Our Verdict
Skullcandy Dime True Wireless
JBL Vibe 100TWS True Wireless
The JBL Vibe 100TWS True Wireless are slightly better headphones than the Skullcandy Dime True Wireless. The JBL are more comfortable, have a more neutral default sound profile, which some users may prefer, and have a better noise isolation performance. They also have longer continuous battery life. However, the Skullcandy have a more stable in-ear fit.
