Best Skullcandy Earbuds So Far!

I'm a big advocate for Skullcandy products (owned the rail anc, crusher anc 2, dime evo, push active anc and the dime 2) and these blew all the other ones out of the water.
Sound quality is amazing since the Bose collab brought over the fins from their QuietComfort models. Gives a really seal which makes the ANC top tier & comfort the best while keeping them in your ear.
Coming directly from the Dime Evos, I'm glad they are keeping this case. Slides down for quick access of putting them in and out (sometimes can slide by themselves unfortunately).
Works well with Google & Skullcandy Application is easy to use.
Battery Life is good on these & magnets in the case are quite strong
Overall would definitely recommend them to anyone especially bass heads as this gives the best bass out of any Skullcandy earbuds!

At first I really liked this earbuds but all of a sudden I tried to used them last night they fell apart taking them out of the charging port. I'm never buying Skullcandy again

This is my 16th set of wireless BT earbuds and second from SkullCandy (first was Indy Evo 4). Why, because they keep getting better, and lesser known makers have made huge improvements. Longevity continues to improve, These Skullcandy Method 360 ANC's claim 32h (9h+23h from charging case) and a 10m Rapid charge will give you an additional 2 hours listening time. I fully charged mine when I got them, then paired them with my iPhone 15 Pro, which was trouble free. I then ran them through Tara Labs Noise burn in tones for 8h 37m (to verify the battery claims, and to break them in), when the right earbud was exhausted; so very close to the 9 hour quoted battery life. The Method's use BT 5.3 whereas the Evo's used BT 5.0. BT 5.3 should offer better sound quality. I installed the Skullcandy Skull-IQ software. Installation went smoothly. These Skullcandy earbuds have "Sound by BOSE"; I've always considered Bose to have the best ANC functionality of any headsets/earbuds. I look forward to seeing how SkullCandy has utilized Boses' technology. I fully recharge the case and earbuds overnight. Their app said the left earbud was 97% charged and the right was charged to 98%.
Let's get to the important part, how do they sound/fit. After testing the larger and standard silicon ear inserts I found the standard silicon cushion felt the best (they are elliptical not round). I did some quick testing with the IQ Apps Music setup and various Custom EQ curves (expecting to like my own setting) only to find that their Music setup was louder/more lively than I could accomplish with any Custom EQ settings (only a 5 band EQ). The Method 360 earbuds have ear-detection sensors which pauses your music when you take them out; and resumes play when you put them back in your ears. BTW: The case does not support wireless charging.
Now on to Boston's first album; 'More than a Feeling' was very crisp, the high's very nice, on 'Foreplay/Long Time' the fade out fade in separation was excellent, the subtle build up was nearly perfect, but mid-bass and bass was not as tight as I'd have liked. In general the bass was there but not quite as pronounced as I'd hoped. Here I looked at their IQ App to try the 'Bass Boost'. Just one of 3 preset settings; Music, Bass Boost, Podcast and the Custom EQ. I can't say the 'Bass Boost' improved the situation, the Music setting was best for music, and the podcast did enhance the spoken word, (worked well). I'm accustomed to using the included software custom EQ, but its 5 band limitation didn't sound any better then the Music setting. So I've accepted the highs and mid range are superb, but the low end lacked the same authority. While on this point I compared the ANC and 'Stay Aware' (Ambient setting that allows you to hear the sound around you with the earbuds in. This was a huge step up from their Evo earbuds. The ANC with the intensity all the way up was most excellent. Same as the 'Stay Aware" with it turned all the way up it was very easy to hear what was going on around me. I could easily watch and listen to the TV in the adjacent room. The ANC completely hid the sound of my pool pump running when I was in my backyard. I took a phone call at this point, and the quality I heard was clear and the person I was talking to thought it was also good. Again the sound is much better than the Evo's from a few years back, yet their are details, mostly on the low end that are missing.
Back to the music, Pink Floyd's masterpiece; DSOTM. 'Speak to Me' sounded great, but I'd have preferred a little more volume, but I was at 100%. The subtle tones were great, but as the song builds it lacked some oomph that higher volume might have aided with. The highs of 'Time' were excellent, these earbuds provide a crystal clear high end, they excel here. Then 'The Great Gig In the Sky's' ethereal voices, nicely done, The saxophone highs were wonderful. But again a bit more bass/volume would have been nice. 'Money' was much better but it's much louder. The spoken voices in 'Brain Damage' sounded very clear and stood out well. As does the fade out of 'Eclipse'. Well above average for earbuds.
All told these are very good earbuds, much better than their Evo's were. They don't get as loud as I would have liked (still better than the Evo's were). I just think and the bass is on the thin side, details just missing, or muddled. That being said, I don't think Bose has the best low end either (but better details). So these Methods 360's do sound like Bose. The ANC and "Stay Aware" are very well executed. Maybe if they were just a bit louder I could fully recommend them. But they sound very good. I'm sure some will think the low end is fine; I didn't find their custom EQ did as much as it could have. They only have one saved custom EQ setting. I do wish it was easier to read the "R" and "L" on the earbuds (maybe white printing?). Skullcandy's partnership with Bose has certainly improved the product they offer. I just feel the overall volume/low end needs further consideration. They have nailed the mid and high end. The Motion 360's seem to be a very good value.

