Skullcandy Dime in-Ear Wireless Earbuds, 12 Hr Battery, Microphone, Works with iPhone Android and Bluetooth Devices - True Black

I've been using these little buds for about 6 months now, and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. The grip in my ears is very good, I always use them when I jog in the mornings, and they never felt like falling off throughout all this time. There is obviously not active noise cancellation, but the noise isolation coming from the earphone tips is quite good: using a little over half of the volume sometimes I cannot hear clearly the people speaking around me and the noises from coming cars are reduced in a quiet morning jog environment. For the price you can't expect groundbreaking sound quality, but these little buds deliver a decent quality for the price, I use them to hear my podcasts in the morning, and they sound good for such a task. Battery can be an inconvenience of small earbuds like these, but in my case I don't use to use them for longer than a few hours, and degradation doesn't mean evident after half a year of use. I would appreciate a battery indicator for the case, it doesn't have any, and I've found myself trying to use the earbuds just to notice they're not at 100% because the case didn't have any battery on them. There were a few times as well when I couldn't use them at all because they had no charge and the case was also empty. All in all I'm happy with their performance, quality and how they've endured through time and I probably would buy them again if I needed an extra pair.

You need to understand the battery life of this product to fully understand it's five star review status. This was my first pair of earbuds, I had no idea how to use them, charge them, how long to expect them to last, etc. I tried to use them after first charge & they died right away! These are basically meant to be plugged in every night essentially, you charge these like you would charge your phone nightly, & when fully charged they only last 2 hours. They DO require daily charging if you want them to work. I have mine permanently plugged in on my nightstand, I use them at night when my husband is sleeping so I can use my phone to watch shows or YouTube, etc. & put them back in their case to charge again when I'm done. If you wanted to take these to work, you would need to charge them every night and then put them in your purse or pocket in the am, once you start using them they will only last for two hours and then they will die. The sound quality is great, they instantly connect to my phone when I remove them from the case, they are great! You must keep the case plugged in at all times & put them back when you're done for reliable use though, hope that helps! UPDATE: Just an added bit of information, I have eventually started using these one at a time and if I need to stop using them and make lunch for my kids or something, I reach up and hold the button on the outside of the earbud & press it for three seconds, then they turn off. When I go back to them I have not wasted half an hour or an hour of unused time and the battery life last a lot longer! If I ever get a low battery warning, then I put it back in the charger and I grab the other one. If you want to make these work and you're flexible, they can be great!

I received the earbuds 2 weeks ago and have used them daily. I really like them... ...but I don't love them. The color is fantastic. I chose the orange. Bright color, easy to find if dropped- which happens. Maybe it's the shape of my ear, but occasionally, they will fall out. This is unfortunate to me when listening to music as I use only one at a time. They can easily be used as a pair or singularly. They will also switch between mono and stereo automatically as necessary. It would be nice if they were a bit louder. The batteries will last about 3 hours of continuous use. Charging is made easier with the fancy color-matched case. The buds magnetically clip into the case, which holds two little charge contacts for each one. Sometimes, they don't make perfect contact, I guess, and don't start charging. Not often, but mildly annoying nonetheless. A small LED indicator resides in each bud to let you know if it's charging. Each bud charges in roughly half an hour. As I only use one at a time: this allows for seamless switching and charging between the two. The case holds around 12 hours worth of recharge and takes roughly 5 hours to charge. The case also has an LED indicator for charging status. Nothing is perfect, but if you want overall decent quality for a great price- the Skullcandy Dime True-wireless are a good pick. Update: It seems the buds ONLY charge when the case is NOT charging. This makes an overnight charging scenario much more difficult, as the case will charge, but the buds won't until the case is unplugged. A bit lame. Edit again: The in-case charging is very hit and miss. Often put in one to find it didn't charge at all because it disconnected from the case. VERY annoying.

If you need a pair of backup headphones to keep in your bag for all the times you forget your main ones, these are a great option. From the tiny size to the built-in keychain loop on the case, you can tell that these were designed with portability in mind, yet they don't really feel like they're missing anything. They have a charging case with strong magnets that hold the buds in really well. They have auto on/off functionality. They have microphones. You can use the buds individually if you want. There's even a single button on each bud; you're supposed to be able to perform all kinds of functions with different combination presses and long presses, but fair warning, anything besides the single click to play/pause is tricky to pull off and involves crushing your ear, so you might want to stick to your phone for controlling the music. The sound quality is good — nothing mind blowing, but definitely above average — and the comfort/fit are pretty par for the course for in-ear buds, with the standard three sizes of tips to choose from. But what really makes these buds stand out isn't their sound or comfort, but the sheer portability of this little package combined with its value, which is where Skullcandy usually shines. For the price you pay, you really get a lot. So these won't be replacing my AirPods anytime soon, nor can I necessarily recommend you use them as your main headphones, but they're a great price and great for traveling.

