If you're looking to push your body to the limit (and possibly beyond), you probably need a good pair of robust and lightweight earbuds that can handle the most intense workout sessions known to man. And because gym memberships are not exactly cheap nowadays, it would certainly be nice if you'd be able to get such long-lasting, comfortable, and ideally powerful buds for peanuts.
Incredibly enough, that's precisely the case of the Skullcandy Push Active right now after a 50 percent discount. These bad boys have never been very expensive, originally costing $79.99, so this absolutely huge, completely unprecedented, and presumably unbeatable $40 Amazon markdown makes them virtually irresistible.
Of course, you're not looking at a premium noise-cancelling alternative to the likes of Apple's AirPods Pro 2 or Samsung's Galaxy Buds 2 Pro here, but the battery life alone is undoubtedly impressive enough to propel the Skullcandy Push Active near the top of our list of the best budget wireless earbuds available today.
We're talking an uninterrupted listening time of 10 hours (at least based on the manufacturer's claims), which you can bump all the way up to 44 hours (!!!) with the USB-C charging case included as standard. There's even Rapid Charge functionality to squeeze a cool two hours of playtime from a short 10-minute wall-hugging session, and to ensure your sweat, tears, and blood will not damage the Push Active in any way, the dirt-cheap buds are IP55-rated for water and dust protection.
Another key selling point (and love-it-or-hate-it design element) are the built-in ear hooks guaranteeing a secure fit no matter the usage scenarios and circumstances, although you'll have to decide for yourself just how comfortable these puppies feel during your long outdoor runs and most strenuous indoor workouts.
From an audio performance perspective, you obviously shouldn't expect the world from such ultra-affordable wireless earbuds, even if Skullcandy is boldly promising a "next-level" music listening experience with the help of state-of-the-art Skull-iQ technology. We can probably agree adequate rather than "next-level" sound will do just fine at this crazy low price, and based on what most Amazon shoppers are saying, you'll get precisely that and a set of gym-friendly features like no other. In short, you're looking at a killer value proposition here.
