Wireless in-ear headphones for daily listening

The Skullcandy Smokin' Buds S2TAW-R740 are true wireless earbuds built for music, calls and podcasts on the move. They use Bluetooth connectivity and a 6 millimetre driver to deliver a 5Hz to 20KHz frequency response. With 16 ohm impedance and 104 decibel sensitivity, they suit commuters, students and anyone wanting cable-free audio without a bulky headband.

Battery life and charging under regular use

The earbuds hold up to 8 hours of playback and the case adds another 12 hours for 20 hours total. A 10 minute rapid charge returns roughly 2 hours of listening when the battery runs low. IPX4 sweat and water resistance means the buds keep working through rain or workouts without performance drops during extended sessions.

Materials, fit and daily durability

Half of the plastic components are certified recyclable and the packaging is fully recyclable. The stick shaped earbuds weigh 68 grams with the case and rely on passive sound isolation for noise reduction. Touch controls on either bud handle volume, tracks, calls, EQ mode switching and voice assistant activation without needing a companion app.
