Skullcandy Smokin' Buds True Black

Skullcandy Smokin' Buds S2TAW-R740 are true wireless in-ear earbuds in True Black. They deliver Supreme Sound through 6 mm drivers with a frequency response of 5 Hz to 20 kHz and 104 dB sensitivity. Bluetooth connectivity and an IPX4 rating provide sweat and water resistance for active daily use.

Who they suit and who should look elsewhere

These suit listeners wanting up to 20 hours total battery life with rapid charge giving 2 hours from a 10 minute top-up. Touch controls handle volume, calls, EQ modes and voice assistant. Buyers needing active noise cancellation, multipoint pairing or a transparency mode will not find those features here.

Battery life and rapid charge

The case provides 12 hours of reserve power added to 8 hours in the earbuds for 20 hours total playtime. A 10 minute rapid charge yields 2 hours of listening when time is short. This single figure decides if the endurance matches your routine.

Questions about this item

What comes with the Smokin' Buds S2TAW-R740 and what must I buy separately?

The earbuds include a charging case that adds 12 hours to the 8-hour bud battery, plus eartips for fit. No audio cable or wall charger is included, so a USB power source is needed for recharging.

How do I choose between the Smokin' Buds models listed?

This S2TAW-R740 model gives 20 total hours, IPX4 resistance, three EQ modes (Music, Movie, Podcast) and stick-shaped buds. The Smokin' Buds 360 adds spatial audio, while Dime 3 and Dime Evo use a pea shape and different control layouts.

What does the 104 dB sensitivity mean in daily use?

At 104 dB SPL the drivers produce loud, clear output from low-power Bluetooth sources, so you reach comfortable listening levels without maxing the phone volume. Combined with 16-ohm impedance and passive isolation, detail stays audible in noisy environments.
