The Moondrop Space Travel is a true wireless earphone pair offering ANC and a Space Fantasy themed design. It connects over Bluetooth 5.3, works with iOS and Android phones and other Bluetooth devices, and comes in Space Travel White and Space Travel Black. Its price is USD 29.99, with an optional bundle that adds a small case.
Key specs that matter
Each earbud uses one 13 mm dynamic driver with a composite flexible suspension diaphragm and a titanium-plated dome. The motor combines an imported CCAW voice coil with an N52 magnet assembly. Total harmonic distortion is rated at or below 0.1 percent. Supported Bluetooth profiles and codecs are A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, HSP, SBC and AAC, and working range is 10 m in an open environment without obstacles. Each earbud has a 3.7 V 37 mAh battery that lasts about 4 hours, while the case holds a 3.7 V 380 mAh cell good for about 12 hours in total. A full charge takes around 1 hour for the earbuds and about 1.5 hours for the case, which charges over a Type-C port.
Engineering and use context
The ANC system relies on single feedforward processing rather than the hybrid feedforward and feedback approach used by many ANC earbuds, running on a new domestic SoC with more computing power. Moondrop quotes up to 35 dB of noise reduction over a 3 kHz band. A transparency mode is tuned for the 200 to 1000 Hz band, the basic range of the human voice. The default tuning follows the Moondrop VDSF target, and three bass settings - Monitor, Reference and Basshead - can be selected through the Moondrop Link app. A game mode cuts latency to 55 ms for video and gaming, while a separate music mode is intended for general listening. Touch controls on the earbuds can be customised for playback, calls, ANC and mode switching. The box contains the earbuds, a charging cable, a manual, a certificate, a card, three sizes of ear tips and an after-sales card.
Pairing
Support for AAC and SBC covers both iOS and Android sources, and the HFP and HSP profiles let the earbuds work as a headset for calls on a phone. The game mode is meant for watching films and playing games on a phone or tablet, where Moondrop positions it as an alternative to the standard music mode. Charging the case needs only a Type-C cable from any USB charger or computer port.
Alternatives
The Moondrop Space Travel 2 Ultra is a later true wireless model from the brand, also offering active noise cancelling.
