WIRELESS GAMING TUNED TO YOU. PLYR Wireless combines our top gaming features with Bluetooth 5.2 for the ultimate wireless gaming experience. Advanced features like Enhanced Sound Perception, game/chat mix, custom EQs and sidetone can be accessed through the Skull-HQ App. Streamers can use the included cable to connect to their PC or console, then tap into their favorite streaming platform via Bluetooth.
The Skullcandy PLYR is a wireless gaming headset that balances comfort, solid sound, and long battery life for its price. It works well for gaming, music, and movies, though it lacks active noise cancellation and requires a separate transmitter for multi-platform wireless use. Its 50mm drivers and Bluetooth 5.2 with multipoint make it a capable all-rounder for casual and competitive play.

7:35The reviewer used the Skullcandy PLYR Wireless for about three weeks and found them to be solid gaming headphones with good sound, a comfortable fit, and strong battery life, especially at sale prices. However, they noted the need to buy a separate dongle for low-latency wireless gaming on consoles/PC as a significant drawback, and mentioned the lack of premium features like ANC or 360° spatial audio. Overall, they recommend them for gaming and casual listening, but caution about the extra cost for wireless gaming.
