These earbuds have the best quality sound I've ever heard in an earbud! Solid bass and realistic vocals. It made me fall in love with my music all over again!I am very much a fan. Skullcandy all the way!

Great Headphones With 1 Flaw

April 23rd, 2013

by Amber

I love these headphones. Im pretty much a snob when it comes to the quality of any headphone I use and Skullcandy has always been a go to for me. These headphones were comfortable and I constantly use them. Night and day because Im a college kid. they deliver great rich sound, clear vocals, and the right amount of bass for me. I've had friends say its not enough for them, but for me its perfect. If you're looking for a headphone that gives you a sick amount of bass, these might not be for you, but try them out before you say no. the mic and remote are a necessity for me. Its make or break if headphones dont have them. However the mic during calls was lacking (making the person you're talking to sound far away) but it was clear. The only thing that is a major con for me is the way that the jack and wire area is made. In the beginning it seemed really sturdy and strong and it seemed it would be able to hold up with daily use of being slightly tugged, snagged, and being able to hold up with removing and inserting the headphone in. To me this seems like a problem with all skullcandy in ear headphone wires. Even though these headphones are starting to do the "no sound" in one ear, Skullcandy has an amazing warranty policy and it takes care of replacing them. I just wish they would work on the build and stability of the jack and that area.

I am a dedicated listener of heavy metal and classic rock and I would have to say this are amazing. I have a hard time deciding between the Titans and these for my favorite Skullcandy headphones. Awesome quality for the price, my pair finally gave up this week when the left side failed after close to 2 years of faithful daily duty. They have great sound, nice balance between bass and treble. They can handle the double bass of most faster metal without giving up. I did not realize when I bought these that they were not android compatible with the mic (and that was my bad,not Skullcandy's) , but after listening to these for almost 2 years I still love them.

Really Good Buds

April 19th, 2013

by Kev

I had a broken pair of Heshs, and got an $80 voucher, (which is sick). Wanted to try one of their gaming headsets, but learnt the warrenty coupon doesnt apply to the gaming products. I wasnt mad, but a bit dissapointed. I have uprocks and ink'd buds, but thought this was a good opportunity to try out some pricier buds. They have a really nice sound and range of deep lows to nice highs. Definitely nicer than the ink'd, and depending on how often you'll use them, they're gonna be worth the extra bit of coin. Got the navy which look a lot more black than blue, but kinda in a good way. Overall, pretty happy!

March 21st, 2013

by Trey

I had a pair of Titans (which I loved) and I left them at the golf course one day so after months of review and comparison between multiple brands and models I decided these were the ones for me. I have never enjoyed a pair of earbuds this much in my life! The bass is thick and punchy but not overpowering. The kind of bass that creates a suction in your brain but at the same time allows the highs to come through on top. I do have to say, however, that the build quality isn't the best in the world but with a lifetime warranty I don't really care. Bottom line: Best earbuds ever, don't waste your money on anything else.

50/50's Are Awesome!

I just got mine today and I'm really happy with them. They feel really comfortable and I use the smallest buds as they fit me the best and don't fall out. The sound quality is great!

The bass in these are amazing, the sound quality in general are amazing. I listen to rap/hop/dubstep and all levels are amazing. They cancel noise pretty well, i listen to them at about 3/4 way up the volume bar and its PERFECT. I've had these for over a year and STILL have nothing to complain about.

February 6th, 2013

by Lucas

I just got these today in the mail, and they made a great first impression. I bought these because my Beats Solos broke. With Beats, you are paying for the name brand more than a pair of good headphones. These 50/50s I like much better because the sound quality is the same as Beats by Dre without the huge price tag. Highly recommended!

Too rubbery

January 31st, 2013

by Francisco

I've had my 50/50 for over a year now, and use it almost everyday on my commute. Although I do like the sound quality (for the price) and the noise insulation (not hearing street noise is almost worth using it alone), I have a LOT of problem with it staying in place. Not the fitting, wich is good with the 3 sized buds, but the cord is SOOO rubbery that it will stick to EVERYTHING, and I do mean that. If you wear a collared shirt to work (and I do), forget about it, because the volume/mic thing will grab your collar like a castaway to a life jacket. It just grabs on to it everytime I turn my head, and it is really annoying, wich makes the 50/50 very frustrating to use. My suggestion is to make the cord less rubbery and to place the volume control and mic half an inch down or up the cord. Seriuosly, I'd love this thing if it wasn't such a hassle.

