Will these earbuds with button control be able to become a perfect choice?
Skullcandy, a leading audio accessories manufacturer, recently launched its new earbuds Skullcandy Spoke in the Indian market. These earbuds have received IPX4 certification for water and dustproof. The company has claimed 14 hours of backup regarding the Skullcandy Spoke battery. Both buds of Skullcandy Spoke have physical buttons, which means they do not have touch support. The Skullcandy Spoke is priced at Rs 7,999, although it is currently being sold for just Rs 2,999 from the company’s website. So let’s know in the review whether Skullcandy Spoke is worth buying or not.
Skullcandy Spoke Review: These buds can only be purchased in a black color variant. The Buds have a battery life of 14 hours with a charging case, while each bud claims four hours of battery backup. There is a press control in the bud that means the button can be used for volume, voice assistant, music control and equalizer. It comes with Buds Noise Isolating Fit, which the company has claimed to have a great audience. Skullcandy is getting a two-year warranty with Spoke. Skullcandy Spoke has Bluetooth v5 and an 8mm driver. The frequency of the buds is up to 20Hz. Buds weigh 57 grams.
Skullcandy Spoke Review: (Design) Talking about the design, the first thing is that it does not have touch support, while almost all the earbuds in the market are coming with touch control. The fitting of the buds in the ears is excellent and the buds do not fall off the ear even on a fast walk. Both buds have individual LED lights that light on during pairing and use. Light burning also means connection. That is, when both buds remain connected, the light burns. There are also three lights in the charging case that give information about the battery level. Both the buds and case are plastic and are sturdy. Build quality is good. Buds do not get scratched due to falling once or twice. So overall we liked the design.
Skullcandy Spoke Review: (Performance) Now as far as performance is concerned, Skullcandy is a big name in the audio market. Company products are also good. Skullcandy’s Spoke earbuds are also good in terms of performance. The audio quality is good. You can listen to each bit of a song and also recognize instruments one by one. That is to say, the audio quality is crystal clear.
The bits are excellent and the bass is also full of audio. Both buds have buttons that can be turned on by pressing the buds. These buttons can be used to control the equalizer, voice assistant, volume, etc. However, this button may not be liked by many people, because the ears are pressed while pressing. Skullcandy Spoke earbuds also have noise cancellation. Talking on the phone was satisfying. Whether gaming or talking on the phone or watching a movie, the performance of Skullcandy’s Spoke earbuds is good everywhere.
Skullcandy Spoke Review: (Battery) The company has claimed 14 hours regarding the battery, but let us tell you that this claim is with the charging case. Both buds have a battery life of up to 3.5 hours, though the one problem is that there were times during the review when one of the buds first ran out of batteries, whereas it should not. A micro USB port has been found in the case for charging. The charging case can be fully charged with a fast charger in about two hours. So overall we can say that if you talk about keeping only the buttoned part separately, then in the range of Rs 3,000, these are the best wireless earbuds with brand value at the moment.
