For the style of headphones, that these are, I'm reasonably impressed by the sound quality.If your looking for a comfy pair of headphones i would definitely recommend these to you.



(UPDATE: it's a shame this won't let me change my rating... i'd be putting it down considerably. Only a few months after purchasing these they're shorting out at the plug... even dollar store headphones last longer. Very disappointing)

I love these headphones! Like other clip style earphones, they allow me to hear ambient noise, which is great for when I'm at work and need to hear if my phone rings or someone talks to me. The sound quality is really good, even at higher volumes. They are surprisingly comfortable, and I don't have a problem with them sliding off when I am lying down, as my Sony PSYC clip-ons do.
I like to fall asleep listening to music or audio books, and these headphones remain in place all night, even though I change position often. They are so comfortable that I don't notice them, even when my ear is directly on my pillow. They are lightweight and well designed. I have a pair of Skullcandy full metal jacket earbuds, but I don't hear my alarm clock with those in, although their sound quality is even better.
These are a great combination of real comfort and crystal clear sound quality. Highly recommended!

My 17 year old daughter was attracted to these because of the color and the skull. They look exactly as they appear in the picture, she loves using them. She's a very small person and has little ears; she says they're comfortable and fit her ear better than any others she's had. The sound is clear and she's happy with them. I'll probably buy more.

I got these headphones to replace a similar model, but not the brand. These work so much better than my last ones. The audio quality is surprising for this type of clip on. It has slight noise cancellation and it's much more comfortable than I thought. This is something that I would definitely buy again.

New review: shorting out at the plug- I would now say that this model is not so good.

Old review.
The sound is much richer and fuller than my last pair. The quality on these headphones is so good I had to upgrade my portable radio. You will really be able to hear your music.

I have tried in the ear and ear buds, but the comfort level is just not here for me. Being able to find cool looking headphones which are wearable on the outside of the ears was a key reason I pick these headphones.

As a point of interest, Sony and Skullcandy have branded a pair of these headphones for the PSP.

gave this a four star because my cousin seems pretty happy with them but i haven't tried them. they arrived very quickly which was awesome because i ordered them for christmas

The head phones work great, providing a much broader range of sound and volume than my old ones. They don't look bad, they're alright comfort-wise, and they don't block out surrounding sounds (great sometimes, not so great at others). Great performance for what I paid. Mine ended up losing sound in one side after many, many hours of hard use, but it seems the warranty is taking care of that (just started the process). Knowing what I know now, I'd definitely buy them again. Point: Good product, good price, good warranty.

Pros: Good sound, volume, price and warranty, cool looks, compact (can put 'em in your pocket)
Cons: Other people can hear them easily

First of all, I will start out by saying I am not an earbud headphone user. I usually can't fit them in my ears and find they are difficult to wear. So, I need a set of headphones that will stay on my ears, that aren't bulky, especially for listening to music while working out.

I like the design, and I've always like the Skullcandy brand for headphones. This type is alright for staying on your ears for moderate use. I have pretty small hears, and I'm 21. For some reason these tend to fall off or not stay on properly if you are doing anything more than just walking. The more I try to do, the more I find myself adjusting them.

I have no issues with the sound quality, and they seem like great headphones, if only they would stay on your ears. Perhaps someone with bigger ears might have better luck?

Pros: I got the red ones and they came with extra black covers too. Awesome sound quality for their size, and they look really cool. I loved them at first. They are also relatively inexpensive.

Cons: After wearing them for a couple of hours straight, they hurt my ears, and they're not very comfortable in general. People can hear anything you're listening to unless you keep it on a low volume. Balance is a little weird, but you get used to it. The main reason i gave them 3 stars is the durability: the wires meet in a little plastic thing which they pulled out of, exposing the wiring, which made one of my phones stop working. Also, though they're cool looking, they're made of cheap-seeming plastic and not very high quality materials.

Basically, they're cool looking and great sounding headphones but aren't very comfortable and can break easily.

These are awesome. They are comfy, they stay put on my ears no matter the position. My last four pairs of earbuds were Scullcandy. Scullcandy provides excellent sound, not tinny at all, after I found this brand I switched over permanently. I was pleased when I found out they made earhook headphones cuz I was getting tired of shoving earbuds in my ears. It got uncomfortable, but I can't wear headphones cuz they always fall off when I bend over. These are perfect.
