Earbuds hurt no matter the size, right bud won't charge, no wind noise cancelling feature, runs out out battery to quick.

When I first took the headphones out of the charger case I dropped them. You have to be careful pulling them out of the case and putting them back in. If you've had airpods before you would know it does not matter how you orient them, they will eventually be pulled in the right direction and sit inside the case correctly. For these that's not the case so just be more careful. These came charged so I was able to test them right away. I did have to glance at the manual on how to pair them. I thought I could just do it myself, but you have to be pay attention to the lights these give off. Also, when you put them in your ears, they will say pairing mode so that is another indication. The first time I put them in my ears I did not hear that. The voice that gives you feedback is nearly twice as loud as your music. It is the voice that will say things like "pairing mode," "disconnected" or "noise cancelling mode." I do feel like they need to quieten the voice a lot. They also recommend downloading two companion applications. Skullcandy and Skull-IQ. As of this writing the Skullcandy application does not recognize the headphones. This is fine because the Skull-IQ app does, and you are able to do a variety of features with it. You are able to tap the buds for them to do features just like most other earbuds. However, the tap does not always work, so I usually slide my finger down them. So for example if I'm doing a double tap I'll slide my finger down the earbuds twice really quick. It's also gentler on my ears to do it this way. At the top of the companion app it shows the battery. You can also tap on that section to see if there is a firmware update. The next section is the hearing mode page. ANC On, ANC Off & Stay Aware. The noise cancelling seems to be powered by Bose. For $100 headphones these are what you expect. Not the best noise cancelling but pretty good. These modes can be cycled through by tapping on the headphones. There is an intensity level slider which can adjust the amount of "Noise Cancelling" or "Stay Aware" that affects the buds. Equalizer page just has set presets and these are the options: music, bass boost, podcast & custom. Skullcandy is known for their bass so that is the one I picked. I have to say, it has not disappointed. On the button settings page I changed the mapping a lot. I removed the ability to turn off ANC. I removed the Spotify tap feature. You can program the left and right headphones to their own controls. For example, double tapping my left earbud will go the previous track. This was not the default. There is a single tap which I have programmed to pause/play. There is also a triple tap and one second hold. These taps can change volume, take a photo, activate your phone's assistant and answer calls. Note: The custom programming for this got reset once without my intervention and I'm not sure how. The Spotify tap feature will cycle through your most recent collections you've listened to. Recent albums, liked songs, playlists, etc. Essentially the music at the at top of your app. This is a feature I have off. I usually just listen to my liked songs anyway. There are a few features I have not tried like multipoint pairing or low latency audio. I'm not planning on using these with more than one device or gaming with these. But it's cool that these could be your all in one headphone device. I've never been someone who likes in-ear headphones. These did not change that for me. Although I will get a use out of these, I would never use these for long term usage. If I need to wear headphones for a long time I will use over-the-ear or air pods. They are more comfortable. These do fit snug. You do not need to worry about these falling out of your ear if you have the right size tip on. In my opinion the charging case is a little big. There is a clip loop on it so you can attach it to your bag, your pant's loop or something else. I always put my airpods case in a pocket and this case doesn't always fit the same pockets I've been using. The website advertises over 30+ hours of ANC on. I think they could've sacrificed some playtime for a case that isn't 4 times as large as competitors. Here is where I'm going to need to take away one star. I get connectivity issues. Sometimes I put in the headphones and only one plays music. Then I have to put them both back in the case and then pull them out. Have had to do that a dozen times already. Sometimes one bud will have a static noise playing. So I will have to put them both back in the case and pull them out. Here is the most annoying bit. It has happened to me twice where I kept trying to get the one bud to play music. I put it in the case and pulled it out of the case. The bud does not even make an audible tone. I followed the instructions they recommended. So I tried disconnecting and reconnecting. Only one bud works still. I tried these steps multiple times and I read the sheet, it says you can hold on the buds for 6 seconds to do a factory reset/clear paired device list. It will also put it in pairing mode. That worked but it's insane the amount of times it just does not work. It makes me wonder too, I know that trick now, but what if I took these headphones on a plane and did not know about that trick. The app is not helpful because it loads a website of a guide, not a guide that can be built into the app. Maybe the connectivity would be better if I was an android user? They got all these features, some cool, some gimmicks but at the end of the day, I need headphones that work 100% of the time whenever I'm taking them out of the case. As is it right now, it's maybe a 90% chance they will work normal. These are something I can still recommend to people. There is a possibility these get better with a firmware update. However, at this moment, if you're planning a run, or a workout you need to factor in a couple extra minutes before, because you might have to fully disconnect these and repair them before you start. I would recommend not putting these back into the case if you're talking to someone, or leaving them out of your ears for too long, because they will get weird on you. Then you'll have to spend another couple minutes repairing...

