I agree. Skullcandy has definitely stepped up it's game. I hear good separation of the instruments with a real clear sound. I can listen to any genre of music with these headphones and be satisfied. The only problem I had was with the ear tip. I couldn't get a good seal in my left ear so bought replacements. Now I get to enjoy the full sound.
To all those people out there, who face trouble pairing your earphones to a new device :- Seems like, you have to press and hold the skull button ( the middle one ) for 7-8 secs to enter the so-called "Pairing Mode". Then try to connect ( It won't be available in the "Bluetooth Devices list" unless you do this :-) ). Repeat this whenever you pair it to a new device, but this doesn't have to be repeated to pair to the same device again! Hope this helps!
i just bought these and I'm impressed with skullcandy. Have used beats earlier, but this one is really impressive. the earbuds are perfect and i don't see any problem with the sound. I always thought skullcandy isn't as good as other brands, but this buy made me change my mind.
Which one of those wireless earphones have the best sound quality? - ink'd - smokin buds 2 - method I really need to know cuz i want to buy something good for my dad for his b'day
I bought a pair of the "Ink'd" version just before Christmas 2016. I used them everyday - all day. They lasted just over a year, when last night the right ear cable stopped working & only the left ear was going. Soooo lucky for me, JB HIFI here in New Zealand had a 30% off sale. $62.00 New Zealand Dollars. Picked up the Skullcandy Method today and the fit is PERFECT. I love how it hugs your neck, unlike the Ink'd version, where it flops around in the wind LOL. Lets see how long they last with me. If they last longer than the Ink'd ones, then i'll be happy.
- Ink'd wireless - Smokin buds 2 wireless - Method sports wireless I'm an audiophile and I work out too. I've never owned a skullcandy product before. Please tell me which one is the best considering sound quality as well. Thank you.
this built to last i've own this almost 1 and half a year now and still functioning completely just as i bought it brand new no problems to it.. thumbs up skullcandy.. beats are just a hype ... powerbeats just jusy last for a few months and ask you for a replacement for a 3x a cost of this beast.
I got them today at Best Buy for $65.00 including taxes. The best earbuds I have bought so far. As you say the are comfortable, the don't fall and the battery is really good. They worth each penny.
It was a great video because, I didn't know which one Wireless Skullycandy I choose at ~60$ price, but this review helped me a lot. Thanks for it from Hungary :)
Iv'e been looking for someone that does good reviews and I have to say, you had me captivated the whole time. Loved the video, keep up the good work, and I really hope skullcandy can sponsor you or something! :D
Just bought today, Using under a Motorcycle helmet as an affordable Bluetooth communication against over priced SENA product. With Phone holder installed above dash board on a 2005 BMW R1150RT the phone is in clear non obtrusive position and works perfect. Ear buds fit well and do not notice whilst riding :-)
I just bought these because of your awesome review and for my workouts. Unfortunately holding on the track back won't allow me to go to a previous track on Spotify. Nonetheless, awesome so far for my first wireless earbuds. Great review again!
I just figured out what I had to do. I held the minus button until I heard a beep, then press and held the minus button again to go to a previous track.
great video as usual.... you mentioned the other models don't skip back, the ink'd does (which i own can't attest for the others) you just have to press and hold again as soon as you hear the beep
I noticed in your Ink'd v. Smokin' Buds video you mentioned that the "back" button only let you go to the beginning of the current track, and that they fixed that with these. I'm curious to what phone and/or media apps you're using. The back button has always taken me back to the previous track, except in the Google Play app, but that's an app issue.
Just got these and am happy so far. The only thing that is annoying is there is no way to tell if they are charging when hooked to the charging cable. Why no indicator light of any kind?