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC earbuds provides excellent sound and a whole host of high end features at a bargain price. This is a real step up for Skullcandy. I've been using the Method 360's for several days in different sound profiles. Fit (always a problem for me) has been excellent even after several hours wear and they don't fall out, even during exercise or other activities. Nice extra is that they can be used in pairs or individually. Most of my wear has been while hiking, walking, and working out at the gym.
The Method 360 ANC earbuds are 'Sound by Bose', and apparently use the Bose drivers, design, and sound tuning. I can't really compare them to the current Bose earbuds, but they do blow away my previous buds. My longest stretch with them was a little over five housr with ANC set for ambient awareness on, so battery life seems to be very good. Sound quality is also excellent, with very punchy base and just enough accentuated highs to make it bright without making it shrill.
Noise cancelling worked very well on a test walk, street noise was basically zero. It also worked very well on public transit, cutting the train noise to near zero. Switched to 'Stay Aware' (Skullcandy's term for ambient awareness) and it was a very different story, external noise really popped. There is a third setting, ANC off, which basically provided usual muted external sounds.
The microphone worked well enough to use the Method 360's as a substitute for a phone headset. I used them during a walk on a breezy day and my 'test subject' (my friend on the other end of the call) had no problem understanding me or recognizing my voice. The wind cancellation was pretty good and the voice sounded natural. This is all subjective, of course.
The companion app is actually one of the best I've seen. It has
- a five band equalizer, which lets you tone down the base accentualtion for those base heavy beats
- hearing modes to set the mode and level of ANC or Stay Aware
- button setting to select what 1, 2, 3 tap or long press does
- low latency audio for gaming
- multipoint connectivity
The tap settings are totally configurable to a host of functions, and are settable per earbud. Usual play/pause, next, previous, ANC control, vol up/down, as well as 'fast actions' (Spotify, take a pic, Assistant) and phone controls.
The Multipoint connectivity worked really well, I have the Method 360's paired to both my laptop and phone. It takes some getting used to as the switching is done automagically depending on pre-assigned priority, but again, it works well.
The case is a charging case and is supposed to provide about 40 hrs of charge. I didn't test this, but I did go a couple days without recharging the case. I will say the case design is probably the weakest point. It's a little fiddly figuring which earbud goes where. They are held in magnetically. More distressing, the case slides open and the latch closed is not very positive. I had the case open one time by itself bouncing around hanging on a backpack. Won't do that again.
Overall, the Skullcandy Method 360 ANC earbuds are a solid bargain. Definitely recommended!

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC earbuds are an excellent choice, especially at this price point. They sound amazing, are packed full of options and have excellent battery life. Being tuned my Bose definitely shows. They sound punchy and crisp at the same time. There are several colors available, so you should be able to find something that fits your lifestyle.
What's impressive is you get about 9 hours of ANC on, and 11 hours with ANC off. The case adds 32 and 39 hours respectively. Placing your earbuds in the case will for 10 minutes will rapid charge giving you 2 hours of playback. The charging case is fairly large when it comes to earbuds in general. Carrying it around in your pocket may be awkward because of it's size. It does come with a keyring, so you could use it as a keychain, or hook it to your bag or purse.
The shape of these earbuds fit easily into my ear and are very comfortable. They come with various size tips and surrounds to get the right fit for your ear.
The earbuds already do an excellent job of passively blocking noise, but activating ANC takes it to a whole other level. "Stay Aware" let you actively hear noises around you, and can be adjusted for more or less awareness.
The earbuds also come with a low latency mode, but when I tested it out on my PC, it didn't make any difference with it on or off while gaming. It definitely had latency. The sound was obviously a step behind what was happening on screen, but it did work much better when watching YouTube videos on my PC.
You can adjust the sound via the Skull-iQ using the Equalizer option. The app in general is very easy to use and let's you easily change any of these settings. You also get Spotify Tap, which to be honest, I rarely use, but It's a nice feature to have.
Phone calls sound very clear and people on the other end of the line can also hear me very clearly as well.
The touch controls work flawlessly. I haven't had any false presses or missed presses so far.
The only downside I've have with these amazing earbuds is that the voice prompts are overly loud and muffled or distorted. Hopefully they can fix this with a firmware update.
Overall, I'm quite impressed with the Method 360 ANC earbuds by Skullcandy.

