||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The earbuds performed perfectly. I was able to add them to my phone, tablet, and computer seamlessly. The earbuds had even better noise canceling then the prior ones. The weight and size was a plus as well.

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.

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.

Overall Decent
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The buds seal great against my ear so I hardly use the noise cancelling and the long battery life is a plus. I usually get about 7-8hrs at a low-medium volume with no noise cancellation/ pass through.

Posted .Hello M3tr0d0b3b00min,
We're delighted to hear that the earbuds seal well and that you appreciate the long battery life. It's fantastic that you are getting 7–8 hours of use at a low-medium volume without noise cancellation or pass-through. You can control the noise-cancelling settings via the touch sensor on the left earbud or through the Sony | Headphones Connect app, which allows you to toggle between noise-cancelling modes and ambient sound modes according to your preference. This feature could be particularly beneficial in noisy environments to enhance your listening experience. Thank you for choosing Sony!