Surprisingly Dissappointing

January 23rd, 2013

by Hannah

I was surprisingly disappointed with these headphones. Within a month, the volume function on these headphones stopped working. At high volumes these headphones sound, as I like to call it, like they're in a tin can. At any volume, the bass is weak. They don't fit quite right, they always feel like they're going to fall out. And, not quite sure if this is just user error or a malfunction, but the keep shocking me. I do though, really enjoy the sound isolation in these headphones. At nearly any volume, they block quite a bit of outside noise. I find that my old in-ear Chops sounded better overall, heck, even my JVC marshmallows sounded better bass-wise.

THE FOLLOWING IS A TRUE STORY

January 21st, 2013

by Alex

So i'm sitting in class with my 50/50s on. All the sudden everybody stands up. I'm like "okaayy??" so I stand up too. Then everbody starts walking to the door. At this point I take my headphones out and to my suprise, the fire alarm was sounding! I was not listening to loud music either! They need to advertise these as noise canceling if they aren't already. PS: My school's fire alarms don't flash in the class rooms. That is partially why I didn't know they were sounding Overall: Great product. If you are looking for Hard, Pounding Bass you have come to the right place! They stay in your ear and you can hear every instrument that is playing. Good job Skullcandy, best headphones I have ever put in my ears!

BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product

Great headphones, great price

January 16th, 2013

by Annonymous fan

The quality of the sound is very clear, nice bass. They are very comfortable, only pull out of your ears if you really tug on them. the cord is flat, which, means no tangling, if any at all, unlike apple earphones. only occasional problems with mic3 controls, but odds are you wont need to skip or repeat songs often. If, you are a skeptic like myself, and read reviews on everything, trust me, these are great, dont forget that they come with smaller buds so if they dont fit at first, dont freak out. The buds also stay very secure. the carrying case is also very useful. BOTTOM LINE buy these!

Ok, but there are better options

January 9th, 2013

by Skullcandy consumer

I got these after returning my titans for the second time. First off, I have to say that these headphones have a great look them. They're modern looking, and chic. I do have a problem with the comfort. Ever since I got these, the right earbud hasn't been fitting in my ear as well as the other. It gets really irritating when it falls out. The control works really well. Soundwise, I think that they could do better. The bass is nice but definitely not as good as the titans. They block out a good amount of noise, but the titans are better. Overall, these re good earbuds, but I personally think that they could do better.

50/50 that's how i feel about them

January 6th, 2013

by Dave

These buds have incredible bass. I owned a pair of bose earbuds and these blow those away sound wise. The big problem is quality. I'm on my third pair now, my left earbud stops working after a few months. They replace them under the lifetime warranty which is good, but the problem is that I'm stuck without earbuds for 4 to 6 weeks every three months. I wouldn't recommend these because of quality issues

I've had this for less than a year and I was so satisfied with it. It's totally worth my money though I'm considering buying Hesh 2 because recently the right earphone seems to have problems regarding its volume but other times the volume seems to gradually return to normal although if you're using both you could totally feel the volume differences.

Best In Ear Headphones I Have Ever Owned/Used

November 27th, 2012

by Dionisios

I got these from my brother as a birthday present, and I love them. They sound better than any in ear headphones I have ever used/owned. They are well balanced, have good bass (but not too much bass), and are clear. Also, they look awesome, have a mic 3, and have a HARD SHELL CASE. I barely have any complaints, but they are not the most comfortable and they don't stay in your ear that well. They do stay in your ear pretty well though, and are pretty comfortable.

Best earbuds I've owned.

October 26th, 2012

by Kittie

I have small ears and got used to avoiding earbuds. I did lots of research and these were the most recommended earbuds for small ear canals. I'm glad to say the reviews are spot on. The smallest earbud silicone tip (set comes w/3) fit like a glove and keep the buds in my ears, even with shaking from jogging. The sound quality is amazing compared to headsets that come gratis with phones/music players, and the mic is perfectly decent. I like the flat cord; so much less tangling in my backpack. One thing to note -- the cord is longer than normal, presumably so you can use the earbuds with different kinds of computers, or maybe to accommodate taller people. This isn't a con in my opinion, but if you're 5'6" or shorter, you may have to get creative to keep it from snagging on things.

