  • Rich, Warm, Balanced, Natural Sound For Under Thirty Bucks

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 17, 2008
    Pros: Great balanced sound, deep bass, crisp highs, volume control, great price.
    Cons: None come to mind.

    Summary: Sometimes, the numbers don’t tell the whole story. Some people say that stats don’t lie, while others claim that all they are are lies and...darned lies, to be polite. One thing is for sure: when it comes to something as subjective as speakers ... read more

    Jan 16, 2012
    Pros: Great bass, noise reduction, fairly cheap
    Cons: breaks quickly

    Summary: The Bass response in the Skull Candy Smokin Buds is phenomenal. Dub-steppers like me would be overjoyed. Just do not get too used to them because nothing good ever lasts forever, or in this case, three weeks of pocket travel. The less expensive you can ... read more

    Pros: Great fit, Good sound, Good value.
    Cons: Wish they were a little bit tougher.

    Nov 24, 2009
    Pros: Eliminates most outside noise
    good clean/clear sound
    Cons: too large to wear in bed...see review

    Summary: I gotta strike it rich with a good name one day. Would you believe that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Sponge Bob Square Pants and now SkullCandy Smokin Buds would be marketable names? I wouldn't and I suppose that's why I'm reviewing these ear buds ... read more

  • Smokin' Buds Need More Product Development and Less Cutesy Hype

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 5, 2009
    Pros: light weight, slider switch, in-the-ear design
    Cons: unimpressive frequency response, cheaply made

    Summary: I was sitting staring at my account over at mycokerewards.com not long ago with a couple thousand points burning a hole in my virtual pocket. At about the same time, I decided that I should probably get a backup pair of headphones for my iPod (remind me ... read more

  • Do NOT buy Skullcandy headphones.

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 19, 2009
    Pros: Great sound for your money.
    Cons: Cheaply manufactured, break easily, replacement process is a pain.

    Summary: Long story short...I bought a pair of the Smokin' Buds for 27 bucks at Zumiez. Great sound, comfort and all, but the wiring in the cord came loose (where the headphones connect to the iPod) after 2 months and the right headphone goes out and only worked ... read more

    Pros: Stays in ear, colors, noise reduction and comfy even over an hour in.
    Cons: A little pricey

    Jan 7, 2008
    Pros: Nice visual design Volume slider
    Cons: Break easily Buds fall out a lot

    Summary: I got these earbuds for $40 at futureshop. I didn't have any previous experience with in-ear headphones, so I didn't really know what to expect. They come with a decent case, but it is not very practical for every-day use. The buds themselves looked ... read more

  • A lot of bang for a few bucks

    Aug 19, 2007
    Pros: Excellent sound and noise cancelling properties on a budget
    Cons: Can't think of any.

    Summary: I purchased these headphones because of a noisy office work environment. I could not afford, nor would work pay for, expensive headphones like the Bose or Sony noise-cancelling headphones. The regular earbuds I was using were not enough to drown out ... read more

    Feb 12, 2007
    Pros: Stylish, Inline volume control, noise cancellation, excellent audio quality.
    Cons: Falls out easy, flimsy case, not good for jogging/running/exercise, broke in under a week!

    Summary: Skullcandy's smokin buds earbud headphones are a very sleek set of earbuds, but are fatally flawed. The smokin buds come in a few flavors - choose the one that suits your liking. On average, these earbuds cost about $20.00 USD. In the ... read more

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 7, 2006
    Pros: Exceptional sound, durable, eliminates almost all outside noise.
    Cons: Expensive but more than worth it.

    Summary: I never thought that I would pay over $20.00 for a pair of headphones. Call me cheap, call me thrifty, call me a penny pincher but I can't see spending a lot of money on something that is only going to last me, at most, six months of use at the ... read more

    Pros: Price, on sale.
    sound is good for a month or two.
    Cons: Quality!!!!

    Summary: I have purchased five pairs of these from Steep and Cheap. Having paid only around $10.00 a pair I don't feel bad but I am down to one working pair. All of the others have lost sound in one ear. If you are hung up on a cool name and a free sticker

    Pros: Great colours, easy cleaning
    Cons: Sometimes don't last too long

    Summary: I was given the pink/white version of these as a gift, and I loved them. They stay in your ears, block out most noise, and are very easy to clean. Unfortunately for me, one of them (right and left are not labeled on these, just FYI) stopped working. They