I am writing this review for the Skullcandy Method 360 ANC True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds. As I unpacked the Skullcandy Method earbuds, the very first thought I had was, “What the….?” As with every other pair of self-charging earbuds I own, I was expecting some version of a smallish box-like holder, not a longish sliding cylinder-type holder. But there it was. A million thoughts were going through my mind, but I decided to wait until after I had tested these earbuds out before I passed any judgment. Like I just said, the earbuds come in a rather unique holder, somewhat akin to a Pez candy dispenser. As I slid the cover down, I noticed each earbud had its own side for storage. Due to its unique (yet intriguing) design, getting the earbuds out was a bit of a struggle, so much so that I have discovered the easiest way to dislodge them is to simply lightly-slap the case across the edge of my cupped hand. This is most likely due to the fact that I don’t have long slender fingers or long fingernails, both of which would make retrieving the earbuds much easier. This isn’t to say that getting them out of the holder is super difficult, its just that the earbuds themselves are very sleek and smooth, and there is a tendency to shoot them off into space, much like squeezing a greased marble. I couldn’t help but marvel at the overall design of the Skullcandy Method earbuds. Although similar in design to other earbuds, they are able to lay claim to their own little niche. For example, as I unpacked the earbuds from their product box, I noticed that not only do they come with the standard three-size ear tips, but they also come with three different sizes of what Skullcandy calls “Fit Fins.” It was not until after I put the first earbud in that I discovered how remarkably ingenious and practical these Fit Fins really are! As I placed the first earbud in my ear, I was stunned (in a very good way) by how perfectly it fit into my ear! And when I say perfectly, I mean perfectly! I knew immediately that as far as fit goes, these are probably the most absolute best earbuds on the planet. Its like they’re not something stuck in your ear, but rather it is as though they seamlessly become a part of your ear. Yes, you can feel them, but at the same time you almost don’t. The Fit Fins adapt to the shape of your ear canal and create a perfect fit, sealing out airflow and background noises. There is no cramming them into the ear, you simply insert, and give a little twist. That’s it. I knew after putting them in my ear that these were going to be those earbuds I never had to worry about losing, whether just taking it easy at home, or working out in the gym. I have even shook my head forcefully for several seconds just trying to get them to come out, and they just won’t. As with all earbuds, there is a bit of learning to do to understand how the controls work. In the end, the controls are exactly like most other earbuds…Play/Pause, Next, ANC modes, Accept/End Call. Now, they do have their own unique controls as well in that you can surf recommendations using the Spotify app. I can’t speak much about this feature because I don’t use Spotify, but the concept is good. The real question is, how do they sound? The answer is, “Remarkable!” Skullcandy partnered with Bose to produce a sound experience that in my opinion is far superior to any other earbud on the market at this price. With Bose’s own proprietary audio tuning technology, the Method earbuds produce rich bass, clear mids and crisp highs. Now although that may sound like a blurb from the Method specs, one cannot wear these and not come away with any other description that would be suitable. As I went through all my playlists to choose various music, I was continuously amazed at the sound delivery, even at highest volume. Absolutely zero distortion. I will say this however, that I somewhat expected the max volume to be greater than it is with the Method earbuds. But the more I thought about it, I could see the reasoning behind a somewhat limited max volume…to prevent hearing loss. Gotta give Skullcandy their props for looking out for us! To get down to where the rubber meets the road, these are some great sounding and great fitting earbuds. I have two other sets of earbuds that come in at around 4X the price of the Methods, but because of the superior fit and the great ANC capabilities, the Methods are now my primary choice. Make no mistake about it, the Skullcandy Method 360 ANC True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds are the real deal. Do yourself a huge favor and get yourself a pair

Do not waste your money on this product it does not last as you think when it comes to battery Plus for some odd reason whenever there is a pronunciation of the s or anything that sounds like the s it's a squeaking noise that the headphones produce and another thing here for tea really quick with these headphones I do not recommend these

These headphones were way to big for my ears and ended up being painful to wear.

