The Skullcandy Push Ultra headphones are good for sports and working out. They stay in your ears pretty well, and the silicone they are made of makes them feel solid. They are also rated IP67 for resistance to dust and water, but we don’t test for that. If you need a lot of thump and rumble in your music to keep you going at the gym or on a run, these might not be the best choice for you because they don’t have much bass.
The Push Ultra earbuds come in black, light blue, or neon yellow, and the hook-style earpieces make them more stable. The hooks themselves are flexible and can be easily bent to stay in place on the ear. The IP67 rating of the Push Ultra is great. The 6 means that the earpieces can be exposed to dust, and the 7 means that they are waterproof and can be submerged up to 3.2 feet. Audio from Bluetooth devices doesn’t usually work underwater, but the point is that heavy rain, sweat, or washing under a faucet shouldn’t be a problem.

Where to get Skullcandy Push Ultra True Wireless earbuds?
Each ear has controls that are the same as the other. Both have plus and minus buttons that can be used to change the volume and the track. We don’t like it when these controls are all in one place because it’s too easy to skip a track when you mean to change the volume. On the outside of each ear is a multifunction button. Pressing and holding it turns the headphones on and off. Tapping it controls playback and calls. Three taps bring up your phone’s voice assistant. Two taps and a long hold let you switch between three EQ modes: Movie, Music, and Podcast. Most of the controls are simple and easy to remember, and the buttons work well.
The frequency range of the 12.5mm drivers inside each ear is from 20Hz to 20kHz. Bluetooth 5.0 is used to connect the earbuds. The Skullcandy app for Android and iOS shows which EQ mode the earbuds are in, but strangely, you can’t change it on the screen. You can also set up Find My Earbuds With Tile with the app. Aside from that, the app isn’t very useful, and Skullcandy missed a chance to offer user-adjustable EQ instead of just presets. We also couldn’t find a way to switch between presets within the app.
