Skullcandy Aviator 900 ANC Review Praises Battery and Features
The Skullcandy Aviator 900 ANC are large wireless headphones made for people who want to focus on music.
They can block much of the noise around you, such as sounds during travel or daily commutes.
You can also use awareness mode to hear people and your surroundings.
Their battery lasts a very long time, reaching about 60 hours when noise cancelling is off.
The headphones sound especially good with bass-heavy music, pop and hip-hop.
An app lets you change the sound and customise the controls.
They also connect to two devices, offer gaming mode and can start Spotify with one touch.
They are light and comfortable, but their noise cancellation is not as strong as some leading competitors and a few notes may sound muffled.
The Skullcandy Aviator 900 ANC costs ₹39,999, with an introductory price of ₹24,999.
It offers up to 60 hours of battery life without noise cancelling and 40 hours with it enabled.
Active noise cancelling handles commuting and everyday background noise, while awareness mode supports conversations.
The headphones provide good, bass-forward sound, customisable equalisation, THX Spatial Audio and multipoint connectivity.
Creative physical controls, a companion app, Spotify Tap and a built-in display add flexibility, although the headphones use Bluetooth 5.3 and can muffle some notes.
