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

gifted my mom these for christmas and they work really good

Sometimes Ill be wearing these headphones and then all the sudden Im breaking out in random dances throughout the house. Im so happy that that nobody has been home yet to see my bad dance moves. These actually stay tight on my head though when Im dancing and they arent uncomfortable or tight either. I find it so easy to get lost in the music with the noise canceling feature that these headphones have! Seriously, I get so much more work done, and just feel really relaxed with the noise blocked out. These headphones block out about 75% of the sound. The Noise Canceling option can be turned on or off depending on your preference simply by double pressing the top botton on the headphones. You can also turn on ambient mode by double pressing the top button. Ambient mode allows all the sounds around you to be heard really well. Ambient mode doesnt even sound like you have headphones on. It sounds more like listening to music on a stereo in a room that has external speakers. This mode is great if you want to have a conversation with someone while still wearing your headphones. I love this mode because I dislike having to take my headphones off when I want to hear something or talk to someone. There is a also a volume up and down button on the headphones and a power button. The volume up and down button can be used for going backwards and forwards on tracks. The power button can also be used for answering calls. The included user guide also provides very good details on the button locations and uses as well. The manufacturers website even has an electronic manual if you prefer to read digital as opposed to the included paper manual. Now that you know a little bit about the features and functions, lets talk about the sound quality. I have never owned a quality high end pair of headphones like these. The first time I put them on and starting listening, I couldnt believe my ears! The music was so crisp and clear, and I could actually hear the music coming to life. I heard instruments in songs that I didnt even know where in hidden in songs. The bass on these headphones is crazy powerful too! I had never heard headphones with noticeable bass either, and I never want to go back. In fact, everything about these headphones makes me never want to go back to a less quality pair. I dont ever want to take them off and cant wait to use them on a long road trip when everyone is talking really loud in the car for hours at a time. Lets go ahead and finish up by talking about a few last minute things about these headphones that are pretty important to mention. Despite these headphones medium size, they are super portable. They fold up and twist into a small little bundle and also include a nice carrying bag. The carry bag has a little bit of extra room in it and a small pouch. These headphones also have an included tile in them for locating them. All you need to do is download the tile app to start using the tile. When its time to charge these headphones, you will need to charge them with a type C cable(included). It also has stereo input plug in case you want to use these on a computer and dont want to use the default Bluetooth option. (stereo input cable also included). According to manual located online, these headphones will NOT work with an Xbox or Ps4, but will work with a Nintendo switch. If you decide to take the occasional phone call on these headphones, then you should know that the quality is excellent as well. My overall opinion of these headphones is one of pure amazement! I still cant believe just how breathtaking music can sound on these and I am so in love with the noise canceling function and the ability to zone out insanely loud outer world around us.

Noise cancellation was crappy. The headphone started crackling after a couple of days. Definitely not worth the price.

simple n cool...but not really good at anc

So good

Only problem is when there is a gust of wind it’s loud in the headphones.

Ive been on a quest to find the best possible ANC wireless headsets at a price point accessible for mere mortals. I tried about eight pairs (two from Mpow, two from Anker, Beats Solo, Bose QC35, and some others that I cant even remember). I ended up preferring these to the others, for these reasons: - ANC is great -- very close to as good as the Bose. In fact, they managed to cancel out the particular noise produced w/in my gym -- annoying music and super loud air filters. - excellent fit -- almost every other pair I tried was too big for my head (57 woman, for reference). These fit perfectly -- the headband doesnt slip around and the earpieces enclose both ears well - easy controls -- very easy to use, buttons are intuitive - price -- these were half the price of the Bose QC35s... and they certainly perform better than their price point MInor gripe: they sound great for bass-heavy music like EDM and hip hop, but theyre a little flat on rock.

headphones fits too tight on head/ears. It will eventually cause a headache. Also, the bass sounds muffled.

Thought I’d leave a review after some time with these. I think these are great headphones and I find that I use them quite a bit. The noise cancellation works even without anything playing! The sound quality is good, probably could be better but these are not Bose or Beats. Skull candy is a great brand and have been following them for years because it is great value for the money. The only pet peeve is that they do not automatically turn off, so if you are like me - I’m constantly charging it. Other than that a great buy!

Great Headphones!!!!
