Skullcandy Lowrider

it is very good headphones and the suond it is realy nice

I ordered the Skullcandy Lowrider Headphones / In Ear Double Pack / White from play. Com…..

Having ordered the item on the 10th November 2011 with an original release date of the 11th, the release date was pushed back to the 29th November 2011. This wasn’t a bad thing, as they were for Christmas, so I thought nothing of it.

By the 30th January the skip/pause/ rewind button on the Low-rider Headphones had stopped working. I contacted Play.com to ask for a new set or replacement, I received a generic response to my query and they did not publish my review on their website. 2 ½ months later the in-ear earphones have stopped working. These are not fit for purpose, as I am now unable to use both of them… to add insult to injury, I can’t return them either! I’d give them no starts if I could, but 1 is the minimum you can give.

It would have been beneficial to know that I would be unable to return the item (even broken) after the 30 days had expired!!!

Customer service for UK and Europe is terrible, and terrible is being polite...I could use a lot stronger words for their customer service!

Love the product but broke recently due to general wear and tear (faulty connection on jack) and getting a response from the UK team is almost impossible with them suggesting things like take them back to the shop where purchased even though they apparently offer a 'lifetime manufacturers warranty'. Total bs!!!

Would avoid buying these simply due to extremely poor customer service. Maybe give it a year or so until they have actually set up their European operations fully!

Giving this product one star is one too many.

Right side stopped working. Expecting a loose cable on inspection there was nothing obvious inside the earpiece so could be a speaker fault or a bad connection or break at the jack-plug end. Further inspection was aborted as sound production was worse than the earplugs I bought on an aeroplane. Now in the plastic re-cycle bin where they belong. If you are a skier, forget tweeness go for class; if you're a boarder buy those so cheap that they are really 'disposable'like the plug kind - and stay away from the skiers!

They look great, but appalling quality. Used them for around 6 months before they snapped in half. Very flimsy considering the amount of money they cost.

Sounds quality is OK, not great but average. Comfort is poor, can feel too "tight" around the top of the ear, and start to ache a little after using them for around 30 minutes.

Won't be buying them again, terrible quality!

In my opinion, Skullcandy is just for looks, their designs are indeed nice, but the quality of the sound can be improved. Mine lasted 5 months and, for a £40 pair of headphones, that is a damn shame.

First of all I'd just like to mention I go thorough and test out lot of headphones. The other day I went past a cheap deal on the headphones from TKMAX discount store in UK. So I Thought I might as well as they were only about $15. As I looked at reviews I sort of knew what it was going to be like. As soon as I opened up the headphones and layed them down the first thing I did was get some electrical tape and tape down the area where the wire enters the ear cup and just above the jack. I do this to try to give it a longer life. So I compared it to $12 Sony Studio MDR-V150.

Ive had these headphones for about 4 months and they've just about lasted. Overall I would not recommentd this or any other skullcandy headphones. SKULLCANDY ONLY GOOD DESIGN. NO QUALITY IN THE SOUND OR PRODUCT. THERE ARE MUCH BETTER HEADPHONES IN THIS PRICE RANGE. SEE SONY OR SEINHESSER.

I've had 2 sets of these. Seeing as the first broke within 4 months. The cord breaks inside and either side of the headphone doesnt work. Then I got another pair, I have no idea why, and the same thing happened. Plus, I feel if I was to put any force on them, that they'd break like a twig.

I would not recommend these, the sound quality isn't fantatsic and after a little usage the part which slids to fit your head... BROKE!

Don't buy them, its a waste of money.

they are horrible, they are made out of cheap plastic yet cost £22.00, skullcandy have really failed at making a cheap affordable GOOD headphone. i only just bought mine and i am dissapointed, i expected metal parts and hard anti shock plastic , i could snap the headring by just dropping them lightly. the sound quality is very good on the upside , its about the only thing i can think of thats decent , i bought the yellow ones and personally i want to sell them but who would want to buy them ?! i wanted to have a good reliable pair of headphones that were cheap , but obviously its to much to ask for from skullcandy, if they hadnt of got the pictures on the sides i can bet my money they would cost just under 8 pound.

I like this product it's sound quality i have not like
