Moondrop Space Travel 2 Review: Is Linsoul's Best-Seller Worth It?
Linsoul's best-sellers list is topped by an eartips bundle and a couple of accessory-attached listings, but the product actually driving that traffic is the Moondrop Space Travel 2 — a $29.99 ANC true wireless earbud that shows up bundled in multiple top slots. We reviewed the standalone earbuds directly, since a grab-bag eartip bundle isn't something you can meaningfully evaluate on its own.
The Space Travel 2 pairs a 13mm composite dynamic driver with a beryllium-plated dome to Moondrop's 5128 VDSF target response, the same tuning philosophy the brand uses on its higher-end wired IEMs, and Moondrop publishes a real measured frequency-response graph against that target rather than just claiming "balanced sound." It runs Bluetooth 6.0 with a feedforward ANC design (rather than the more common hybrid feedback approach), an on-chip NPU for AI-driven call noise cancellation, a 55ms low-latency game mode, and dual-device connectivity, all tunable through the Moondrop app's EQ and community DSP-preset sharing. On-site, it holds a 4.11/5 rating from 44 reviews for this specific product — a real but still-building sample for a newer release. Independently, Linsoul as a store holds 3.5/5 from 201 Trustpilot reviews, with 65% five-star and a real 21% one-star chunk; reading through the negative reviews, most concern shipping and fulfillment issues rather than the products themselves, and Linsoul responds to the large majority of them. One gap worth flagging: Linsoul's own spec table lists "Battery Capacity" and "Battery Life (AAC)" as line items, but the actual mAh and hour figures are missing from the listing — we could not find a published battery-life number anywhere on the product page to confirm before purchase.
Pros
- 13mm dynamic driver tuned to Moondrop's published 5128 VDSF target response, with a real measured graph shown rather than just marketing claims
- Bluetooth 6.0 with feedforward ANC design, intended to avoid the muddied bass some hybrid-feedback ANC earbuds produce
- NPU-driven AI ENC for call quality, plus a 55ms low-latency game mode
- Moondrop app supports full EQ customization and community-shared DSP tuning presets
- 1-year warranty and 30-day return window for factory-sealed, non-customized units
Cons
- No published battery-life or battery-capacity figures on the product listing — confirm runtime with Linsoul support before buying if that matters to you
- Codec support is limited to SBC/AAC — no aptX or LDAC, which matters most for Android users seeking higher-bitrate wireless audio
- Store-wide Trustpilot rating (3.5/5, 201 reviews) includes a real 21% one-star segment, mostly tied to shipping/fulfillment rather than product quality
- On-site review count for this specific product (44) is still relatively small for a newer release
- No published IP/water-resistance rating found on the listing
Who It's For
Good For
- Budget-conscious buyers who want ANC and app-based EQ tuning from a brand with real measurement transparency
- Android and iOS users who don't need aptX/LDAC-grade wireless codecs
- Existing Moondrop headphone/IEM owners who want to stay in the same tuning and app ecosystem
Skip If
- You need a confirmed battery-life figure before buying — it isn't published
- You specifically want LDAC or aptX codec support for higher-bitrate Android streaming
- You want a water-resistance rating confirmed for workouts or rain exposure
How It Compares: Moondrop Space Travel 2 vs QCY MeloBuds Pro
| Spec | Moondrop Space Travel 2 | QCY MeloBuds Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $29.99 | $47.99 |
| Bluetooth version | 6.0 | 5.3 |
| Codec | SBC / AAC | LDAC, Hi-Res Wireless |
| ANC rating | Not published (feedforward design) | 46dB hybrid ANC (published) |
| Battery life | Not published | 7.5h (ANC on) / 34h with case (published) |
The QCY costs $18 more but publishes the exact numbers — ANC dB rating and battery life — that Moondrop's listing leaves blank, and adds LDAC for higher-bitrate Android streaming. The Space Travel 2's edge is Bluetooth 6.0 and Moondrop's published frequency-response measurement against a stated target, which speaks more to tuning transparency than to battery or noise-cancellation specifics. If confirmed runtime and ANC numbers matter more to you than price, the QCY is the safer pick on paper.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the battery actually last on the Space Travel 2?
Linsoul's own Technical Details table lists "Battery Capacity" and "Battery Life (AAC)" as spec rows, but the actual figures are not filled in on the listing as of this review. We recommend contacting Linsoul support directly for a confirmed number before ordering if battery life is a deciding factor for you.
Does the Space Travel 2 support LDAC or aptX for higher-quality Android streaming?
No. Per Linsoul's technical details table, codec support is limited to SBC and AAC. If you specifically want LDAC or aptX for higher-bitrate wireless audio on Android, look at a competing model like the QCY MeloBuds Pro, which supports LDAC.
Verdict
The Space Travel 2 backs up its sound-quality claims with something most budget ANC earbuds don't bother with: a real published frequency-response measurement against a stated target, plus feedforward ANC and NPU call-processing that go beyond typical spec-sheet padding at this price. The real gap is transparency on battery life — a core spec for any wireless earbud that simply isn't listed, which is worth resolving with Linsoul before you buy if runtime matters to your use case. At $29.99, with a 1-year warranty and 30-day returns, it's a reasonable bet for the features included, as long as you go in aware of what isn't confirmed yet.
