If you lean towards portability and the ability to secure the earbuds during physical activities, you'll find the Jaybird Vista 2 compelling, as they are more sport-friendly with their ear fins and smaller size. On the other hand, if you prefer comfort during long listening sessions and better noise isolation, the Soundcore Space One might be a better fit since they are over-ear headphones. The tradeoff is that the Jaybird Vista 2 is often less expensive, but the Soundcore Space One may offer additional features like LDAC for high-resolution audio support, which is not available on the Jaybird. If you prioritize sound quality and are willing to invest a bit more, the Soundcore Space One may be worth the extra cost. Give Feedback

Sound Guys

Chase Bernath | September 2022
"Compared to the original Vista, the Jaybird Vista 2 adds some key features including ANC and SurroundSense to control how much environmental noise you hear. If you're an athlete and are looking for rugged earbuds with tons of customization options, the Jaybird Vista 2 makes for a good option—but only if you are able to achieve a proper fit from the proprietary ear tips."

PC Magazine

Tim Gideon | September 2023
"The Anker Soundcore Space One noise-cancelling headphones are stylish, comfortable, and affordable. They offer better active noise cancellation than we expect for the price, and their sculpted audio impresses thanks to the adjustable EQ and support for the hi-res LDAC codec. Overall, they’re an excellent value and well worth your attention if you're on a budget."
