Skullcandy Riff Wireless vs Beats Pro (2010)

Analysis:

The Skullcandy Riff Wireless managed to impress reviewers from two reliable and unbiased sources that conduct their own hands-on testing, namely Good Housekeeping and headphonesaddict.com. It performed great in their roundups - it earned the "Best for comfort" title from Good Housekeeping and "Ranked 3 out of 9" from headphonesaddict.com, which makes it a product worthy of consideration.

Moving on to the Beats Pro (2010): it was unable to reach the very top of any roundups from sources that conduct reliable and unbiased testing. Nonetheless, it still managed to impress reviewers from a number of such sites, like CNET, HomeTheaterReview.com, What Hi-Fi?, Laptop Mag, Head-fi, and Tom's Guide, enough for them to include them on those lists.
