    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.

      Hi GraysonD,
      Many thanks for the 5-star rating! While we are glad you like the superb sound quality of your LinkBuds S, we're sorry to hear if it does not fit on your ears. Allow us to help make this a better experience. Here are some steps you can try:
      Change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The size of the left and right earbud tips may be different.
      The “Sony | Headphones Connect” app will help you to determine which earbud tips are most suitable for you to achieve the optimal noise cancellation effect.
      Adjust the fit of the headset to your ears.
      Twist the headset unit to slide the earbud tip deep into your ear canal.
      You may refer to this link with illustrations on how to wear the headset properly:

    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.

    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..

    I love these little earbuds! They link effortlessly to different devices, have great sound, and fit perfectly in my ears. I struggle to wear earbuds due to larger, ill-fitting buds. But these little gems are wonderful! Bonus points because they also work wonderfully with my pixel phone, Google tablet, and my Mac work laptop and iMac. I can't say the same for my expensive Jabra earbuds, that don't play nice with zoom or non-mobile devices.
