Soundcore's Space 2 noise-canceling headphones are discounted to $106.49 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart, $23 below their list price of $129.99.

The new model improves active noise cancellation, especially against low-frequency sounds like train and airplane engines, and offers more accurate sound. Battery life has also been extended to 50 hours with ANC on and 70 hours with it off, up from 40 and 55 hours. The headphones keep features such as LDAC high-resolution audio, HearID 3.0 personalization, a 3.5mm jack for wired use, and automatic playback pausing when removed.
