This is an awesome looking headphone. it looks super sleek and modern.

Good headphones from skullcandy but i hope for longer battery life

Was not one of the best sounds, only buy if’s on sale

OK I have a nice little assortment of wireless headsets, very handy these days when teaching virtual classes and attending virtual meetings and then retiring for some binge watching to get away from it all… you get the idea – something is in or on my ears pretty much all day long. With that said, I must confess that these Skullcandy headphones are my preferred choice when it comes down to what I can wear comfortably for long periods of time. COMFORT: I have some sets with fabric cups, some sets with plasticized cups, memory foam and all that. The Skullcandy Hesh is the most comfortable pair for LONG periods of time on the head. They are light, flexible, don’t “crush” the head but stay on snugly…. This set is the Goldilocks “just right” fit for me. NOISE CANCELING: the ANC on these is the best I have experienced. As soon as I turn them on it is like I stepped into a recording studio sound room. All the window fans and keyboard clicks and other little noises just disappear. People who want to stand around and chatter and distract me all fade into little muffled bumps that are easy to disregard (and that’s another story for another day). There is also an “ambient” setting with a double-push of the ANC button that uses the 4 microphones to ‘repeat’ the ambient sound – so if you want to very quickly hear what is going on around you WITHOUT taking off or turning off the headphones, you can hit the button and you actually get a louder version of the surrounding sound than if you took off the phones. Noice! BATTERY: no question about it, these last longer than any other set I have used – and I keep the ANC on all the time I am using them. I have yet to “run out” of battery using these all day for teaching virtual classes and then settling down for the evening to watch some movies or TV. I will put them on the USB-C for about an hour when stopping for walking the dog and dinner, and then back on the head for the evening’s entertainment. There is a “quickie” function that Skullcandy says gives you several hours of extra battery time with a quick charge, and I guess it works just fine because battery life has not been a problem at all. DURABILITY: this is a real issue with me, as I have a “high end” set of bluetooth headphones from another very well known company, and there is a little plastic “hangar” piece that connects the headband to the earcups that has CRACKED and broken apart on BOTH sides. I have had to order this little plastic hangar TWICE and they ain’t cheap, and then take everything apart including using a soldering gun to remove the wires and then put it all back together again… which is absolutely inexcusable and will keep me from EVER buying headphones from that other well-known company ever ever again. If you have a nice pair, but can’t wear them without breaking little dinky plastic pieces, then they are NO GOOD to me. Now these Skullcandy headphones are a different story. Honestly I thought that since they were much less expensive they would be kind of plastic-toy in construction, but I swear you can twist these like a Twizzler and they don’t seem to have a weak spot. Thank you Skullcandy for considering durability as something important. I would not worry about letting the kids use these. CONTROLS: these are very very simple to operate. On/Off button, ANC button, VolUP, VolDown – the start, stop, skip, answer, hangup all work with the same buttons, and the controls are easy to learn and the buttons are DURABLE and I’m not worried about them crushing under my fingers from pushing them a lot. SOUND: sure you buy headphones for sound, but if they are not durable or the battery runs out too soon or the controls are a problem – then what good is the sound? With that said, I have no complaints about the sound. There are no equalizer settings and adjustments as I have on the more expensive headsets, but I have done virtual meetings, all kinds of music, TV, movies, podcasts – everything sounds just fine to me and I’m sure there are better sounding headsets out there as there always is something better for more money, but really I have no issues with the sound quality and if you have good ANC (like these do) then it’s easier for them to sound good. Quick note about the microphones – I had been using a gaming headset for my virtual class teaching and also for the virtual meetings with the boom microphone and all that gaming headset stuff. I had a little private meeting going on and used the gaming headset with the boom mic first, and then switched to the Skullcandy which has 4 built-in mics – and asked the others in the meeting if they could tell any difference. They couldn’t tell if I was using one or the other, and once I got comfortable with using the Skullcandy headphones and not having that boom mic sitting next to my mouth, I found the comfort and ANC of the Skullcandy set to be a more comfortable set to use. OK that about wraps it up. I don’t think you will be disappointed with this set of headphones. Spend more if you like, or if you really need the high-end headphones, but otherwise this is a set of phones that you won’t have to worry about breaking or running out of juice. Stay Safe from Central Georgia!

