Skullcandy Indy True Wireless In-Ear Earbuds - Black

I purchased these primarily to use for phone calls at work and to listen to music and podcasts when I'm mowing my yard. These are the second pair of wireless bluetooth ear buds that I've tried, and I've been highly pleased. The other pair, off-brand, did not have a good mic, and many people said it was difficult to hear me. With these, I've consistently received positive feedback that everyone could hear me well.I've seen some feedback that the pairing process was difficult. I struggled a little at first too, and the instructions that come with the product are lacking. However, their website has very clear instructions, and after pairing them the first time, I've had no issues since. Now, they automatically pair with my phone as soon as I take them out of the charging case, and I've never had an issue with the individual buds getting out of sync with each other.The fit has been great as well. I went with the standard rubber ear pieces that were on them when they arrived, and they come with a couple other size options as well. They also come with a "removable stability ear gel," but I removed them. I found that they were less secure in my ear with those on. With them off, they have been very secure and have not ever fallen out unexpectedly. They're also very comfortable and do not hurt my ears after extended use.I have listened to music with them, and it sounds find to me. However, I don't have any experience evaluating sound quality and won't pretend to tell you how I think they perform on treble, bass, etc.. Functionally, they work, and that's enough for me.

I decided that it was time for me to get some wireless earbuds, and rather than go with Apple’s popular (and expensive) AirPods, I decided to stick with Skullcandy, whose earbuds I’ve been using for years in place of the basic Apple ones. They didn’t let me down! The sound quality is good (though I’m no audio technician), and they fit me perfectly once I switched to the larger ear gels. I really like the stability gels they include with these, as I’ve always struggled with earbuds of any brand feeling loose fitting, but these fit nice and secure.Battery life hasn’t been an issue for me, and the Bluetooth range is great for my needs. I really enjoy the touch controls built into the earbuds, and they’re pretty easy to get the hang of. It’s nice that I can still pause my music, turn the volume up or down, and skip songs while my phone is in another room (or just in my pocket).Honestly, just the simple fact of not having to deal with the wires that are part of basic earbuds was probably the biggest thing for me. I’d been dealing with them for years and had gotten used to dealing with the hassle, but going wireless is so much nicer. I can just take them out and pop them in their case in a matter of seconds, which makes wrapping up wired earbuds feel like a rather long experience in comparison. I guess this is a bonus of pretty much any pair of wireless earbuds, but it’s still a difference that I think is hard to appreciate until you’ve experienced it.

am a bit of a frugal guy and so I have been dancing around getting a good pair of wireless earbuds for the right (low-mid-ish) price. I tried a few before seeing these at a more than reasonable price of $45 bucks. I was pumped and when I got them in my ears and fired up some music, needless to say I was impressed and glad I had lucked into this purchase. Until the right earbud kept dropping connection/sound.I can't tell you how disappointed I am after experiencing what I would say is really good sound quality, a solid product build, incredible fit/comfort and generally responsive and intuitive control performance. And despite seeing this complaint popping up in a few reviews, I guess I thought I would be one of the lucky ones.I will say that it is incredibly reliable when I'm inside either in my office or at my home, no issues whatsoever. But I do a majority of my listening while biking or out on a walk-about or in the grocery store. So to have the audio cut out CONSISTENTLY with my phone no more than 3 feet away in my pocket is incredibly frustrating.It is most noticeable when I am outside on the street at work, and I think it might have something to do with the environment that I am in, a downtown metropolitan area. Perhaps it's something with the environment/buildings/signal interference, which would suck greatly since I ordered a replacement. Hopefully it's just a faulty pair, I will be updating my review upon further analysis of the replacement pair. Until then, at least one works I guess..UPDATE:So I have tried a second pair and the problems outlined above plague this set also. I have subsequently purchased a pair of SoundPEATS for about $38.00 and have had significantly less issues with what might be considered an inferior brand. I have experienced two instances of signal interruption, one was literally a split second interruption, the other lasted for several seconds but this is no way comparable to the issues I had with the Sesh buds. For the money, the SoundPEATS are both more reliable and also offer a similar sound quality. What small percentage of bass they are lacking in comparison to the Sesh buds is negligible when faced with the incredibly poor performance Sesh delivers. I would recommend only buying Sesh if you are using them in an enclosed area that isn't inundated with other signals as I am positive that is the issue here. The Sesh buds cannot maintain a solid connection when faced with ambient wireless signals of any significance.
