Sound Quality is Garbled!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, I have to say the truth here is. I've tried several Bluetooth for my job. I will have to say JVC was one of the best and Sony needs to work on their sound quality. These Bluetooth are very comfortable, but the sound quality is very garble.

A+ quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decided to spend on some decent headphones instead of cheaper ones. These were well worth the purchase price. I wear mine when mowing my lawn and I can barely hear the mower when listening to music or a podcast.

Tremendous Value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A fantastic, more comfortable, less expensive alternative to the top of the line Sony 1000xm4 or even the xm5 wireless earbuds. The noise cancelling is passable, or acceptable considering the price point, but the sound quality over all punches well above the other headphones in this range.

A vibe you can really feel
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Sony earbuds are top-notch! The noise-canceling is legit, creating a personal sound haven. When I wear them, it's like feeling the beat deep in my body.

Fantastic Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me start off by saying these are by far the most comforting earbuds I've worn so far straight out of the box! I've had the Galaxy Buds Pro, those were too big and heavy. Had the Airpods Pro, those always felt like they'd fall out. But these are hardly even noticible in my ears. They're small, lightweight, and have a solid fit. As for sound quality, they're the best sounding buds I've tried so far, with good range and balance. The noise cancelling is top notch, which is no surprise from Sony, but the transparency mode is something else. I honestly thought the Airpods Pro transparency was good, but these are even better, its almost like im not even wearing the buds! But, no product is perfect, these are no exception. To be completely honest, the case feels cheap for $200 earbuds. I know they're made of recycled plastic, but you can definitely feel it a little too much. And worst of all in my opinion, there is no bluetooth multipoint. So if you got multiple devices, you'll have to manually reconnect when switching devices. Other than that, they're great!

Posted .Hi FoxyEntity,
Fabulous! We are really thrilled to hear you are satisfied with the exceptional sound quality, small & lightweight for all-day comfort design, fantastic noise canceling & ambient sound features, and superb performance of your new LinkBuds S. Your feedback with the built of the charging case is truly appreciated. For multipoint, we are sorry if these headphones don't support this function. The LinkBuds S can be paired with multiple devices (up to 8)—though it can play audio from only 1 paired device at a time.

First Pair of True Wireless Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are my first pair of true wireless earbuds, and they are really good. I have been hesitant to buy wireless earbuds because of the size and weight, and these are small and light, and they stay in my ears really well. The Noise cancelling and "transparent mode" called ambient mode both work really well. I can use them for about 3 hours and have around 45% of battery using noise cancelling, which I feel is pretty good. The app is also pretty useful, and it has a lot of features that I don't use since I just use them while at work, and I sit at work almost all day. One thing that was concerning that I found a fix for was when I set them up I enabled google assistant, and it ended up draining the right bud way faster than the left, up to 20% sometimes. I turned it off, and now it is within 6% of each other at all times. The case charges the buds pretty quickly, although there are faster options for sure. I know I'll keep an eye on this line of buds, and hope they get a refresh in a year or 2.

Posted .Hi BetterLuckNextTime,
While we're glad you like most of the features, we're sorry that you're having issues with your LinkBuds S and you you feel the battery power does not last long. The rate of battery consumption may vary between the left and right earbuds depending on the settings of various functions and the conditions of use. This is not a malfunction. Also, if you set the some functions (such as the Equalizer, DSEE Extreme, Noise canceling function/Ambient Sound Mode, Speak-to-Chat, Function to launch the voice assist function by your voice, Service Link, and Sound quality mode during Bluetooth playback: Priority on sound quality), the available operating time of the battery becomes short.
If you run these settings at the same time, the available operating time of the battery becomes even shorter. For more information, we do have good information in this link if you feel the available operating time is short, the battery power does not last long: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbudss/v1/en/contents/TP1000541590.html
We regret to hear that the unit had to be returned. We hope that you will shop Sony again in the future.
Thank you for your feedback.
Regards,
Jess