They suck!! 4 mo ths in and they keep saying piwer on. Cant shut them off and cant fix them. Did hard reset, and nothing changed. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

The sound is fine but the fit and ear cushion are poor meaning they don’t block external noise. I can wear my Bose with no music, no active noise canceling and get a pretty quiet environment. These? Maybe 15% of my environmental noise is muffled.

BT doesn’t pair anymore with phone. Worked great at first for the price .

It sucks the sound quality went down very quickly after opening the box. (About 2 days)

Poor longevity/warranty for this price point. It sounds good if it doesn't break so i guess two stars. best i can do

Definitely ot worth the price. Maybe if it was 25 dollors less then i can agree with that

I am very big on sound quality and these headphones have delivered. I tried to find headphones cheaper than other with great sound and the Skull Candy ANC has come to resue. I use them to watch tv and go to the gym. Bass is great also. They are very sleek and great looking. The heaphones are also lightweight and portable. The ear cups fit perfectly around my ears and thr active noise cancellation is awesome! Way better than my air pods or jbl headphones.

My stepson loves this gift. And it can be paired to his switch and Xbox with was a good surprise

Well I don’t like the foam that surrounds the headphones. Came off too easily

I guess for the price you cant go wrong however, the cups over the ears are very uncomfortable unless you have small ears. I returned it qnd bought bose instead. A little more expensive but worth it

This was a great gift for my teenage son, and with thr Black Friday sale i coyldnt pass it up

works great, thank you. What can I say? I said what I said and I like them. End of story.

Headphones that deliver quality and value are hard to come by. I bought my first Skull candy earphones when I was in high school and I thought “wow, these headphones are high tech.” You had to put a double A battery to really get the bass going. Fast forward to these bad boys over ten years later and the improvements that this company has gone through and how they still don’t break the bank and offer quality sound, I had to try these out. First out of the box, comes the headphones folded to accentuate the fact that they’re so portable, sleek, and the texture of the material is high grade. Once unfolded you can appreciate the thought going into the design. The headphones both spin in both directions. I’ve had plenty of headphones and most of them only spin inward, not outward. Not a big deal or deal breaker. A convenience in my opinion. They come with a charging cable and an Aux cable to connect them directly to your computer or in my case, my mic. Once you turned them on, a pleasant lady with an accent tells you that they’re on and functioning. She sounds normal and not robotic, which I like. It’s comparable to an air stewardess telling you that you’re about to embark on a sound odyssey. Crisp treble, deep bass, clear mids. I’m a bit of an audiophile and I can honestly say Skull Candy repeated their same success in these headphones. Now the features as you’re using the headphones. You can control the music from your right ear. You’ve got your volume, your ANC button button which uses the four mics inside the headphone to cancel out the noise from outside. Great feature and it works so much better than some of the noise canceling headphones out there. It also has a play and pause button which also activates whatever virtual assistant your device has. All these features just make it more concrete that Skull candy cares more about the customers enjoyment and value they receive from their product rather than lining their own pockets. My final thoughts are these, this has been one of my favorite reviews to write because I love backing up a company who’s products I’ve used as a kid. Skull candy candy was one of my first reviews ever posted online. These headphones work very well, aren’t too expensive, have a great battery life, and immerse you in a sound experience like no other. All while doing it for pennies on the dollar compared to other brands. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to make an investment and advancement in sound.

A bit quiet than expected but they’re good and affordable

Would recommend . Also loving the noice cancelation on them as well.

They are very uncomfortable for my head. I wouldnt reccommend it.
