Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Mu6 Space 2

  • Powerful active noise cancellation (up to 40dB reduction)
  • Impressive hi-fi sound quality with clear highs and strong bass
  • High level of comfort due to breathable protein leather and memory foam
  • Lightweight and highly flexible/foldable design for easy travel
  • Stable Bluetooth 5.0 connection with support for aptX and aptX LL
  • Convenient features like auto-pause/play and transparency mode
  • Clear microphone quality for phone and conference calls

What customers don't like about Mu6 Space 2

  • Touch controls can be finicky or difficult to master initially
  • ANC performance can struggle (drumming/thumping sound) in extremely loud environments
  • Sound quality may become slightly tinny or less natural when ANC is active
  • Included 3.5mm audio cable feels cheap or non-standard
  • Relatively long charging time (approximately 4 hours)
  • Some users noted weak hinges or a mostly plastic construction

Verdict

The Mu6 Space 2 is a lightweight (290g) wireless over-ear headphone featuring 40mm dynamic drivers with a 20Hz–20kHz frequency range and high-definition codec support including aptX LL, AAC, and SBC. Its standout characteristic is the Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that blocks up to 40dB of ambient noise, complemented by a smart infrared proximity sensor for auto play/pause and a touch-sensitive ear cup for gesture controls. Main pros include its impressive soundstage with clear highs and deep bass, a reliable 24-hour battery life (20 hours with ANC on), and a highly flexible, foldable design with premium leather padding for long-term comfort. However, notable cons include a finicky touch control interface that can be difficult to use precisely, an unreliable auto-pause sensor when the headphones are only resting around the neck, and the lack of higher-end codecs like LDAC or aptX HD.
