Serious Noise cutting Buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hello is anybody in here? Noise-canceling supreme. These are a premium product for cutting noise. I am a bit disappointed with the sound quality. Even with the settings in the Sony software, they could have better spatial sounding. Don't get me wrong they hit hard but I expect better from Sony Sound. It is there in the LinkBuds S so what happened here? Also, I feel the LinkBuds S are better fitting. You have to play with the ear tips to get a good comfortable fit. Sometimes I feel like they will fall out but that has not happened. No ear fatigue either.

Sony made the best earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best earbuds that I have owned. Very impressed with noise canceling and clarity. I was at the gym and they were pumping music. I got a call and I answered the phone. The earbuds quickly switched to the call and had a quick conversation and then hung up. Noise canceling worked so good the caller never heard the music playing in the gym. Walking on a windy day down a sidewalk and had a conversation on the phone without any trouble. Different style music play well anywhere. Music automatically stops when responding to someone in a conversation is amazing. If you're listening to music the music stops and you can begin to have a conversation. Once the earbuds know you have stopped talking then the music will begin to play. I really like this feature.

Great sound and Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these earbuds but I hate the material the tips are made from they aren't comfortable or durable.

Nice earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed some good-quality noise-canceling headphones and got these. So far, they've delivered. Sound great, and the noise canceling is also great. Sometimes I just put them in just for the sake of dampening loud noise and they get the job done.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound, good pairing and features but may not fit all ears.

Best sounding ANC earbuds for the price

Awesome charge and sound profile.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stellar battery life and great audio control and noise cancelling. Use these at work and had to work a 20 hour shift. Earbuds shockingly made it through 14 hours straight of use. Best earbuds I've owned for on-the-go.
