The collaboration comes in the form of the Skullcandy Dime Evo earbuds that have been given a Peanuts-inspired overhaul that comes in four limited-edition styles to choose from. This includes Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock and Spike, which each come in specially branded charging cases with matching earbuds to boot. The Skullcandy x Peanuts collab embraces the aesthetic of the comic strip, but doesn't skimp when it comes to performance for the earbuds. The headphones thus offer an IPX4 rating, 36-hours of battery life per charge with support for rapid charging, multipoint pairing, Stay-Aware Mode and more.
