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

Box for my kid for her birthday present, she loved them

I bought these as a gift for my college student sister who has some sensory issues, headphones are both vital for noise cancellation and the physical fit on her head. She finds them extremely comfortable and will even wear them when not connected to block and muffle the sound of her annoying roommate. She says the sound quality, noise cancellation, and sleek look of these had been the best quality she’s ever owned. Her snapchats she sends while using these sound so crystal clear compared to no headphones. The charging time is accurate and they last a whole day of use for her. I will pick up a pair for myself soon!

The headphones themselves are not bad sound quality wise but the construction of the headphones is absolutely atrocious. Just holding them in my hands I can feel how flimsy the construction is and these will definitely not last. I decided to return them almost instantly, if you want noise-canceling headphones and wont be moving them around at all then maybe these are for you, but if you plan on even putting these in a bag or using them for the gym or travel I would look somewhere else. Beleive the other reviews where people say how they break super easily!

These sound amazing!!!!

I like these headphones overall and for the price point I’d say they’re solid. They look really cool, they have excellent battery life (seriously, I have had them for weeks and don’t remember charging them all that often) and have nice sound quality. The noise cancellation barely does anything and isn’t all that strong but it does dampen some sound helps me feel more immersed with what I’m listening to.

Frustrated with these. It has been useless because I can pair with Samsung TV. I wasted my money

holds battery life well sound quality is really good and with the sale i got these for under $80! love them

Bluetooth disconnects constantly. This happens with multiple different devices, so its definitely the headphones. Im talking every few minutes, cant even listen to an entire punk song. This started happening after I had them for about six weeks, just past the return window. Trash. Utter trash.

The noise cancelling is pretty good! unless people are literally yelling right behind you, you won’t hear them. They’re also really comfortable which i didn’t expect? headphones usually hurt my ears after awhile especially because i wear glasses, but I can wear them for hours with no problem. The only hang up i have is that the headphones are a bit quiet. i think it’s just because of the ANC aspect, but i noticed the sound can come across as just a hair quieter than other headphones i’ve had in the past. but it’s also such a small difference, i don’t think you’ll really notice unless you’re looking.

First, I want to state that Im not an avid audiophile. Im simply an average user that appreciates good sound and quality like anyone else, but dont know all of technical points or ways to measure these things. I have always used headphones under 30 bucks, but have often wondered if the higher priced ones, such as these, are worth all of the hype. In this case, I can say that it is. INITIAL IMPRESSION: I charged these headphones fully before powering them on. The charging time for me was around 2 hours, maybe 3 before they were fully charged. The learning curve is pretty quick, and was able to get these connected to my PC via Bluetooth and proceeded to watch a video in which someone was talking. It sounded like I was in the same room, the sound was crazy good, it was a real, “Wow!” moment for me. BLUETOOTH USAGE: I then went on to watch a TV program via Bluetooth, and turned the noise canceling option off (that had been on the whole time) and was able to hear a fan I have running. I turned it back on, and all the ambient noise was instantly gone. Ive no idea how this works, but its pretty terrific. Whether dialogue or music, these are fantastic. ANC/CALL QUALITY: I then called a family member connected to Bluetooth, and they said that I sounded just like I normally do and had no idea that I was using the ANC function of the headset. I could hear him very well, no problems and no interference or tin-can sounds. COMFORT/ADJUSTABILITY: As far as comfort and adjust-ability goes, Im very pleased. The ear pads are very soft and leave room for my ears inside. The top inner portion of the headphones feature an equally soft pad that helps to prevent the top of my head from getting sore. The band at the top is also quite adjustable, and the ear cups fit snugly without feeling tight. FOR EYEGLASS WEARERS: The only time I felt any slight discomfort was when I was wearing my glasses and could feel the eyeglass arms pressing against my head beneath the headphones. For what its worth, I have the acrylic arms on my eyeglasses, rather than thinner metal bars. PORTS/INCLUDED ACCESSORIES: These headphones do have a port to be able to plug in the included headphone cable (aux), so one isnt obligated to only use these with Bluetooth. Of course, the charging cable is included (no brick) and its an easy to use C type cable. There is a simple drawstring bag that one can use to carry or store the collapsed headphones in when not in use or traveling. CONCLUSION: Play life/battery time for these beats any Ive ever had, and seems to be excellent thus far and living up to its price tag in every way. The sound is spectacular, the build quality and comfort are excellent, the ANC (talking on the phone) ability is unbelievably good, and the noise-canceling function is incredible. These headphones are a definite luxury item for me, and I can now understand why people go so nuts for higher end headphones. These are certainly ones to put at the top of the list if looking for a really great set of pricier but worth it headphones. Thanks for reading.
