If sound quality for music is a priority, the Moondrop Blessing 3 is the better choice, but note it is a premium-priced, wired earbud with excellent build quality and sound, especially suited for a detailed audio experience. However, if you're looking for versatility and convenience, the Soundcore Space One is more affordable, offers active noise cancelling for better noise isolation, and supports wireless connectivity with LDAC codec for high-quality streaming. It also has a much longer battery life and is foldable for portability, making it ideal for travel and daily commuting. The downside of Soundcore is that its overall sound quality is good but may not match the audio fidelity of the Moondrop Blessing 3. Keep in mind the Moondrop's poor mic quality if you plan to make calls. Give Feedback

"The Moondrop Blessing 3 has excellent imaging performance, especially for the price. Pair that with its neutral tonality with slight elevations towards both ends of the frequency response, and the Blessing 3 technically proficient set of IEMs that are also enjoyable to listen to every day."

"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."
