SkullcandyMethod 360 ANC Wireless Earbuds, Sound by Bose, Bluetooth Headphones, Premium Noise Cancelling, Up to 40 Hrs Battery, Sweat and Water Resistant, Microphone for iPhone Android - True Black

I got these 3 days ago, and they are EXCELLENT. I'm extremely picky about headphones, and have never found a pair of buds that I liked, even at 3x the price. They're comfy, they actually stay in, the sound quality is awesome with lots of bass, the microphone is excellent at canceling out background noise (although they do make your voice sound kind of flat and robotic,) and the noise canceling and aware modes are both amazing. The case is really cool and I LOVE that they can clip on to my belt loop or a lanyard, because I lose EVERYTHING due to my ADHD. 😂 The magnets keep the buds in place when the case is open... I was shaking it really hard to see if they'd fall out or go flying, and they didn't budge. There are a few things that are small annoyances, like when you change modes or connect to bluetooth, the voice is SUPER LOUD, and there's no battery indicator for the case except for the LED light indicators... however, I'd still guess the price point for these to be $250-300, and they're only $100.I wasn't expecting much as I'd been following the sponsored reviews before they were available for purchase - and sometimes those can be a little biased. However, I was entirely blown away by these buds!The only problem with them really is that now my entire family wants a pair. 😭😆

Pretty happy with these.So I come from using AirPods to AirPod pros to AirPod pro 2. Been pretty happy with my AirPods. I use my headphones around 50 hours a week so I use and abuse them. Well most recently the speaker blew in one of my AirPod pro 2’s. Randomly I was on TikTok and saw a posting about these and decided to give them a go.So far they are amazing. They have great sound like Bose does. I am in a physical job where I am consistently moving. I would deal with my AirPod pros falling out of my ear (cause my ears are oily). These ones stay snug in the ear. I can rock my head, look down, and they stay snug and comfortable.I work in the grocery industry going into freezers where fans can be really loud. If these are in noice cancellation mode and I can barely hear anything besides your music, which is amazing.Now these aren’t 100% perfect. I personally think the carry case is too big. Once again I am coming from a small AirPod pro case. Throw it in my pocket and it’s similar size to a car key fob. This case is a lot bigger and awkward to keep in my pocket.When you put the headphones in the prerecorded voice will say your battery percentage. While that can be cool I find it more annoying than anything.BUT overall these are an amazing price for everything that you get with these. I am sure that I will discover more about these and find other things to love about them since I have only used them two days.Yet I highly recommend these and think they are worth the money.

Through and through, these are exactly what I would hope for from a Skullcandy x Bose collaboration. The sound is immaculate, while the styling is strong, ergonomic, and the Skull-IQ app is extremely easy to use and helpful for customizing the equalizer and button tap features on the earbuds. The case is probably the only uncertainty point as it's a little awkwardly large, but it does securely house the earbuds and seems durable. The earbuds connect quickly and have a reasonably good battery life even at high volume with ANC on. The earbuds themselves have winglet attachments for the inner ear and oval shaped earbuds which i find more comfortable, but that's going to be personal preference. At full retail price these are a great pair of earbuds and on sale i'm not sure if there's a better pair for the price.

Ohhhh my. The hype machine is in full gear with these bad boys. Everyone online seems to be fawning over these, even Flossy Carter has weighed in. And you know what that means.Whenever Flossy Carter gives a positive review, you can almost watch the sales curve jump through the roof.. And such as the case when Flossy recently reviewed this set of "premium" earbuds by... yeah you read that right. Skullcandy.Skullcandy isn't the first name to come in mind when you think premium audio products. Nor does the Skullcandy demographic invoke images of audiophiles discussing the size of the sound space or about sound profiles at given frequency ranges.In fact, when Skullcandy writes "Sound by Bose" you can be forgiven if you think that Skullcandy simply paid a hefty price to put Bose on the outside of the box. You might even suspect "Bose" of selling out, simply collecting a check for the use of their IP on the outside.But make no mistake, these earbud's clearly have Bose DNA in them. And even if you aren't the type that wears stocking caps or clips your earbuds to a backpack or belt loop, the slightly less sophisticated appearance of these is immediately forgotten when you hit "play".Now if you are expecting Bose level ANC, let me dissuade you of that idea immediately. The boys at Bose aren't going to sell the milk cow and the entire farm. So if you think you're walking out with $300 QC Ultra headphones in Skullcandy branding, I hate to disappoint you. There is no comparison in the ANC department.That being said, the ANC is adequate, and even favorably compares to my old Sony WF1000XM3's, which is still pretty impressive at this price point, but if you think this is going to topple the latest ANC from Bose or Sony, there's no danger in that.The ANC still is quite good, and the best part is that the sound profile does not significantly change when you cycle between ANC on and Off. Many less expensive ANC buds get bass forward and have a completely different profile when ANC is on, which is a real pain. The Skullcandy's remain consistent between all three modes (transparency, normal, and ANC). When I turn ANC on and off, I don't want the music to change, simply the background noise to disappear. And the Method 360's handle this with aplomb.And that sound profile? 100% Bose. And that is glorious. There is a bass boost function in the app for those bass heads, and a 5 channel EQ to further customize the sound. But to be honest. These things sound great and balanced when flat. The bass is present and has definite punch, but in a precise way. It is not booming, but crisp and exact.The mids are nice and full and the highs are presented with crystal clarity without being tinny.I'm not sure how Bose/Skullcandy are doing it, but these are some of the best sounding single driver bud's I've put in my ears.The $100 to $130 price range is right on target as well.My only complaints here are cosmetic. The earbud case is simply unreasonably large. I get it, I'm not the demographic, but since I'm primarily using these while on a plane, sticking the case in a zipper pocket of my carryon isn't a deal killer. Also, the orientation of the buds in the case are a bit problematic.Quick Tip: Hold the case upside down with the case facing towards you (you're looking at the skull) and pull the ring down. At this point the buds are not only on the correct side of your head, but they are in almost the same orientation as you would stick in your ears. Once you learn this trick, you'll never fumble putting these in and out again.But then again I shouldn't have to publish a tip on how to take the buds in and out of the case.Overall, a great set of headphone at a great price, and while they aren't earth shattering, they definitely brought Bose within the reach of an entirely new demographic, and that, is good for all involved.