I prefer small earbuds, but I have issues with most brands trying to get them into the smallest case possible, and they’re difficult to remove. And once they are removed, because I was grabbing them with the tips of my fingers, I tend to drop them. These earbuds have a small footprint, but are also slightly elongated to make them easy to grasp. These earbuds have a sturdy, easy-to-open case that is also very secure, so I have no qualms about using the built-in loop to attach them to my backpack. With ANC off, the stated battery life is 11 hours with an additional 29 hours with the case and 9 hours with 23 in the case with ANC on. As an added plus, you can get about 2 hours of battery life out of a 2-hour charge. The earbuds come with S, M, and L-sized ear gels and separate fins to keep them firmly placed. The sound is great, which is expected since Skulcandy teamed up with Bose for this model! Aside from the ANC, you can customize other features in the Skull IQ App, including an adjustable stay-aware mode, EQ with 3 preset modes, and a custom mode. They also feature Google Fast Pair, and you can use either bud solo song with multi-point pairing. With their 4-mic Smart Mic setup, making phone calls with these is great! Callers have confirmed that my voice sounds very natural, with minimal wind interference.

The SkullCandy Method 360 ANC really surprised me. I have never owned any electronics of this brand and wow these are pretty amazing. First off the bat the case the earbuds come in is one of a kind I haven't seen anything like. So convenient that the case can be attached to any bag/purse or even a keychain, I kinda want to say they seem like a pepper spray container haha but it is not. This makes them practical and you will never forget to have them with you. The sound is super good as they are backed by BOSE which are known for quality sound so right there I knew these were going to be awesome as well.
The app gives you a variety of options to customize the earbuds to your liking.
One feature is using the left earbud as a remote to take pictures and videos.
These Skullcandy earbuds have the noise cancelling and stay aware options. The noise cancelling option really immerses you in the sound and beats of the music making it more enjoyable to listen, and also if you want to stay aware of your surroundings but still want to have music playing then this option is for you.
I would also like to mention that these come with extra ear gummies sizes for a better fit.
Now if you use them to exercise and sweat a lot make sure you keep your ears dry because these will slip off easily, something to keep in mind.

I must say - I really like these Skullcandy Method 360 headphones, and here is why. I have used and owned a number of different in ear headphones and usually I enjoyed using a certain brand. However after trying Skullcandy headphones on, they felt like "they belonged" in my ears. The comfort level was surprisingly amazing to me! The fitting is just right and even though the box contained different sizes of other ear fittings, the ones supplied were perfect for my ears. My son asked me to use these headphones and had the same experience - they were comfortable and easy to use. So whoever worked on the design of these headphones - big thank you from me!
Now let's talk about the sound quality. Again, it was another big surprise for me, my music sounded great, the bass is punchy, all the highs and lows were awesome. I felt like I was rediscovering my music library all over again and hearing things I did not hear before.
Noise Canceling worked well too and isolated the external sounds just right.
Other Huge Pluses are:
1. Battery life - I used to conserve the battery by wearing one ear piece at a time (to prolong the usage) and listen to my podcasts as I work outside all day long. Now, I can wear both ear phones and not worry about the battery life. Plus with a Rapid Charge I can always bump up the battery life to 2 hours by placing them back in their case just for 10 minutes.
2. Stay Aware Mode is very handy and I am glad these headphones feature it.
3. Easy Pairing (I suggest that you also download the Skull-iQ app) supports Google Fast Pairing and Multipoint Pairing.
There is one suggestion for improvement I might propose: the charging case is a bit big and bulky. It needs to be smaller and more practical. I am sure it has a bigger battery and can provide a number of recharging cycles, so it is just my personal observation in regards to its design.
All in all, I am super happy with these Method 360 ANC headphones, perfected by Bose. Try these for yourself and you will understand what I mean.
Thanks so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear the Method 360 ANC earbuds are hitting the mark for you, especially when it comes to comfort, sound quality, and battery life. It’s great to know the fit felt natural right out of the box, and we love that your son had the same experience!
We appreciate the shout-out to Stay-Aware Mode, Rapid Charge, and the Skull-iQ app features. Those little extras can really make a difference in daily use. Also, your feedback on the case size is noted and genuinely appreciated. We’re always working on ways to improve design and portability without sacrificing performance.
Thanks again for the kind words. We’re glad you’re enjoying the experience!

