Before introducing its new $ 100 Method 360 ANC Yearbods in New York City, Scalcandy new buds “Hiped as the most daring audio product of 2025, a feature of a partnership that you are not coming.” Method 360 ANC is the most daring audio product of the year, but I must have been surprised to find out that Scalcandy Bose joined the Bose’s $ 299 Kotcoomort Ultra Yearbods budget version.

I’m using the 360 ANC method for only one day – they are now available in 5 color options – but I am mostly fascinated by new buds, which sounds better than most earbuds in this price class. From a design point of view, they share many features of the quiet altra earned with the same shape and make the “fit” the fins stabilized, but they are light and lacking more premium endings of those expensive buds and overall feelings. It said, they offer a similar fit – and that means they are quite comfortable and when you set up the buds with ear tips and the right combo on the wings (each of the 3 size is included) are very securely in your ear.
The buds come in 5 color options.
Method 360 ANC has plus and subtraction in the jumbo case
The method is a wonderful difference between the 3600 ANC and Bose’s quiet Comfort Ultra Yearbods, as well as the Step-Down Quiet Yearbods ($ 179), the procedure is the charging case of 360 ANC. It’s big – perhaps for some people too big – and in the case the buds are a bit awkward. Yes, the case still fits in the pocket or can be backpack or clipped in your jacket. However, it is quite beautiful jumbo compared to the most true-wireless year charging cases. There is no wireless charge in it.
On the Plus Side, the case has a distinct Scalaikandi-Ish Vibe and I like it how it opens/turns off the slides and how the O-ring clip is integrated. It also keeps an adequate -size battery that stores an additional 23 hours battery life when the case is fully charged. The buds cancel the words for 9 hours battery life or are rated at 11 hours or 40 hours with the ANC total (including juice) of 32 hours. I have not yet fully tested the buds to confirm these numbers, but they are better if right.
There is a slot for each bud on the opposite side of the case. No wireless charging.
Boss
Skalcandy describes the buds as a “word by bose” that involves both the hardware (a chipset and probably driver) and Acostic digital tuning. I do not know exactly what ingredients are using the buds, but they sound quite similar to Bose’s quiet comforts earbud and have similar glasses, including the cancellation of 4-Mike Hybrid active words.
Like the QC Yearbods, they are equipped with ear-to-name sensors that you take out the buds from your ears and when you put the buds in your ear again, the playback breaks your music when resuming the playback. I also thought touch controls were well applied. They are customized via the Skalcandi-IQ app for iOS and Android, where you can play around with EQ settings to twinkle the sound profile.
Testing the buds on the streets of New York.
Bose earbods and headphones are designed to work well with different music and usually offer smooth, punch words that are very pleasant to listen. Some premium buds give a little more details and precision like the QC earbods of the Bose, but the bus in these Scalcandy buds well kicks well without bombs.
I do not think that the method of 360 ANCs sounds pretty as good as the QC ultra, which has more depth and expansion (they provide a little rich, more detailed noise), but the competition was much closer than I thought. It is also worth mentioning that the method of 360 anCs has been quite loud than any Scalcandy earbods I have tested for years and play the sound better. Before giving the final verdict, I still have to listen to them a little more and compare them to some other earbuds in this price range, but as far as the sound, there is not much to complain for the price.
The best word in Scalcandy is to cancel one pair of earbods
Canceling the word also seems pretty good and when you are in the “Stay-conscious” mode you can adjust the “intensity” of the app with the enclosed sound level that you allowed to enter the buds. Although the word canceled is not part of the Bose program, a public relations representative told me that Bose legitimized their standards. As sound quality, it is not enough until the level of what you get with QC Ultra earbods or even QC earbods, but it is more honorable and more effective than the middle ANC that I tried in previous Scalcandi sound-canseling yerbods.
I considered the voice-coling performance to be something in a mixed bag. In my test on the streets of New York’s noise, a collar told me that they could clearly make me out of the sound of a little background when the other two collars said that my voice was cut and cut and out (I was very difficult to hear). I still have some tests in this region, but there are some questions about the call quality – at least when the collars are listening when it comes (I had no problem with my last hearing callers).

A great value for the moment
I will complete my full review about the earned of the Sculcandi method 360 ANC in the coming days. However, with a few precautions, it is safe to say that these buds seem to be very good value. Note that Scalkandy referred to their $ 100 price tag as an “starter price” and due to the liquid of the tariff situation it may vary over time. However, a Skalcandi representative informed me that the earbods had moved to January in January, so the company was able to get lots of units in the United States before the tariff came into effect. Although there are currently discounts for smartphones, laptops and some other electronics, there is no tariff out for headphones and earbods.
