Posted .Hi JamesK,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the LinkBuds S. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you lost one earbud. Please note that the warranty does not cover the cost of replacing lost or damaged items. The earbuds are pre-set with information that allows them to communicate with and from each other. These settings can only be configured at the authorized service center with all three components present. For this reason, you can't simply replace one missing part. Please reach out to our authorized service center (United Radio Service Inc.) for replacement.

Maybe it's my pair, or maybe it's an issue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these better than the LinkBuds; they stay in my ears. They're good when they work and bad when they don't. I move around a lot (between offices, train rides etc.) and they disconnect/ stutter connection a lot. Maybe it's just the pair I have, I'm not sure. The only reason I haven't returned them is because I haven't had the time.

Noise cancellation DOES NOT WORK!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the ear buds a year ago. I have small ears and they are comfortable. Comes with adjustable size. I recently, accidentally, put both buds in the washer and they both work as I first bought them. The only down side the this ear bud, noise cancellation is not up to my standards. At the most quiet coffee shops, I can hear quiet talk, crumbling up paper. At the library I can hear subtle noise of paper shuffling, chairs moving. Im am looking for a quality noise canceling ear buds. Sony. I would understand if they were loud noises and I would be able to pick up the sound waves. This did not do this for me. I wanted to try something different and I am disappointed. Sound quality is great for gym
