Our Verdict

Apple AirPods (2nd generation) Truly Wireless

Skullcandy Indy Fuel Truly Wireless

The Skullcandy Indy Fuel Truly Wireless are better suited for mixed usage than the Apple AirPods (2nd generation) Truly Wireless. The Skullcandy deliver a more consistent listening experience with more accurate bass. They leak much less audio, feel more secure in the ear, and block out substantially more ambient noise. However, the open-back Apple are better built, generate a more spacious listening experience with a better-reproduced treble, feel more comfortable to wear for extended periods, and have a better-integrated mic.
