Our verdict on each
OneOdio
OneOdio is a budget headphone brand for people who want noise cancelling and long battery life without flagship pricing. Starting at €29.99, it suits listeners who mainly need a dependable pair for daily listening rather than a wide spread of models and formats.
Skullcandy
Skullcandy suits shoppers who want everyday audio under a single brand, with headphones, earbuds, speakers and portable speakers starting at $14.99 and 60 hours of battery on its noise cancelling headphones. The trade-off is a 1 year warranty and support limited to help centre and email.

Pros and cons
OneOdio
Pros
- Battery life of 120 hours ranks at position 3 out of 61 brands, above the category median of 48.5 hours.
- Noise cancelling is part of the standard build, so it is not a paid upgrade on the cheaper models.
- A 2 year warranty places the brand at position 4 out of 56 brands on cover length.
Cons
- Multiroom is not supported, so the headphones stay with a single listener rather than joining a multi speaker setup.
- The listed product type is headphones only, so shoppers after earbuds need HyperX, which covers headphones and earbuds.
- JBL lists headphones, earbuds and speakers in the same category, so a shopper who also wants a soundbar or turntable finds more under a single brand name there.
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
OneOdio
Who it suits
- Listeners who want noise cancelling in the standard build rather than as a paid extra.
- Commuters and studio trainees who want 120 hours of battery in a single pair.

Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone set on earbuds: HyperX covers headphones and earbuds as well as headphones.
- Shoppers who want a single brand for the whole home audio setup, since JBL lists headphones, earbuds and speakers and OneOdio does not offer multiroom.
- Buyers who would rather have wired gaming headsets from $39.99 than wireless over ear headphones.
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.
