Skullcandy Hesh ANC Noise Canceling Wireless Headphones (Chill Grey)

The Skullcandy Hesh ANC are decent for commute and travel. Even with their ANC on, they struggle to cut down bass-range noise like bus or plane engines. They're also bulky, which can make them a bit more difficult to easily take with you on-the-go.

  Low battery life, Bass is somewhat weak

Skullcandy’s Hesh ANC are compact, wireless over-ears for everyday use that are tuned for bass and designed to suppress or amplify ambient noise as required. In addition to Bluetooth 5.0, optional tracking via the Tile app is supported so that these headphones can be found if they get lost.

Skullcandy feels like it’s been around forever. As one of the original accessory makers in the modern smartphone era, the company has years of proven products. That includes great offerings with wireless headphones.

Utah's Skullcandy has come up with a set of affordable Bluetooth wireless headphones with active noise cancellation, a monster of a battery, and a built-in "where's my headphones" feature that makes them very hard to lose. Here's our review.

While the Skullcandy Hesh ANC are far from perfect, for a pair of affordable headphones, they have really effective noise cancelling which almost completely cuts out distracting noise. The sound quality is flawed but it'll be fine for casual listening, and there's plenty of battery life too.

  Impressive noise-cancelling, Comfortable fit, Tile technology built-in

  The sound is very bass-heavy, Completely plastic design, No app or manual EQ settings

Of course, headphones don’t need to be exciting. They can just be good value, and the Skullcandy Hesh ANC headphones are certainly not bad. Three years on, they are basically an updated design of something older, and noise cancelling headphones are far more competitive now than before, so the...

  Tight, but comfortable earpads, Design is simple enough and won't draw attention, Decent amount of bass, Includes a transparency mode, Support for Tile app

  In-headphones voice is always much louder than everything else, Skullcandy app is abysmally bad, Not much has changed from the Venue

The wireless Skullcandy Hesh ANC headphones deliver powerful audio performance in a comfortable design, with decent active noise cancellation for the price.

  Bass-forward, sculpted sound signature, Comfortable fit, Competent noise cancellation

  No ANC or EQ controls, Noise cancellation affects audio to a degree

Highly recommend. Use these for work and for play. Easy, simple controls, great sound quality, all around great. My only complaint (and tbh it's not a big one) is that if I'm using noise canceling bc I'm in a loud area and I have to take a call, it's hard for the other person to hear me due to...

If you have an apple computer, you can use the same charger to charge these headphones- very convenient! Love the noise cancellation, love how they look on, love how they feel. Pairing these headphones with different devices is really easy and the sound quality is great (not amazing, but for the...

very nice headphones! but they are so loud that everyone next to you can hear your musik. i dont like that, but nice bass and nice noise canceling. bluetooth works very good! fast Connection, i like them very much!!

The ability to turn the noise canceling on & off is the greatest thing. But the ability to quick charge and last all day is fantastic and t h ey are very comfortable.

After developing some form of tinnitus and becoming more sensitive to noises I went ahead and bought these as my first pair of NCH.I have been pleasantly surprised at how much of a difference these make.

The good: The sound quality is good with nice, heavy bass. The not so good: Sold as over-the-ear, but ear cups are small, so, for me, they function more like on-the-ear. The noise cancelling works well, but there is a very noticable low volume hiss that comes form the left speaker when it's engaged.

I have social anxiety so I wanted something with noise canceling but that I could still hear if someone is talking to me. These headphones did not disappoint to give the noise canceling and have great sound when I turn on the music. Worth the money for sure.

Great sound quality. Sound cancellation is good and I love that they have an ambient mode you can toggle on and off so i can hear if someone talks to me while listening to music. I just wish the ear pieces were a little bigger but that’s just a personal preference

I really like the design of the headphones, i would say it was a great purchase. I was suprised by the sound quality and the noise cancelling, best headphones in this prize range

Bought these for my wife as a backup to her Apple AirPods while they’re charging. She really likes the comfort, fit and sound. Skull Candy headphones never disappoint!
