hey everyone Jimmy with Jim's review room a few days ago I reviewed the Skullcandy ink you might have seen it on the channel very similar design slightly cheaper in price and it was super basic today we're looking at the method Wireless geared towards those who are more sport oriented or those simply wanting water resistance for peace of mind I personally bought this at the retail price of $59 making these one of the cheapest pair of brand-name big-box retailers sport earphones that I've reviewed on the channel what I'll do is I'll place my links in the video description below click on my link and they'll give you the most updated prices as of today so without further ado the channels here to help you make a purchase decision welcome everyone to another going over the physical features first compared with other brand Skullcandy is really stepping up their game in regards to the physical quality and feel and although I met they're not 100% there because they're not a high-end brand which is very much understandable but they usually undercut the competition with retail prices the method Wireless brings a lot of value it regards to its physical build now they are flexible and durable with a rubberized coating for the neck band much better than the awesome with plastic seal the wires are somewhat thin for some but it is adequate and slightly better than the inked earphones the wires can also be tucked away in the neck band itself this shorten the cables which is a nifty feature to have you can also have them go all the way up to help protect the wires a bit more when they are in transport now looking at the inline controller very straightforward there's volume up and down holding either one for three seconds or skip or go back and a song and the middle button is to turn on pair and to answer phone calls the phone calls the end we're very similar with most other headsets with clear audio when speaking but it does pick up background and when noises there's not much noise cancelling from the microphone itself now a double tap on that same button does activate Google Voice Command for your Android devices moving on through the earbuds they are slightly rubberized giving a bit more grip giving it more of a quality feel to them something that I mentioned was lacking on the ink models while wearing this they do stay in the air for running and jogging but one problem I usually find on the over the neck wearing south they do tend to bounce with the method Wireless here I'm happy to say it barely if moved at all while running compared to the competition if you look at the side profile they're built to counter around your neck and some of those down here to how your upper chest or clavicle bone area there's super lightweight not cumbersome and stable during your activities now keep in mind these are supported ear films and Skullcandy promotes these are sweat resistant and with my quick testing of spring water all over these they still function perfectly fine I would of course not get these wet too often but there is some protection nonetheless in regards to comfort there's only two ear tips included and somewhat limiting for people however I did find these small ear tips works perfectly fine for my small ear canals but one thing I did notice though the port designs is quite unique here they're oblong and again they wet in the ear fine but because of this design it causes more noise to leak out and more noise from my surrounding environment to leak in not by much for comparing these back-to-back with other earphones I can tell a slight difference now those who are more active may prefer this for safety reasons while running and trying to hear your surroundings while others may want something more sealed for more immersion into their audio the last up here regarding better lifestyle can is claiming up to nine hours of use like all my audio reviews at 50% volume to get a middle of the ground result I was able to get 11 hours and about thirty minutes worth of use which is not bad at all recharging is done with the supplied microUSB cable and recharging on average takes upwards over two hours to do from a dead battery so last but not least here how is the audio performance right off the bat these are better than the Inked wireless noun say get these over those these do get loud and for sure enough for most people the methods are also not based focused earphones but does offer somewhat of a bass boosted sound signature its punchy and direct for most generous while offering some deep bass for basic tracks it doesn't hit sub bass levels likely $200 power beats and the bass boost sound Center isn't likely jaybird X 3s but it's a slight boost over a balanced or flat signature in my opinion I personally enjoyed it for the mid-range it is clear and direct and thankfully the bass doesn't cause the mids to be muddy but one area I did find lacking just like the inked Wireless left and right audio channels are very much distinguishable that's great but the methods are also lacking that open soundstage that would complement its performance regarding those high notes there is roll-off where you don't hear the high notes to make snares at higher frequencies Sparkle or have much detail but the trade-off it does prevent the earphones from being high-pitched or your ringing wearing these for two hours straight never did I have listening fatigue which is quite common on budget pair of earphones so in the end here I would hand sound get this over the inked models also I would say this is a worthy contender to others on the market despite other brands being on sale for around the same price as the methods here but finish on these how lightweight they are over the others and the sound quality I would say is definitely worth a look if that's your number one priority I'm sure look into the method Wireless so that's it for this review be sure to LIKE and subscribe too help support my
