Product Description
We spend hundreds of hours designing, testing and perfecting every Skullcandy product in our Utah headquarters. But our engineers aren’t your typical corporate lab-coat-wearing technicians. They’re people who love music. They live for adventure. And they know what it’s like to work on the go. Probably a lot like you.
Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

The quality is excellent and it works great for gaming since it has a built-in noise cancellation. The features work as advertised, and the sound quality is good.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the headphones. Some mention that they're not Bose or Sony, but they are quality. The ANC isn't the best, but it is still pretty good. Especially for an intro pair, the Venus are a decent headphone. However, others say that using only a few minutes the material started falling apart, the build construction is absolutely terrible, and the brittle plastic chosen is disappointing. They also lack durability in the ear pads and headband fabric, do not feel extremely sturdy, and creak a bit when flexing.

Customers are mixed about the fit of the headphones. Some mention that the size is perfect for their daughter, but tight for them. The battery life is excellent, and the case is compact.

"...A little snug around the ears and hoping this will ease up after using more...." Read more
"...I got the push because they actually fit my ears and don't feel like they're so heavy they'll fall out...." Read more
"...My ears must a little bit on the larger side because they barely fit inside the pads with the pad still resting on my earlobe...." Read more
"...Earcups are also a little small but my ears still fit cause i got small ears...." Read more

"...Venue's on the other hand come with easy instructions and clear easy to use function buttons. Advantage Venue on this one...." Read more
"...These charged rather quickly out of the box. Paired quickly to all my devices...." Read more
"...I opened it up, fixed it and it never wanted to reconnect to Bluetooth. The solder joints in these headphones are very weak...." Read more

When my Skullcandy Hesh headphones got to the point where the 3.55 jack could no longer connect properly with any cord, I finally switched to bluetooth headphones, using the ones I used with my phones at first—Skullcandy Push and some Vivitar over-the-ears I picked up from Target for $10. The Vivitars had good battery life, but the Pushes had good noise canceling from just being in-the-ear. After a month of this, I realized I needed something better, some ANC.
I looked around, looked at pricing, looked at reviews, looked at many other brands just to hopefully find a good deal. There was always some dealbreaker. Slow charge. Expensive. Good battery life as long as you don't use ANC. I held off on looking at any other Skullcandy because, as I'm sure you've guessed, I've been a bit of a brand loyalist and I wanted to make sure I wasn't favoring Skullcandy just because it was Skullcandy.
Let me tell you, I favor Skullcandy because they actually deliver. I started buying them decades ago, because their earbuds were cheap and reliable. I bought the Hesh because they were less expensive than the other headphones on display yet sounded better. I got the push because they actually fit my ears and don't feel like they're so heavy they'll fall out.
The Venues look and feel extremely comfortable. They stay on my head even with rapid movement and don't need to rest on the top of my head. My Vivitars had a small headband that would touch my scalp and, after shaving the sides of my head, I found had actually been giving me contact dermatitis (aka a rash). The Venue headband doesn't need to touch my scalp at all to stay on. My scalp and mohawk are safe.
I got the Venues because reviews said the ANC was great—and it is. I can game in the same room as my spouse and hear him clearly over the voice chat without hearing him in the same room. Even with no sound playing, the ANC still makes it calm and quiet in the room. I'm tempted to start wearing these while I'm out just to have the ANC on normal outside sounds.
I got the Venues because reviews said the battery life was great—and it is. They arrived with no charge, but got enough charge in 10 minutes for me to use them with ANC for the rest of the night, which was about 5-6 hours of gaming with ANC on. I was using two headphones previously when I switched to bluetooth because the Push battery life is only about 4 hours and I would use the Vivitar while waiting for them to recharge. The Venues hold enough battery life on a full charge for me to use them all day while working from home, and then gaming for the night, all with ANC on and not needing to plug them back in at all.
Let me repeat this important point: The Venues last ALL DAY with a full charge, and in the event that they do run out, they will charge sufficiently in TEN MINUTES. And if you can't charge, there's still a 3.55mm jack for your audio.
There are other features of the Venue that I have not tried because they are not of interest to me (such as Skullcandy's partnering with Tile for locating devices, the hands-free call & assistant integration, etc). I use these headphones as my primary PC headphones, not with my smartphone, so I can't comment on any of the smartphone integration features.

I use these headphones as my primary PC headphones, not with my smartphone, so I can't comment on any of the smartphone integration features.
I tested the Skullcandy Venue headphones side by side against the Bose QuietComfort 35 II headphones. Here are my impressions:
Sound Quality. Much to my surprise I actually found the Venue's to sound better than the Bose', at least to my ear. The Venue's have a much rounder and more full tone and comparatively the Bose sounded a little thin so I give the edge to Venue on this one.
Noise Cancelling. This one was close, again much to my surprise. Both headsets were able to do a good job rejecting outside noise. Although the Venue's had a very slight white noise with ANC on and no music playing but not enough to put me off. However the Bose' have an additional feature of a high and low ANC setting which could be useful depending on the environment that you are using then in. Slight advantage Bose on this one.
Comfort. The weight of both headphones are within 4/100 of a Lb. (yes I weighed them) so weight is not an issue. The Venue headphones fit a little tighter and snugger around the ear which makes for a good seal but might be a little less comfortable during periods of long use or if you have a large head. On the other hand the Bose are just the opposite they have more head strap room than anyone could ever use and the cans are much bigger than the average ear. This provides some short term comfort but if you move your head quickly they can actually move around on your head. I'm calling this one a tie because this is just personal preference.
Build Quality. First Impression is that Bose has a higher quality. Theirs include some metal alloy where the Venue's are almost completely plastic. I found the Venue's to be sturdy feeling and was not put off by the look or feel. I have to give the advantage to Bose here.
User Experience. Bose includes no user manual in the packaging and basically requires you to download and install their proprietary app in order to set up and learn how to use their headphones. This offers the benefit of assigning a virtual assistant to a button. This is helpful if you use Alexa or Google but not if you use Siri because it comes pre-assigned. I found the app an unnecessary hassle with little benefit. Venue's on the other hand come with easy instructions and clear easy to use function buttons. Advantage Venue on this one.
Value. In the end, nether of these headphones blew the other away in anything but price. So this one was a no brainer for me. These are both high quality headphones. The differences are much less than I expected and many of them will come down to personal preference. If cost is not a number one concern and you listen more to podcasts than music I can see how you might choose the Bose. I have other Bose products currently and the quality is generally very good but I cannot say that I ever felt that the price point was commensurate with the value of the product. Considering the quality I am finding in the Venue's and at 1/2 the price of the Bose, for me it's an easy decision. I am picking the Venue's. Your mileage my vary.

klang is ziemlich gut auch der bass is sehr nice . selbst bei meinen beyerdynamics one pro muss ich mit equilizer nachhelfen damit genug druck da ist , bei den skullcandy passt es schon out of the box gefällt mir sehr ^^
Pros: cancelación de ruido buena (casi premium pero menor), buena compatibilidad con tile, sonidos de medios,altos y bajos equibilibrado(los bajos no son super brutales pero son buenos), viene con estuche y eso se agradece, tiene el modo monitor y eso me encanta, la compatibilidad es buena y en términos generales es bueno.
Contras: Los materiales no son tan asquerosos como los Hesh 3, pero tampoco son tan buenos como los Crusher ANC, las almohadillas se giran para enfrente y no hacía atrás, no son 100% plegables, pero si se pueden girar las almohadillas.
