How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a screen-and-sound starter kit for a young child, choose Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle; if you need noise-cancelling earbuds that survive hard training, choose Skullcandy Push ANC Active. They sit in completely different corners of the tech aisle — one is a first tablet, the other is workout audio — so the honest answer is that the right pick depends entirely on the job you're shopping for.
• Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle — biggest strength: a 7-inch IPS tablet with 32GB storage, 2GB RAM, parental controls, a durable case and wired headphones bundled in one box, aimed at ages 3–12.
• Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle — biggest trade-off: modest internals (Quad-Core Cortex-A100, 2GB RAM) and a small 7-inch screen mean it's a learning and entertainment device, not a general-purpose tablet for older users.
• Skullcandy Push ANC Active — biggest strength: adjustable 4-mic active noise cancelling, an adjustable Stay-Aware mode, IP67 waterproofing and up to 58 hours of total battery life with a 10-minute rapid charge.
• Skullcandy Push ANC Active — biggest trade-off: no headphone jack and an in-ear hanger design built for activity, so it's the wrong tool if you want a shared screen or a wired setup.
• Who each is for: pick the Contixo tablet for a child starting out with apps, videos and supervised learning; pick the Skullcandy earbuds for an adult who wants intense, secure-fit audio at the gym, on the trail or in bad weather.
The Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle is a package deal in the truest sense. You get a 7-inch IPS display, 32GB of storage, 2GB of RAM, a Quad-Core Cortex-A100 processor, and — importantly for parents — a durable case and a pair of wired headphones in the same box. The tablet runs on Wi-Fi (802.11bgn) with a single USB Type-C port, and the battery average life is listed at 10 hours, which is a realistic figure for car rides, flights and quiet afternoons at home.
Who should buy it: a parent or grandparent shopping for a child roughly 3–12 who needs a first tablet for learning apps, supervised videos and travel entertainment, and who wants the accessories handled in one purchase. Who should skip it: anyone wanting a large screen, heavy multitasking, or a device for an older teen or adult. With 2GB of RAM and a 7-inch panel, it's deliberately scoped to young kids. If budget is your deciding factor, check the current price on Amazon before committing.
Skullcandy Push ANC Active: Who It's For
The Skullcandy Push ANC Active is a true-wireless in-ear pair built around movement and noise control. The headline feature is adjustable 4-mic active noise cancelling, paired with an adjustable Stay-Aware mode that lets you dial in how much of the outside world you hear — useful for running near traffic or staying alert in a busy gym. Sound is customizable through the Skullcandy App with Personal Sound by Mimi, adjustable EQ, and switching between ANC and Stay-Aware modes.
Battery is the other big story. Skullcandy lists up to 58 hours total (12 hours in the earbuds plus 46 in the charging case) with ANC off, and roughly 37 hours total with ANC on. Rapid Charge gives you 2 hours of listening from a 10-minute charge — genuinely handy when you're heading out the door. The IP67 rating covers sweat, rain, dust and splashes, and the flexible over-ear hangers are designed to keep the buds seated during hard sessions. Bluetooth 5.3 handles the connection, there's no headphone jack, and controls are touch-based for media.
Who should buy it: an adult who trains, commutes, or works outdoors and wants secure-fit earbuds with real noise cancelling and a big battery reserve. Who should skip it: anyone who prefers wired audio, wants over-ear headphones, or needs a device for a child — the listed age range is adult, and the small in-ear hangers aren't a great fit for young ears. It's also worth checking the current price on Amazon, since earbuds in this class move around.
• Best for a child's first device → Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle. Parental controls, pre-loaded learning apps, a case and headphones, all in one box.
• Best for battery endurance → Skullcandy Push ANC Active. Up to 58 hours total with ANC off, and 10 minutes of charging returns 2 hours of playback.
• Best for noise control → Skullcandy Push ANC Active. Adjustable 4-mic ANC plus an adjustable Stay-Aware mode you can tune in the app.
• Best for durability against weather and sweat → Skullcandy Push ANC Active. IP67 waterproof and sweatproof versus a kids' case designed for drops rather than water.
• Best for shared, supervised screen time → Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle. A 7-inch IPS display with 32GB of storage and a 10-hour battery for travel and home use.
• Best for workouts, running and the gym → Skullcandy Push ANC Active. Over-ear hangers, touch controls and Bluetooth 5.3 with no cable to snag.
• Best for a wired-listening household → Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle. It ships with wired headphones, while the Skullcandy pair has no jack at all.
• Best for an adult buying for themselves → Skullcandy Push ANC Active. The listed age range and feature set are clearly aimed at adult users.
In my opinion, these two aren't really competing — they're answers to different questions. If you're buying for a child, I'd go with the Contixo Kids Tablet Bundle: the parental controls, bundled headphones and protective case solve the practical problems parents actually have, and the 10-hour battery covers real trips. If you're buying audio for yourself and you train or commute, I'd choose the Skullcandy Push ANC Active: adjustable ANC, an IP67 rating and up to 58 hours of total battery make it the more capable pick for active adult use. Pick based on who's using it, not on which one sounds more impressive.
Yes — it's aimed at ages 3–12, with parental controls, pre-loaded educational apps, a durable case and wired headphones included. The 7-inch screen and 2GB of RAM suit light learning apps and videos rather than heavy use.
They're built for exactly that. The IP67 waterproof and sweatproof rating covers rain and heavy sweat, and the flexible over-ear hangers are designed to hold the buds in place during intense activity. Bluetooth 5.3 means no wires to catch.
The Skullcandy Push ANC Active, by a wide margin — up to 58 hours total with ANC off (12 in the earbuds, 46 in the case) and a 10-minute rapid charge for 2 hours of listening. The Contixo tablet lists a 10-hour average battery life per charge.
Yes — the tablet has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is standard on Android-based devices, so the earbuds pair wirelessly. Just note the earbuds have no headphone jack, and the tablet's included wired headphones won't work with a phone that lacks a jack either.
