Skullcandy Method 360 ANC review: A cheaper version of Bose’s best earbuds, with a few key sacrifices
63% Informative
Skullcandy's Method 360 ANC earbuds feature a Bose-inspired design and sound quality.
It's a step up from the Anker Soundcore Space A40 , the longtime top pick in our guide to the best earbud under $ 100 .
The default sound signature is extremely V-shaped: The bass is massive, the treble is bright and everything in between is recessed.
The only major omissions are the lack of wireless charging and a short one-year warranty.
Skullcandy ’s ANC is still better-than-average for bassheads shopping in this price range.
It cuts out a fair chunk of the bassy rumble of an NYC subway train, but higher-pitched screeches and stop announcements are very much audible with music playing at moderate volumes.
Call quality isn’t great: The mic does well to limit background noise, but it struggles with wind and makes your voice sound noticeably thin and processed.
