Manual of product appSKULL
Editorial note
The Approx appSKULL headset stands out for its ease of use thanks to its Plug and Play feature, which allows for quick and hassle-free installation. The audio performance is also of high quality, providing an immersive experience due to its closed acoustic system and a wide frequency range from 20 to 20,000 Hz. However, the allowable power of 0.1 W may limit its effectiveness in noisy environments, which can affect the listening experience. Regarding the design, the model is lightweight and foldable, making it easy to transport. However, some users may find the weight of 284 g slightly heavy during prolonged use. The built-in Boom microphone is convenient for calls and gaming, although its sensitivity of -55 dB may not be sufficient in noisy environments. The headset's compatibility with multiple versions of the Windows operating system ensures smooth usage. However, the in-ear coupling, while providing good sound isolation, may not suit all users, with some preferring a supra-aural design for more comfort. Finally, although the product offers good value for money, the fact that it is wired limits freedom of movement compared to wireless models, which can be a drawback for users on the go.Score details
