Awesome, but go for the white or black ones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great earbuds, sound is good and connection is better than other options. I preferred the whites ones though. The sand ones look too much like hearing aids with the size.

Worked until they didn't
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm coming up on 2 years of ownership. The first 1.5 were great, had no issues with them. The sound was good enough and they were better at noise canceling than my over ear headphones so great on flights to drown out engine noise. But starting a few months ago, the left earbud has a battery life of about 8 minutes and the right gets about 25. For the money, frustrating to not get 2 years out of a product.

Great earbuds, but won't last long on one charge
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These pair of earbuds are very good. They fit well in your ears and don't come out easily. They are small and lightweight you barely feel them in your ears. You can sleep with them on and you won't feel uncomfortable or have sore ears. They sound good, they do lack a bit of base. One bad thing about them, they last about 4 1/2 hours on a single charge after that you charge them in the case

LinkBuds S
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second unit. The first one broke after 9 months. I use it every day for work. It is very comfortable to wear 6-7 hours per day. Overall, I am happy with the performance. Audio canceling and audio quality are not top-notch in the market but I am willing to sacrifice those for comfort and easy wearability.

Amazing sound just need a bit more noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved these buds from Sony. They are not that great for Noise canceling like their big brother the WF-1000XM5 but they will remove some unwanted sound. The sound quality is where they shine for my taste. The WF-1000XM5 does have better quality but the spatial sound on these just hit differently. I said I loved these because they are not water resistant and neither is the case. I made a mistake and dropped them outside in some water and could not recover them. So sad.

Very Impressed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was very impressed with these true wireless earbuds. They sound great, and the touch controls are extremely convenient and useful. The only issue I have with these is that, at times, they have pauses in audio. I'm not sure if it is a connection issue or what, but it is a bit annoying. Other than that, these are great earbuds.