Another good review, mate. Looking forward to buying these alongside my Grind Wireless which I also love. One question, is there any way I can skip forward or backwards 5-10 seconds of a song from the remote? I miss this feature from my Grind Wired.
hi Gamesky I just wanted to ask i currently have the ink'd wireless is it worth the upgrade to the Method wireless ? cause It looks better than the wireless ! loved the video
I absolutely love these earbuds, they sound and feel great. One sad problem though: when I turn them on, they say "connected" but they actually are not connected. I'll play my music and nothing happens. It actually takes several moments after you hear "connected" to actually connect. This is a very big inconvenience. Waiting for my crusher wireless to arrive then I'm going to send these in for replacement.
Gamesky I know but I always like to have a pair of earbuds and a pair of over ear headphones so I still want to get them fixed. I just want to wait till the crushers arrive so I'm not stuck with no headphones for a few weeks
Gamesky only thing is I've never owned two Bluetooth headphones at the same time... this may be a dumb question but you can have two different Bluetooth headphones connected to one device right? I won't have to pair and unpaid each time I switch between headphones?
yeah, that's fine. when you turn whichever headphone you want to listen to it will automatically connect. you can't have them both turned on at the same time though
@gamesky they really should sponsor you man but if not at least your doing something you like i'd like to be a youtuber but I'm young and don't know where to start or have the equipment but great videos they help me save money and are worth watching 👍
thanks, I actually prefer the Method wireless over the Smokin' Buds 2 for metal because they have better mids and highs which gives the riffs more life....and the bass is still there as well
hi GameSky, how many hours should i plug them in to charge? Where can i find the battery specs like mAH, input and output voltages? can I use a Samsung fast charging adapter to charge this?
hello, ever heard about JBL Reflect Fit ? i can't find any single review on them yet but just asking if they good to be compared to lets say Sennheiser HD1 or even the skullcandy. any idea?
Hi,which has the best sound quality between uproar wireless, smokin' buds 2 wireless and the method wireless in case of soothing music, pleeeeeeaaaaasee reply, please please please.
I kinda like them (contemplating purchase), but I just read on Amazon Germany that even when the charging socket is closed off, sweat might seep in, causing a short cut and they go dead. Anybody any experience with that?
gamesky Today I have decided to buy these. Give me a honest opinion on to go for Inkd or Method? is that little extra I am paying for method worth? plz do reply. in a confusion
I just bought these today and immediately after taking them out of the box, my first thoughts was, no way im gonna wear these with those rainbow girly looking rubber earbuds. I swap them with some black earbuds i had from some old wired headset I had lying around. That fixed my only problem with them.
Hey I was wondering how the mic is on Method wireless. I'm getting an iphone7/7 plus, and really considering this as my Bluetooth headphone of choice...(rest in peace headphone jack) I know it's probably nothing special, but if the sound quality is anything better than the Apple headphones mic, I'm buying it for sure.
I've actually enjoyed using these when working out or watching movies at home, but every few weeks, they would stop working or one earbud would stop working.
I have a question to anyone who own a pair of the methods. Is anyone having an issue with these? Ever so often they start to break up mostly when I'm outside walking. Should I return them for another pair?
Hi, just one question, I just bought a pair of them, but, I don't have idea of how they're supposed to charge, is it fast charge or normal charge? How do I know when they are fully charged?
mate i liked my smokin buds but unfortunately lost them. the only time when i had a problem with then coming off is while benchpressing. do these have the same problem? how would you compare sound quality between the 2 because smokin buds was near to perfect.
these will not fall off. they have more clamp on your neck so the band doesn't move. the sound in these are crisper than the Smokin' Buds but not as much bass....more balanced and great to listen to
in my opinion if u want to save money just get ink'd wireless the only thing methods have is the lock and sweat resistance if u don't sweat as bad as others ink'd is the way to go 👍
Corey Hughes Inked wireless sound really good, just as good as wired pair, maybe better. Side note I like the way Inked ear buds fit compared to Smoking Buds do. I know a little off subject.
It is something contradictory do not you think? Because I was looking for the characteristics and according to what I read, Smokin Buds "have better Bass" : S
Are they really durable? Sometimes I accidentally fall asleep with headphones and that's how I broke my last ones😞 I wouldn't want to break $60 ear buds...