I hate them . I was sucked in by the color range price and bose endorsement. First issue is they barely fit in your ear, even trying all the different options. They're also extremely heavy, so constant worry of them falling out. The case I thought it was cute at first and I'd really love it. But it's again so big. So heavy unnecessarily big. I'm actually gonna see if I can return them.

Instructions are extremely easy compared to some earbuds I have had in the past. You just need to follow the very simple instructions in the guide that comes with them. These instructions aren’t as confusing as some earbuds instructions can be. After charging the earbuds, they will give you about 10 hours of listening time. Put the earbuds back in the case (x2) and you can get another 20 hours more of life from the case before needing to be fully charged again. My one downfall is that there is no wireless charging with these, but for the price, I wouldn't complain. You have to use the USB-C cable that comes with these to charge them. The sound coming out of these earbuds is truly amazing. Since they state the sound is by Bose, this is not surprising. With the Skull-iQ app to change the equalizer to your preference, you will get the best sound for you, no matter what you are watching or listening to. You will want to download the Skull-iQ App to get the best out of these earbuds. The app allows you to change the equalizer to the three different presets and customize it to your taste from your phone or tablet. You are able to change hearing modes like ANC (noise canceling) and stay aware of your surroundings. You can even change the button settings to your liking on your earbuds, like how to answer or end calls, etc. Change the setting to whatever works best for you. I love this option!!! When you first look at the case for these earbuds, some may think it is rather large to carry around in your pocket. However, with the clip that comes on the case, you can easily attach it to a jacket, backpack or the belt loop on your jeans. I think having the clip is an excellent idea for many reasons. The size of the clip itself is a bit large (more like a key chain), so that you can hang it. I hang my ear bud case near the kitchen door on the wall key holder when not in use. This way the earbuds and case are easily accessible when leaving the house. I am less likely to forget them. Also, I don’t have to be searching the house to find them. This is a huge plus in my estimation. I have lost a few earbuds in the past. I would recommend these for the sound quality alone with Skullcandy teaming with Bose on these earbuds and they are very comfortable in my ears. I think another great plus is all of the additional things you can do to make them custom to what you like for great sound.

On the whole, this is a really nice true wireless headset from Skullcandy. The basics are all there with solid battery life (both in the headset itself and even more in the charging case), great comfort while wearing (the changable "wing" sizes allows for great balance between comfort and a secure fit, and I never felt like they were going to fall out unlike other competitor products that I've tried) and great sound on both the listening and the microphones for picking up speaking. The shape of the headset is a bit more ergonomic than other "pocket" sized headsets I've tried with a small projection where the microphone sits to point it at / get it closer to your mouth for better sound. The headset was easy to get going - it charges fast and the setup / pairing process with my newer iPhone was pretty seamless. You can also install the Skullcandy app for more customization / settings particularly in the soundstage, but you don't have to use it if you don't want to. And the whole thing seems to be pretty well made, like it should be quite durable and last a while in use. So that's all really good, right? And they ARE really good - hence the 5 star review. But I do wish that the case was a bit smaller. At 3 3/4" x 1 1/2" x 1 1/4" (roughly - the edges are round, etc. - and there's a permanently installed rubber lanyard connector that extends beyond that size), it's pretty big to be truly "pocketable" unlike competitor offerings. That's partially due to the shape of the headset pieces (they're each fairly big themselves) but also due to the design of the case. I do think there's be a way to make a more compact case without giving up headset shape or other functionality. That said, using this headset at home with my computer to attend Zoom calls and listen to music, I don't mind a touch bigger case - and the quality / ease of use and great sound make these an easy recommend and far outweigh how portable the case is. So if you're ok with a slightly bigger case, these are a great headset option from a solid company. Give them a try today!

