I'm glad I could help:)

I have the space travel since last year, yeah they are pretty good for music listening under 20€, just bear in mind their max volume is kinda low, battery life is not so good in both case and earbuds and they are a huge pain to extract from their case.

Honestly, I'd get seven pairs of Moondrop Space Travels and call it a day.

Ok so I’ve made comments on this before and if you’re interested maybe go hunt them down, but the MOONDROP Space Travel are $30 CAD earbuds that in game mode straight up have no latency and still sound fantastic. They work perfectly with the deck, have active Noise Cancelling, and every single member of my family has been using a pair for over a year now as their only pairs of earbuds. We all have no plans of ever switching to anything else. I own AirPod Pros (1st gen) as well and I honestly think the Space Travels sound noticeably better. And if you seriously don’t like them, it’s like 22$ USD on Amazon, effortless to return.

Move from AirPods Pro to AZ100. Crazy difference. Even €20 Moondrop Space travel sound better then AirPods though.

Moondrop Space travel are under $30 and sound good.

Indeed isolates very well, with anything playing and anc you pretty much dont hear external noises even at low volumes, transparent mode is great and theres 5 eqs on the app that are fairly different from one another, a BIG upgrade from my previous bluetooth earphone from the same brand (the space travel). Price is around 100 and it also is probably the most comfortable earphone ive had so far, my most recent ones being the space travel and the chu ii's

Moondrop Space Travel. It is literally the best bluetooth earbuds I have ever used in terms of sound quality. Sooooo cheap. I have 2 pairs just in case.

Maybe take a look at the moondrop space travels. I got them on a whim because they were stupid cheap, but I've been pleasantly surprised by them

On the budget side, the moondrop space travel are pretty great, the sound is pretty comparable to my Sony wf-1000xm5, which costs about 10x as much. The anc is not as good, but it does work, and for $40 aud, what more can you ask for

Moondrop Space Travel is great

moondrop space travel, quite cheap been using that for 3 years with no problem.. the sound is great for the price u pay

Space travel is good like the other comments said, but the case is kinda trash. Won't hold buds securely and they connect to my phone on accident often.

Moondrop space travel but can be found on Amazon cheaper some times

I’ve had a pair of space travels for about 2 years now, and they’re great. Unfortunately, I may have recently broken the charging case after going on a rather extreme hiking trip where everything in my bag got wet and the case itself filled up with water. Need to do a bit more testing, but I’ve just been charging them in the old Nekocakes case.

Wireless earbuds. I am using the moondrop space travel, which has a gaming mode for low latency. It is a great pair of light weight earbuds for 20 bucks

They're pretty light for their size and the case doesn't come with a top. I can see them breaking easily if you're clumsy or if you're rough with things

My moondrop space travel died within a month be careful of qc issues

Second this. I own a pair and they beat my 150$ GB2

Came back to say thank you, it's so good😭love the design too

Moondrop space travel are pretty sweet for that price

They do occasionally work themselves loose

Pretty sure the Moondrop Space Travel can be had for under 35 CAD and basically sweeps any TWS under 100 CAD. Of course you can get better audio quality wired, but if we're just talking TWS then there isn't really a better option IMO.

I use them when I was doing 5k runs and no problems. They’re so cheap that if they break, it literally doesn’t matter anyways imo. The space travels are a steal at that price range.

Unfortunately, you're pretty much stuck with those as your best choice. Try out Moondrop Space Travel if you dont want to break the bank but have good sound. ANC is meh Could get a pair of WF-1000XM5s but not being on an android phone means you don't get to use them to their fullest (LDAC). Although you will have the best in ANC.

Pretty much. Galaxy Buds work well especially if you have a Samsung phone. (Features) Especially in the sub 60usd space. Only other option are the Moondrop Space Travel, whose quality of audio is better. The NC is weak, and volume doesn't go up for those who are nearly deaf like me. $27 If you're lucky to find one below $60, the AKG N400NC are amazing and the closest I've gotten to XM5 level of audio and NC but they ate discontinued and AKG cleared the stock at $40. All metal construction, battery life (both case and buds) is decent, tips subjective. If you go expensive, XM5 are the best imo. LDAC, battery life, best ANC, foam tips, vast amount of features, etc.

