Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2 Wireless Over-Ear Bluetooth Headphones with Multi-Sensory Bass, Active Noise Cancelling, Up to 60 Hours Battery, Microphone for iPhone Android - True Black

I purchased the SkullCandy Crusher ANC-2 after reading many reviews....starting with the 1- & 2-Star reviews. I don't feel the need to read good reviews if I can be content with the bad reviews. Many of the bad and/or negative reviews I read were either about:- Bass overpowering/ inadequate ability to adjust- Noise Cancelling didn't work well enough- Comfort- The 'matte' finish got blemished too easilySo to quickly touch on the BEST points about the SkullCandy Crusher ANC-2.- ***** BLUETOOTH Distance WELL OVER 175+ FEET AWAY. Tested this over a 10-minute period in open, unobstructed line-of-sight........and over 60+ feet within a house, many rooms away.- ***** SOUND QUALITY is Clear, Crisp, and seems to auto-adjust (not sure if it does or not) for the music I am listening to....and I listen to pretty much all of the major genres...i.e. Rock, Rap, Country, and even Electronic Dance Music (EDM)....sounds great with all!- ***** COMFORT fit and holds to the head whether you are working out or working in the yard, the SkullCandy Crusher ANC-2 maintains comfortability!- ***** BATERY LIFE IS PHENOMENAL!!!! After my initial charge, I wore the SkullCandy Crusher ANC-2 for a full day (8-hours of play time) and only used 20% of the battery....so the following day, I wore for about another full day again and used 20%....CRUSHER told me I had 60% battery remaining after 2-days of use.- ***** HANDS-FREE Voice control and SK app makes connecting to music easy once set-up properly!As for what most reviews "complained" about....I didn't see an issue with any of them really!- The intensity of the "Crusher" Bass 'can' be turned up/down, however it should be noted that the dial that rolls, also needs to be PUSHED in to make adjustments to bass output....but this is NOT like the "BASS KNOB" on your car radio....meaning, you can not adjust the bass the near-0...or even to a "4-level", to be honest. The headphones are made to put a bit more bass-bump into your ears. PERFECT for gym time and those audiophiles!- I mentioned my thoughts about comfort above.- The MATTE FINISH IS THE BEST!!!!....(for me!)I have a pretty active lifestyle that includes wearing around the house....doing yard work....driving tractors and backhoes...gardening...etc. In the short time (2-1/2 weeks) I have had the SkullCandy Crusher ANC-2, I have dropped (or otherwise) them numerous times. The matte finish has never scratched, as I fear a "glossy finish" would have, making imperfections more obvious. I just take a disinfectant wipe to clean the headphones.- I feel MANY PEOPLE who "complained" about the ANC "noise cancelling" feature not working are CONFUSED as to what this is exactly! This DOES NOT mean that these headphones completely "soundproof" your ears!!! AND THIS ESPECIALLY doesn't work if you have no sound coming through the headphones at all!!! If you want those headphones, you're better off looking in an aviation-pilot store somewhere. BUT the ANC feature does do it's job in cancelling outside noise while listeninng to tunes at an adequate level.----BTW...I'm not one to ever write reviews for products, but I have been legitimately blown away by the SkullCandy Crusher ANC 2, that I felt a need to counter some of the negative reviews that made me ponder my decision to buy. It wasn't until a good friend of mine told me she loves her SkullCandy products, that I took a chance and purchased.I'm glad I did!TJ

I was scrolling through TikTok when I came across someone raving about the first version of these. So I decided to get this version since it should be just as good as the first but with better features, right?So first off, sound. I like the sound it gives me, better than other over the ear headphones I have. There isn’t that empty space feeling you sometimes get with headphones like these.Bass: I always struggled to get the bass I wanted. It’s always not enough with other products. Even messing with the eq settings never seemed to help. But with these headphones I can control the bass and boost it to my liking. And it isn’t just bass without substance; I’m still getting the music along with the bass, which sometimes becomes an afterthought with some bass boosting products. And the right song can have my head shaking and I love itNoise canceling: I’m sure it’s great. I can’t really ever do complete noise canceling since I’m always listening out for my son in case he needs anything, or the doorbell, and even at night I keep it to hear through mode. But I know it can cancel noise very well, and even hear through cancels a good amount of noiseBattery life: pretty good considering what all it has to do. I had earphones once that felt like it couldn’t last more than an hour but these headphones gives me plenty of battery life without me worrying about it. Plus when you turn it on it tells you how much battery life it has, which makes it even easier for me to relaxApp? Most products like this has apps nowadays, and this is no exception. But what I wasn’t expecting was the ability to be able to pair to multiple devices. Now I don’t have to make my phone forget these headphones just to be able to connect it to something else. And it’s seem less going from one to the otherOverall I know I’m probably forgetting something important but I'm not a tech savvy person, just an average person who wants skull rattling bass without sacrificing the music. I'm super satisfied with these headphones, to the point I don’t even use my other head/earphones, it just wouldn’t sound the same
