Every world. Always on.
LinkBuds connect all your worlds perfectly with an open-ring design that allows you to hear calls, listen to music, play games, and hear other types of online content anytime, all while remaining naturally connected to the ambient sounds around you.
Connected and aware
A newly developed ring-type driver unit with the center of the diaphragm open for audio transparency allows you to clearly hear all of the real-world sounds happening around you.
Wide Area Tap
Even with the small size of LinkBuds, they’re still incredibly easy to operate with Wide Area Tap. With this feature, you can double or triple tap the area in front of either ear to control your music playback. You never even need to touch LinkBuds to operate them.
Adaptive Volume Control
Adaptative Volume control automatically optimizes volume based on your environment. LinkBuds adjusts to lower volume in quieter places and higher volume in noisier situations.
Authentic and natural sound
Our Integrated Processor V1 reproduces all the detail in your music with minimal distortion for an authentic listening experience. Enjoy well-balanced, high-quality sound with a clear mid-high range.
DSEE – Give your favorite music a boost
When an original musical source is compressed our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine faithfully restores music to high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.
Crystal clear calling
Precise Voice Pickup technology optimally controls multiple microphones and performs advanced voice signal processing that allows the person on the other end of calls to hear you clearly, even through noisy surroundings.
360 Spatial Sound Personalizer
With the Sony | 360 Spatial Sound Personalizer, you’ll enjoy a sound experience that’s optimized for you. The app captures and analyses your ear shape, allowing these headphones to create your own personal spatial sound field when paired with BRAVIA XR TVs.¹
Battery life
Use the LinkBuds during your entire workday. With up to 5.5 hours of battery life and a total of 17.5 hours with charging case, you’ll always have your digital world with you. Quick charging gives you 90 minutes of playback after just a 10 minute charge.²

Speak to Chat
With the Speak to Chat feature, the LinkBuds will automatically pause your audio as soon as you speak to someone so you can effectively have a conversation without taking the headphones out and will resume playing your audio.⁵ ⁶
Environmentally Friendly Design
The LinkBuds are packaged with the environment in mind, using recycled plastic materials that come from automobile parts and plastic free packaging that reflects our commitment to reducing the environmental impact of our products.⁷

For low latency and high sound quality even around other interference, the Bluetooth signal is transmitted to both ears at the same time. Thanks to the powerful Integrated Processor V1, you'll enjoy stable, skip-free, wireless sound.
Charging Case
An ultra-small, stylish, rounded charging case design allows the charging case to fit comfortably in your hand and your pocket.
Ideal form factor for always on listening
Ultra-small and light for a fit that stays all day
¹360 Spatial Sound personalizer requires the supplied transmitter (WLA-NS7)] and a BRAVIA XR TV model sold sep.
²Up to 5.5hrs (earbuds) = 12hrs (charging case), total of up to 17.5hrs when using Bluetooth. Actual performance varies based on settings, environmental conditions, and usage. Battery capacity decreases over time and use.
³Protection assured against water splashing from any angle, excluding the sound conduit (sound exit tube), ventilation holes, and microphone holes in the unit (2 locations) of the headphones. The charging case is not water resistant.
⁴Interoperability and compatibility between Bluetooth devices vary.
⁵In rare cases, Speak-to-Chat may unintentionally start up in response to vibrations caused by devices such as electric toothbrushes, electric massagers and electric shavers, and activities such as brushing teeth, coughing or humming.
⁶To deactivate Speak-to-Chat and return to your music immediately, tap either the left or right touch panel. Otherwise, music will resume playing by default 15 seconds after your conversation ends in Speak-to-Chat mode. This timeframe can be customized using the Sony | Headphones Connect app.

They worked.....for a bit
||Posted .Owned for 4 months when reviewed.Only used at work for about 4-5 hrs a day for music. Started at about 730 am and usually lasts until 11. About a 30-45 minute charge gets through the day. Worked great. Could hear people talking and phone calls around work. Have conversations. They are buggy here and there, not registering touch or skipping, but nothing a quick reset back in the case and then out again wouldn't fix. Noticed one earbud was fitting weird one day and I pulled it out of my ear and the small speaker cover was hanging off. Dropped from pocket height maybe 2-3 times in the case.... No damage to earbuds or anything. The little black line of glue is dissolved...either form earwax or cleaning them with alcohol wipes.. either way.. warranty is void because of "physical damage".

