Skullcandy Method 360 ANC Wireless Earbuds, Sound by Bose, Bluetooth Headphones, Premium Noise Cancelling, Up to 40 Hrs Battery, Sweat and Water Resistant, Microphone for iPhone Android - True Black

Let me tell you my experiment with these earbuds. I ordered the earbuds. Got them in the mail the next couple of days. I read all the directions on how to get it started. And I noticed that my right earbud was not wanting to charge correctly. The left earbud would charge to 100%.. right earbud only wanted to charge anywhere from 94% to 98% and not 100%.. I charged the complete case with the earbuds in it. Still the right earbud was at 94% and the left earbud was 100%. I decided to wear them for a couple of hours. Well I noticed within 30 minutes my right earbud went from 94 to 60 % when my left ear bud was 92%. I quite didn't understand what was going on to make the right earbud do what it did. So I got in contact with Skullcandy and they told me that I needed to reset and uninstall the app. So I did everything that they said to do. And still nothing happened. So I returned them. And got to replacement. And let me tell you I've had these for a couple of days and they work perfectly fine. They charge correctly. The earbuds are fine The bass in the sound is great. I've had other earbuds in the past that were noise canceling. But none of them were the supreme notch on these earbuds. I've never Bose earbuds before. But knowing that Bose is the top of the line for their radios that they had back in the days and for their headphones. I would say these are the great . Like when I put these in my ears I can hear what they do to my ears as a noise canceling sucks in the outside and closes it. Some earbuds will say that they have noise canceling but they could be 30% noise canceling 50%. But with these I believe that these are 100% noise canceling to my ears. They are great around the house, being outdoors, and going on vacation. The one thing that I wish that they had done was where I could say hey Alexa and have Alexa interact with me through the earbuds. Now for the color I got back. I wish they had a dark blue or a dark gray. I wish they had a flame one that was fire on the black one with the flame symbols on it. Something about flames and black stand out that I like. For the value of the money on these earbuds. Skullcandy has other earbuds that you can get that are lower in price than what these are. I would have to say for the value of the money of these I would say they do what they do for the price.

I have been using various Skullcandy headphones since the early 2000s and these are by far my favorite. The sound quality it very well balanced right out of the box, but is tunable with the app. The swappable ear pieces give you a very custom fit; after close to an hour I barely noticed they were there. The ANC is not perfect; with no audio playing sound is muffled, but not "gone", but with music background noise is mostly nonexistent. All of these are great, but for me, the real standout is Stay-Aware Mode. It's very much an under rated function. The best I can tell, it uses the microphones from the ANC as a pass through allowing you to hear the same as if you weren't wearing headphones at all (until you speak that is, then you hear yourself like you have ear plugs in). Not having to take out an ear bud every time someone wants to talk to you (or if you have kids or pets you need to be able to hear) is amazing!

I’ve been pretty loyal to this brand for years. The other brands I do have are JBL, Bose and Apple/Beats, so some of my comparisons stem from those products, but I’ve always used SkullyCandy more than my higher end brands. The general idea with ALL of their products I have had over the years is that they’re above average quality for their price. They’re not cheap, they’re not expensive, they are a perfect in between. They eventually run their course within a year or two, but their warranty is more supportive than higher end brands. They actually REPLACE them free of charge(this could have changed, i’m not asking for a replacement for these lol) With all that being said, these are the worst I have had from this brand. Like a lot of other reviews I have read, I agree that they do have connection issues. The primary one I notice every time I use them, they randomly cut out for a few milliseconds, something I have never experienced with this brand. Another common complaint I see is that the right ear bud eventually just stops working, literally like every skull candy I have had, but sooner. Lastly don’t even bother trying to have a decent conversation with these, the connection issues obviously will affect the conversation. PROS, the ANC isn’t perfect but it’s noticeable; Do not expect Bose Level noise cancellation. The fit of the buds are good and they come with different sizes. The battery is great, and on par with other companies. TLDR. If you can deal with the small issues, these are still a decent buy. Just know you will replace these within a year, within two if you’re lucky. Again, I am speaking as someone who knows what SkullCandy has been capable of. In my opinion, this was a downgrade.