Great Earphone, Great Price

October 26th, 2012

by Phasma Phasmatis

The 50/50 is a well-balanced mixture of audio. It has everything from crystal clear highs, precise mids, etc. However, the bass sounds like a muddy thump, lacking the clarity it claims to have. For the price, the bass is only decent. Comfort is exceptional, with no additional weight burdening your ears when you have it on. Also, it comes with large and small tips, allowing you to adjust to your likings.

High Quality Sound... for the right type of ear

October 25th, 2012

by Justin

I got these as a present from my girlfriend.. I've owned all tiers of skullcandy ear buds. I find these are equal in quality to the sound experience offered in the Fix-In-Ear product line. Clarity, strong bass, and excellent sound quality. My problem arouse from the fitment. After wearing these for a few minutes, I found that they would pop out of my right ear spontaneously. It became annoying to the point where I opted for the Fix-In-Ear earbuds. Even after owning a pair of the top line ear buds offered by skull candy, I believe if they fit in your ears, these are the best line of skullcandy ear buds in terms of price and quality.

Well sad to say my pair finally went on me after about a year, first the mic went then the right ear went. Even though they no longer work, I have to say that were some pretty good headphones compared to the (apple, jvc, and sony) pair i still have as far as sound quality and fit. I give them 3 stars because of their short life span, and that's being careful with them. I wont be buying anymore of these UNTIL either the price comes down or the build quality changes.. I'll still recommend these based on sound quality and fit, but I really hope they build these a bit better.

These headphones weren't bad when I first got them, but I've had mine for about 6 months and they already stopped working in one ear. I don't even listen to my music that loud, so I'm pretty sure it didn't blow out. This is also the second pair I've had and the same exact thing happened to the first pair. If you want headphones that last you a while (especially for the price), I would not recommend these.

Overall, I love these earbuds.

With the first pair, the left speaker died suddenly. With the second pair, the mic/control unit cracked in half and eventually killed the left speaker again. If this third pair is still of the same shoddy quality #and I have no reason to think otherwise) then I am moving on. For now, I still recommend this product.

I have had 50/50's for about three months now, and i have to say they are incredible. The first time you listen to that song with tons of base, it sends cold chills down your spine because it is so hard to believe these small things deliver such a kicking bass. Sound quality is not muffled by the bass which is outstanding. They are very durable except for the mic on the cord but that really is not needed.

The skullcandy 50/50 is both chic and boasts pretty good sound quality, and is thus a definite recommend.

Lifetime Warrenty makes all the difference.

August 10th, 2012

by Chris M

Firstly, for a budget, wannabe audiophile, these are amazing. They're a little bass heavy, but I set the EQ on my iPhone to "Bass Reducer" and everything balances out. Sharp, crisp highs, clear, rich mids, and wonderful clean deep bass. They fit perfectly in my ears (I believe I have average ears as most buds fit) it takes a good tug of the cord to pull them out of my ears accidentally. The cable is of a great length, the controls are well placed. NOTE: the Mic and controls are on the LEFT, where as all the apple controls are on the right. Now for the downsides. The mic side of the control unit tends to turn away from you, so occasional you have to hold it while speaking in loud areas. The big problem seems to be a durability issue. the bud section is plastic, attached to metal. I have seen multiple pairs (after a year or so of heavy daily use) break at the point that they join. However, this is covered by the generous warranty! All in all I love them, and will continue to use and suggest them to others!

Durable Headphones With Awesome Bass

August 6th, 2012

by Trevor

If you are in the market for a good quality pair of earbuds this is the best place to look. The bass is mind blowing to say the least and comparable to many over-ear headsets. I can hear every sound that comes out from deep bass to high soprano. They are also quite comfortable for about 4-5 hours. After that they become a bit irritating but a 10 minute break will fix that. How durable they are truly amazes me. After accidently leaving them in my pocket they went through the washing machine. After looking for them for a few days i finally found them in my pocket. Terrified that I had broken my $60 headphones i rushed to my computer and brought up a song...they still worked. After 3 months of being put through tons of heavy dubstep I have noticed little drop in sound quality. If at all possible get the travel case. It keeps them nice and protected from the elements. If you are looking for a great pair of quality earbuds look no further.