I saw these headphones at this price point and figured I'd give these a chance. A few of my older sets are wearing out and my higher end ones I don't like to use outdoors doing things . I had good luck with another entry level set from skullcandy,so these with “sound by bose” and so I said yes. I have a soundbar by bose in my bedroom and it's fantastic, and these here are also. Fit, feal and build is excellent. These are rhe most secure earbuds I have short of the ones with over the ear clips. The touch controls are very responsive. There are 3 sets of seals and bud tips to switch around to get a good seal. These have an additional rubber piece to fit into the lobe of the ear, and it helps a ton. The application is top notch. Band customizable equilozer, 3 descent presets, and then the buttons you can set up for 1,2,3 taps and long hold. Then you can set how to tap on or off calls. You can assign a virtual assistant or streaming service also. I don't use either, but it's there. Now the sound on these. Holy cow. I have sets 2 to 4 times the cost of these that these can keep right with. The active noise cancellation is just fantastic. Things are crisp, symmetrical, and can give you a great 3d like sound in your head and shut out the outside world. Punchy bass, and clear upper tones. Skullcandy to me doesn't carry the “premium” label in my mind as does bose, and looking at these, the box is the only thing that lets you know that. I like that because it won't draw attention to people with nepharious purposes, and for kids that are sensitive to brand labels, all you have to do is get them to listen to these, and if they let their brains and logic drive them, there would be no need to spend more for earbuds. I have had these for a week and the battery life is enough to get through a day as much as i use them, and they claim 40 hours with the rapid charge case. These could be the best value last set of earbuds you buy. Comfortable, superb sound and controls. Without hesitation, 5 stars. Just excellent ear buds. These buds are a fantatic value.

Muddy. Definitely very muddy. Extremely poor call quality. Just cheap junk.

First, I want to say that I own a couple other Skullcandy headphones, primarily over the ear non-ANC type and I love them. So, going into this, I was expecting the same sound and results. For me, I got the same Skullcandy sound but I did not get the same results I was looking for. First off, they pair really easy and have a unique charging case, that I really like. They can clip onto your bag with the included metal clip (however, ours broke within the week). For me, they sound excellent, but do not fit my ear very well. This causes the ANC not to work as well as it should. My wife, however, loves them and they have become her go to earbuds. They fit well, don't hurt her ears after longer wearing sessions. Now, we both ran into connection issues that I was unable to rectify on the connecting piece or through the app. I was unable to keep them connected to my laptop for more than a few seconds and my wife was unable to connect at all to her iPad. Both were visible and ready to pair, just would not do it. Overall, if you are going to use these to connect to your phone for the gym, walking, etc., they will do just fine. I would give 4.5 starts since we have connection issues and the metal clip broke in the first week. Not deal breakers because the sound and fit are so good!

Let me start by saying I love these ear buds. Skullcandy working with Bose is a great partnership. The sound is immersive and pitch perfect. The design is outstanding. They are very comfortable in ear. And the charging case, they knocked it out of the park. I love the design of the case. My only drawback, ironically, is the case. I have had these for a few weeks now, and I still struggle getting the buds on the correct side and getting them to connect to charge. It feels like the buds are on the wrong side of the charger. It really is hard to explain, it is just a feel. I thought I would be over it by now. ANC is really well done and easily adjusted in the app. Pass through doesn't give you that weird feeling sound change I have had with other buds. It just reduces the ANC to a level you can hear. Controls are very customizable, you can override any of the tap settings on the buds from the app. But these are the best sounding buds I have had since a pair of Bose I had a few years ago. That case was so small, I ended up losing the buds. This case is much more substantial and the design is just so different it is hard not to notice the case. I am blown away. These are easily my go to buds for anything I am doing.

