Happy :D July 30, 2010
Saarahh
Well first of all let me tell you whos point of view this is coming from. I'm a 14 year old english girl so whatever i tell you will be from my point. Ok now for the review.
I purchased these and in 4 days they were delivered, i was pretty happy about the speed of the delivery, seeing as it had to be imported from america. The headphones do feel very delicate, but i havent really had any problems with any faults with the actual headset. I would recommend very great care when putting the headphones on your head because most people that complain about their headphones breaking are because they have put tooo much pressure on it and it has snapped. Like plastic tends to.
The sound quality is really good for all types of genre, i do agree there is abit of sound leakage (bare in mind i use my headphones with my ipod touch) im used to having my ipod volume turned up really high but with these headphones, for the good of the public, i can't really, don't really want to get looks walking down the street whilst everybody is hearing exactly what song im listening to and can make out every single lyric.
The design is really good, not tacky at all, just the right amount of pattern and colours. I have the light blue and white lowriders by the way.
Also the wire is doubled which makes it harder for it to get worn out, which has been a very common defect to my previous headphones which were standard in ear ones.
I would definately recommend these to anyone who can manage being delicate with them and is thinking of buying them. Sorry for this review being long i just thought i should cover the fields which i felt most strongly about.

Best pair of headphones I've ever had that are affordable. July 24, 2010
Patch (Lincoln, Lincolnshire, UK)
First of all they look absolutely stunning when you get them. They are a really vivid green. If you want to see their real colour go to skullcandys website. They provide really good sound and fit anything that has a normal headphones socket. Where it says they can be used as potential speakers because they can go to some volume what it actually means is they can go quite loud but never as loud as the quietest speaker on it's maximum. That's the only reason why I have only given four stars. Apart from that they are an absolutely fantastic. When I bought them I was worried they would break after a while because of what other people put in their reviews. But I've had them now for well over two months and there are no faults to report.
As I said at the start it's the best pair of headphones I've had that are affordable.
 suprisingly good! July 22, 2010

I bought this a day ago and this is by far the most suprisingly good headphone i have ever had. The size is just right, i thought that the bigger headphones means better quality and louder sound but this is not true. You get the same performance from this than you do from some of the more expensize sets (skullcandy hush for example).
I would easily recommend this to anyone wanting a great quality headphone, the price is well worth it!
Skullcandy Lowriders July 15, 2010
Mr. Darren Mercer (Salford, Manchester, UK)
The headphones were purchased for my fourteen year old son. He wanted a trend item like kids his age (all his mates had them so....) I did suggest to him to get a more commonly named brand, the usual big, named brands Sony/Philips etc, but no, he wanted these Skullcandy's, whom to be honest I'd never heard off!
I recieved the headphones, with the usual perfect customer satisaftion from Amazon, and he tried them immediately, using his ipod and his Nokia phone. I do have to admit when I listened to them myself, the sound was perfect crystal clear. The build quality was above average and they do seem quite sturdy, but very lightweight. They have now been thrown around the house, dropped on the floor etc (as 14yr olds do) for over a month, and are still in perfect looking and sounding condition. So I would have to recommend these as a good purhase - early days yet I suppose, but so far, so good. For me (over 40) no, I'll stick with my big, heavy, full size, sponge ear, 1980's style. For a teenage kid - In his words - Yes 10/10

If your like me and want an upgrade from EARPHONES, this may involve you! :)
I love music, listen to it for hours each day. After the standard earphones for the apple Ipod started to break and become uncomfortable, I wanted to upgrade. I have a Ipod nano and an IPhone which I use almost 24/7, especially the Iphone for the calls, texts and internet use. After breaking my 3rd or 4th set of Apple standard earphones I then upgraded to expensive Panasonic earphones. Again I began to break them after constant usage and again after the 4th or 5th set I wanted something reliable with great sound. I then began to look into headphones but most prices were putting me off! I then found the Skullcandy brand which for me was well know. This particular item for the 'Lowriders' caught my attention. Cheaper than nearly all headphones I had seen, look great and of a well known Skullcandy origin. I bought them off Amazon and they arrived 3 days after purchase.
Initial impressions were poor :/. They felt 'plasticy', cheap and didn't quite look how I expected them to be on my head. They also seemed to not quite fit right. I was quite disappointed with the appearance and feel of the headphones.
BUT. After some use they grew on me! Where it most matters for sound quality they did their job fine with a noticeable added base and treble effect!
I use them around the house, listening to music just before I go to sleep in bed, going out with friends and listening to music out loud with the Headphones around the neck. Music is surprisingly pure whilst you have them around the neck but the volume limit could be better.
I also found another FANTASTIC use for them. I pluged the headphones into my Samsung TV with the Xbox on. I was BLOWN AWAY with the AMAZING sound quality it produced! I played Forza 3 with a steering wheel setup and you can hear cars coming up behind you, enviroment sounds boosted and the car engine sounds immense! It has a real SIMULATOR SURROUND-SOUND effect. Its BRILLIANT! :D I have also tryed it with the new Call of Duty Game and it has the same effect! You can hear players getting closer out of view, gun shots are loud and 'basey' and it really does the job FANTASTICALLY!!!
Overall the headphones are of fantastic sound quality for the price! I would recommend them for anyone my age looking at the same price range around £[]. However, if you are willing to spend extra I would strongly recommend looking at Sony or bigger branded names for the added quality overall. I hope this helped! :)
