If you’ve been eyeing a pair of noise-canceling headphones but don’t want to spend over $300 for the usual suspects, this deal on the Anker Soundcore Space One Pro might be worth a closer look. It’s currently going for $129.99 on Woot for the next three weeks or until it sells out, which is $70 less than the current Amazon price. It’s new, has an 18-month manufacturer warranty from Anker, and ships free if you have Amazon Prime (if not, it'll cost you $6 for shipping). Just keep in mind, Woot only ships to the 48 contiguous states—so if you're in Alaska or Hawaii, this sale won't work for you.
The headphones themselves strike a good balance between comfort and portability. They’re made from a mix of plastic and metal, and despite being lightweight, they don’t feel flimsy. The earcups and headband are lined with faux leather and stay put without clamping too tightly. They fold inward and the cups swivel flat, which makes them easy to slide into a bag, although you’ll have to be careful—no hardshell case is included, just a soft pouch. The headphones charge via USB-C and include a 3.5mm jack for wired listening. Controls are split between both earcups and are customizable via the Soundcore app. You can tweak what the buttons do, including toggling between ANC, transparency, and normal modes.
As for performance, the Space One Pro holds its own. There are 40mm dynamic drivers delivering sound from 20Hz to 20kHz. That said, the out-of-box sound leans bass-heavy, but with some tweaking, you can get a more neutral sound. The app-based EQ is robust, with plenty of presets and manual options to dial in the sound. The ANC doesn’t quite match the Bose or Sony flagships, but it handles low-end droning sounds like plane engines surprisingly well, notes this PCMag review (though higher-pitched voices or sudden loud noises can still creep in). Also, there’s support for LDAC, so if you’re using a compatible Android device, you’ll get better quality over Bluetooth. Battery life is strong too—up to 55 hours without ANC and 40 with it on, which should get most folks through a week without needing to recharge.