I've tried a bunch of cheap TWS, so if by earbuds, you mean TWS, here are my picks under 40. Best earbuds without tips, buds like normal airpods UNDER $40 1. Oppo Enco Air 3 2. SoundPeats Air 3 Deluxe HS Best all-around choice (best combo of ANC, sound, codecs, app support, battery, call quality, multipoint etc.) UNDER $40 1. QCY Melobuds Pro 2. Soundcore A3i or Soundcore A20i Best Sound Quality UNDER $40 1. Moondrop Space Travel 2. SoundPeats Engine4 My personal choice overal: Moondrop Space Travel These are Bluetooth buds that I've tried that are likely $40 or less (at l least when on sale) that I think are the best choice, depending on what you are looking for. The Melobuds Pro are likely the best you can get OVERALL, because they have decent sound, multipoint, good battery, good ANC/Transparency, lots of features, LDAC, and a adequate app that helps customization. Most earbuds like this are closer to the $100 range. It's on sale in my country for 45 right now, but likely cheaper in the US. The Soundcore A3i and A20i both great performers that are tuned with the typical big bass of Soundcore, but the mids and treble are actually more balanced than most buds. It comes with the excellent Soundcore app support which is one of the better apps in all of TWS in my opinion. You get custom EQ settings, touch control, and more - if you are a bass head, these would be a good choice. If you like airpod-style earbuds without rubber/silicone/foam tips, the Oppo Enco Air 3 is better than the airpods 2 or 3, and a fraction of the price. It's hard to find/buy where I am, so the SoundPeats Air 3 Deluxe HS was a close second with some cool features. For sound quality alone, I don't think I have heard anything better than the SoundPeats Engine4 in this price range. It's about 50 in my country but likely cheaper elsewhere. It has LDAC, and dual drivers to present very clear sound. The Engine4 is tuned very neutral with a strong boost to the lower bass, which I enjoy. Only issue is that it does NOT have ANC or Transparency mode, which prevents it from being up there with the Melobuds Pro as an all-arounder. My favourite choice of them all is the Moondrop Space Travel. It is one of the best tuned earbuds ever (in my opinion), and comes with 3 EQ presets for different bass levels (moderate bass, extra bass, monitor flat bass response). It is only $20, and while the plastic and case clearly show it, the buds themselves punch way above their price range. There is no multipoint or high res codec support, but it sounds great and has an app. The app is kinda shitty and only works with Android at the moment, but you can map controls, choose your tuning, and have access to surprisingly good ANC and transparency modes. I was blown away when I first bought these as the performance for the $20 price tag was amazing, and despite not being the bass cannons that I gravitate to, the tuning was fantastic out of the box. Something to note is that Moondrop just came out with the Moondrop Moca, which is apparently very similar to the Space Travel, just better tech/features, and is around $40, but I haven't tested it yet - I have heard good things though. I can't vouch for it, but my guess is it would be a good choice if you want the best sound/tuning while still enjoying ANC, transparency, etc.

Apparent moondrop is releasing a sequel of their lauded Space Travel. The Space Travel 2 is cheap, just like it's predecessor, but it has EQ, ANC, button mapping, and more. The tuning on the Space travel is one of the most clean and smooth ever made. I have dozens of TWS, from higher-end models like Denon Perl Pro, Momentum True Wireless 4, AZ80s, as well as a tonne of cheaper models. If you are looking for cheap TWS, the Moondrop Space Travel is the first place I'd look. I would also consider looking for a deal on Galaxy FE buds, the KZ Xtra or maybe the Melobuds pro. You should be able to find those under $50, and those are the best bang-for-your-buck buds I've tried at this price point. Depending on what you value more - sound quality, features, ANC strength, transparency, button mapping, comfort, bass heavy / flat / sparkling treble, battery life, etc., would affect what I'd recommend, but the Space Travel are great all - rounders for very cheap, and I imagine the new Space Travel 2 is going to be even better.

I have the Space Travel also, kaso ang hina na nung output niya. For good ANC, the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC is decent. You can even get it as low as 2-3k PHP sa Lazada if you have lazcoins.

Moondrop Space Travel BY FAR

Moon drop space I have these. In my opinion are not that great. For people with small ears like myself would get really uncomfortable after 15mins. Depends on the style you like. I prefer the space a40s or the Tozo a1s

I second the Space Travel too. A very solid budget pair of buds that hurt less to replace. Still have mine after over 6 months of usage.

Soundcore A40s go on sale quite often, and are really solid for their price point. Got mine for around $45. It’s listed now for $59, but if you save it for later, Amazon will track the price changes and inform you when you check the cart. I’m also a fan of the Moondrop Space Travel. At $30, it too also goes on sale. It is a little cheap feeling. But the audio is actually not too bad. Same with the battery too. The case is a little clunky. But it is manageable.

