Soundcore Space 2 price hits $106.49 floor

Anker’s Soundcore Space 2 noise-canceling headphones are now selling for $106.49. That price is the lowest recorded for the product and represents a $23 cut from the standard list price. The deal is active on October 23 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. The discount applies to all available color options.

The Space 2 replaced the Space One, a model launched in 2023 that John Higgins of The Verge previously ranked among the best budget options for noise cancellation. The newer unit carries a list price that is $30 higher than its predecessor. The current sale reduces that premium, bringing the effective cost closer to the original model’s entry-level pricing.

Anker made specific technical changes to the Space 2. The active noise cancellation system now suppresses low-frequency sounds more effectively. This targets noise from sources like train tracks and airplane engines. Design adjustments also allow for more accurate audio reproduction compared to the first generation.

The headphones retain features that made the earlier model popular. They support high-resolution LDAC audio and include HearID 3.0. This software personalizes sound output by analyzing user responses to specific audio samples. The battery life has also increased significantly. With noise cancellation enabled, the unit runs for up to 50 hours. With it disabled, the runtime extends to 70 hours.

These figures exceed the Space One’s capabilities, which offered 40 hours with noise cancellation on and 55 hours with it off. The new model also includes a 3.5mm jack for wired listening if the battery depletes. An automatic pause feature stops playback when the headphones are removed from the head. This allows users to resume audio at the exact same point upon reinsertion.

The Verge characterizes the Space 2 as a straightforward recommendation due to its improved noise control and sound quality. At the current sale price of $106.49, the unit is cheaper than it has ever been. The price still sits $30 above the original cost of the Space One.
