Skullcandy Hesh ANC Noise Canceling Bluetooth Wireless Over-Ear Headphones - Black

Bought these for our son to use on a three week band trip through Europe - now I want a set, too. Great battery life for the flights and recharged on the USB in the plane seat. The noise cancelling works great - way better than the earbuds. The over the ear fit was much more comfortable than smaller versions we tried, so could be worn for extended periods without any issue.The case that comes with is perfect for a backpack - they fold up compactly and then drop in the bag, no worries.The audio quality is great - as good or better than much more expensive headphones. Adjustments to the sound balance came through perfectly, which doesn't happen on most we have tried. Frankly, the sound was better on these than sets that cost several hundred dollars.The Skullcandy app is a great addition so you can see battery life and other features, but you can also just use the headphone alerts to know when to recharge. Recharging is quick, and a few minutes plugged in will give another hour of listening if you need to keep using them before you have time for a full recharge.

I have a lot of difficulty being in loud environments or places where there are a lot of noises happening at the same time. When my old $30 headphones broke i decided to get some nicer headphones since i needed new ones anyways. I am so so so glad i did it!! These headphones are wonderful! Heres a short review on what I think is the three most important aspects of these headphones!•Great battery life and super quick charge! I love these because I can charge them during one class period and they are good for the next day if i need to. Charge very fast and stay charged for a fairly long time.•Noise cancellation feature! Obviously they dont block out every noise but I think they work really well! It’s best to listen to music when you’re using the noise cancellation feature because there is a small clicking noise if there is nothing playing. Also, I HIGHLY recommend turning noise cancellation off when your going to lay down or have anything touching the outsides of the headphones. They will make a horrible screeching noise if something touches the little openings on the sides. It took me a while to figure out why they were making that noise and it really bothered me so I figured I would let anyone looking to buy these know.•Comfortable! These are super comfy and the sides have plenty of room for people who like putting stickers on theres! I put a bunch of little shark stickers on mine :)Overall I think these are amazing and would highly recommend them (especially if you can get them on sale price). Great for people with noise sensitivity, sensory difficulties, autistic people, and just anyone who needs a good pair of headphones. Just remember to turn noise cancellation off when laying down!!!

I’ll give a full review of these. So, overall they’re quite comfortable. I’m not used to over ear headphones so they sort of make my ears hurt but I know that will go away once I break them in more. They are still comfortable though. The button controls are easy to use once you learn them, too. the battery life is great! The noise cancelling is very good. of course you can’t expect them to block out every noise but it helps mute things, and if you play music with the noise cancelling on you really can barely hear anything. The sound quality isn’t the best if you are looking for good bass, but I still enjoy the quality and I’m a major sound quality nerd. The charger they come with is very short by the way, but it’s not the most important thing. overall I give these a 10/10, they’re great and I’ll definitely recommend these to anyone who asks.

The headphones are pretty good for the price, but definitely not the best that you can get. If you have money to buy more expensive ones that will be higher quality do it as these have some issues.First of all, the sound quality is pretty solid. The bass is very good and it’s pretty clear. I mostly used earbuds before getting these so it’s a bit of a difference since the sound isn’t going directly into your ears but it’s still clear. They come with a cord so you can use them as wired headphones and a super tiny usb-c charger (just use your own). They charge pretty fast and the battery life lasts surprisingly long. It will give you several warnings of low battery before it dies. The warnings are given to you from this British lady who is basically the narrator for the headphones. She says “power on” and “power off” and that’s fine but I’m kind of annoyed that she announces turning on or off the noise canceling every time. When she does, the song is interrupted for a few seconds. The song doesn’t pause so it just continues in the background as she talks and picks up after the couple seconds. As for the noise canceling, the headphones have a pretty good seal as it is, but you will only need the noise canceling if you’re playing the music at a high volume in a loud area, for example on a plane or in a car. I don’t use the noise cancellation otherwise because you can’t really hear the difference if it’s not super loud in your environment and if you don’t have the music at a high level, you can hear occasional quiet popping noises from the noise cancellation, probably every ten seconds or so. For this reason I wouldn’t recommend using the headphones only for the noise cancellation and not listening to music as well. Also, there is some audio bleeding when you have loud volume in a not very loud place, so keep in mind that people may be able to hear what you’re listening to.As far as the comfort goes I have a small head so it’s a bit hard for me to tell but sometimes the top kind of hurts my head. They’re not very light and since my head is small most of the weight is carried on the top instead of over the ears. I found that wearing a hat helps a lot with this. However the earphones are really soft and comfortable and they fit pretty good on your head.The headphones look pretty good. They’re a bit big but they don’t look silly. The backs of the ear pieces get scuffed up pretty fast (you might be able to see that in the picture) but I found that you can clean it up mostly with a wipe.Overall if you’re working with a small budget they’re worth it and probably better sound quality than most other headphones for the price, but if you’re willing to spend more these are not the headphones for you.
