Skullcandy Grind Wireless In-Ear Earbuds - True Black

I bought these 2 years ago and to this day, the first pair I got still work as if I just got them. Although the right earbud has a slight charging issue, I find it's easily resolved by blowing on the case where it's stored, and/or wiping it down. Sound quality and noise cancelation is absolutely peak. 10/10 I would recommend getting these.

Great product!!!

Absolute trash. These earbuds worked great for a few months then they stopped charging if the case was closed, then they wouldn’t go into sleep/off mode when the case was closed & they kept automatically connecting to my phone causing me to miss calls & important notifications. I bypassed that by having to shut off Bluetooth on my phone but then they started overriding my other Bluetooth devices. It got so irritating that a got a small faraday box to keep them in because they just wouldn’t shut off (which meant they also wouldn’t stay charged) or stop connecting. Then they’ve just stopped working all together, still connect but none of the settings will work, so sounds come out despite them being connected & multiple resets of them & my phone.

Edit: Had connectivity issues get worse as time went on. The left one always disconnected randomly until it quit connecting at all. Then it didn’t charge. Buds were always stored in the case. Never dropped. Nothing unusual. I wiped the connections. Tried all the troubleshooting methods. Nothing. Lasted about 6 months. I would not recommend or buy again. Not new to the brand. Always found Skull Candy decently priced and usable. I’m not really an ear bud person. I prefer over the ear headphones (I’ve been rocking the Crusher wireless for about 8 years now). Anyhow. I needed some portable buds I can leave at work as the funky, cheap, wired foam ones from work gives for free weren’t cutting it. Constantly got complaints my voice was muffled and unclear. These seemed to fit the bill. Cheap- affordable, didn’t break my budget, if someone steals them I can buy another set. I’ve had worse that cost more. Bluetooth- connects rather quickly. Way easier to pair between multiple devices than my Crushers. Can seamlessly switch between PC and my phone when I need to without needing to forget the previous device. Sound quality- Decent. They aren’t top tier. If your and audiophile these are not for you. But conversations, meetings, music, podcasts are all audible and clear. They do randomly cut out frequently which is more irritating each time it happens. Also, my left bud has quit working while wearing them more than once. The right one keeps working. To solve it I have to place it back in the case, close the case, and let it re-pair. I suggest keeping the case with you all the time. App- haven’t really used it much since the purpose was mostly for work meetings. If I delve into it I’ll update. Mic- voice command works. Reviewers mentioned muffled voice but I haven’t had any negative feedback since I switched to these. Which is awesome since voice quality was part of the reason I was looking to buy these. During phone calls while driving I do get told the background noise is louder than usual (traffic, wind, wipers). So the mic picks up more than it should. Battery life- So far they exceed expectation. I did a weeks worth of training videos every day and didn’t need to recharge the case. Every morning they were at 100%. A full 40 hour week in use and no need to charge. That’s a win.

11 days into my time with Grind, they have the usual feel Skullcandy has given me in the past. It feels plastic-like and all but they have a premium appearance and great sound. I have had the unfortunate luck of dropping it on my wood floors and to my surprise, not a scratch. First day they felt uncomfortable but messing with them more I found that I was wearing them wrong so you might deal with the same thing. As some of the models wearing them display them.. well differently in their ear, it isn't supposed to go straight up in your ear but lean back towards your back. Battery life is what they sell it as. Working 9 hour shifts they died in the parking lot to my car when I put them in at the start of my shift. Still haven't charged the case since charging to full once I got them. Weight isn't a problem either, like many day, though I understand that may vary person to person. They are very comfortable. If you're iffy about getting them I'd say this is a steal when it comes to the price, Skullcandy continues to provide the perfect experience for my music and podcasts again!

Pros: These sound great, when they're working. Nice and loud and crisp. Cons: The charging case is defective. These are supposed to disconnect from your Bluetooth receiver when the buds are in the case and it closed, but I've had 3 different sets of these now and they all stop this function shortly after purchase. This results in the buds never shutting off, and will play whatever you're listening to while in the case. Charging is inconsistent. (This could also be related to the above point) - buds will be in the case all night, with the case showing full reserve and still come out of the case at 70-80%. The left earbud worked for about 20 days, crackled, and then went out - and only worked for a few seconds if you 'flick it' hard enough to hurt your finger... No features without downloading the Skullcandy app. Including adjusting the EQ since these are waaay too bassy out of the box. The Grind "Fuel" appear to be a second iteration of these that have wireless charging and better charging case - so be careful which version you're selecting here. (Only the black and orange.) My wife has my original set that I bought years ago, she doesn't mind the case issue, but after 2 additional sets purchased through amazon and returned for being defective - I decided to try soundthing else. The SoundCore A40 is a much better earbud at a similar price point.

I’m giving these a solid five I’ve had a few ear pods and these sound the best ever the bass is clean and loud the his are great live the app with the eq two presets and one custom is more that enough these are comfortable and with the three different sized ear gels they should fit any ear bit the sound is impressive and i’m an audiophile big time the holder has magnets to make them snap in the charging case love it i’ve listened to Rap Rock and metal music so far and all sounded great I’ve also used them at work for training on the ipad and sounds clear and the voice app tops the cupcake

Works perfect. Fits great in my ears

Estos audífonos me encantan. Desde que los tengo, se han vuelto parte de mi día a día. Lo que más me sorprendió es lo duradera que es la batería, puedes usarlos durante horas sin preocuparte por cargarlos. Otra gran ventaja es que puedes controlarlos con comandos de voz, lo cual es comodísimo cuando estás haciendo ejercicio o manejando. Además, el sonido es de excelente calidad y puedes ajustar el ecualizador desde la app de Skullcandy para personalizarlo a tu gusto. Se conectan rápido, no fallan, y el estuche también es compacto y práctico. No tengo ninguna queja: los amo. Totalmente recomendados si buscas audífonos inteligentes, potentes y duraderos.

One of the best project in sound nice.

Even after replacement, again having issues with my earbuds! Recharging issue, unable to hear with left earbud, disturbance while calling

Very disappointed. After 6 months just used in 2 holidays right earbud stopped working.

Sound is good. Works well and can operate individually. Long battery life. I love the voice command and stay aware feature. The down side is that at times it is connected when in it's charging case.
