Skullcandy Dime makes true wireless ‘buds affordable

- Overall, the earphones and the case offer a battery life of 12 hours.
- The Dime True Wireless earbuds have an IPX4 rating and use Bluetooth 5.0.
Skullcandy has announced a new pair of super affordable earbuds: the true Skullcandy Dime wireless earbuds. Available for a reasonable price of $ 24.99, these earbuds are aimed at budget-conscious consumers looking for something simple and functional. Don’t let the low price fool you though: they come with premium features like IPX4 water resistance.
The Dime earbuds provide 3.5 hours of playback on a single charge and the case provides an additional 8.5 hours of playtime. Listeners can use the included micro USB cable to charge the case. The case can’t quickly charge the earbuds, but it only takes an hour to complete a full charge cycle. A short lanyard protrudes from the case, making it easy for anyone to chain it to the outside of a bag.
The Skullcandy Dime works via Bluetooth 5.0 and only supports the SBC Bluetooth codec. You will automatically connect to the last used source device, but you cannot connect to two devices at the same time. Listeners can take control of media, calls, and access to intelligent assistants right from the built-in controls. The Skullcandy Dime earbuds are not supported by the Skullcandy app, so the earphones are tied to the standard controls.

Although the stem design is similar to that of Apple AirPods, the earbuds seal against the ear and include a variety of earbuds. A sealed design optimizes fit and sound quality by blocking out background noise. This makes it easier for you to focus on your music. The Dime supports mono listening, and there is a microphone in each earbud for mono phone calls.
The real wireless earbuds from Skullcandy Dime are available in four color variants: dark blue / green, light gray / blue, dark gray and real black. Interested? You can purchase them today for $ 24.99. And yes, that’s a little over a dime, but it’s also cheaper than a 12-part Popeye Chicken family meal.