Yeah, Space Travel is really good. I alternate it between my Airpods Pro 2, and I like the difference day to day. Much better value than a store-bought equivalent for sure

I second this. They are great and make a awesome gift.

TWS will never be BIFL. So my strategy is cheap but good ones. Moondrop Spacetravel are extremely hard to beat in that category, and price is so low you would be STUPID not to at least try them. If you want to get closer to BIFL, look for IEMs with removable cable and a BT DAC/AMP

I think I might get those, lots of people recommend Jlab but my brother used to have a pair and they sounded not as good as my previous pair (tozo) which just broke so I think i will get the moondrop ones, they seem to be very good and their other expensive earbuds look very high quality and so do their cheap ones! Thank you

Moondrop Space Traveller maybe? Since you said gym, I understand you mean wireless. With some coupons and codes, I managed to get the Moondrop for like 20 eur from AliE and it's good, very good. Not sure about how it compares to Skullcandy and other cheap buds.

+1 space travel for cheap if you turn on anc it will cause fatigue after a while 

Not being sarcastic, want to see his reviews to get a point of reference. Ive owned moondrop space travel and currently have tanchjim mino and moondrop robin

Moondrop Space Travel for under 30. They have anc but its mid. Sound quality and price more than makes up for it tho

Wildly overpriced. - If you want earbuds with a NRR, get Isotunes or Klein for way cheaper. - If you just want wireless earbuds in a cool case with similar or better sound quality get the Moondrop Space Travel for $25 (shockingly good for the price) - If you want to spend this budget but get something that actually sounds good, get Airpod Pros or Pixel buds/Galaxy buds There’s no situation where these earbuds make sense other than wanting to throw money at Milwaukee, they’re wildly overpriced.

I misplaced my AirPods for like the last 2 months or so, so I needed to get a decent cheap pair. I tried the moon drop space travel and found a pair of Tozo’s on sale for like $12. I wish the moon drops were louder. I was listening to an audio book on Audible and it was pretty low. They did alright with Spotify and Apple Podcasts/Apple Music. I did get them with a silicone case so I haven’t had a problem with them falling out or anything. I think I like the fit of these better bc they’re like the AirPods but I’d say the TOZO’s are better at cancelling noise (they’re more of like the in ear fit, no “stems” idk if that’s the right word) The TOZO’s (A1 model) I got are solid. They’ve got an app too (maybe moon drop does, idk.) and being able to mix it/change it depending on what you’re listening to is cool. I didn’t check the levels on Audible but they’re good for Spotify and Apple Podcasts/music. They’re both not bad for the money. Haven’t really checked the battery life/tried to run them out. I usually use them for 2 hours, or so, at a time. I rotate them out. (Even though I did finally find my AirPods, I’m prob going to keep those safe and use the others for travel/outings lol)

Moondrop Space Travel TWS for $29 are an amazing pair of wireless buds

I also saw them. Way prefer the aesthetics of the first version though...does it appear like they improved them sound-wise at all?

Moondrop Space Travel. F T W!

I would recommend the Moondrop Space Travel. Just enable the bass boost in the app, and they sound amazing. If you can get a discount, I would highly recommend the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The best sounding earbuds I’ve ever tried

I recommend the Moondrop Space Travel. Watch the reviews. I got one, and its decent. I prefer the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro more, but it is significantly more expensive.

IMO & to my ears, the Tozo Crystal Pods are likely tops in value for $20. Even took it on a flight & ANC was pretty good, likely blocking out 80+% of the rumble. Sound is adequate - good in a busy noisy enviroment. And there's even an app The KZ Carol is also a viable choice with a well balanced sound & fast bass with good slam. ANC is a notch below the Tozos. Moondrop Space Travel is very comfy with a more laid back sound. All 3 are viable choices as best value in class but with its own particular SQ characteristics & their own strengths & weaknesses. YMMV ofcos

For something super budget friendly yet gets the job done you can try Moondrops Space Travel. Battery life is much better than AirPods too! I use it for most runs after being disappointed by AirPods charging issue over and over again. You can order from AliExpress!

I use the MoonDrop Space travel earphones. Pretty good for the price and they fit my ears pretty well. Your milage may vary. Usually can find em on shopee for around RM100

If you want a real good budget pair with great noise cancellation and battery life, check out moon drop space travel ear buds. Also fit great. Get the white ones not the black ones.

