Perfect noice canceling but does fit well.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these expecting they would fit and perform well. They do provide good clear sound and the noise canceling works really well. I just wished they wouldn’t keep falling out of my ear even after trying all the bud tips. I had to use a special tip from a set of older buds and they ok at the moment but still seems to not fit stable without falling out of my ears.

Posted .Hi SonyBuds, Thanks for sharing your experience with the Sony Linkbuds S. While we're glad to hear that you are impressed with the sound quality and noise canceling feature, we're sad to hear that you have concerns with the fittings. This is definitely not the news that we would like to hear. We understand that finding the perfect fit can vary from person to person. If you've already tried changing the earbud tips to another size and you're still having issues with fit, we suggest trying out third-party earbud tips.
We'll also take this as feedback as it can help us improve in the future.
Regards,
-Craig

Posted .Hi DavisOil2983,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the LinkBuds S. Your feedback about the Bluetooth range is greatly appreciated. Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a range of about 10 m (30 feet). The maximum communication distance may vary depending on the presence of obstacles (people, metal objects, walls, etc.) or the electromagnetic environment. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the earbuds is up-to-date. Hope this helps. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Comfortable, Sound Great, and Easy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds are small and very lightweight. They sound great, although they do not have as great of Noise Cancelling as the WH1000XM4. They are very easy to set up and adjust with the Sony Headphones App. The case and earbuds have a unique texture that is a little weird at first but I got used to it after a few days.

Lightweight with great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LinkBuds S are light and stay in my ears. I'm not a music snob, but these earbuds sound great. They connect quickly and stay connected. A nice bonus is the support of the Sony Headphone app so you can configure the earbuds (noise cancelling, ambient sound settings, etc).

From Good to Bad
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I picked these up in early 2023 and they worked pretty good for what I needed out of them. They were always a little finicky if you swapped out the buds quickly from the case, with them sometimes dropping off and not connecting to Sonys app. Aside from that I thought they were fantastic... That is, until a few weeks ago, I finally had them updated through the app (something I'm always lagging behind on) and now my right earbud can barely make it past 45 minutes of play time. It sounds like this was a common issue after a software update released by Sony in the past year. Before this update I would have said definitely recommend, but I don't think I could recommend them now and I don't think my overall confidence in this product will ever recover. Good: -Small form factor -good sound -durable enough (dropped the left earbud a few times after taking my helmet off) -good price when on sale Bad: -software -battery life (unknown if 100% software or hardware related)
