Skullcandy - Indy True Wireless In-Ear Headphones - Black

So I had a pair of the Sesh- loved them but lost them. So I wanted something with less of a "push touch" feature but still candy... so went with these due to touch sensitive and heard good reviews on bass. Wanted them for work and the gym.... well, a ft ter about 10 resets, 20 cut outs AT THE GYM(Which kills the vibe), plus them not staying in my ear... I'm returning and trading up to the galaxy buds to try them. I'm still planning on getting the Verts from candy for snow season... hoping that changing perspective on candy. But in regards to these, highly dont recommend. Get the sesh or go with the wired/wireless headphones as I've used those and they're great. Stay away from the indys.

I’ve always loved the sound that skull candy products produce. But these things constantly disconnect for no reason. And now just after 7 months the left side stopped pairing or charging. Good thing I got the geek squad extended warranty. If this happens again I’ll have to bite it and go with AirPods.

I’ve been using Skullcandy headphones for a decade or so, and each generation just keeps getting better. I look forward to their next generation of Bluetooth products!

I really like this headset, it really only has one downside and it’s when you turn them on. I found that if I turn on the right before the left then I have to press on both to turn on, when if you press the left side first it turns on both sides. I don’t know if that is just me or what but that is the only downside so far. (Outside of not having anywhere else to put them in besides the charging station)

These Skullcandy Indy in-earphones are the best I have had yet! The Indy is easy to setup/pair to your phone and once setup they are easy to use as they turn on and pair as soon as you take them out of the charging case. They also turn off automatically when put back in the case and closed. Sound quality with media is amazing with clear highs and mids and good bass. Outside noise is near zero. Call sound quality was very good as well. The touch controls are simple and easy to use. The fit of the Indy's was great for me being snug and comfortable.

I really love them so much, way better than AirPods

I bought them because I thought they look sleek and cool. Regret it on the first few days. They are bulky, fall of easily even with the different gummies they provide. Doesn’t read the right touch inputs. The left ear piece has scratchy audio. Disconnects sometimes and it’s hard to reconnect at times. Lost the rubber piece that’s on top of the right ear piece the second I put it on my pocket. The hinge on the charging case closes fast that it gets annoying taking them out, which is also a hassle sometimes. I will be returning them ASAP!! Will never buy skull candy ever again. Avoid it at all cost.

If you like heavy bass and have never had a problem with the fit of average earbuds, then Skullcandy's Indy are for you. The Bluetooth range is excellent (about 40 feet indoors) and the touch controls ensure that you don't have to press the buds deep into your ear to change the track, or to adjust the volume. They will play a full 4 hours before they need to be returned into their case which can then fully charge them 3 additional times (for a total playback of about 16 hours). Personally, I have narrow ear canals and simply could not get the earbuds to stay in. Even while sitting motionless at my desk they would suddenly pop out of my ears. I added my own 3rd party rubber tips from my wired earbuds, but even then - the earbuds would simply not stay in. The design is rather bulky and it appears that Skullcandy made very little effort to find a way to keep them in your ears. They come with no rubber fins and no way to hook onto your ear (or rest inside the ear). They are only held in place by the rubber tips and because they are rather bulky, their weight causes them to lean outwards and eventually fall out. ...I personally would not be able to use these while working out, or while on my bike as they would fall to the ground and be lost. I was also taken back by just how bass heavy they are. I found the bass even more amplified than my over-the-ear Beats Studio headphones. (Not stronger bass, but more pronounced - which I found annoying.) I quickly went to my equalizer to lower the bass so that I could find a more suitable balance with mids & highs. While I was initially excited that the Indy features touch controls, I found that they only responded about 75% of the time. When listening to music in the office, it wasn't a big deal - but, when working out or when on my bike, I simply couldn't take the time needed to fiddle with them until they respond the way I intended. Another distraction was just how much ambient noise they blocked out with the rubber tips. Because they sit so deep in the ear canal, most surrounding noise is blocked out. This is all well and good until somebody is trying to talk to you. I found that I had to remove them in order to communicate at all. And, when using them to talk on the phone, you cannot hear your own voice - which is odd and distracting. Unfortunately, Skullcandy did not program them to amplify or playback any of your own audio/voice when you are speaking on the phone - which is an unsettling experience. Apple's Airpods (which seem to be the most popular Bluetooth earbuds at the current time) are more expensive, but I believe they are worth the extra expense. They are smaller, have a longer battery life, fit much more snug and with a lower profile, they don't mute out all ambient noise, and they take up less space - even inside of their case. The wireless headphone experience truly is fantastic. If you love Bass and if earbuds generally fit well in your ears, you will enjoy the Indy. ...But, I hope that Skullcandy takes the time to redesign their wireless earbuds to offer a better fit, a lower profile, and a more balanced listening experience. ***See the attached pictures for a visual comparison with the size and fit of the Airpods***
