If you’ve recently gotten yourself a new pair of Skullcandy earbuds, then your probably wondering how it works. Since True wireless earbuds operate differently from over-the-ear wireless headphones, the first thing you’re going to need to know is how to charge your device. The process is quite simple; let’s walk you through it.
How To Charge Skullcandy Earbuds
There are two things you will need to charge, the earbuds themselves & the case. The earbuds can only be charged by placing them in the case. Once placed in the case, the earbuds LED’s will turn a solid red, indicating your earbuds are charging; once your earbuds are fully charged, they will automatically stop charging, and the LED light will turn off.
As for the case, it can be charged in two different ways; the first is by plugging in the provided micro-USB charging cable into a PC or power outlet, then plug it into the charging port located in the back of the case.
The second way you can charge your Skullcandy case is via a wireless charger note that a wireless charger will generally charge much slower than using a charging cable; this is often due to heat management when it comes to wireless charging.
To check the battery on your Skullcandy case, all you would need to do is press on the button on the front of the case; this will display 4 LED lights, if all four lights display, this means your case is at 100%, three lights indicate your case is at 75%, two lights indicate 50%, and one light indicates 25% battery is left on your device.
