Skullcandy Venue review: Long battery life, quality audio are definitely a thumbs upNov 19 (AZINS) Skullcandy has launched its very first set of wireless headphones with active noise cancellation (ANC). Venue, the flagship offering from Skullcandy will grab your attention at the first glance only.

When it comes to the looks, the earphones definately will impress you. On the left earcup, Venue spots a power button and an ANC toggle. The right earcup has the volume button and a multi-function button which can be used to skip tracks. It could also come handy if a user wants to invoke smart assistants like Cortana and Google Assistant.

The right earcup also carries a 3.5mm headphone jack along with a micro-USB port to charge, however, it would make you wonder, with all things in correct place, the company could have given a USB Type-C port.

Over all, the design does not look clumsy and the buttons don't create fuss. In fact, if you would want to use the headphones, the enough padding on the headband would help you to keep it on without being annoyed.

Coming to the sound quality, Venue possesses a pair of 40mm drivers positioned inside each earcup. During my usage, I found the deep bass quite fantastic which in my opinion did not overshadow the vocals and was quite a treat to the ears. The ANC too worked just fine.

Priced at Rs 18,999, what I love most about the Venue headphones is that, I could connect it with two devices at the same time. Besides, the headphones could be used in wired mode, if the battery drains out.

Talking about the battery life, well, you can't complain about that too! The headphones support fast charging. A 10 minute charge long charge would allow you to use the device for upto 5 hours.

Skullcandy's Venue is among the best options if you would want to buy headphones with ANC feature within Rs 20,000.
