Skullcandy Hesh ANC Over-Ear Headphones, Active Noise Cancelling, Wireless Charging 22 Hours Battery Life - True Black

I did quit a bit of research into my next pair of headphones - I do several cross-continent air trips a year, and truth be told, lots of people in a confined space like an airplane irritates me - so i strive to block it all out completely. These do not quite fully isolate the wearer - but they do a darn-good job for the price, and the audio is Skullcandy-excellent - I like the deep/rich R&B style bass that most Skullcandy products are known for. My only gripe -it is not covered (yet?) by the Skullcandy phone app, so I cant adjust any parameters yet - but they do sound excellent in default mode. Ambient mode works very well - if someone is coming up to say something, I tap the button twice, and they suddenly relay the voices around me into the speakers. The same works great for phone conversations, you are kept aware of your own volume level, etc.

Great for everyday listening

I appreciate how light and comfortable these are - this is the first thing I noticed when I put them on. I can wear them comfortable while walking around and for a long while if watching a movie or such. They stay charged long enough that I can get by with charging just a few times a week. The branding is subtle. The sound is very good, especially with noise cancelling off. If I want the Audiophile experience Im going to bypass Bluetooth and use my wired headphones, but these have great sound for listening to pop/classic rock/podcasts/movies. Very nice bass, good high end, and dialog is easy to hear. The sound changes dramatically with noise cancelling on. We loose some bass and things are a bit more hollow. That said, the noise cancelling is excellent and is a great option while flying or to exclude noises from vacuum cleaners and such. I typically listen to these with ANC off. Ambient noise mode is great when Im walking outside where its good to be aware of others and traffic but, although light and comfortable, I prefer earbuds while very active. One little peeve - the active noise cancelling is on by default each time you turn these on even if it was off when you turned them off, so I have to turn it off every time. Overall these are an excellent value and highly recommended.

Good headphones. Great sound quality, although not mind blowing. Noise cancellation is great, especially when anything is playing. It’s okay, if nothings playing. Just ok, I wish it was silent though. Two things I just absolutely hate, they don’t turn themselves off when they haven’t been used for a certain time… it’s really annoying. I find myself having to charge these often, even when I do turn them off manually. So that’s inconvenient. And they slip off when I’m working out. Definitely not made for that. 3.9 stars out of five!

I absolutely love Skullcandy merchandise, but these are not it. I got these in December for Christmas so I can use them in nursing school to cancel any noise and they worked for like the first 2 weeks but then I started to notice that my sound was going in and out and then it would randomly shut off and on and then now it will shut off and it won’t come back on for a couple minutes….. My music barely plays through a whole song. It always goes in and out. I would not waste your money on this. I would just save money and buy a more expensive product. I’m not the only one who’s having issues with it my sister also got ones and hers does the same things. I know I’m not the only customer having this problem and I wish they would do something about it. Just very frustrating

They have good anc and are very comfy (big ears)

Wanted to like these. They sound pretty good. But they continually disconnect from my phone. No amount of troubleshooting could fix it. Sending them back

These are comfortable headphones and the noise cancelation it pretty good. However there are some downsides. There is a foreign sounding feminine voice (obviously the actress does not actually speak English, as the pronunciation is very odd) that announces functions and power activation, which cannot be disabled and for which the volume cannot be adjusted. Powuh on Powuh off Sounds more like something you would expect from a cheep Bluetooth speaker from Wish (duh blootoos dEvaice is cOnected ah sUccess-fil-a). So I think that the $40 that I paid is fair, but I definitely would have been disappointed at $120.

The headphones sounded good, fit well and the noise cancelling did a fairly good job. I constantly had connection issues though which inevitably made me give up on using the headphones.

I love headphones that bring music INNNNN my ears and these headphones are just amazing the battery life is awesome and it’s easy to connect