I'm a huge fan of the Moondrop Space Travel. Great sound for the price and they fit my ears really well. The noise cancelling isn't the best but I ain't gonna complain at the $30 price point. Battery life ain't too shabby either

Yeah I will say I'm still not a huge fan of the open style case they have. Hope the hiking trip was a blast otherwise though! Need to go on one of those myself soon.

Ahh the smoking buds, what a smokin pile of trash that was when i started my audio journey with the originals. Glad to hear they are atill the same Anyway, for a TWS under $30 you only have one good option, the moondrop space travel

I used KZ AZ09 with my 7hz Salnotes Zero and they slapped hard for real. Quality was way better than the Moondrops Space Travel and they had very good low latency for gaming. Though the Space Travel was also great.

Moon drop audio quality is amazing for the price. but the connection they use is garbage and you'll be listening to a song and it'll drop the song several times. do not recommend until that's fixed.

I came from Samsung Galaxy Buds Live (free*),Moondrop Space Travel, KZ Z1, KZ ZSN Pro (wired) My Moondrop space travel broke so I wish I could get Moondrop Moca but I can't find any sellers in my country. So I decided on Redmi Buds 6 Pro because I think they offer the most features for the price but apparently it came with one HUGE disappointment. Redmi Buds 6 pro compared to every other I had before this is the most "curated" one, I mean the support is amazing for the app. There is a native Android pairing support (y'know that 3d animation that shows up on your phone at the first time you pair it), then in Bluetooth settings you already can find almost everything the buds offers: 3 levels of anc and transparency, swipe and touch controls, dual connectivity toggle, in-device rename, even basic EQ preset selections. If you download the app it gets wilder: adaptive sound signature, adaptive anc, 3D surround with head tracking, full custom EQ and so on. I've never had this most support out of an earbuds before except when I tried Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 2 my friend had and I'm genuinely surprised I can find one for $65 I paid for this Buds 6 pro. Then there is the latency, good I guess. In SBC I nailed 180ms ±5ms, AAC 250ms, and LDAC 300ms. Considering the fastest SBC gaming-mode tws I had was Spaces Travel at 140ms ±20ms, this is already impressive. I guess it's good enough for games but the latency still isn't wired experience. The codec LDAC actually makes a difference. I always find this Space Travel lacking in staging when the music gets busy, as if they are condensed onto one while so, then it gets "wide" again when there is a piano or guitar solo. Apparently it's AAC codec limitation as when I tried LDAC the music stays as "wide" and unlimited as it gets no matter what. This is the feeling I had in KZ ZSN pro being wired that I missed... There is no compression at all at audio data and so there is no that weird "tunneling" effect when the music gets busy. Okay didn't I mention I LOVE the build quality of this Redmi buds 6 pro. I don't know what polycarbonate they used but this one feels smooth, cold, premium to the touch. The case is small but hefty. The lid, the magnets, the weight are all solid and no compromises. This is far from Buds Live that feels hollow, or space travel that feels cheap, don't mention me Z1 because it's just a toy plastic, meh. I hope this lasts longer than my Space Travel. Lastly the horrible realization that hit me hard when I finally got my hand on my buds 6 is... The Bass... Or should I say BAAAAASSSSSSSSS. Remember that they pitched this as having 3 DD, well they sure did because the bass is insanely punchy, powerful, and deep like I've never had. Space Travel has this balanced sound right, well I'm surprised this one being this pricey is too bassy. There is a redeeming factor tho, the EQ I mentioned before has "Enhanced Treble" that well finally balanced it well. In the end the sound quality is powerful, soundstage is on par with other in-ear, and mostly while the bass can be punchy, the mid and vocal stays present if Enhanced Treble is used. Oh he ANC is insane. I tried Airpods pro (first gen) and the ANC feeling is similar. Redmi 6 buds managed to make any low-frequency and mid noise go away, no matter if it's a car, train, AC unit, and busy areas. The only thing passing through are >4khz sounds like pitching noises and kids, but they still get suppressed a lot anyway so still good. What I love is the additional setting for transparency where we can isolate voices. So it gives a bit of superhuman hearing for voices but less environment bleed (except fans and wind still goes thro, anything around 1khz sounds will get amplified). Overall, it's an okay buds with bassy sound that I hope you tune it before use... A ton of features for the price, nearing the software support of Samsung Galaxy buds for Samsung devices. I don't recommend this if you went after the best sounding but for best overall go ahead. Especially if you have a Xiaomi/Redmi/POCO phone because as I've heard some reviewers had bad connectivity issues while using Sony and iphones.

