Review:
There's a serious lack of affordable, decent-sounding Bluetooth earphones, so the Skullcandy Smokin' Buds 2 Wireless, fills a need. At rs3500, it's one of the better-sounding options below 5000rs segment—but only if you like seriously boosted bass response. The bass here is powerful and never distorts., the Smokin' Buds 2 Wireless is a solid entry in a growingfield.
The Smokin' Buds 2 Wireless has a removable neckband (what Skullcandy calls the "flex-collar"). You can choose to wear the rubberized band, which gently fastens to your neck and eliminates any tug on the earphone cables, or you can opt to remove the compartment that houses the charging port and the electronics and wear it sans neck band, in a behind-the-head style. A small clip for cable management allows for eliminating any cable slack so your fit is secure.
Offered in black/red, black/chrome, or white, the earphones feature a control panel along the flat, linguini-esque cable, on the left ear side. The panel houses a mic and a three-button remote control. The central button controls power, play/pause, Bluetooth pairing, and call management, while the + and - buttons control volume or track navigation, depending on how long you hold them down. The volume controls work in conjunction with the master volume levels on your mobile device.
The earphones only ship with two pairs of eartips, one large and one small—even at this price, that seems like one pair too few. There's also no carrying pouch—other than the extra set of tips and the clip, the only other included item is the micro USB-to-USB charging cable, which connects to the compartment held by the neckband. Skullcandy estimates battery life to be about 6 hours, but your results will depend on how loudly you play your music.
Performance: (4/5)
the hadphones deliver exceptionally powerful bass response and the sound quality is very good, the only downside being the range of the Bluetooth which is very less and also can be paired to one device at a time,other than that the band is a good fit, it seems to resist sweat and also the battery life is good.
The Skullcandy smoking buds 2 can only be paired to one device at a time, In order to pair it with another device it has to be reset and then paired.
RESET :press and hold both the volume up + and volume down button – at once until u see a red and blue light blink, then turn on the device as usual and pair it again with any other device.
This has to be done every time u want to pair a new device and ensure there is high battery charge as well.
Hope this helps u folks out there.
