The Skullcandy Dime earbuds are IPX4 sweat and water-resistant. To control the music, there are buttons integrated into the rubber stem. You can pause or play the music. While taking calls, attending video calls or listening to music for long hours and playing games such as Battlegrounds Mobile India and Garena Free Fire, we did not feel any discomfort even after using these for long hours. Skullcandy Dime earbuds offer 3.5 hours of music from a single charge and up to 12 hours of the total battery. The earbuds didn't provide a good day-long total battery life but it also didn't take much to get fully charged. The earbuds delivered good and deeper bass and gave a continuous music playback for about three hours without any disturbance. To recharge the Skullcandy Dime earbuds, there’s a small Mini USB cable in the box.
