Pros and cons
Coolblue Belgium
Pros
- You have 30 days to send an order back, which takes the risk out of a big purchase.
- Every product carries 2 years of cover, and an extended warranty is available on top of it.
- Delivery is free on every order, with the threshold at €0, and click and collect is offered for small items.
Cons
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, so there is no live chat in the list.
- The noise cancelling earbuds listed run 8 hours on a charge, well under the 40 median across the products compared here.
- A 30 days return window places Coolblue Belgium at 3 of 80 brands compared, so it is not the longest window in the field.
Skullcandy
Pros
- Headphones, earbuds, speakers and portable speakers all start at $14.99, so nothing in the catalogue needs a premium budget.
- Noise cancelling is offered and the battery reaches 60 hours on that headphone range, above the 48.5 median for this category.
- Gaming headsets cover pc, playstation and xbox, and the gaming products listed are wireless.
Cons
- Cover runs 1 year, placing Skullcandy at 29 of 56 brands on warranty length.
- Support runs on help centre and email only, so written help replaces a phone line or live chat.
- Charger output tops out at 15 W and GaN is not used, so the accessory range suits small top ups rather than laptops.
Who each suits
Coolblue Belgium
Who it suits
- Belgian shoppers filling a whole tech list at once, since computers, phones and audio covers audio, computers, phones, gaming, cameras and appliances in a single place.
- Audio buyers who would rather hear a pair at home, with 30 days to send them back and click and collect if picking up suits better.
- Computer and tablet buyers, since the operating systems covered run Windows, macOS and chromeos.
Who should look elsewhere
- Banggood, if you want a store whose categories are computers, phones and audio and do not include the refurbished line Coolblue Belgium carries.
- JBL, for a single brand audio shop: its categories are audio, gaming and refurbished, so anyone also needing a computer or an appliance has to look elsewhere.
Skullcandy
Who it suits
- Shoppers who want everyday listening gear in one place, covering headphones, earbuds and speakers at entry prices of $14.99.
- Commuters and travellers who want noise cancelling with 60 hours of battery.
- Multi-room households, since multiroom is supported on the speaker side.
Who should look elsewhere
- Soundbar, hi-fi and turntable buyers, since JBL covers headphones, earbuds and speakers while Skullcandy lists headphones, earbuds and speakers.
- Headset specialist shoppers, since HyperX lists headphones and earbuds and CORSAIR lists headphones.

Questions about each
Coolblue Belgium
What does audio cost at Coolblue Belgium?+
Wired earphones are listed from €22.99, which sets the floor for the audio side of the shop. Speakers, soundbars, hi-fi and turntables sit alongside them, and the wider catalogue runs across computers, phones and audio for anyone buying several things in a single order.
How long do I have to return something?+
You have 30 days to return an order, a comfortable window if a product does not fit your setup. That places Coolblue Belgium at 3 among 80 brands compared on this measure, so the window is strong without being the longest on the list.
Skullcandy
How much do Skullcandy headphones and speakers cost at entry?+
Headphones, earbuds, speakers and portable speakers all start at $14.99. That opening figure places Skullcandy at 6 of 64 brands on price, so budget shoppers enter at the cheap end of the list. Costlier models sit above the entry point within the same catalogue.
How long is the Skullcandy warranty?+
Cover runs 1 year, placing Skullcandy at 29 of 56 brands on cover length. That is also the 1 median warranty across brands on the site, so buyers wanting longer protection need retailer extended cover on top.