Build: I really like the unique style of the headphone case. It seems big and bulky at first, but when you actually use it, the case feels more correctly described as rugged. The attached clip is great for attaching to your bag or belt buckle and ensures you always have it on hand. Comfort: These are fairly comfortable earbuds and have multiple fit options included in the box. I had no real complaints with extended use sessions. These also stay in place with very little movement while being active. Sound: This is where these become a little of a mixed bag. They have what I would call a 'fun' V-shaped sound. Starting at the bottom, these have a large bass presence. The bass is tight, especially when considering the amount present. The mids and upper mids are definitely scooped out and result in flattened vocals that come off a muffled or chesty. The highs are nothing really to comment on. They are there and don't display any sibilance but do lack some detail. There is a pretty good EQ built into the Skullcandy App and it can bring some of the mids back, but it does very little to recover detail. All in these earbuds are very easy to listen to and unless you are picky about the sound signature you listen to, these will please most people. Features: Being a collaboration with BOSE, I would expect these to have good ANC and I would definitely say they deliver on this front. These did a great job blocking out all the various noise sources in my house to included the kids =). The passthrough leaves a bit to be desired. It will allow you to maintain awareness in your surroundings but having a conversation is almost entirely out of the question. For whatever reason the passthrough seems to have a cut filter in the frequency where most voices reside. Every time I needed to speak with someone I would end up removing one of the earbuds, which luckily pauses the audio when you do so. Cons: I have no idea who at Skullcandy listened to the voice prompts in these earbuds and thought, "oh yeah everyone is gonna love that" First they are too loud which makes them sounds splotchy and flat. Second they sound like they were designed to fit on the memory chip of a talking birthday card from the 90's. I really feel Skullcandy could address this with some higher fidelity voice recordings and fix the volume issue.

I’ll just say up front, the two issues I have with these as the value they are is absolutely incredible so if you are looking for an awesome sounding headset at a reasonable price point and you don’t mind the two issues I have then I couldn’t recommend these enough. The size of the case and the “connected” voice. The case is simply too large for me to carry these daily, I keep them in my work bag and use them at work now because I always have a backpack at work so I have a place to keep them. The case is awesome with the clip but it’s still too big even trying to clip it to a belt loop for me at least. My daily headphones need to be able to fit nicely in my front pocket and I’d rather have to charge the case every night and have it be smaller than last longer and not be comfortable in my pocket. The connected voice is annoyingly loud, this isn’t really a thing that kills this product in my mind, but it’s annoying and I haven’t found a way to change the volume of the voice. It is the same volume no matter the volume that I have set. In a loud environment it’s nice, in a quiet environment it is uncomfortably loud. Because of the size of the case the battery/case goes for quite some time without needing a recharge, so if this is important to you there is an definite advantage for having such a large case. The ear buds are comfortable, these have to be the best fitting buds I have, they stay in my ears no matter what I am doing, I am used to having to push these types of buds in every once in awhile or they will slip out of my ears, doesn’t matter the brand, I haven’t had a pair fit this good in years. The sound is awesome, I love the base, the noise cancellation is excellent as well. The quality for the price is kind of insane compared to other headphones I’ve used. The controls I actually have enabled, most of the time I need to disable them between them being too sensitive and me needing to push the ear buds back in but these I am able to actually have them and use them and appreciate them. Overall, these are just awesome value if you can get over the size of the case or if that that is a benefit to you because of the number of recharges it can do.

The Skullcandy METHOD 360 ANC TRUE WIRELESS earbuds are a solid choice for this price-point. I found that they were ready to pair right away and had no problem connecting them. However, for some reason, my right earbud went off a few times during my first usage, in spite of the fact the voice said it was fully charged. After the first day, though, I did not have that problem again. I found the sound-quality to be solid, but not exceptional. However, the app is very useful and enabled me to find a good balance via the custom EQ feature. The stock music setting lacked enough bass for me, but the ‘bass boost’ was too much, so I was able to set it to my liking. I appreciate being able to customize the choices for the various tap or hold options. As is usual with most wireless earbuds, it took me a little while to adjust to where I need to touch the bud to activate the features. I appreciate the ANC feature (automatic noise cancellation), but the contrast between when it’s on or off is not nearly as noticeable with earbuds as it is with headphones. But that is to be expected. I like the sliding-case design a lot. However, I wish the clip attachment could be removed. I know it’s a Skullcandy thing, but that doesn’t fit my particular use scenario. All-in-all, the Skullcandy METHOD 360 ANC TRUE WIRELESS earbuds are a solid choice for the price.

These skull candy ANC headphones are similar to other true wireless buds that have a slightly larger presence in the ears which lends itself to longer battery life and larger drivers for deeper bass and clear sounds. The sound by Bose really seems to make a difference with the buds and the performance feels similar to an old pair of Bose sound sports that I loved. The voices and highs are quite clear and clean on all types of music. They are actually a little heavy on low end which is which is shocking for how small they are. I don’t quite know how to define the case / charging device. It’s almost like a slim water bottle and far larger than one would expect for ear buds of this size. The battery life of both the buds and the case is respectable, and the loop on the case makes them easy to attach to a bag or inside a purse to keep them from getting lost. Active noise cancelling is better than it has a right to be at the price point. These are still not a replacement for Bose quiet comfort or apple airpod pros, but they also shed close to $100-$200 from those other headphones. I would recommend these buds as a value proposition for someone seeking active noise cancelling.

