Budget Headphones with Surprising Sound & Tough Build Quality for the Price
The sound quality of these headphones was so surprising to me for that price tag. I had never heard a pair sound this clear at this price and am very impressed. I was just looking for a cheap pair of earbuds to beat on during yard work and easy to slip into the bag to bring anywhere and these have passed my expectations for sure. They sound like they’d be at least double the price, so they really punch above their weight!These have been very durable, have had them for 20 months now with no issues. The only connectivity issue I can think of is if I take the two buds out of the case at different times (like 2 seconds or more apart from each other), the second bud I take out will sometimes not connect. Only happens maybe 1 in 10 times for that specific scenario. A simple fix of just putting them both back in the case and taking them back out together will get them both working.Battery life is great and the case charges quickly. Haven’t timed any of it, but I’ve never had the buds die before putting them back in the case and I go a long time without having to recharge the case.

Great buy!
Great sound! Took a bit to figure out which piece fit my ear best, but after a couple wears, I've found the perfect fit so they don't fall out. Charge lasts a good amount of time. No complaints.

Solid headphones with a few annoyances that you'll need to learn to work around.
Been meaning to write this review for a while. Decided to finally do it because I actually would like a second pair, and I noticed all the 1-star reviews coming through. If you're looking for complaints, please look at section #7.I have owned these headphones for about a year in the Mint Green variant. Since they were purchased in 2021, I cannot speak to the quality of newer units incase manufacturing has changed since then.1. Skullcandy as a brand.I have loved Skullcandy since I first saw them on the shelves. They have a designer feel, while still being within the general consumer price range and delivering adequate quality. One of my biggest pet peeves with them as a company has been product lifespan, as their wired headphones always seemed very fragile. Figured I'd take a chance on the wireless, and this is my first time owning bluetooth headphones.2. DesignThese look and feel awesome. I'll get into the flaws at the bottom, but the things fit great and look great. The case and earbuds are quality; the plastic doesn't feel cheap; the case hinges are great; the fit in the ears is fine (and you obviously get the different bud dampers and earpiece fittings that you'll keep but never use). Case is a bit scuffed, and the shine has worn off, but they've suffered a year of being in my bookbag - so this is completely understandable.3. Sound QualityI am not an audiophile, so I can't give you a full breakdown on how they "actually" sound. Quality has been great for music and podcasts, so nothing to complain about here. Heavy on the mids, but range feels dynamic enough. Provides 3 preset EQs that can be accessed through a triple-tap (Music, Podcast, Movie).4. Noise CancellationI'm getting older, so maybe it's me. But these are really great at blocking out ambient noise. Even with nothing playing, if someone is speaking to me, I have to remove 1 earbud at least in order to have a conversation. The provided "Ambient Mode" is a nice to "cancel the cancellation" though you lose audio quality.5. BatteryI get about 8 hours of listening out of these which is very close to a full workday for me. Most of the time I get through the entire workday, sometimes I don't and have to wait for a charge. As of the time of writing, the case holds enough "juice" to hold about 4-5 full charges (represented as lights on the case). I think this was higher when I initially purchased the headphones, but I could be mistaken. I have just noticed that I'm charging the case more often recently.6. ChargingThis is the part that I'm confused about. I have no clue how these things charge as fast as they do. I KNOW it has to break some safety law. A completely dead earbud can go from 0% to ~90% in about 10 minutes of charging time. 10 minutes for 7 hours of listening? No idea how.7. Design Flaws and Connectivity IssuesNow onto the main part of the review. I will try to be thorough, though I may miss some points.7.0 Bluetooth is a bad protocolMost consumers are familiar Bluetooth. It's this weird "thing" that exists, that we use sometimes, but not all the time. Let's go ahead and get this out of the way; Bluetooth and dependable connectivity are mutually exclusive concepts. The standard is out of control, it's hard to find whitepapers on, and has many different flavors. This means that every implementation of Bluetooth is different and it's never consistent. The Indy Evo has its own weird implementation, that can be frustrating if you don't know the patterns or how to recognize what's