Love love love these... do NOT do “forget device” on apple frick’n glitch stops you from repairing them... left them out in the rain and after a day of rice bag still worked... I bought another because I thought they were fried... stupid apple phone won’t find either now though...
Skullcandy is really underrated, most of the people I know think beats is the best which drives me insane
they have been brainwashed
ryan stovall skullcandy is not buit as durable as beats.
But beats don't sound good for the price point, people are just buying them because they're beats
Gamesky I have tored up skullcandy ink'd and now have ordered smokin buds 2 wireless to see the difference. powerbeats 3 wireless is in my dream list
Shamsul Arifeen I actually think Skullcandy is way better built than beats and Skullcandy gives you a lifetime warranty on their products
So many Skullcandy reviews. They should sponsor you.
Jaden Pabloff that would be nice.....I can't even get them to send me headphones for review
Gamesky , damn that sucks
Jaden Pabloff especially considering how many I've reviewed and how much I recommend them to people
Gamesky yo game nice review I'm getting these. Damn Skullcandy should give you a deal.
security base agreed, i need to count how many reviews I have done of their products. thanks for checking out the review
This was SUPER helpful man, thx for an honest review. I can’t wait for mine to come in
I agree. Skullcandy has definitely stepped up it's game. I hear good separation of the instruments with a real clear sound. I can listen to any genre of music with these headphones and be satisfied. The only problem I had was with the ear tip. I couldn't get a good seal in my left ear so bought replacements. Now I get to enjoy the full sound.

Lokesh S N thanks for posting this for the people having issues
Thank you so much
Thank you so much, I was wondering why mine weren't pairing
Lokesh S N wowwwww..thank u that's all I needed..u just saved me $$$$
Thankyou so much!
i just bought these and I'm impressed with skullcandy. Have used beats earlier, but this one is really impressive. the earbuds are perfect and i don't see any problem with the sound. I always thought skullcandy isn't as good as other brands, but this buy made me change my mind.
they have improved alot over the years and their new lineup is quite impressive. glad you like them
Which one of those wireless earphones have the best sound quality?
- ink'd
- smokin buds 2
- method
I really need to know cuz i want to buy something good for my dad for his b'day
Walusz Sekoniusz I like the Smokin Buds the best but the Inkd wireless has better bass
Gamesky what about the methods
Method, best sound, best confort, best battery,
Smokin buds
Wonderful review . i will suggest you smokin buds 2 . I loved this product more than anything .
thanks skullcandy for giving a priceless thing.

- Ink'd wireless
- Smokin buds 2 wireless
- Method sports wireless
I'm an audiophile and I work out too. I've never owned a skullcandy product before. Please tell me which one is the best considering sound quality as well. Thank you.
Nikhil Sabu Method IMHO. I have SB2 and Method wired and wireless versions. In both cases, Method.
Are the buttons a click, or are they touch?
+Turboxide they click
Does anybody know if these beep at low battery or at 50% battery? I have some off brand wireless earbuds and they drive me insane at 50% battery
Watching this in same earphone's. And it fits inside the collar fine. Build quality is great. Sound is clearly fine
Just got the inked was a little but dissapointed but hey it was only 34$.. might have to get these for basketball
this built to last i've own this almost 1 and half a year now and still functioning completely just as i bought it brand new no problems to it.. thumbs up skullcandy.. beats are just a hype ... powerbeats just jusy last for a few months and ask you for a replacement for a 3x a cost of this beast.

Javier Cerritos completely agree
Javier Cerritos lol that's cool I just ordered them off Best Buy but at 10 dollars off 😄
It was a great video because, I didn't know which one Wireless Skullycandy I choose at ~60$ price, but this review helped me a lot. Thanks for it from Hungary :)
I bought the Smokin Buds 2 for your previous review but I recently lost it. I'm going to try this Method model now. Thanks!