Posted .Hi Randy, thank you for choosing and purchasing our product. We're sorry to hear that you have an issue with the touch sensor and physical damage on your SONY unit. Physical damage is not covered by SONY's limited warranty. For touch sensor issue, it is recommended to follow this link:
https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbuds/v1/en/contents/TP1000467224.html?search=sensor
When the headset exterior is dirty, wipe it clean with a soft dry cloth. If the headset is particularly dirty, soak a cloth in diluted neutral detergent, and wring it well before using it to clean the headset. Do not use solvents such as thinner, benzene, or alcohol, as they may damage the finish on the surface of the headset or cause other damages.

Awesome Link-Buds
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.These Sony Link-Buds are so cool in my opinion. They are so light and pretty small in a good way and have a compact little charger case that you can take on the go with you and use it to charge them at some point when needed during the day or night. When you go out is what I’m trying to say. They play great sounding audio. They get loud and have some bass to them. The call clarity is great. I can access Siri very easily with them. They have this cool feature where you can tap your finger on your head right in front of the buds. There are 1 tap, 2 tap. Triple tap functions. Play/pause and volume control. I hear the Audie and can hear everything around me. It is so helpful to me because I don’t feel like I’m missing a knock on the door or a phone call. These Link-Buds are worth the price. They are new and innovative and I like how much they have going on for them for such lightweight and small buds. They also don’t stick out if you ears very much. Sleek design and the fit is sturdy and comfortable. I can shake my head side to side and up and down vigorously and they stay in place. $178 is a lot but once I got them, opened em up and started using them I hadn’t thought about the price until now. I think they are so cool. Very easy to connect also and have an app and can play 360 degree audio.

Uncomfortable, much worse than Samung Buds Live
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I was quite excited to preorder and try these earbuds out, as I am the type of person who likes to hear their surroundings without fully being disconnected/unaware of things going on around them. The moment I opened the box, it was great to see how small the charging case was, but as soon as I opened it and put the buds in, I knew that they weren't for me. I don't have small ears or ears with a weird design, so I would say the experience might be the same for a lot of people, they simply are horrendous with their fit and the need to adjust them constantly. Long term usage, wearing them in your ears, they don't feel as comfortable or secure as most buds. I have the Galaxy Buds Live, and those do a concept that's very similar in practice to these, and they do it much, much better. I had dropouts with music, touch controls wouldn't work, etc. I am a huge Sony fan, but these aren't refined at all for the market. Stay away for now. Get some Galaxy Buds Pros, Lives, Airpods, anything else.

Posted .Hi Shane, While we appreciate your excitement about the WFL900 wireless earbuds, we are sorry about how you felt with them. This is definitely not the experience we want you to have. In the meantime, please check out our help guide link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbuds/v1/en/index.html. On this link you can find instructional videos on how to find the perfect fit for the headphones which will help getting a better comfort. In the same link you can also find troubleshooting steps regarding playback. The LinkBuds may be small but that doesn’t mean they’re difficult to use. With Wide Area Tap, you can use double or triple taps in front of either of your ears to control your music playback—so there’s no need to touch the LinkBuds themselves to operate. To adjust operation of your LinkBuds, tap between the earlobe and the fovea, and from above the auricle to below the earlobe. The headset may not operate correctly due to coughing or when attaching/detaching accessories around the ears. When the headset reacts incorrectly, turn Wide Area Tap off using the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app.
You can visit https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbuds/v1/en/contents/TP1000456614.html for more information.

Disappointed
||Posted .I had seen reviews about these earphones being an amazing alternative to others that have a transparency mode and that they were pretty comfortable, but only found they were the opposite, at least for me. They are uncomfortable, and the earphones have to be placed in your ear at the perfect, impossible to achieve, angle to get the loudest sound, and even then, they don’t sound like a $179 product. The packaging is compact and the earphones are well built, but very light. It’s case is about the size of the original AirPods but use a latch system, rather than magnetic. As for the “open back” part of these earphones, it will always be difficult to hear most things when you’re listening to music at the same time, so it’s pretty counter intuitive IMO, so sure, it works when you’re not listening to anything. Overall, I will be returning these.