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC earbuds are some of the more unique earbuds I’ve come across, with a few features I’ve never seen before.
First off, the case has a keyring on it, but it’s also very large. It seems designed to hang from a purse or have keys attached to it, rather than be kept in your pocket. The case features a really nice sliding mechanism to open, which has a very satisfying motion and immediately activates the earbuds.
The earbuds themselves have a very tight fit, to the point that they almost feel like earplugs when you put them in. I’ll be honest, this is the kind of fit I typically avoid because I don’t like the “plugged” ear feeling. However, they aren’t as disorienting as other buds I’ve tried with a similar fit.
App-wise, these are likely the most customizable earbuds I’ve ever used. You can do virtually anything, including reprogramming the buttons and sequences to achieve some highly custom features. I think this is where these earbuds stand out the most.
As for sound, these are powered by Bose, and they do not disappoint. They sound like higher-tier earbuds and are overall very balanced. I’m impressed with the audio quality.
They also feature noise cancellation, but I don’t notice much of an effect when using them, again, likely because my ears already feel plugged when I wear them. I can sense it slightly, but if I didn’t know which setting I was on, I wouldn’t be able to say for sure whether noise canceling was turned off or on.
The only issue I’ve encountered is that they intermittently cut out on my iPhone 16 Pro Max. I’ve used them for many hours, all over my house and outside, and I keep having the same experience. They tend to cut out and stutter. cutting back in and out quickly. Everything seems to be updated, but I’m still experiencing this behavior.
Overall, they’re a really great set of earbuds. I probably won’t use them a lot because I don’t like the plugged-ear sensation, but they have great sound and are very secure when wearing them.

Very comfortable as it doesn't go deep into your rest canal. Sound is very good. Noise canceling is decent active aware is not a good as more premium but you can tell a difference between that and noise canceling. The case is large but it can go on your belt loop or elsewhere. Sound is very good. Battery life is the best i have ever used and ive had 6 or 7 different earbuds over the years and normally have 3 at a time. Creates the least amount of itchy ear since it doesn't go deep into the ear canal. Holds in the ear very well and doesn't move. For the price they are probably the best you can get.
Thanks so much for sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review! It’s great to hear you find them comfortable without going too deep in the ear canal—that’s a big plus for long listening sessions. The battery life being the best you’ve experienced really stands out, and it’s awesome that the fit stays secure without irritation. Definitely sounds like a solid value for the price. Do you use them mostly for music, calls, or both?

I’ve used these a handful of times and so far I’m not disappointed. These are fantastic. They fit great in my ears, lightweight, and the sound is great.
I’m blown away that these offer so much at this price. The quality is impressive and it’s less than $100 before taxes. The base hits nicely for music and even does a great job if you’re connected for a phone call.
Pairing was pretty straightforward. Nothing complex, so you should be able to do it with ease. When it comes to charging, I noticed it was really quick. I feel like an hour of charging got me a full battery for these. My only ding is that it’s a usb outlet and not c port.
The sound quality is great. I was pleasantly surprised with how clear and clean sounding the audio is. I’m able to do some minor changes to really enhance the sound. Best of all? They teamed up with Bose to deliver an amazing sound.
Pros:
Bose partnership
Price
Feels great in the ear
Noise canceling
Long lasting battery
Water resistant
Different ear bud size options
Fast charge
Cons:
Case is a little wonky
Charging is usb and not c port
Overall:
Honestly, these are great if you’re looking for a quick upgrade. There are other great options, but you’re really not going to find a better deal at this price.
Thank you so much for the detailed and thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that you're loving the sound quality, fit, and value your earbuds offer — especially the bass and clarity powered by our collaboration with Bose. 🎧🙌
We totally hear you on the case design and charging port feedback — it's input like yours that helps us improve future products. It's awesome to know the fast charge and noise canceling features are hitting the mark for you.
Thanks again for being part of the Skullcandy family — enjoy the music, calls, and everything in between!