I got the Moondrop Space Travel, and was apprehensive about the case and the volume. The case was actually fine without a, lid, but you can buy a lid (eg on AliExpress) and the volume wasn't great until I experimented with different earbuds to get a better seal which made a massive difference.

You guys aren’t kidding, these things are an insane value at $25. I also own the following earbuds: Nothing Ear 2 Denon Perl AP Pro 2 Moto Buds+ OP Buds Pro 2 1MORE Aero & Colorbuds Cleer Ally Plus II LG Tone T90Q Phillips Fidelio T1 Status Between 3ANC And if I’m being honest…. I’d put the Moondrops up against most of these earbuds. They easily outperform both of the 1More earbuds and the Cleer Ally Plus IIs, I’d rate them honestly about on par with the LG Tone T90Qs & Oneplus Buds Pro 2, with my Status Between 3ANCs, my Moto Buds+, my AirPods Pro 2 bringing up 6th-4th on my list. My top three are the Denon Perls, the Phillip Fidelio T1s, and my Nothing Ear 2s . So my final list of my earbuds rankings are: 1. Nothing Ear 2 2. Phillips Fidelio T1 3. Denon Perl 4. AirPods Pro 2 5. Moto Buds+ 6. Status Between 3ANC 6.5. OnePlus Buds Pro 2 & LG Tone T90Q 7. Moondrop Space Travel, and honestly as I listen to them more, they may move up. 8. Both 1Mores in a tie (the Aeros & Colorbuds) 9. Cleer Ally Plus II (I’ve bought these twice and have been disappointed in them both times) I realize I kinda turned this post into a “rank my earbuds” list, but seriously, the Moondrop Space Travels are the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever heard for less than $50. Are they built to challenge the audiophile quality pairs like the Fidelios and the Nothing Ears? No, but for $25 they’re amazing sounding. They’re perfect for just running around every day or going to the gym. Since they’re so cheap, they’re perfect for those situations where if you lose them or they break, you don’t have to lose sleep over replacing them. I get that this post seems like I’m doing a paid promo for Moondrop. It’s not that lol, I’ve just never been this impressed with a cheap pair of earbuds like I have been with the Moondrop Space Travels. My only complaint is, they’re kinda hard to get out of the case.

Get yourself some Moondrop’s. They’re like $25 on amazon, and they’re great quality

This is marketing and brand reach doing what it does best. There are plenty of brands doing great things in the market that aren't getting a lot of attention. JLAB's Epic Lab earbuds were fantastic; JBL, Moondrop, Nothing Ear, SoundPeats, numerous other brands tested very well against the top of my list, which consisted of the Denon Perl Pro, Technics AZ80, Sennheiser True Wireless Momentum 4, Sony XM5, AirPods Pro, B&W Pi7 S2 and Pi8. I have the AZ100s on the way, and I'm sure they'll occupy one of those top spots. It's important to note, however, that many of these brands do not need to push as many units to remain successful. At the economies of scale companies like Sony, Sennheiser, and Bose are operating at, the investment into their production, distribution, customer service, and operations pipelines is immense. They are likely expecting to sell tens of thousands of units, to the thousands that other brands need to turn a profit. And while you may see those more prolific brands everywhere, don't forget the communities of people on social media platforms that regularly market and recommend the opposing brands. They're not as common, but that's to be expected and will remain that way by nature. In other words, while the popular brands may be ubiquitous, that is by design. It doesn't mean opposing manufacturers are on a downward trajectory. This was the assumption when Jabra cancelled its TWS ANC lineup, and that may have been part of the decision, but Jabra had other, more profitable interests and chose to constrain their business goals around those interests because there was more opportunity there. As someone that's tested dozens of ANC earbuds (and has a wide ranging collection of dedicated, wired IEMs), I have very few biases when it comes to competing brands. If it works well, I'll use the thing. I have no qualms recommending a pair of Soundcore VR P10s, right alongside top-tier TWS sets if I think it fits the individual's use case. Recently, I took a long flight overseas and left all the other major TWS brands behind and took a cheap pair of PortaPros and a $20 pair of Aliexpress stem-style earbuds with me. Everyone else on the plane was wearing AirPods.

I use them for the gym and I have had no problems yet. Though as someone that listens on a low-mid volume, the ANC is ok, but not good enough. They also get looser over time in my ears so I have to push them in more a few times every session. That could just be my earcanals though.

I bought them to take to Thailand after my nothing eat 1s started to come unglued. That was a year ago last November. Still use them. Very good for the price

Best cheap earbud by miles.

I had the same problem with qcy and moondrop but not with soundcore my pair is going flawless for 3 years already
