Skullcandy Method 360 ANC

Koyel Sen

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC earbuds are affordable true wireless earbuds from Skullcandy with a combination of the brand’s signature bass-heavy sound and input by Bose into active noise cancellation technology. It has 12mm drivers, adjustable active noise cancellation technology, Stay Aware feature, Bluetooth multipoint, and a dedicated low latency gaming mode. It also has quite decent battery life which can last up to 32 hours when ANC is enabled and when charged with the help of the charging case. On the downside, the awkwardly bulky design of the case, unique placement of earbuds, and extremely sensitive touch controls are really annoying. Overall, the earbuds’ sound still has a lot of bass and may not appeal to people who are looking for more balanced audio.

Final Verdict

The Skullcandy Method 360 ANC headphonesis a decent mid-range pair of TWS headphones that get the necessary features right. The highlight of these headphones is their ANC, while other useful features include battery life, multi-device connection, Stay-Aware mode, and low-latency gaming mode. However, when it comes to the sound quality, these headphones do not have much resemblance to the Bose headphones because it is still quite typical of the Skullcandy headphones with their preference towards powerful bass sounds. In addition, the design of the headphones with the bulky charging case and strange earbuds positioning is not as impressive.