Iv'e been looking for someone that does good reviews and I have to say, you had me captivated the whole time. Loved the video, keep up the good work, and I really hope skullcandy can sponsor you or something! :D

Great review again!
I just figured out what I had to do. I held the minus button until I heard a beep, then press and held the minus button again to go to a previous track.
so glad you like them. i was really impressed by these and they will definitely hold up during workouts
great video as usual.... you mentioned the other models don't skip back, the ink'd does (which i own can't attest for the others) you just have to press and hold again as soon as you hear the beep
weird...I never got mine to work right. It just kept skipping back to the song I was on
Gamesky then you have to work on your timing young grasshopper
KobaCabana i need to go to bluetooth controls 101
Gamesky 😂😂
I noticed in your Ink'd v. Smokin' Buds video you mentioned that the "back" button only let you go to the beginning of the current track, and that they fixed that with these. I'm curious to what phone and/or media apps you're using. The back button has always taken me back to the previous track, except in the Google Play app, but that's an app issue.
Just got these and am happy so far. The only thing that is annoying is there is no way to tell if they are charging when hooked to the charging cable. Why no indicator light of any kind?
how are these when your laying down? say doing bench press at the gym? will they stay on? awesome review by the way
BraveEngage They perform great.
BraveEngage they are similar to Inked wireless. When getting up from bench presses sort of a pain they move around as you get up.
They didn't move from getting up on bench
Another good review, mate. Looking forward to buying these alongside my Grind Wireless which I also love. One question, is there any way I can skip forward or backwards 5-10 seconds of a song from the remote? I miss this feature from my Grind Wired.
thanks, I appreciate that. unfortunately there is no way to skip back like that
hi Gamesky I just wanted to ask i currently have the ink'd wireless is it worth the upgrade to the Method wireless ? cause It looks better than the wireless ! loved the video
Are the volume controls noticeably clicky because I tried the inkd wireless and I didn't like the loud clickyness of those a while back
I absolutely love these earbuds, they sound and feel great. One sad problem though: when I turn them on, they say "connected" but they actually are not connected. I'll play my music and nothing happens. It actually takes several moments after you hear "connected" to actually connect. This is a very big inconvenience. Waiting for my crusher wireless to arrive then I'm going to send these in for replacement.
once you get the Crusher Wireless you won't even care anymore
Gamesky I know but I always like to have a pair of earbuds and a pair of over ear headphones so I still want to get them fixed. I just want to wait till the crushers arrive so I'm not stuck with no headphones for a few weeks
Tyrannical Tyrantrum I am the same way.....I have to have one of each as well
Gamesky only thing is I've never owned two Bluetooth headphones at the same time... this may be a dumb question but you can have two different Bluetooth headphones connected to one device right? I won't have to pair and unpaid each time I switch between headphones?
yeah, that's fine. when you turn whichever headphone you want to listen to it will automatically connect. you can't have them both turned on at the same time though
Cool revenge bro ! Just ordered them online They should arrive this Thursday
Want to know is there any button which is capable to dial on last dialed number?
@gamesky they really should sponsor you man but if not at least your doing something you like i'd like to be a youtuber but I'm young and don't know where to start or have the equipment but great videos they help me save money and are worth watching 👍
Corey Hughes thanks for checking out all the videos......it's definitely not easy
Great Review(s). I am curious on your thoughts between the Method & Smoking Buds 2 wireless. I listen mostly to metal/rock. Thanks.
thanks, I actually prefer the Method wireless over the Smokin' Buds 2 for metal because they have better mids and highs which gives the riffs more life....and the bass is still there as well
Does it support alexa/Google assistant?
I cannot find any information online regarding if the headset is fully charged. Can you help me
Pat Praetorius the light will turn blue when fully charged
hi GameSky, how many hours should i plug them in to charge? Where can i find the battery specs like mAH, input and output voltages? can I use a Samsung fast charging adapter to charge this?
how is the noise isolation on these compared to the smokin buds 2 and the ink'd wireless which has the best noise isolation
Jonathan Moore these are almost identical to the ink'd when it comes to isolation
hello, ever heard about JBL Reflect Fit ? i can't find any single review on them yet but just asking if they good to be compared to lets say Sennheiser HD1 or even the skullcandy. any idea?
