What we don't like about Skullcandy Riff Wireless 2

  • Build quality feels flimsy and 'plasticky,' with some reports of the headband snapping
  • Lack of padding on the headband can cause discomfort during long sessions
  • Significant audio leakage at higher volumes, which may disturb others
  • Poor passive noise isolation; they do not block out much background noise
  • On-ear size might feel too small for some users or better suited for children
  • The charging cable provided is notably short
  • Microphone can pick up excessive background noise during calls

Verdict

The Skullcandy Riff Wireless 2 is a budget-friendly on-ear headset featuring 40mm dynamic drivers and an impressive 34-hour battery life with rapid charging that provides 4 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge. It utilizes Bluetooth 5.2 for stable connectivity and includes modern features like multipoint pairing, built-in Tile finding technology, and compatibility with the Skullcandy App for EQ customization. Weighing just 153g, its main pros include a lightweight, foldable design for portability, long battery endurance, and a versatile low-latency gaming mode. However, notable cons include a predominantly plastic build that can feel flimsy, the absence of active noise cancellation (ANC), and potential discomfort during long listening sessions due to a lack of headband padding.
