Skullcandy Crusher S6CAW-S986
92 out of 100 low confidence 6 reviews
The SkullCandy Crusher ANC 2 receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from verified purchasers. Users praise the adjustable haptic bass, exceptional battery life, and comfortable fit for extended wear. The active noise cancellation is effective for most environments, though some note it is not total soundproofing. A few minor complaints include the lack of track skip buttons and a soft carrying case.
