Skullcandy Set USB-C review

Skullcandy positions the Set as an all-day, do-everything wired earbud. The product page lists a USB-C connector, sweat and water resistance, a noise-isolating fit and a microphone with call and track controls. On Skullcandy's own store it averaged 4.3 out of 5 from 482 reviews when we checked, a better showing than the cheaper Jib. The trouble is price. At $33.99, the Set costs more than Belkin's SoundForm, which lists a specific IPX5 rating, 10mm drivers and a 2-year warranty for $19.99. The Set page does not give an IP number, driver size or frequency response, so it is hard to see what the extra money buys beyond the brand. Choose it if you like Skullcandy's styling and want sweat resistance from that brand, but the Belkin covers the same needs for less.