Skullcandy method wireless or plantronics backbeat 105 considering bass and sound balance?
would you recommend these over the smokin buds 2?
+999Cxrlxs yes, I really liked the sound and fit from these
Hi,which has the best sound quality between uproar wireless, smokin' buds 2 wireless and the method wireless in case of soothing music, pleeeeeeaaaaasee reply, please please please.
I kinda like them (contemplating purchase), but I just read on Amazon Germany that even when the charging socket is closed off, sweat might seep in, causing a short cut and they go dead. Anybody any experience with that?
Wrt to volume levels which is better Methods or Inked wireless???
are these rain proof cut I live in the uk
Liam lewis jones, they are water/sweat proof, but I don’t advise you to put it in water much
gamesky Today I have decided to buy these.
Give me a honest opinion on to go for Inkd or Method? is that little extra I am paying for method worth?
plz do reply. in a confusion
If my Smokin Bud wireless craps out, I'll get these.
I just bought these today and immediately after taking them out of the box, my first thoughts was, no way im gonna wear these with those rainbow girly looking rubber earbuds. I swap them with some black earbuds i had from some old wired headset I had lying around. That fixed my only problem with them.
cc527 haha...I wasn't a fan of the rainbow tips either
I currently own the ink'd wireless, are these better in terms of sound quality, volume and bass?. Thanks
Hey I was wondering how the mic is on Method wireless. I'm getting an iphone7/7 plus, and really considering this as my Bluetooth headphone of choice...(rest in peace headphone jack) I know it's probably nothing special, but if the sound quality is anything better than the Apple headphones mic, I'm buying it for sure.
i think that it's ok, like you said...it's nothing special but will do the job
Is this skullcandy once we unpair it won't be acceptable second time in phones?
I've actually enjoyed using these when working out or watching movies at home, but every few weeks, they would stop working or one earbud would stop working.
Are these good for sitting long hours at desk at work ? and which are more comfy for long hours these or ink'd 2 ?
Thanks for this review. Super informative and I love the images you used to show off the earbuds 😃👍🏼
thanks so much...glad it helped and I appreciate you checking out the video
Imma buy these thanks to this review.
Skullcandy for life
+Evan Wilson agreed
Is it possible to use the earphones without the neck band?
And is this skullcandy it won't connect new other mobiles even if we off everything unpair so also not showing in blootooth option
These are my go to headphones for the gym
method vs ink’d?? what is the best??
I have a question to anyone who own a pair of the methods. Is anyone having an issue with these? Ever so often they start to break up mostly when I'm outside walking. Should I return them for another pair?
Gamesky Can you do The Bose QC35 VS the Skullcandy Crushers Wireless
Please elaborate buttons functions!
Skullcandy method less not powering on. Could you please help me ?
which one is better smokin buds 2 ,ink'd or method
Is there a way to deal with the flashing blue light?
can you please do a video on the crusher two wireless again do a test with them playing out loude
Do a review of Skullcandy xtfree since you have done most of their BT range.! Kudos.! :)
Which is better for workout,walking,and playing games?? method or smokin buds??
Method
What is the sound output wen compared to smokin buds 2 wireless
Can you please tell me how to know the level of charge?
how do these perform when compared to apple AirPods?
Hi, just one question, I just bought a pair of them, but, I don't have idea of how they're supposed to charge, is it fast charge or normal charge? How do I know when they are fully charged?
Normal charge and I believe the light is blue when fully charged
mate i liked my smokin buds but unfortunately lost them. the only time when i had a problem with then coming off is while benchpressing. do these have the same problem? how would you compare sound quality between the 2 because smokin buds was near to perfect.
these will not fall off. they have more clamp on your neck so the band doesn't move. the sound in these are crisper than the Smokin' Buds but not as much bass....more balanced and great to listen to
Dose it work comfortably with hoodies
just got these 2 days ago, already won't connect with my phone. The power light is just blinking red and blue. Any suggestions?
