The bare-bones Skullcandy Smokin' Buds don't cost much, sound better than their price suggests, and offer enough battery life for most people.

Skullcandy Smokin Buds headphones
The Skullcandy Smokin' Buds earphones come in a wide variety of color combos, and the cloth-covered cable is thick and seems durable. They're affordably priced and offer some compelling extras, such as an inline mic.
The sound quality of the Skullcandy Smokin' Buds is not great, and the earbuds are not particularly comfortable.
Although sound quality isn't the greatest, the Skullcandy Smokin' Buds provide a funky design and some compelling features for the price. They're a solid budget option for music phone owners.

Good true wireless headphones needn't cost hundreds of dollars. If you can live without active noise cancellation, here's a great pair for just $25.
Good sound ; Nice fit ; Very inexpensive
Plasticky ; The touch controls aren’t quite right
Sure, the case has a plasticky feel when folded and you don’t get active noise cancellation. But Skullcandy’s Smokin’ Buds sound better than their price suggests. All that, and they’ll stay in your ears while you work out, too.

For t beat the sound and comfort0, you can't beat the sound and comfort
As with all in-ears, you have something probing a facial orifice. As long as you're cool with this, the Skullcandy buds are cool with probing you
Screw all the fancy stuff; Skullcandy made a great model with simple, straightforward technology. Ink'd delivers clean audio, passive noise reduction, and a full frequency range response.
