Overview

Not a bare bones pair of wireless buds, the Skullcandy Sesh ANC XT adds digital active noise cancelling, an adjustable stay-aware mode and built in Tile tracking. The charging case refills the buds several times over, and the app handles EQ and gaming latency.

Extras are what set these apart: Tile finding, a gaming mode and app EQ on top of cancelling and sweat resistance. Driver size and charge figures are thin or inconsistent in the listing, so audio claims rest on the brand.

Who it's for

People who misplace earbuds and want cancelling on the bus get Tile tracking and a long lasting case. Listeners who want every setting on the buds themselves, without an app, will find the controls limited.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Active noise cancelling
  • Adjustable stay-aware mode
  • Tile tracking for lost buds
  • Rapid Charge for short top ups
Cons
  • App needed for most settings
  • Driver size not listed
  • Battery figures differ across listing
  • Tile features need registration

Performance notes

Cancelling uses four microphones to read outside noise and counter it, which helps most with steady sounds like engines and fans. Stay-aware levels set how much of that outside sound is let back in, and Gaming Mode trims delay between video and audio.