going on.7.1 General ConnectivityThere's a weird bug that happens under certain conditions where the headphones will become disconnected from the device (you'll notice this by the video/song pausing on your device). After about 5 seconds you'll hear "Reconnected" announced via the headphone and whatever you were listening to will be at a different volume than it was when the initial disconnect happened. I'd almost chalk this up to being an Android issue though, as it NEVER happens while I'm at work (with no internet connection) and ALWAYS happens while I'm at home (where Android can do whatever it wants in the background).It's annoying, but I recognize it happening at this point, so I know how to deal with it. I'm pretty sure this is Android restarting the Bluetooth service, as it seems to happen more often when my phone is running low on storage.7.2 Case Dying vs Removing HeadphonesThis is one that messed me up for a bit and I'm not sure that it's a solvable problem. When you remove the earbuds from the case, it signals to the earbuds to turn on and to take precedence for any device (this is a Bluetooth thing as far as I can tell). So what happens when your charging case runs out of juice? That's right, the earbuds turn on. This means if I'm driving (and my phone is connected through my car) and my earbuds are in my bookbag in the backseat, I lost audio in my car (because the headphones say "Hey, I'll play that"). Now, luckily, my car can take precedence back by changing the volume from my steering wheel, which tells my phone "Hey, I'm the device in charge" and then the sound is passed back to my car's system.This is a weird thing the first time you encounter it though, but I'm not sure what the solution is.7.3 Hinge magnet strengthAll our ears are different. Sometimes you'll need to position the earpiece in a way that is not form-fitting for the case. Unfortunately, this can lead to the charging case not COMPLETELY closing, so after the initial closing (at this point you think your headphones are charging) it may get to a point where one (or neither) of the headphones are charging. They could fix this by making the case "fatter/wider" and making the earpiece reservoirs larger. There's a tradeoff here though between how "flat" you make the carrying case and how forgiving it is.7.4 Earbuds disconnecting from one anotherThis is what most complaints are about. I can guarantee you. I have found that this ONLY HAPPENS when I fall asleep wearing one of the earbuds. I have tried to emulate it, but it only seems to happen in my sleep.I only keep 1 earbud in when I'm sleeping (side sleeper).MY GUESS, is that I am rolling onto the headphone in my sleep, throwing it through the pairing cycle mode, and this is disconnecting them. It has literally never happened while I have been awake/using the earbuds.(Quickly the "Re-Pairing Cycle is:)1. Disconnect BOTH earbuds through the phone/device.2. Turn off Bluetooth on the device.3. Power off left and right ear bud.4. ONE AT A TIME. Place AND HOLD your finger on the ear bud so that you see it go through each cycle. (On, Pairing, Off). Do this for left and right. NOT AT THE SAME TIME.5. Place and hold your finger on the earbuds so that they turn on at relatively the same time.6. You should see 3 blue flashes on each earbud. Almost like a SYN-ACK back and forth.7. After the third flash, you'll see them both flash blue at the same time and then the left earbud will go into "Pairing Mode".8. At this point, turn your bluetooth back on and accept BOTH requests to pair.You'll get pretty good at this after a while.7.5 Right earbud acts as the "driver"The left and right earbud are NOT equivalent. If you get out of range of the right earbud, you will start hearing connectivity issues. However, once you are completely out of range, the left takes over as the driver and quality is fine. This leads me to think that left and right have different profiles (and 7.1 may be an issue of left/right passing off to one another).All-in-all good headphones. I like em and I'm buying another pair. Thanks for reading my thesis.

THEY SURVIVED!
I had forgotten that I left my Indy Evos in my pants pocket, and they unfortunately got washed. However, they were still charged and worked perfectly when I took them out of the dryer. I have always had good luck.with Skullcandy products, but this level of toughness was beyond impressive.

It's ok
I bought these thinking they were the Andy ANC Model, which I've had for YEARS now but I lost one of the earbuds and those were great earbudsPros:- they seem comparable to the ANC in build quality- they feel nice in the ear- they look coolCons:- Audio is just ok, it serves its purpose but it sounds slightly weak and the base mixing isn't great- in order to get a good mix I recommend downloading the skull candy app and setting the mix to the "movie" setting, it seems to sound better but it still does have a slight washed out quality
