Thanks to the ring driver unit with an open diaphragm center for sound clarity, you can hear the sounds around you. Thus, you will hear when someone calls you in the middle of a call and you can chat with friends while listening to music. Announcements are heard clearly, even with music, and you can hear ambient sounds more clearly.
With a weight of approximately four grams and small size, the LinkBuds are ergonomic and comfortable to use. Unlike conventional earbuds, the protective surface covering the speaker diaphragm is integrated within the casing, saving space.
LinkBuds combine a shape that fits perfectly in the ear with ergonomic design for a more stable fit. They were designed based on extensive data on ear shape, starting from the world's first in-ear headphones in 1982.
With Precise Voice Pickup technology, the person on the other end of the line will hear your voice clearly, even when you are in a noisy environment. The noise reduction algorithm was developed with AI machine learning using more than 500 million voice samples, to eliminate background noise and clearly extract your voice in a wide range of environments.
Enjoy balanced high-quality sound with clear mid and high frequency ranges. The built-in V1 processor reproduces every detail of your music with minimal distortion for an authentic listening experience. A specially designed 12 mm ring driver unit with a high compliance diaphragm (low recoil) provides rich and balanced sound.
Adaptive volume control is an intelligent feature that automatically optimizes the volume depending on where you are. Enjoy lower volume in quiet places and higher volume in noisier environments.
Set the Speak-to-Chat to automatically pause the music as soon as you speak to someone, so you only hear the ambient sound and can effortlessly conduct a conversation. Useful if you don't want to take off the headphones or if your hands are busy. Once the conversation ends, the music resumes automatically.
LinkBuds use materials from recycled plastic from car parts. The packaging material of LinkBuds does not contain plastic.
The headphones charging lasts 5.5 hours, and you can store another 12 hours in the case - a total of 17.5 hours of music listening, every time you leave the house. The quick 10-minute charge gives up to 90 minutes of playback time, while the Sony Headphones Connect app notifies you even when the charging case drops below 30%.
In the package, you will find 5 sizes of arc-shaped supports that fit different ear shapes, as well as a USB-C charging cable.

With the minimal use I have made so far, they seem extremely comparable to the quality of Sony. Made entirely from recyclable materials. Easy placement in the ear without causing fatigue. Indeed, you wear them and hear the surrounding environment clearly. When you listen to music and start talking, the playback automatically stops for you to converse. By downloading the app, you have endless options for customization. Maybe I would like the maximum sound volume to be slightly higher, but okay, that doesn't pose a problem. I highly recommend it!!
I come back with a quite significant negative, if the mobile is placed in a pocket, unfortunately the connection to the headphones is lost quite often.
When driving a motorcycle, the song changes due to the vibrations and moves on to the next one. If you close them (with a double tap on them) and try to reopen them after a while, just forget it, they need to be put back in their case to be retuned. They constantly fall out of the ear, they are not stable for running, just forget it. With head movements, they constantly get out of sync and one plays one thing and the other plays something else, rarely both together. The sound intensity is very low for their price. Overall, I regret spending my money on them compared to my previous JBL Flash X In-ear headphones.
really one of the worst headphones I have bought.
the fit in the ears simply does not exist, they almost never fit correctly.
they even sent me different ear tips and still nothing, they fall out all the time.
I won't even discuss using them for sports, you look for them on the ground.
for conversation, they are good.
both buds started trembling with the slightest volume on bass after a month. very low volume, no anc . At 120€ every other option is better
It is a unique and interesting product, I don't think there is anything similar in Earbud. Excellent microphone, the speaker does not hear any noise no matter the environment you are in. The sound quality is very satisfactory, not very loud but the purpose is to keep you in reality. The design is comfortable and does not tire, so after a while and because you also hear ambient sound, you forget that you are wearing them. The tap on the ear for stop/start is a nice feature. I would expect a little more battery life before needing to put them back in their case.
If you end a call, in the next one you can't hear or be heard. You have to put them in their case to disconnect and then make a call. The service informed me that they don't have any issue. If I move, they fall off my ears
Starting the review with the acknowledgment that the only comparison that would make sense is with other similar open-type headphones and not with in-ear true wireless (although they resemble the latter more, which is positive since most open wireless headphones are quite bulky).
Positives:
- Comfortable, with silicone rings that adapt to most ears.
- Sound, for what it is. It has decent natural bass, definitely not as good as in-ear headphones, but the sound quality for this type of headphone is at least satisfactory.
- 5.5 hours + 12 hours (in the case), for me personally, the battery is fine.
- Calls: The open back gives you a feeling of hearing the other person more "naturally" (subjective).
- Wide area tap: A catchy feature where you tap near your ear on the cheek instead of the headphone for pause/accept call, etc.
Negatives:
- Volume, especially in outdoor environments. The headphone's volume doesn't cover the city noise, and you feel that if it had 1-2 levels higher, it could cover it.
- App. Most features seem useless except maybe the EQ. Why would I want achievements for how much I use my headphones? Also, the taps are not customizable (at least from what I've searched).
- Connectivity. If you move to another room, there are annoying interruptions in the sound. Not even the JBL 110BT had this issue.
- The tap works one out of two times as it should, so I end up tapping my ear 5-6 times to pause and end up changing the song.
- Price. You lose too many features that you will eventually need (yes, mainly referring to ANC) to have a pair of headphones that "keep you connected to reality" (aka even at 10 volume, you hear every idiot within 500 meters).
Conclusion, if you come from the world of open-back headphones, it is most likely that you will love them. However, if these are your first headphones of this type, keep in mind what you gain and what you lose from this type of headphones and if it is ultimately worth spending so much money when you can get, for example, the Linkbuds S which are more conventional (ANC, Transparency mode, etc.) at a similar price.
Regarding general connectivity issues that have been mentioned, it happened with my pair as well, but after a reset, it worked fine. Instructions here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00276316

I would like a little more volume when I listen to music.... but it's very nice... comfortable... and it's awesome that I can start and stop the music by just speaking... very convenient and you can start again with a light tap in front of the ear... awesome.... I just wish there was a little more volume for the price.... but it's okay... overall, it's amazing.
