Skullcandy Jib Wired Earbuds with 3.5mm Plug, Noise Isolating Fit, Built-In Microphone Call and Track Control, Convenient for Travel - Black

This review is for the Skullcandy Jib Wired Earbuds with 3.5mm Plug, Noise Isolating Fit, Built-In Microphone Call and Track Control, Convenient for Travel - Cobalt Blue .The buds have a nice clear tone. I have not used the blue tooth option, so cannot comment on that. There is what seems like a balance control of sorts one one side. This option is perfect for me because, I have a hearing loss in one ear. With the control the volume can be adjusted so the signal is heard equally on each side. The buds are not being used for listening to stereo, they are being used for watching the TV on the workout machine. If your real picky, and are looking for higher end noise canceling ear buds... move on.These seem like a good pair of ear buds at what was before the Trump tax, a reasonable price.

I've been using these earbuds for years. They're the best ones I've ever used as a side sleeper. The fact that they're wired keeps them from getting lost in the middle of the night, and they're super small so I barely notice they're there. The sound is perfect, and they reduce just enough noise (the AC unit, the air purifier) to help me zone out and get a good nights rest. I don't know what I'll do if I ever can't find these. I have had to replace them a few times over the years, but they're cheap enough that it's not too big of a deal.

These are the onpy earbuds i have found with a rich full sound. Unfortunate that they are becomeling dated and unable to find on Skull Candy's site. I am buying a dozen to keep for my vr headset just incase they discontinue them.

I compared four low-cost (under $20) wired in-ear earbud sets:JBL Endurance Run 2House of Marley Smile JamaicaSkullcandy JibLodos OmnitoneI listened to pieces from four contrasting genres that I enjoy, represented by:Heart "Magic Man" (rock)EBTG "Wrong" (techno)Coltrane & Hartman "My one and only love" (jazz)Ginastera "Estancia Suite: Danza Final - Malambo" (classical orchestral)On each of these pieces, I rated each earbud (1-10) separately for clarity of treble, depth of bass, richness of middle, and overall "fullness" of the sound spectrum. The aggregate results for sound quality were as follows:1. 7.9 Marley2. 7.6 JBL3. 7.4 Ludos4. 6.7 SkullSome individual observations about sound:None of them had much trouble with treble (not surprisingly). Marley & Ludos were the clearest, producing a crystalline "sparkle" across all genres, especially Rock & Jazz, but none of the earbuds disappointed on treble.The biggest differentiator was bass: Marley & JBL produced noticeably deeper bass than the other two, especially the Skullcandy.Although they were not especially good on Classical (scoring better only than Skullcandy), the Marleys were fantastic for Jazz; JBLs were very strong as well. Marleys were best for both Tech and Rock -- although the sound they produced there didn't surprise me as much as it did on Jazz -- with JBLs being second for both.Build quality for both the Marleys and JBLs is both very good -- I'd even call the Marleys "fun," given a few thoughtful and tasteful elements they added -- with the JBLs gaining an edge due to water resistance, fuller mounting construction that allows earlobe to carry most of the weight (= more comfortable) and magnetized buds that will help minimize clutter, risk of getting caught on something; my only build suggestion would be a 90 (not 45) degree plug to minimize exposure to getting hit. Ludos construction was decent, just not quite to the level of the other two. Skullcandy build quality is certainly adequate for a $10 pair of earphones.I am keeping both the Marleys and the JBLs: Marleys for use in home/office, JBLs for exercise/outdoors/travel.

Used to have these when I was a kid man the bass is perfect! Got a pair for my little brother and for my mom their ancient phones still have the jack for earphones so hopefully they enjoy them, they hate charging their earbuds 😂

Very very loud. I can hear them great with my laptop only turned up halfway, and they fit my ears perfectly, I don't have to keep adjusting them. Definitely worth the price and I always love skull 💀 candy

Excellent sound quality, fit well in the ear with different size option, cord length is good. Microphone works well when in use on an android phone.I've used these for years---the same problem always happens: despite careful handling, standard daily usage causes the wires inside the unit to break right where they enter the earbud---sometimes very quickly. Eventually I'm walking around with just one working earbud---sometimes I'll use them this way for months before finally getting sick of it and buying a new pair.The sound quality is predictably excellent, however, so I repurchase. Wish so much things like this didn't end up in the landfill.Not sure there's any product out there that doesn't have this same flaw.

My favorite go to affordable headphones I recommend. It sounds great, doesn’t fall out. It is my favorite color, It’s pretty loud, and last pretty long. I had these for over 8 months. I only had to replace my connector to plugin to my phone. So durable I would say yes.
