If you are going to compete with people like Sony And Bose for the title of the best ANC headphone, you have to take a game with you, and ideally a bag with a skull on it. And Skullcandy has done exactly that with its new Aviator 900 ANC headphones.
Where Rivals tend to offer a case, Skullcandy went for the more fashionable cross-body bag that is depicted below. And where rivals offer a form of spatial audio, Skullcandy is gone for Thx Spatial Audio with head.
The bag feels like a really useful and practical addition, while it is also a more fashionable option, so it might be a victory.
These are not the first Skullcandy Aviator -headphones: the previous model, relevant in 2010, was something of a hit among celebrities and influencers. This new model takes the same retro -testics, but brings it up -to -date.

These are the most premium headphones in Skullcandy, but we are not told, but they are not priced too expensive: the catalog price is $ 299 / £ 249 / € 299 / approximately AU $ 520.
That brings them into competition with the Sony WH-1000XM5 and the Bose Quietcomfort Headphones -Although they are still less premium priced than the $ 399 / £ 349 of the new ones Sony WH-1000XM6.
We look forward to seeing if they can stand against those headphones when it comes to performance – but when it comes to functions and design, they started well.