The Skull headphones have been a really neat product to try out. It was fairly easy to get them to pair to my phone. I like that there are plenty of different sized plastic pieces to change the size of the ear pieces. this makes the comfort much better. the sound quality is amazing. These block out everything. the noise cancelling is superb! it is super easy to use the controls on the actual earbud. I also really like the clip on the case that you could potentially hang on a bag. now lets talk about the cons. why is the case HUMONGOUS?? you could fit 4 headphones in the length of this thing. it doesn't fit in a purse. it is huge on my bag, it is bulky for NO REASON. at least put a slot for the charging cord? I honestly pick any other earphone case to take with me because I have no where to store the case and its bigger than my purse. Also, I hate that when you are looking at the logo, the Left and Right are on the wrong side. so I have to hold the case, logo out to have the correct left and right?

I needed to replace my guy headphones, and bass is a MUST, and these did not disappoint. As an avid headphone reviewer and basshead, these have plenty of good bass (not as much as the CMF Bud Pro 2) and decent noise cancelling (higher tones still leak through). They stay put in my ears, and the shape of the buds is a replica of the Bose Ultras, so if you don't like that design, don't get these. One issue that SHOULD be easily fixed with a firmware update is the loud voice prompts! It is AWFUL! Please, Skullcandy, lower the volume or give a choice to have prompts!

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC True Wireless earbuds are a nice set of earbuds with great sound. They come well packaged which includes the charging case with earbuds, a charging cable, different sized ear tips, and instruction manuals. The manuals have step by step directions, but the font is somewhat small. It may be OK, for some but it’s a bit small to read for my aging eyes. The earbuds paired easily with my iPhone. There are voice prompts that tell you when it’s connected, along with other features. I found the voice prompts to be too loud and I was not able to find a way to disable them or turn the volume of the voice prompts down. In order to get the best sound and features from the earbuds, you will need to download and install the Skull-IQ app for your mobile device. The app allows you to adjust hearing modes, EQ settings, etc. The sound quality of the earbuds is awesome. I’m able to use the Bass Boot setting or Customized EQ to enable that extra bass, which I like while listening to Hip-Hop and R&B music. The earbuds can be paired with 2 different devices at the same time, allowing you to switch between the two of them quickly. The earbuds can be listened to independently, allowing you to listen to one earbud while charging the other. It has a unique charing case. It’s not the typical clamshell case, but it’s a long case that slides to open and close. My only gripe is the location of the left and right earbud. While facing the case they appear to be on opposite sides of what I’m used to. When facing the case, the left earbud is on the right side, and the right earbud is on the left side. I have to turn the case around and look at it from the ear of the case. The buttons are on the side of each earbud is very easy to press and enable. You can customize the taps for various operations using the Skull-IQ ap. The earbuds come with active noise reduction, which works great. Overall, these are some great earbuds with excellent sound.

The Skullcandy METHOD 360 ANC TRUE WIRELESS earbuds provide great sounding technology. I can hear the collaboration between Skullcandy and Bose to manufacture these powerful stereophonic producing earbuds. The rear of the earbuds have a huge driver system embedded to give the sound of every octave of the music range. Highs and lows sound in perfect pitch and vocals give the impression the vocalist is signing right in my presence. The earbuds required a brief charging before I tried to pair them with my device. Once charged and my Bluetooth was turned on, Method 360 ANC popped up on my screen and once tapped my device connected and the dynamic sound of the Skullcandy METHOD 360 ANC TRUE WIRELESS was most definitely appreciated. I can really have a private party inside my head with the great vibrations of these earbuds. Tapping either bud controls the functionality of the system. The only command that did not work was the track forward command. no matter how many times I doubled tapped the earbuds, the same song would restart, instead of playing the next track. Besides that problem, I could not pick up on any other functional problems with the earbuds. These Skullcandy METHOD 360 ANC TRUE WIRELESS earbuds are now my go to earbuds for daily listening.