Three stars because these do 3/5 things I bought them to do. The sound is decent for both media and calls, they do block some noise, and the battery lasts as long as they say (both the buds and case). They do not, however, connect to multiple devices well. I cannot make these connect to my Chromebook for any length of time with any kind of consistency. Since I bought these to teach via Zoom hands free, as much as I bought them as a light/casual alternative to my heavy noise cancelling Sony headset, for casual listening and light work. They do the latter well, but I cannot make them work for video calls, or any media that isn't on my Android phone. When I try to switch between devices, I have a heck of a time getting them to link back to my phone, which is the primary device I use them with. Sound Quality: When I say sound is decent, I mean they are nothing like my good Sony headset, but they are serviceable for audiobooks, podcasts, etc. Music sounds okay too, but not anywhere near as good as my headset. They do not actively cancel sound, they just reduce ambient sound interference because of the fit. Not surprised or disappointed in this, as I was aware of this function when I purchased them. Fit: My ears are rather small, and sometimes they fall out of my smaller left ear, especially if I am wearing them while eating. Largely, however, they stay put, even when I'm doing yard work or working out. I won't wear them leaning over bodies of water anyway, just in case, but I haven't lost them in odd situations or while doing HIIT workouts. On Battery & Turning On/Off Problems Others Have Mentioned: When they are in the case, and the case is plugged in, I do not think they charge with the case. I tend to charge the case and the buds separately, and I have had longer battery times. When I have watched the indicator lights to see if they charge when in the case while the case is plugged in, I notice they blink red alternatively. I suspect they don't charge constantly in this situation. *They do turn on when you removed them from the case 9/10 times. I have to make sure that they are off if I'm going to put them in my pocket without the case, for them to have any battery life when I want to use them. They get five stars because if you do this, they last as advertised, but this isn't something I'm overwhelmingly impressed with. I'm not going out of my way to say "Yay! You made a product that does what you said! Good job!" They work, with care. Cleaning: So far, easy to clean. Just snap the gel bud tips off, wipe them and the actual bud, then pop them back on. No problems cleaning case, and no issues keeping the ports clean. Connections: Pairs with one device easily, but will not work with my chromebook so I can teach via zoom. Many problems switching back to phone after trying to connect the chromebook. Pretty disappointed in this, but I feel that I use them enough to make my $20 purchase worth it. Still looking for a wireless earbud that would serve this purpose and not cost me more than a class session with a client. Improvements: I do really wish they worked with my chromebook for teaching. This is a pretty big bummer, though I knew it was a risk. Being the second major reason for my purchase, I am disappointed in this. I also wish "the lanyard function" had a slightly larger loop so I could get it on a clip more easily, but this is a minor thing. I'm not constantly losing them in a bag, pocket, or duffle. In case, they fit in most of my pockets (even the super small pockets in women's jeans).

I picked up these with some 7mm foam tips and I'm pretty happy with the setup. I hate the silicone tips that these types of things come with from a comfort perspective, and the foam gives a more secure fit with better bass response and sound isolation. Only problem with this setup is I have to take off the foam tips to fit the buds in the case and charge them, so I just take the tips off and jam them in the case next to the buds and it works. Sound quality is great. Mostly flat, though I do like a tiny bit of extra bass with earbuds and these are well within reasonable levels. My only real comparison is some JLab JBuds which I could not stand from a sound (wayyy too much bass and a sound clarity I could only describe as "dirty") and fitment (pain) perspective. I had foam tips with those too but it didn't help the comfort much. I think they were just the wrong shape for my ears. I have little ears with big ear holes. I listen to a lot of Scandinavian melodic death metal and these buds work well for this. Very clear. Paired with an iPhone and I don't notice much compression artifacts unless the source is a low bitrate. "Very high" on Spotify is pretty acceptable for normal listening with these. I don't notice much background hiss with these either. Oh yeah also they don't fall out, but I notice they're not quite as secure with the included silicone tips. The buttons on the earbuds are borderline useless but it's not something I typically use. Overall, I'm not sure of a better way to spend $20 ($27 with the foam tips ordered separately, look for "Earphone Tips New Bee 12pcs Premium Replacement Earbud Tips Blocking Out Ambient Noise Memory Foam Earbuds Inner 4.9mm for in-Ear Headphones with 5mm-7mm Tips" to duplicate my setup).