After exploring various options for gym earbuds, I initially considered the Powerbeats Pro 2 but ultimately decided to try the Method 360s, and I’m glad I did. As a current user of the Beats Fit Pro, I was experiencing some sound issues, so I was eager for a change.
The Method 360s have truly exceeded my expectations. For the price, they offer remarkable performance. The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is impressive, and the bass response is excellent—perfect for my favorite genres of EDM and Hip-Hop. The sound quality at this price point is undeniably a win, providing a balanced audio experience.
One of the standout features for me is the fit. They sit comfortably in my ears, and I’ve experienced no ear fatigue even during my most intense workouts. I also took a call mid-session, and the person on the other end could tell I was using a headset but still heard me clearly, which is a significant plus.
I noticed there’s an update available once paired with the app, which I believe addresses the loud voice prompts that some users might find distracting.
While the case is on the larger side, it fits easily in my gym bag and is hardly noticeable, so it’s not a dealbreaker.
Overall, the Method 360s are a fantastic choice for anyone looking for reliable and high-quality earbuds for workouts. Highly recommended!

Skullcandy is not the most expensive or well-known headphone brand but they have come a long way. My first pair is from 2018 and still kicking. My second pair, with ANC, had issues, especially with charging. That said, my hopes for these were tempered. Here's what I know:
1. The charging case is HUGE and awkward. It definitely does not discretely slip into a pants pocket.
2. Lack of wireless charging for the case isn't a deal break but it was nice to have.
3. The sound directly out of the box is good. The Bose influence definitely shows up.
4. ANC is good but not perfect. It does cancel a LOT of outside noise though. (Try it in front of the TV and then switch to the surroundings mode)
5. Sound settings are lacking compared to other models. These are tied to the Skull-iQ app instead of the regular Skullcandy app. Because of that, these do not have access to the personalized audio setting. I miss that. It was cool to have a personalized setup based on the hearing test.
6. They fit securely. I have worn them around the house, in the yard, and in the gym and had zero problems with them slipping out.
7. These are missing the Tile app. Again, the case is hard to misplace but it is nice when you can click the app and have your headphones start chirping to find them.
Overall, I am happy with my purchase. I hope they last.

Being partnered with Bose, I wasn’t expecting the sound quality to be anything other than amazing, and I was not disappointed! The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC wireless earbuds sound very clear and crisp with the bass being delivered perfectly even. The highs and lows are great without the need to make any adjustments from genre to genre.
Call quality is acceptable, but the earbuds themselves are a bit too chunky for my ears so I wouldn’t reach for them to take a call. They do come with different sized ear wings and tips, but neither of them really worked well for me so earbuds became uncomfortable to wear after a while. And I’m really going to need Skullcandy to push through an update to reduce the volume of the voice prompts or provide another way to control them. Horrible and can really disrupt my flow!
Other than that, the earbuds hold a nice charge (even though it came with a ridiculously short charging cable). The case is an unusual design and it's odd the way the earbuds go in, but there's no worry of them falling out when you slide it open. And belt/key ring is a nice addition because you can easily hook it to your belt, purse or backpack.

The sound quality is phenomenal and the battery life is extraordinary. The ear buds feel fantastic while wearing them and they stay is place while doing vigorous activities. There are 2 things that could be improved. The first is that it would be nice to have a better way of knowing the remaining charge on the case. The second is that if the groove for the silicone ring that goes on the outside of the ear was about 0.5 mm deeper, i wouldn't have to reposition the ring every time i take it out of my ear. Overall though, fantastic sound quality and a great purchase.

These ear buds sound amazing!! With Bose partnership with the sound is well worth it. The ANC mode is great. These earbuds are comfortable, and the battery life goes for a very long time. I prefer the preset EQ on Bass Boost, which gives your music some really deep lows, nice sounding high & mids. I feel like I’m at a concert when listening to different genres of music!!

