Skull Candy reviews and discussion

The Skullcandy Crusher Evo blew me away — the bass is deep, rich, and you can actually feel it. The personal sound tuning through the Skullcandy app makes a huge difference in clarity and balance. They’re super comfy for long wear and the battery life is honestly impressive. If you’re into immersive sound with that extra bass punch, these are worth every penny. 🎧🔥

I know these headphones aren't the highest quality, but they work great as a budget option for those that need decent heaphones and don't have a ton of money. I mostly love the fact that these headphones fit my head because I have a small head, and these have always fit me much better than the more expensive brand one's. Headphones will hold up for at least a year or two from my experience with this brand.

I absolutely adore this brand. I bought their crusher wireless headphones 4 years ago, and even after everyday use for the past four years, they work perfectly. The charge lasts 40 hours and only takes 3 hours to charge fully. I bought my dad a pair for Father's day and he loves them too.

These are okay ear phones but they hurt my head a little. Upside, people can hear me during calls and vice versa and they don’t loudly ding during talk to text. They’re also noise isolating which I love.

I recently purchased a pair of Skullcandy headphones and have been using them for the past three months. Overall, I am quite pleased with the audio quality. The sound is crisp, clear, and the bass is powerful, making for an enjoyable listening experience whether I’m at the gym, commuting, or just relaxing at home. The headphones are also quite stylish and comfortable to wear. However, I have encountered a significant issue with the durability of these headphones. Despite only having them for a short period, the ear pieces have started to fall apart. This is quite disappointing, especially considering the brand's reputation. I expected better longevity and build quality. While I appreciate the sound quality and design, the durability of the ear pieces leaves much to be desired. I hope Skullcandy addresses this issue in future models, as I believe the headphones have great potential if they can improve on this aspect. I also have to pay for them to get sent back. They should have to send me a free label and box to mail them back. I shouldn’t have to go out of my way for a poorly made product.

You get what you pay for and unfortunately these just add to the landfill. As a kid I loved Skull Candy, but they never lasted that long and typically when you buy cheap, you buy twice. Only good if you quickly need some headphones because you forgot your good pair.

I had a pair of pink earbuds from Skull Candy growing up and I remember that it used to be THE brand for speakers and headphones. I definitely bought into the AirPod game when they came out, and I do love the ones I have, but in retrospect the Skull Candy corded headphones I had lasted a really long time and I don't remember ever having to wrap the cord around or bend it in odd ways to avoid audio skips.

Apple who?! I've been an airpod user for years now (1st gen and pros), but honestly I'm over 'em. The noise canceling has gotten worse over the years- I'm constantly being told to mute myself on zooms in coffee shops or coworking spaces and they're always dying in the middle of my favorite song. I went on my first podcast recently and saw the onboarding email the morning of which read in all capitals: PLEASE NO AIRPODS... finally I knew I wasn't crazy, but also that I had nothing else to use. I ran to my local Walgreens and searched the headphones wall. My criteria? Sub-$20, noise canceling (hi, upstairs neighbors), and not ugly. That was when I met a set of $17.99 string Skull Candy earbuds that plugged into the headphone jack on my computer. It was my first purchase from the brand since like 2009. When I nervously entered the virtual podcast "room" a few hours later and asked how my sound was, they immediately said, "excellent, what are those?" and my coworkers later commented the same when I used them in a zoom call. I haven't shut up about my Skull Candy earbuds since, in fact I'm using them as I type this. Best $17.99 spent ever.

I had a pair of SkullCandy corded headphones that lasted me 5 years before they were ran over in the street (that’s what I get for shoving things into shallow pockets). The sound quality is great and I find that they fit really nicely into smaller ears. Unlike other headphones, they don’t give me earaches after using them or leave sore spots from overuse.

Had a pair of their earbuds back in late 2000s and lasted for at least 5 years. While their sound quality is no the best, it is good for the price. As a bonus, Skull Candy has so many colour options.

my headphones have lasted so many years and still work perfectly!

Not made to last, looks alright.

I have in-ear wired headphones from them - they work well and are comfortable. This is likely an unfair gripe, but when I had to upgrade my phone and lost the headphone jack, these don't work well with the adapter (usb-c to headphone jack). But that is likely more about the adapter than the headphones, likely. And my grousy old lady moment of "c'mon, enough with all the changes requiring us to keep buying more things...!"...

Great option for headphones that doesn't break the bank. I feel like the sound quality is on par with more expensive brands.

Spontaneously purchased a pair of earbuds at the airport on my way home a few years ago and haven’t had to replace them or troubleshoot a single issue. Quality is absolutely phenomenal.

Worth the investment for the skull candy crusher evo x's they have some insane bass that litterally shakes your head. I have used it for the gym for a little over a year and cant go back to regular headphones.

I’ve always loved my skull candy earbuds. They last, are lightweight- and affordable!

In the last month I've bought 2 pairs of skullcandy ear buds only to have them both not work properly. The first pair i caulked up to I got a bad pair. Then the second pair started doing the same. After many email and phone calls , it seems I am stuck with two not really working ear buds. The company won't send me an envelope to return them only because I bought them from a store and not their website. Tried to make me feel bad for doing so. During my time on the site " ask a technician " came up . Do not do this as it is a SCAM and not a 2 dollar charge but 66 dollars came with in an hour and I never talked to anyone. No needless to say after supporting skullcandy for 18 years, I wear my ear buds 8 to 10 hour a day. I only expect 3 months out of a pair but both of these barley made it a week and now don't have any charge time and both the left and right cut out often. After the way this was handled I will never buy another pair and all the new hires that ask about brands and such as we all wear them . I will tell then NEVER BUY SKULLCANDY PRODUCTS.

The sound signature on these headphones tends to emphasize bass, making them appealing to those who enjoy a more bass-forward audio profile. The low-end response is sometimes punchy and works well with hip-hop and electronic music. However, this emphasis on bass can sometimes overshadow the clarity and detail in the mid and high frequencies, resulting in a slightly muddled sound representation.
