Usually because people come into a thread, bash the product and don't give any suitable, similarly priced alternatives...

Wouldn't say they were a suitable replacement given they're not wireless...

expired now, back up to £59.99

Tried these today (with the wire, as I couldn't connect to the BT), they actually sound quite good. Trying to decide between this and the Bose SoundLink On-Ear BT. Couldn't compare side by side but pretty sure the difference doesn't feel worth £150..

Sound on these are awesome. Bluetooth is meant to loose quality but to be honest they sound great.

just got these. lovely sound. warmer flavour but very clear and has good bass. gets a bit hot on the ears after a while

I have these headphones. Sound quality is very good, decent bass, clear mids and highs. Bluetooth sound quality is very good. I use them when watching TV and playing PS4 connected to a Bluetooth telly. I can't say I've noticed any sync issues. My only gripe is that they can get a little uncomfy after a while, but I don't have the most symmetrical of lugs, so it could be that.

I love the sound of these so much, I've ordered the wired ones for home use:

Bargain.

I think I have listened to nearly every skullcandy model,including these,the aviator were the only ones I would have recommended for the price they were sold at.
I also would not recommend any BT headphones at this price point,much better to go for a wired set,where sound quality is not compromised over electronic circuitry.

Skullcandy = typical fashion headphones,poor sound and quality !
Why do people buy into this and Beats rubbish?

Audio Technica M20X for £39.00 @ Amazon

The list of alternatives would be toooooo long !!!!

sound is terrible on these wireless headphones, but they are on nearly all wireless headphones, if you want some good sounding headphones, get wired ones, if you want mediocre, get wireless

The delay is due to buffering. You can't avoid it with Bluetooth, they store a small amount of data before playing it out. This means that gaps in the audio can be avoided if a packet on air is delayed or lost/resent. Around 60ms is typical in the headphones themselves,but some may be as much as 120ms. The source device may also do some buffering. Some people are really bothered by this delay. Others just don't seem to notice it.

Are these any good for video / games? I've had bluetooth headphones in the past, but they've been useless for watching video or playing games as there's a good 1/4 second delay between video and sound. Not sure if that's dependent on the source (currently an iPhone 6 in my case) or just down to the headphones.

Bought these from Amazon and delivered yesterday. Stunning sound.

I bought from Amazon because if anything goes wrong with them they will refund or replace without any hassle.

I had more trouble opening the box than pairing them with my iPhone. :smile:

Cold, have had few skullcandy head and earphones and all of them broke within few month. Avoid this brand

links updated... :wink:

I've had these since April, no issues and good sound. Bought the wireless inkd a couple of weeks back and they're awesome too.

If you don't need the Bluetooth the wired model is less than half the price (blue £18 / black £20)
Surprisingly Innerfidelity rated them highly for durability and sound quality in the price range.
