SkullcandyDime 2 Wireless Earbuds, Bluetooth Headphones, Noise Isolating Fit, Up to 12 Hours Battery, Microphone for iPhone Android, Easy Carry with Integrated Lanyard - True Black

I bought a set of Dime Black earbuds about a year and a half ago, if not longer, for working landscaping. As I told a coworker, I bought "cheap earplugs that happen to play music." When I got them, I wasn't sure what to expect considering they were all of twenty bucks, which usually means major compromises in the Bluetooth audio world. However, they blew me away when I put them in and played some music. Everything was fairly clear, even if not as good as a fairly expensive pair of Sony Bluetooth headphones (my other, "leisure" pair is a set of Sony MDR-XB950N1 headphones). Now, this review is going to primarily focus on the Dime 2 because that is what I am using now after replacing the initial set of Dimes (after, erm... Misplacing them.)The first thing to know is these are VERY comfortable earbuds. I typically hate wearing earbuds, especially for long periods. They make my ears itchy and start to get uncomfortable for extended periods, but I would wear these for hours at a time (sometimes pushing the extent of the threeish-hour battery life) and they wouldn't bother me anywhere near as much as others. While I still favor my Sony headphones, those were refurbished and cost five times as much as these earbuds. These are genuinely the most comfortable earbuds I have ever worn. To give this a numbered scale, I would put them at overall comfort 8/10, but for earbuds, it would be 10/10.Now, sound quality? I utilize two songs to test any audio - Always In My Head by Coldplay and I Just Wanna Know by NF. The former is great for putting extreme highs and lows at the same time where poorer sound systems will show how cheap they are, and the latter utilizes a lot of mids and bass at the same time that catches where some audio equipment will cheap out on the mids. Both songs were fairly clear. While the bass was okay (in my opinion), it makes up for it with very, very clear mids. They are NOT going to blow you away, but in the realm of this price point? They are phenomenal. 8/10Tile is a very useful tool that I have made use of. Part of why I ended up buying these instead of something higher-end is that I am very, very prone to misplacing things that are small, and... Wireless earbuds are small. I did not want cables connecting them due to them being very annoying (I tried), and I wanted something cheap enough that if it broke, I lost it, or whatever might happen, I could replace them easily. Tile removed one of these issues - If I lose them, it will both show them on a map and play an audio chime at max volume. I'm going to go ahead and say the chime is useless on these - they are -not- that loud. The map is great for finding a general location if you're a college student or out and about a lot. They can show you where to look and have saved me the price of a new pair on more than one occasion.Battery life is probably the weakest point, in my opinion. But I also admit I am spoiled. The case has enough charge for a few recharge sessions, and the earbuds are approximately capable of three-hour bursts of battery life. While it was rarely an issue, I also had to make sure to recharge them almost every night because during a shift of work, I would use almost the entire charge. The Dime 3's SHOULD fix that based upon the specs on Amazon, but I have no idea how they are. I just know the Dime 1 and Dime 2. 6/10Build quality is, for the money, great as well. Don't expect metal hinges or anything at this price. However, they feel solid and I have dropped them on more than one occasion and they don't ever seem phased. I did get one set (I may have bought more than one...) where the magnet that holds it closed was not glued properly, and have had one other that kept glitching when trying to connect to my phone (but that also could have been my phone, but if anyone else has experienced this I would love to know!) until I ran it and my phone dead and charged them both back to full. Don't run them through the washer, though. They will not survive that. 8/10Overall, if you are looking for some inexpensive earbuds that are excellent at blocking sound and great at making (good) sounds, these are the ones to get.

These are amazing! The quality is wonderful. I have several pairs that I use for everything…listening to music while I mow, exercise, do housework. I also use them so I can watch TV without disturbing my husband. The charge lasts a long time, and they recharge quickly.

About 5 years ago Skullcandy were my go to wire ear bud head phones. I took a chance on the Dime blutooth buds. Not bad, but not as loud as others I've tried. They also do not have the battery life of other earbuds that I have tried. Given past experience with the brand and the price point, they are a solid 4 out of 5.

The package arrived promptly and in perfect conditionThe driver was friendly and followed my delivery instructions.I appreciated the quick delivery and the clear communication about the delivery status.

I’m pretty disappointed. I used skullcandy products a lot in college and thought I’d get the same quality now. The sound quality is good, but the battery life is absolute TRASH!!! I literally let them charge all night, took a 5 min phone call and received a “battery low” notification. The instructions are pretty bad as well. Just a few pictures with a sentence next to it. No mention of charge time for the case or headphones. You have to grab the headphones carefully when trying to make any adjustments to the volume or answer a call, they may fall out or out too much pressure on your ear.

So far, so good. Husband had an issue with previous pair so we went with our trusted brand this time. No problem, should've got skullcandy to begin with.

Clear audio, comfortable fit, convenient rechargeable case, and good Bluetooth connection. Not as nice as my Google Pixel Buds, but pretty close, and 1/4 the price. Awesome deal.

works pretty good for the price. long battery life; the sound is a little muffled. i use these for the gym and they do the trick for sure. overall happy purchase.
