Skullcandy Icon/Recruit review

 

Good sound for the money, comfortable

Skullcandy Icon ANC

As the name indicates, the Skullcandy Icon ANC has active noise cancelling to block out external sounds and let you focus on your music. They're sweat and water resistant, and are claimed to have up to 60 hours of battery life. Our lab will put this to...

Skullcandy Icon ANC Review

 

The Skullcandy Icon ANC headphones look good and have a long battery life, but are otherwise unimpressive.

Skullcandy iCon Soft review

 

Some people prefer earphones that blend in so much that no one can tell they're even being used, while others like their gadgets to stand out from the crowd. If you fall into the latter crowd, the Skullcandy iCon Soft headphones might be right up your...

The Skullcandy iCon Soft headphones offer a unique style with interchangeable earpieces. They're lightweight and include an inline mic and a call answer button for use with music phones.

The Skullcandy iCon Soft don't fit securely, and bass is anemic. Overall sound is weak.

The Skullcandy iCon Soft headphones offer up style and sound that only a tween or teen could love.

Skull Candy Icon Clip Headphones

 

What girl (or girl-at-heart) wouldn't love to bedazzle this pair with the included stickers? The sound quality rated just above average, and reviews were mixed on their ability to stay put. Unfortunately, most testers found them uncomfortable —...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Not worth $50

 

I know from experience that Skull Candy makes amazing earbuds. If you see this after the -$30 sale is over, you might aswell get some nice ear cups. I can't help but to think that Newegg or Skull Candy left out the image because they know that no one...

I only paid $20 ; It sounds ok

When I purchased this there was no image available. I didn't know that they were the cheap kind that are covered with a thin layer of foam that don't prevent your ears from hurting like the nice padded ones do ; Maybe I have a weird head and ears, but...

Consumer review (toysrus.com)

Just what my son wanted.

 

Bought this as a gift for my 12 year old son. He wanted Skullcandy Headphones to use with his ipod touch. The price of this product is very reasonable compared to higher end Skullcandy products which makes it great for tweens.