I use earbuds regularly and have 6 different pairs that I rotate through any given week or month, so when I saw that Skullcandy & Bose got together on a collab for the 360s, I couldn't resist picking these up.
TL;DR for my frequent readers with the details below.
Good:
Sound
Comfort
Charging Case Style / Innovation
Battery Life
USB-C
Touch Controls
Meh:
Position of the earbuds in the charging case
The App
Silicone ring slips
Bulk of the case
Muffled feedback voice
Bad:
Nothing 'bad'
So right off the bat, I got a look at this innovatively cool sliding charging case that can easily hook onto my backpack. Note: When you first get these, there's a cover on the earbuds' contact so if you charge them before actually using them, you're only charging the case! Remove the earbuds and the little sticker, then charge them! USB-C is great as that's pretty much my only charging cable these days.
Charging was pretty quick though I wasn't counting. There seems to be a common thing these days when both buds are charging the may or may not each reach 100% at the same time and after putting them in your ears, it's already 98-99%. While I imagine this will be a software update fix, it's noticeable right now.
On the earbuds that look VERY much like the Bose QuietComfort earbuds, but with a Skullcandy logo, is a button that doesn't click. When you tap the button on the ear buds, you hear what sounds like a 'clunk.' As you tap the button the clunk gets a bit higher pitched, so you know (out of 3) which function you're about to use on the buds (skip track, volume up, take a picture, etc). Oh yeah, you can assign your earbud to be a remote camera shutter - that's pretty slick.
A 'meh' piece of the App, is that it doesn't show what mode you're until you open the menu; I'd like to see the ANC icon vs the "stay aware" - hear-through mode displayed. Each of the modes do allow for customization - more or less; I find the more customization you can have, the better. I did find the App had trouble reconnecting to the earbuds if it was in the background, but closing / opening again allowed them to connect again without issue.
When you take your earbuds out and go to put them back in the case, you have to turn them upside down to put them in and if you turn them, as you go, you run the risk of pulling the outer silicone ring out of the guide - ask me how I know this? I'd like to take the buds out and put them right in, but that's not the case here as even the skulls are upside down, when the carabiner kind of ring is up / USB port facing down.
When it comes to sounds + ANC, these are really good. I was caught off guard with the bass and the clarity of acoustic guitars and the clarity of the vocals makes these so enjoyable to listen through. I found myself going outside to relax in the wonderful weather and put these in. The sound of the pool pump chugging along was gone, the loud cardinals were silenced and they are so comfortable. There's a custom EQ (only 1), that works well and have found myself use my custom EQ more than the default.
So, if you want a Bose-like style, great sound and don't mind fiddling with the silicone ring from time to time and a bit of a bulky case - then these are a steal at their launch price.

I’ve been using the Skullcandy Method 360 ANC for about 2 weeks now, and honestly… I’m impressed. I bought them because I wanted something with solid noise canceling for under $150, and these actually surprised me. The ANC blocks out most of the noise when I’m riding the bus or at the gym—it’s not completely silent like Bose or Sony, but it’s close enough for this price.
The sound is definitely bass-heavy, which I personally love. If you’re a hip-hop or R&B listener like me, you’ll enjoy the deep lows. I did mess with the EQ in the Skull-iQ app to boost the mids a bit and now vocals come through way cleaner. The app is easy to use too, which is a plus.
Fit-wise, they’re comfy and don’t fall out when I move around or dance. The wingtips help a lot. I can wear them for hours and not feel sore. Battery life is great—I only charge the case like once a week.
Now the case… that’s the only thing I don’t love. It’s big and kinda awkward in your pocket. But I just clip it to my bag and keep it moving, so it’s not a dealbreaker.

I did a lot of research into these earbuds and for $90~ they are easily one of the best available for the price. I haven’t charged the case in days and they still have battery, they don’t fall out of the case when you drop them like my AirPods always would, the customization with the taps is far better than expected. Now for the downsides they are also a few. The first when your are trying to put them back in the case they are difficult at first, it seems like they were made like this because the designers thought you’d always have them on your pants like you would a lanyard because you have to put them back in the case upside down, this was quite annoying at times but now that I have them attached to my belt throughout the day I have 0 complaints. And the only other bad thing I can say about these is the left or right earbud not connecting when you put them straight in your ear. 9 out of 10 times both will connect no issue but sometimes when I take them both out of the case then put them into my ear one of them won’t be connected so I’ll have to put it back into the case close it and try again until it does. Like I said it’s only every other time so not that much of a problem either. And then the only other thing I have to say is that the ANC(Active Noise Cancellation) is quite good for the price of the earbuds without anything playing you will still be able to hear some things but when listening to something at even 30% volume you won’t be able to hear anything at all. So with only one or two issues and a amazing price of $90 this product deserves a 4 Star rating for sure.

Just grabbed the Skullcandy Method ANC earbuds, and let me tell you — these little guys pack more punch than my morning coffee. The sound is crisp, the bass thumps just right, and the noise canceling? Let’s just say I didn’t hear your mom call me for dinner (again, don’t tell her).
They stay put during yard work, walks, and even my “attempts” at jogging. And the battery lasts longer than one of my classic dad stories (which is saying something).
If you want earbuds that sound great, stay in place, and cancel out the chaos — these are a no-brainer.
