Great while they have a charge
Viv✓ Verified Purchase•September 29, 2023
These headphones are great! The Bluetooth range is great. I use them with my PC. I had some trouble turning off the hands free communications in the driver settings but after I got it working again (had to re-pair them to the PC) they sounded wonderful.
The noise cancelling is astounding. I was not actually expecting much having never used noise cancelling headphones before. I always thought it was overrated but these have changed my mind. I have a box fan running in my room almost all the time for ambient noise, and the noise cancelling made me realize how loud it was even though the fan is actually pretty quiet on its lowest setting. I couldn't even hear my roommate knocking on the door.
Sound quality is great. A little bassy, but the noise cancellation really helps isolate the audio.
Battery life is not quite as long as I hoped. I find myself needing to charge them more than I hoped I would need to, but that's primarily because the "Battery Low" notification it plays every 5 mins or so after you get to 1-1.5 hrs of life left. I would assume I got like 2 notifications before it turned off, but it will play consistently for over 45 mins, stopping your music to tell you.
On top of that, I cannot just plug them in and keep going with Bluetooth. The headphones will not work while charging which is a first for me. I thought that would be something limited to earbuds since - well you can't wear them while charging.
Overall, great headphones but whoever decided to stop all other audio to play the battery low notification every 5 mins or so when I have over 45 mins left of play time is the one reason I will not give this product a 5 star review and recommend buyers look elsewhere if you have other considerations.

This is the most money I have ever spent on headphones, so I'm not some audiophile.
I needed to do about 40 hours of flying, didn't have big bucks to spend on a Bose. Wanted to have wired or wireless, wanted to have ANC. These fit that criteria. As far as I'm concerned they work brilliantly. I used them wired in flight, listening to my phone's music library without the roar of the jet engines. They fit comfortably over the outside of my ears, 15 hour flight at a time with no problem, no discomfort. They also work well wired or BT when I am on the phone, others can hear my clearly and they block much of the outside noise from the call.
I have had a couple of occasions where they will not connect with my Poco over BT, but a reset fixes it quickly.
These are my first Skullcandy headphones, I see more in my future. A very nice product!

Comfortable and good sound quality

These are great headphones, they have good noise cancellation and amazing sound quality.
I don't love running with them but that is the only downside.

Son is impressed

My son requested this brand of headphones over the Beats brand. He says they are more comfortable and loves the noise cancellation and option to shut it off as well.
Warning: your child will not hear anything you request when they are wearing these.

Unbeatable, for the price.

I see a lot of people nitpicking these sub-$100 ANC headphones. I felt the need to stick up for them. I work in a machine shop and wear my headphones for 10 hours per day (keep that in mind when we discuss comfort- my head is most likely numb to headphones by now). I usually stream music or the audio from a TV to my headset (I don't have high demands for "sound quality", the audio streaming from a documentary on youtube sounds great). I have generally used Skullcandy (they are nominally a local company for me). Most recently I was using the Crusher headset (passive cancellation model) until they met the business end of a forklift tire.
I was going to get the crusher again (loved the beefier quality vs the Hesh). I just couldn't justify the jump in price for the Active Noise Cancellation. These Hesh ANC put the price point equal to the Crusher PNC, so I thought it would be a chance to test out the ANC. For reference, I also fly as a private pilot and I use a $1200 Bose ANC headset. Those Bose are amazing, and are priced accordingly, so I wasn't expecting too much from these Hesh.
Could not be happier. Look, the Crushers are a bit more rugged (these are all plastic, but still durable), but these will hold up just fine and the ANC is impressive FOR THE PRICE! All my coworkers wear PNC headsets and they have all spent the last few days walking around the shop with my headset and putting them on and off to hear the difference and giggling.
Our giant air compressor (imagine the sound of a semi revving full blast) sounds like a CPU fan when you're right next to it! The sound of the swamp coolers is gone. To be clear. It's not like I can't hear anything, everything is just greatly reduced. I can still hear when one of the guys hollers for me, or if a metal bar falls on the floor. They do great with "droning" noises, but not as well with sharp noises. Part of that is the nature of ANC.
Overall, if you are expecting this to put you in a soundless void, you will be disappointed. If you want some decent ANC headphones for a great price, these are the ones! I will say, these beat any PNC headset I've ever used (including my $500 David Clark aviation headset). As far as quality, these aren't the hardiest, but I have no doubt they will serve me daily for a couple years, which has been the average lifespan of all headsets I use.
