A few things. First off, now you can get a free hard case when you purchase on Amazon or the soundcore website. Nice! Second. Before you insert comment ‘This is sponsored he can’t be trusted’. Please watch the entire video. I reviewed this headphone like I do any product on this channel, whether I purchase it myself or it's sent to me for free. I lay out the pros and cons and let you decide for yourself if it’s worth it for you. Soundcore were not able to see the video prior to publishing. They just send me the specs/features of the headphones and that's it, I can say whatever I want. A lot of brands won't sponsor videos with the way I do this and that's fine. There are tonnes of headphones and earbuds out there, more than I'll ever be able to cover. So If a brand is willing to pay me there's a higher chance I'll be keen to cover it. Just because I'm making money this doesn't mean I can't be honest. I have done sponsored videos in the past, some quite positive, others not so positive. If that means the brand will no longer sponsor videos, so be it. I'm incredibly cautious with my approach to these paid videos and will only do them If I have complete freedom.
Think most people get it. Transparency is key! Don’t see what the fuss is about here… in any event, that was a very thorough and helpful review. Thanks! Ps - any intel re Australian release date?
SERIOUSLY, I think you do the cleanest and no fluff reviews I have ever seen man. And so thoughtful, like when comparing instead of just saying the model name, you changed the footage to that headphone which makes it so much easier for your audience. I bought the Q45 based on your review btw and because I like what the company does. Thanks for being awesome 🤜
Only a few improvements from current Space One when it comes to sound quality. If this is your first Headphone get this or Q45 but if you have an existing Space One I think no need to upgrade. Key features over Space One: Battery life has 50hrs instead of 40hrs with ANC on Noise cancelling has 4 steps now compared to 3 of Space One This is compact size compared to Space One Price point Space One is $100 and Pro that is priced to $199. Pro can be folded into a donut shape.
The only thing that I wouldn't get the Q45, is for the lack-luster noise cancelling and the over-bassy sound that makes it harder to hear whatever I'm currently playing.
@@itspielem I dc about the foldable feature either. The ear cushions are better than the space one , the noise cancelling and the audio. I haven’t tried phone calls yet. I don’t see them being better than the 45s though. They cost extra & come with no case (that’s crazy). But it’s because of Dolby licensing & the bendable “foldable feature “ says so on their site that’s where the price hike came from
Hey @Picky! Could you please do a background conversation noise cancel call test on your headphones. I noticed that the space one is terrible for office Work, as it does nothing to cancel my office colleague voices. The caller can hear conversations in my office!, only ambient noises cancelled. Does the pro improve on this ?
I have the Q45s and I love them. My daughter keeps swiping them but that's another issue. My only gripe about the Q45 is they leak more sound than any other over the ear headphones I have owned, even more than the cheaper ones. I can be in a quiet room with my wife and she can hear my music. Is that because of build quality?
Is there a OnePlus pro 3 review In the works? Im on the fence between oneplus pro 3 and Nothing ear. Due to student discounts and coupons I can get the oneplus cheaper so I’m leaning towards it, but not by much so I want to see which is better.
There is, that’ll be the main comparison. I’m the video won’t be ready for another week roughly though. It’s incredibly close between the two but if it’s cheaper I think the oneplus is the better option
Kind of disappointed ngl, considering space q45s are basically 2x cheaper with the current discounts, the small improvements are not worth an extra 100€, nevermind the fact that q45 comes with a carrying case for that price.
The only downside to the space q45s is the case being very big and bulky. It's not a bad thing, but when traveling sometimes having more space is better.
@@HadEs5_3 standard size to the competition, but that's what makes the space one pros better compared to the q45s and other competitors. If you want that bulkier case then go ahead I personally never use it, but that's my own choice.
@@Dragonlord826 u legit get a purse for the pros for which u have to pay extra lmao. They aren't protecting ur device from dust, rain, and definitely not against any force.
@@Tremonti4ever In my country, its price is $230. You are guaranteed to get it at this price. Also try the Skullcandy Indy Evo or Skullcandy Indy ANC 2. These are fun headphones
damnit. I've been waiting for the Q50 for a while now but yesterday ended up deciding to just get the Q45. And I just found out now about the Space One Pro!! Just one question,... are the earcups thicker and deeper than the Q45? What about the comfort and clamp force. My head is too large lol
I have only ever used Beats and have been through a few, the headband always broke at the hinges, repaired a few times but then got sick of having to send them off. So decided to not get expensive headphones. Was considering Sony XM5 or Apple Airmax but those are very pricy and the Pro looks pretty good. Odd that they don’t have wear detection though, wonder why that was removed
I’d have loved to check out the space one pro but they are 200 dollars and doesn’t have a penny discount even in black friday sale. The Q45s are 90 dollars the space ones are 70 and Q35 are 63. Got the Q35 and Q45. I think space ones mids are very recessed and have very thin ear cushions. I just don’t know why but i think the space one just doesn’t suit my taste in both design and audio. I love the Q45s design although they are bulky and also the overall comfort of Q35 the most.
Whoa far too close in price to the Cambridge Audio P100 with their AB amplification and par excellence sound. I sold my Q45s for the very reason you described but the EQ shift between ANC on and off would be a huge minus, Soundcore need to fix that because it was hardly noticeable on the Q45 and very disappointing they have regressed on the Space One Pro. Having said that I would be mighty surprised if they even come close to the Cambridge Audio P100 which seem to reign supreme now and it's a shame you can't review them but Cambridge Audio don't throw hundreds of headphones at reviewers in an advertising campaign as Soundcore always do quite simply because don't need to, and that's my biggest problem with the flood of reviews that are now going to swamp UA-cam all sponsored by Soundcore simply because it's only to be expected they will all be naturally favourable.
Hello love the vids. Here asking for rec for mid range anc headphones,as im planning to buy my first ones.Which one,the Space one or Q45 be better in terms of functionality and convenience? Im okay with other brands as well.
I guess the missing wearing detection is not that big deal. Just make a habit of pressing the pause button on the headphone when you take it off. P.S. why is Ibrahimović doing headphone reviews? 😉
They say $$ went to the head band (foldability ) & paying for Dolby license. Even though it’s not atmos I assume a Dolby digital increased audio though
Have you seen the case they want people to pay for? It's ridiculous it looks like a cheap Women's purse 👜. That EQ shift and the hot weather here in California is a pass for me. Thanks for the review. 🔥🔥🇺🇸

This is hella confusing, why the flagship is not actually the flagship? You pay 50 more dollars for some specs to be worse than in the budget option, wtf
Companies are typically shy to release flagship headphones. This is interesting. I can already hear all the trend babies crying about the absence of a case.
I'm sure these are good but their build quality has always been terrible. I have had three of their headphones just break. People should just get another brand.

What is your daily driver earbuds?
I'm using the Technics AZ80 the most at the moment
@@pickyaudioI can’t bring myself to pay $300 for earbuds
Please check the mic calling quality WITH sidetone. They sound horrible.
Is the pressure in noise cancelling much worse that q45??
Great vid which one would you say is superior for working out soundcore space 1s or the q45s
Excellent review.They compete directly with the Sony Ult wear. I wonder, do they sound better?
I don't own them, I was keen to compare but had to purchase some earbuds instead. Hopefully some of the other channels compared them
Hey great review! I saw that you were wearing a metal tshirt. Which is better for metal music? Kind regards
