    I really like the slim and compact apperance and feel. The audio quality is really good too, consider its size. The issue is if you use it for phone calls the mic quality is very poor. This may be due to its small size.

      Hi Kris01,

      Fantastic! We are so happy that you are satisfied with your purchase! We are also delighted that you are enjoying the amazing sound quality of our LinkBuds S. We truly appreciate your feedback with wireless charging. A rechargeable battery is built into the charging case. If you charge the charging case in advance, it can charge the LinkBuds S wirelessly. Unfortunately, the supplied case doesn't support wireless chargers. Charging is supported by using a personal computer with a standard USB port or a commercially available USB AC adaptor capable of supplying an output current of 0.5 A (500 mA) or more.

      With LinkBuds S, you’re always connected to your everyday worlds. Ultra-small and light, they can be worn comfortably around the clock, keeping you in touch with people and places. LinkBuds S switches automatically to optimized ambient sound or high-quality noise canceling for listening without distractions.

      Thank you for recommending our WF-LS900N LinkBuds S and for choosing Sony!

    Bose did a good job with noise control, however, base in the price, I expected pretty much same features a IPods pro (remote sound when I lost them, app to find them by BT, gps location). Good product, below my expectations

      Hi RahulG,

      Thank you for the review and we're sorry to hear what happened with the battery of the headphones. The issue may have been caused by a temporary malfunction with the earbuds. To isolate the issue, reset the headphones and try again. Here's the link on how to.

      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbudss/v1/en/contents/TP1000541613.html

      If resetting does not work, initialize the headphones to restore factory settings

    Not So Great, Get Only On Sale

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After a year of using can say without a doubt, decent earbuds that should probably only be bought for less with how worse they get the longer you have them. The battery holds way less of a charge than it did new, like 60% now. They constantly disconnect. Samsung updates can just end up breaking them. I still like them, but they aren't worth the price. Only buy it when on sale and get a second pair or backups a few months later cause they will start becoming a problem.