Overall, an excellent entry-level, low price pair of In-Ear Monitors

August 4th, 2012

by V.pic

While Skullcandy has recently begun to improve its product selection for the Audiophile (professional headphones, earbuds, etc.), it still seems to be a bit underappreciated in that community. The 50/50's are an example of entry-level In-Ear buds that are excellent for daily use with out-put systems that aren't professional grade. Their sound-signature has a heavy emphasis on bass, which is a tad stronger than what I'd prefer, but is still done nicely and doesn't detract from the overall composition of sound — which is rich and warm. The price is reasonable, and they would blow the stock-Apple earbuds out of the water any day, all day. One thing I LOVE about them is how long the cord is. I can't tell you how useful that extra length can be in an endless amount of situations. Generous cord length is much, much appreciated. I left out one star for one reason: when the cord moves, there's interference. [When I say 'interference', I don't mean of the electrical kind. What I mean is the sound of the cord fidgeting, or hitting my chest when I am walking reverberates in a way loud enough to sometimes even overpower the audio playing.] But other than that one issue, I'm prettymuch satisfied with this purchase. ッ

Great, but with some cons

August 3rd, 2012

by Jake V

These are great headphones! I'm not sure how they pack so much bass into them, but it works! They handle highs and lows decently. My only concerns is the price and the comfort. The price seems a little high for what you're getting. Also, since I've had them about 5-6 months, the sound quality has gone done a small amount. Also I have been having trouble getting a good seal on them in my ears. They pop out of your ears really easily if you are not paying attention to the cord. Other than that, they are crazy good casual headphones.

I got the 50/50 after trying out the FIX, and they were great and had a extermly nice sound with highs lows and bass.

The sound is extremely great I loved them. Key word LOVED them the jack gave out less than a month and I couldn't hear out of my left ear bud. SkullCandy needs to make that area ALOT more stronger. I'm currently in the lifetime warrenty clam. With all that said I hope they make the jack or wires around that area stronger then I would recommend them. But the sounds was great I give them that.

Excellent choice!

For ear buds, the sound quality is impressive. Clear sound, and good bass too. I carry them all the way around and they seem to be unbreakable. The flat wire makes a difference I guess!

Best Buds I've Owned

July 11th, 2012

by James

I have had Skulcandy's 50/50 earbuds for almost a year now, and they still work just the same as the day I got them. They cancel out a lot of noise just by the fact that they are in-ear phones that seal very well inside your ear. They include three sizes of interchangeable rubberized pads that should fit just about anyone. The bass is amazing. I have never had a pair of earbuds that delivers that much bass, however it still produces a good balance on a range of levels. The Apple earbuds that come with a new iPod sound like a pair of tin cans compared to these. The earbuds never fall out, but they could be a little bit more comfortable. Still, these are WAY more comfortable than your average earbuds. If you are looking for good quality earbuds without paying for something extremely expensive, buy these.

They are not the most comfortable and always fall out but they have great sound quality and are worth the $50. i had mine for a year and after 9 months the volume and bass decreased then they finally went out. When i get my credits i am going to buy another pair.

Skullcandy has proven me wrong...and i'm delighted by that

May 31st, 2012

by Guillermo

So I had a pair of the Smokin' Buds last year. They were okay, but the buds started to go out after about a month, and soon they became useless. HOWEVER......I was looking for some fairly affordable earbuds, and I stumbled across the 50/50's. All I have to say is HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. For such a small product, these guys really deliver. The bass is really thumping, but it doesn't drown out any other parts of the track. Really nothing bad I can say about these earbuds. They're superb, and I will surely be looking into getting more skullcandy products soon.

Awesome; Best In-Ear Headphones I've had

May 31st, 2012

by Alec

Maybe I will say it is a bit over priced online but it really is worth it no matter what. Luckily mine were half off but i would pay double to get one of these. The bass on these are terrific and they don't sound muddy or drown out the highs and mids. The only problem I found is that it wakes a while to get a good fit and seal so the bass can be full potential and they fall out a lot.

BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product

best so far

May 29th, 2012

by Nick Samples

So I bought these back in march after my Titans gave out. First off the sound on these is incredible. Smooth thumping bass. High treble. Perfect sound balance (Supreme Sound). The noise issolation is insane. I had my ipod on minimal vol and it was quiet but I couldn't hear anything else. The flat cord also an incredible addition. It almost never tangles whereas reg cord.. they are pretty durable. So far ive had no problems. These are (in my opinion) better than beats buds for half the price. All in all I would recommend these to anyone.

I was going to get a pair of lurker smokin' Buds, but these look sick, and are most likely a better headphone that the smokin' Buds. The 50/50 were amazing headphones before they redid there entire line of headphones which must mean that these headphones are better than anything if skullcandy kept up with their normal standards.

Love Em, But I Worry

May 23rd, 2012

by Jack M

I love these earbuds. Sound good, feel good, and look good. My main problem is that the bass only really sounds good at a certain point volume-wise, meaning I have to play my music at a fairly loud volume to get the full effect. The construction and durability is another issue. I want them to last, but I'm not sure how solid these are. So, while I love these, I don't want them to give out on me like other earbuds.

BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product

Awesome!

May 21st, 2012

by David Fones

They were my favorite earbuds ever! Mine did break, but that's because I play the drums and when I'm playing along with music sometimes I get to into it and accidently yank them out of my ears and they hit the rim of a drum. I'm gonna get more with my warranty, but I'm disappointed because they got rid of all of the cool colors. I WANT BLU WITH CHROME OR GOLD OR SOMETHING. But other then the lack of awesome colors, these were absolutely amazing! I took them with me everywhere I went! I recommend you buy them!

While I do not own a pair of the 50/50's myself I have sampled them and let me just tell you right off the bat that they are truly a masterpiece. The sound and bass output is amazing and still manages to leave the song complete in all aspects without dropping or reducing different synths or beats. I intend n getting a pair for myself as soon as I can. A bit pricey for in-ear earbuds but I can assure you, you won't be sorry you bought them. I truly beIieve skullcandy has set the standard for earbuds and headphones (except for maybe beats by dr.dre, but who wants to pay 100 bucks for a pair of earbuds that will be stolen the second you lay them down on a bench or something) To sum it all up, get these and you will be blown away by ingenuity. And bass. I can't forget the bass. (P.S for all of you people who got bad earbuds, I'm sorry you got a pair that were ruined. However, that does not mean you should whine on a review just because you are one of the few people who got some dysfunctional earbuds. Either take it out on your pillow or trade the earbuds in for a new pair.)

These are defiantly an awesome ear bud. Now i own a pair of beats studio's, so i hunger for great sound. These are pretty much the same sound, the bass is not over powering, its perfect. the mic with volume adjustment is also great for things like the i pod touch, iphone, and ipod nano gen 6(and yes the gen 6 has the fourth pin, i know cause i own one). also the case is great, conveant size for like your poket or bag. And sice i love to lisen to music i need a great headphone. These all around are one of the best quality ear buds you will ever buy.

These head phones are the best ear buds I have. The first pair I had broke in a way that I got new ones for free. When I sent the head phones in I was amazed by how skullcandy sent updates on the progress of the headphones till their delivery. It was the most organized I have ever been with a company. After I had them for some time I lost one of the gels and had to buy a $10 par to replace them. But after all of that I have been using them nonstop for anything and everything, from plain trips to running. They have the best bass of any headphones I have had before and every thing else just blends in right. Overall, I am very happy with these headphones and I would encourage anyone to buy these headphones.

jack failed

May 2nd, 2012

by Cha

Before i bought the 50/50, i had a an unknown brand in-ear headphones. I tested the quality in sound and the 50/50 was way better. Bass was kicking. I took it for a jog and it did not fall out of ear. However, i've only had the 50/50 for about 2 months and the jack failed on me. My listening device is a phone and i keep it in my pant pocket when listening to my music. I believe this contributed to the failed jack. The wire is flat so it could only bend one way or the other. This product along with all of skullcandy's headphones is not compatible with non-iphones/iproducts(correct me if i'm wrong). What i meant is you could only listen. You cant control volume or talk on the phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy phone and I wish skullcandy could make their headphones compatible with other listening devices besides Apple.
