The Soundcore Space One by Anker is a mid-range over-ear headphone built for people who want serious active noise cancellation without paying flagship prices. It targets daily commuters, students in noisy hostels and libraries, remote workers on back-to-back calls, and travellers who need a headphone that survives a full week on one charge.
Positioned between budget ANC headphones and premium models from Sony and Bose, the Space One delivers adaptive noise cancellation that cuts up to 98% of ambient noise, 40mm Hi-Res certified drivers with LDAC support, and up to 55 hours of playback.

Frequently Asked Questions
How good is the noise cancellation on the Soundcore Space One?
Adaptive ANC 2.0 reduces up to 98% of ambient noise under Soundcore's lab testing, and is particularly effective against low, constant sounds like traffic, generators, fans, and aircraft engines.
Does the Space One support high-resolution audio?
Yes. It supports the LDAC codec and carries Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification. LDAC requires an Android device that supports it; iPhones connect over AAC instead.
How long does the battery actually last?
Up to 40 hours with ANC on and up to 55 hours with it off, at moderate volume. A 5-minute charge provides roughly 4 hours of playback, and a full charge takes about 2 hours over USB-C.
Can I connect the Space One to two devices at once?
Yes. Bluetooth 5.3 multipoint allows simultaneous connection to two devices, such as a laptop and a phone, with automatic switching when a call arrives.
Can I use these headphones without Bluetooth?
Yes. A 3.5mm AUX cable is included for wired listening, useful on flights or with older audio equipment. Bluetooth features are disabled while in wired mode.