Wish I could do a better review for these. I love Skullcandy and have been a customer for move than 12 years. I have just lost a set of over the ear cans that I used for mowing the lawn for over 10 years. I love the brand and love the sound. So, Still love you guys, but this product is a deal breaker. Do Not Recommend. The earbuds started out strong and offered the best phone call quality I've ever seen, customers couldn't hear my kids or dogs and I was floored. I use them every day and have enjoyed them since April of 2025. The sound profiles ANC, Stay-Aware, and Off are all great. Off is as you would expect an earbud, ANC was quite good, though not perfect, the stay-aware is perfect. Much better than others, no delay, no digital oddities, just wonderful! These earbuds are unstoppable! About October the shine started to come off as I was terribly tired of repositioning the surrounding ear silicone every time I plugged them back in to ensure that they would charge. The battery case started to need charging almost daily. Finally, the right earbud came apart when I removed it from my ear. Right at the seam, with some odd glue stuff behind the seam. Looks like they used some craft glue to put these together. When I went to put them back together I didn't see a quick and easy way to glue them myself, so I reached out to Skullcandy. The issue is a known and common issue, I've read it all over about these specific earbuds. The solution, spend about $30 and mail them in to be repaired or evaluated for repair. I use these all day every day and don't just have time to mail them back at about 1/5 the cost of the ear buds to begin with. So I kept going. Very gently using the earbud on the right, it seems to work until I can locate a reliable second pair. I was looking at the Method 540 ANC so I could have two pair ready to go, but they aren't for sale anywhere except the manufacturers site at the moment. Two days ago Firmware Update 1.3.6 was recommended and I updated, not thinking anything of it. Now they're almost useless. None of the buttons work, none of the call control features work. I can control the buds directly with sound profiles (ANC, Stay-Aware, and Off). These are essentially unusable compared to the other day when they were just broken due to a known manufacturing defect, that I could work around... This is just the last straw for me. I feel like these may be version 1.0 and maybe there's fixes coming, I just didn't expect them to have the longevity of a $30 pair of bluetooth headphones. These aren't cheap and if they worked would be worth every penny, but renting great results for just about a half a year it's not worth the $130 I started off with.

The sound quality on these earphones is amazing. This is the first time ive ever used any earphones with active noice cancelation and I can't go back anymore. Coming from 3 year old skullcandy rails before, this is definitely a big step up. Charging is with a usb-c connection so I just use the cable I have for charging my phone. Makes it really convenient and easy. The battery lasts about 5 days with 3 hours a day of usage, probably can get 6 days but I charge them after 5 days just in case. Now, all that being said, there are some issues unfortunately. Issues I believe stem from quality control, or lack thereof. First of all, the first set I got ended up constantly dropping audio. The audio would completely cut out and go silent while the song continued on so it sounded like random sound cutting out. The anc still remained on but the audio would just cut out constantly. So I had to ask for a replacement. Now, the 2nd pair worked better but every now and then the audio would still cut out, to the point of it being almost twice a day and I use these things 5 days a week for about 3 hours a day. Thats gonna be -1 star. Another issue is that the left earbud would not turn on by itself when pulled out of the case like the right earbud would. Id always have to turn it on manually by holding the touch sensor on the left bud for a few seconds. Not a big issue if it was only once but it is every single time I want to use them. Thats twice a day, 5 days a week at least. The rails never had this issue. So thats -1 star again. Lastly, after only 6 months of use the left earbud's casing split apart when I pulled it out of my ear. That's something id expect to happen after years of use, not 6 months. So I had to RMA them through the 1 year manufacturer's warranty. Thats yet another -1 star The newest ones, my 3rd pair of these earphones now, seem to be working much better. Rarely drops the audio, both earbuds turn on when pulled out of the case as well. Here's hoping they last more than 6 months.. if not, after having used skullcandy for the past 15+ years and recommending them to all my friends and family, I might finally have to switch to a new brand. Cause at this price point, thats far too many issues sadly. All in all, audio quality is amazing on these things, but build quality definitely leaves something to be desired.

Super cute and comfortable. I have always had problems with ear buds, my ears are very small/narrow and ear buds always hurt my ears. These are so comfortable that I often forget that I have them in. The sound to me is pretty great! The noise cancellation is pretty good too. I have Beats Studio pros and these noise cancellation is better.

If you’re looking for a lower cost alternative to $250/$300 earbuds with FANTASTIC bass, these are what you’re looking for. Noise cancellation, ambient awareness, loud volume and EXCELLENT BASS. Bought used for $70, new ones are $130. Worth it!!!

So these are like Bose QC earbuds II same design and feel to them so if you ever seen or used them that's how it out of the case. The case is a bit weird it's a long case that slides up and down and each side is marked with R and L to tell which side each earbud goes to. The positives are the sound is amazing and anc is very good I use them at 40 to 50 percent volume and it blocks out a lot of sound. The charging is pretty fast about 20 minutes and I get an hour and some minutes back to listen to them again and these are very comfortable and come with 3 size options and are able it a good amount of colors to purchase and it has an option to connect to your email for fast connection to any device that uses that certain email which is cool. Another great thing is single earbud can use anc option which I use daily since my job only allows one earbud in and works great. Negatives are small in my opinion one is the battery life is a lie with anc on it lasts about 6.5 hours not 9 like it was registered on the list and I know because I usually work long shifts and about half way I have to charge up and second issue is with both earbuds in is stuttering this comes up at small intervals and it's annoying hearing skips in songs or video if you're in crowded place or on a walk and I think it has to do with Bluetooth connection not going through multiple channels and skull app is useless so I tried to fix by using their methods to attempt a fix and it still happens so I think it's a bad Bluetooth connection and I looked online and seen other people complaining about this issue. So in the end if skullcandy could fix the connection stutters and their own app to get this small issue to go away I would rate them 5 out 5 but it ain't it gots some issues like I mentioned above but it's like a good alternative to a cheaper version of the Bose QC earbuds II
