Good
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These feel really comfortable and have good sound quality. The only complaint I have is the customizability of the controls is lacking and sometimes the connection shorts out when I'm watching videos on my laptop. I got them on sale so the price was reasonable, but I don't if buying them full price would be worth it.

Okay but not my favs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hopeful for these but their noise cancelling and sound quality wasn't as good as the airpods pro that i had before them.

Posted .Hi KiraM,
Thanks so much for the feedback. We're really sorry to hear that the LinkBuds S didn't live up to your expectations with their noise canceling and sound quality. That's definitely not the experience we want you to have.
We have a couple of recommendations that might help improve the noise canceling and sound quality for you.
-Try all the different ear tip sizes. The LinkBuds S come with a few different sizes. Getting a good and tight fit is the secret to getting the best noise canceling and sound.
-Use the Sound Connect app. In the app, you can fine-tune the noise canceling to match your surroundings and adjust the equalizer settings to get the sound just the way you like it. Playing around with these settings can often make a big difference.
If you've already tried these steps and you're still not happy with the performance, we suggest to contact our support team at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
We appreciate you giving Sony a chance with this product.
Sincerely,
Estefany
Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have used it at the gym a few times and its working great. The noise cancelling is better than expected, sits in the ear well and is comfortable, and the sound is very clear. Would recommend.

Two features away from perfection
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these after my xm4s died. They are great replacements. Actually like them better for running so light weight. Two main complaints noise cancelling is good but not xm4 good may be due to silicone vs foam tips. Lack of wireless charging can be annoying.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item as Sony has a huge presence in the audio market, however so far this particular product is lacking in high quality sound, almost equivalent to buds from the counter at the local gas station. For the price point this isn't a very good item.

Sony beats
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The fit is great!

Linkbuds S Experience
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had issues with mines on black/gay except no pieces coming out of the rough texture from the speckle dots that scratches the pin area of the charing case and manufacturing defect of scratches in white color around it as well as loose when sitting on the pin inside the case due to rough texture from speckle dots that I can hear when closing lid with earbuds inside or when using finger to push lightly. Lastly, it attracts dust / dandruff and earwax easily. I switched to blue instead and I like the blue color because of the marble swirl on sky blue color that makes it look like earth and iridescent blue mesh covering for mic that looks like ocean glistening under the sun. No issues with blue color unlike black/gray, but wished it had a bit more grip on the blue color and manufacturing defect of white line and dark blue fixed around the buds but it blends n with he blue background and white swirl marble on blue color though..

Was very hesitant at first but 100% worth it !
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was watching a lot of reviews before making this purchase and it came down to the Xm1000 and the link buds. And I leaned more towards these because most comparisons stated it isn’t to much of a difference, just the fact that the XM1000 sounded but I ultimately went with the linkbuds because of the price and the sleek design and these may be the best buds I’ve bought in a while . Battery life is great , hasn’t fell off my ear yet and no real issues so far . I would definitely suggest to buy this !

Sony did it again
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the new Sony earbuds. They are lightweight and super comfy, the case is small enough to tuck in my jean pocket without a noticeable imprint and the sound is impressive. I do wish the battery lasted longer before a charge is needed. Overall, job well done Sony! Can't wait to see what's next.
