Our take on the Skullcandy Riff 2 On-Ear Wireless Headphones

The Skullcandy Riff 2 is a budget on-ear wireless headphone with 40 mm drivers, Bluetooth, and up to 34 hours of battery life. It charges fast: 10 minutes of charging gives about 4 hours of playback. It has no active noise cancellation, but it does have a built-in microphone and Tile finding technology for locating the headphones. At $28.99 at eBay as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent price range, well below its typical selling price.

Questions and answers

Is the Skullcandy Riff 2 worth it?
At around $29 it is a strong budget pick if you want long battery life and wireless convenience. Skip it if you need noise cancellation or a workout-ready headphone.
Does the Riff 2 have noise cancellation?
No. It only has passive isolation from the on-ear cups, so it will not block out engine noise or chatter the way ANC headphones do.
How long does the battery last and how fast does it charge?
Skullcandy rates it at up to 34 hours of playback. A 10-minute rapid charge gives about 4 hours of listening.
Can I use the Riff 2 for workouts or in the rain?
No. It has an IPX0 rating, meaning no water protection, so sweat and rain can damage it.
What is the Tile feature for?
The built-in Tile technology lets you locate the headphones through the Tile app if you misplace them.
Is the Riff 2 good for gaming and video?
It has a low latency audio mode through the Skullcandy app, which helps keep audio in sync with video. It is fine for casual gaming, not competitive play.