Caveat emptor! Buyer beware! I purchased 2 pairs of these -one for me and one for my son. All seemed fine until a couple of months later when the ear buds would turn on when in the charging case. Issue appears to be poor connection between the case and earbuds. Results are (1) earbud in case intermittently turns on and off in case, (2) often times case is flat due to constant battery drain and (3) phone calls send audio to earbud in case - which of course I don’t know until I look at my phone and see I’m connected to an earbud that should be turned off and charging. Amazon wasted hours of my time only to say I was outside return period (I was just seeking a solution and customer support, but given Amazon CS didn’t have a clue I expected a refund). Amazon referred me to Skull Candy CS in … Ireland. Skull Candy didn’t and wouldn’t help me either. Now my sons earbuds are also turning on in charging case. I compared the charging case contacts to those of a competitor and immediately noticed the Dime charging case contact pins have no appreciable spring tension. I think the poorly designed case coupled with poorly designed charging pins is a by design recipe for failure. My advice if you want to try these is buy them from a local store that can provide support if yours turn out to be duds like ours. At least then you can deal with a human instead of Amazon’s horrible system for raising a CS ticket. I’ve posted a picture to show the fault in action. The earbud shown on the left is firmly placed in the charging case and yet is not charging and is connected to my phone. Closing the case lid sometimes helps but I find it’s better to keep it open so I can see if either bus is connected or not when it should be off and charging in case. Second picture shows charging case snapped shut. My phone is still connected as shown by the third picture.

First, I want to start this review by saying I've seen at least 3 other reviews right here on AMZ that say these sound as good if not better than air pod pros. That is utter nonsense! These are no where near the sonic quality of air pod pros, not now not ever. What they excel at is value! I primarily bought these to use on my soft phone at work and they are amazing for that for a few reasons. One, they pair super easy. Two you can use them independently so if the left one needs a charge just use the right one, they both have mics. Three, they sound decent enough to peep some youtubez or Spotify while not on the phone or on a Zoom call. There's not much bass but they are very clear sound wise just not a lot of bottom end. I have the medium tips in and they are quite comfy so far. I've only had them for 2 days so I'm sure I can add more to the review later but for the price they're dope. For $2.99 I bought the warranty so no matter what happens I have 3 years worth for $26 bucks. a deal worth paying for.

Excellent product. Great value for money. I have been using it for 6 months now and its still working perfectly fine. Sound quality is very good for the price and product seems very durable and works well regardless of the climate. Buttons are a bit hard to press though so pressing them while using the earphones pushes them deeper in your ear which is a bit uncomfortable.

Its a blast!! 🔥🔥 To be very frank ..... It has skullcandy signature sound which is full in itself..!! Its so very crisp and clear ......no distortion .......and there's plenty bass. I personally loved it. ❤️ It's premium segment earphones in budget category. Kudos to skullcandy!! The build quality is also good , doesn't feel cheap . And they are so tiny......yet amazing sounding. Definitely recommended.

Cihazın batarya performansı çok değil günde 1 sarj etmeniz gerekebilir ama bass ve tiz performansı Apple Airpods Pro ile yarışabilir.Güvenerek alabilirsiniz.

Wow. What a deal. For the price of two earbuds, I got the privilege of enjoying exactly one. The right earbud? Fantastic. Great bass, clear vocals, honestly impressive for something this cheap. The left earbud? Well, it enjoyed a nice nap in the case, lighting up red as if it was charging, then refusing to do absolutely anything when removed. Truly inspiring. I tried everything. Resetting, re-pairing, looking up tutorials and just nothing. It just sits there, mocking me. So unless Skullcandy secretly meant for this to be a mono product, I’m going to go ahead and call it what it is: broken. The real kicker??? I actually like, really love Skullcandy. I’ve bought their stuff before. I’ve even had the same exact problem with their earbuds before, which makes me wonder if the joke’s on me for trusting them again. But hey, at least the working earbud sounds great. Pity I can’t grow a second right ear.

Delivery took exactly a week from US to SG. Was looking for the Dime orange and I happened to find it here at a much lower price! Not fussy with sound quality so the bass is good enough for me. Will find out if its able to last 3.5hrs as stated. Overall, happy with the purchase! ❤️👍