+Bryan Campbell weird, if it's blinking red and blue it is in pairing mode
Is it still good if i'd use just in school or walking around and doing normal stuff... (not using it for sport)
Yes
in my opinion if u want to save money just get ink'd wireless the only thing methods have is the lock and sweat resistance if u don't sweat as bad as others ink'd is the way to go 👍
Corey Hughes I agree with that
Corey Hughes Inked wireless sound really good, just as good as wired pair, maybe better. Side note I like the way Inked ear buds fit compared to Smoking Buds do. I know a little off subject.
It's cool
IMHO Not the same sound at all. Method a way better
And the earbud style is different. I think methods is more comfortable.
I have it it's amazing
Dude, which one of these do you think is better in terms of bass?
- Smokin Buds 2 Wireless
- Ink'd Wireless Earbud
- Sport Method Wireless
Carlos José Garcia Pazos Mosh the Ink'd had the better bads
It is something contradictory do not you think? Because I was looking for the characteristics and according to what I read, Smokin Buds "have better Bass" : S
Carlos José Garcia Pazos Mosh to me the Inkd had more punch
I appreciate your time and your answers .. the truth is that I was very confused, now you have a faithful subscriber, greetings from Guatemala!!
Do you recommend these over the skullcandy Ink'd wireless??
NebbyK they honestly almost sound exactly the same. the Methods are geared more towards working out and have a better fit
Are they really durable? Sometimes I accidentally fall asleep with headphones and that's how I broke my last ones😞 I wouldn't want to break $60 ear buds...
meh eh these are very durable, especially considering they were made for working out and being active
Love love love these... do NOT do “forget device” on apple frick’n glitch stops you from repairing them... left them out in the rain and after a day of rice bag still worked... I bought another because I thought they were fried... stupid apple phone won’t find either now though...
Do wish it worked on my pc though maybe it will but I haven’t looked to much I to it
Skull candy methode vs Anker sound buds tag-in ear??????
Anyone???????
What is the frequency
Are these better than ink'd wireless?
btw nice review
+Shaman King thanks, I think they sound very similar but these fit better and don't move at all around the neck so I prefer these
Gamesky one more question
are the wireless method bettee than the wired ones, i mean is the sound quality better on wireless ones or.is it the same?
I absolutely love them
Bardock The Legendary Warrior they are amazing for the money
Gamesky Not even that. they sound like $150 earbuds IMO.
Does, it works with iPhone 6?
While charging, is there any indication or anything to notify you when the earphones is fully charged?
Luis Adrian the light will turn blue
Cheers! :D
why my skull candy didnt work its already blue and i press long but its not working
which is better uproar wireless or method wireless on the basis of sound quality?
Tanu in my opinion I liked the Method Wireless slightly better
I love Method and Uproar. In S.Q, I like Uproar by a little. Bass is really good
Hello sir Is it support 3d audio or Dolby Atmos
Skull wireless method vs ink'd . which one has the better sound quality?
Gursimran Sandhu the Method has slightly better sound
Gamesky Thnx
I've got a pair but idk when it needs charging.
probably when it dies. Thats a good indicator that it is dead
Help my earpods dont work they cant turn on
Should of shown a unboxing part too and more of yours instead of the skullcandy's video
i never really do unboxings on my channel. i do show what comes with the headphones so I don't see the point of me pulling them out of the box
should of done it tho
What if it doesn't charge
Do they fit well if you are wearing a shirt?
I ended up ordering these instead of the Skullcandy Smokin' Buds 2 Wireless :)
How to reset?
25 black Friday not bad
does the method skullkandy have an option for answering calls. Is the Jabra bluetooth halo smart better. Need help !
yes, you can answer calls but the Jabra has a better mic for making calls
Thanks a lot :)
