Sony has done an excellent job with the design of these earbuds, hitting the mark in terms of aesthetics and innovation. The sleek, modern look makes them stand out, and the build quality feels solid and premium. However, there are a few aspects where the experience could be improved. The earbud tips, while functional, didn’t provide the best fit for me. To achieve the comfort and seal I prefer, I had to invest in aftermarket tips. This added cost and effort could be a consideration for others with similar fit issues. The controls are another area that might require some adjustment. Compared to other Sony LinkBuds, these controls feel slightly more challenging to operate. While they eventually become intuitive with regular use, the initial learning curve might frustrate some users. Overall, these earbuds are a strong contender for anyone looking for stylish and innovative audio gear, but they may require some fine-tuning and patience to deliver their full potential. Read more

I’ve got tiny ears so I don’t have much to say about the “fins” (fitting supporters) because they don’t fit inside MY ear at all BUT, still very comfortable nonetheless. The fitting supporters would fit someone with maybe average to above average sized ears especially when combined with the extra small ear tips included in the box. The charging case opens like a shell which I’m not really a big fun of, much prefer the older model’s case but I do like the dual finish-glossy top and matte bottom. In the case are the designated charging slots for the earbuds along with room for the fins which if you do decide take of the fins, the interior of the case is designed in way that earbuds will still be able to fit inside and charge. Really good design! The sound quality is decent i would say out of the box, but once you utilize the clear bass feature which you can find on the sound connect app, these can sound really good. I put clear bass at +9, lowered the mids by two notches, and bump the highs up 2notches, and for me, that sounds good. Noise cancelling is really good. You can still hear some low frequencies like heavy footsteps and some high frequencies like sirens but they are tuned down very low to the point of ALMOST being non audible. Maybe it’s just me but with anc on that clogged feeling around the eye and noise area is non-existent with these which is great for people who hate that feeling. Ambient mode is impressive. You turn it on and they feel like open earbuds, however the sound does shift once you do so, to more bass and less treble which can be jarring once you turn it off and all the bass goes away and the treble kicks in. This is the same with anc on but even more bass. The ear does readjust after some time though. The tap control feature can very unresponsive at times because they say you should tap in front of the ear or on the earbuds themselves to get it to work, but I find that repeatedly tapping on top of the ear as in the flabby cartilage part, works WAY better. Surprised that’s not how the tap control was advertised. BY FAR my favorite thing on the linkbuds fit is the background music effect within the sound connect app. That “cafe” effect is really really cool. That feature is 5 stars on its own! Overall they are good earbuds with decent sound outside the box, really good anc and impressive ambient mode which is a step up from the previous model. My only cons are that I wish they were smaller so they weren’t so uncomfortable when laying on my side and since they stick out so much for me, they are very noticeable out in public which I don’t like, but maybe that’s just my small ears. Again, that background sound effect feature is amazing! Good job Sony. Read more

Absolutely incredible. I’ve tried multiple earbuds, and nothing comes close to these. Here’s why I didn’t keep the others I tested: Beats Fit Pro – Poor sound quality, uncomfortable, but at least they stayed in. Sony WF-1000XM5 – Fantastic sound, but uncomfortable and occasionally fell out. They stayed put if I shoved them in, but chewing gum or bending over made them slip. Soundcore AeroFit 2 – Interesting concept, but too unconventional. They barely stayed on my ears, and while the sound was decent, they just sat on the outside of my ear rather than feeling secure. These earbuds outshine them all in every way—comfort, fit, and performance. If you are looking for earbuds that sound great, and stay put while being active, look no further. Read more

Returned, the wings were to small for my ears, perhaps with different wing sizes it would work. Beats fitness pro works better for me, the wings are long enough Read more