Posted .Hi raym, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with the Sony Linkbuds. We are sorry to hear that you these earphones had to be returned due to issues with comfort and design. For comfort we recommend changing the fitting of the supporters to another size to ensure a comfortable and snug fit.

The Ultra-small and light design gives you the ability to listen to music, take calls and game all while still connecting with the world around you and it also has Adaptive Volume Control feature which optimizes sound to your environment. They will raise or lower the volume based on your surroundings.
Hopefully you'll still consider our Sony products in the future. Again, thank you for sharing your feedback. Regards, -Craig

Only ear buds I can wear for hours
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.These are the only in ear buds that I have owned that do not hurt my ears and can wear hours at a time. I have tried ALL the other ones. I like the fact they are NOT noise canceling I like being able to hear around me working outside. The sound from music on these does a great job of drowning out the noise anyways. If you ever had issues wearing in ear ear buds give these a try! I LOVE them!

Posted .Hi Iryna, We're sorry to hear that our WF-L900 did not live up to your expectations and that it had to be returned. This is definitely not the experience we wanted you to have. This could've been resolved by having the right size of earcups as the WF-L900 LinkBuds comes with different sizes of fitting supporter to suit different ear shapes.
For optimum fit, comfort, and to keep the LinkBuds from falling out, we always recommend following the steps on these links:

Great fit "for some" great spacial sound
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I can barely tell these are in mainly due to the lightweight and the way they anchor themselves. I have oddball ears one side i have the short band on other ear long to be comfortable. I have to pry these out to remove them huge contrast from the xm4s i have that feel like their gonna fall out due to weight. The trick with these is getting the buds to "float" in the ear to where pressure is equaled. These are most definately loud...whoever says the opposite must be wearing them wrong. It isnt until i yell loudly than i can hear myself at loud volume to give an idea of the loudness. Sound quality is really good yes they lack bass but highs n mids sound clear. Toying with the eq settings helps. With volume off and these still in hearing is normal theirs really no reason to take them out which is nice. Overall im happy with them though they should have included wireless charging from the xm4s for the price. Also i think these could have really benefitted having a velvet or silicon sleeve covering applied to cushion the plastic from the ear.

Q: QuestionI assume that since they are bluetooth, they will work with iPhones. Is that correct?
Asked by andya41.
- A:Answer Yep, there is an application for it as well where you can customize its EQ and other things. This app exists on both Android and iOS for all Sony ear/headphones. I don’t think the app exists for Mac/PC however, but they will still connect to any device via Bluetooth.
Answered by raym
Q: QuestionWhats the latency on these things? Would using them for video games and movie playback be fine without desynch?
Asked by Chris.
- A:Answer Latency is fine. But I wouldnt recommend for either of those use cases. Maybe audbiles or music while in an environment you need to be able to hear around you.
Answered by MrJoints
Q: QuestionCan you skip, rewind, pause, play all on one earbud?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hi there, Thanks for your question. Yes, the touch control on the LinkBuds let you play, stop, or skip through tracks and adjust the volume. LinkBuds feature a wide tap area, allowing you to control the headset simply by tapping the side of your head! You can use either the left or right unit to perform the following operations. • Play/Pause: Tap the headset or in the area near your ear twice quickly (with an interval of about 0.2 seconds). • Skip to the beginning of the next track: Tap the headset or in the area near your ear 3 times quickly (with an interval of about 0.2 seconds). In addition to tapping around your ear, tap operations are detected when you tap the headset unit. Note: In the factory settings, you cannot adjust the volume on the headset. Adjust the volume on the connected device. If you are unable to adjust the volume on the connected device, install the “Sony | Headphones Connect” smartphone app and adjust the volume in the app or assign the volume adjustment function to the touch control. Regards, Jess

Q: QuestionIs it possible to have the LinkBuds connected to a PC and use them for stereo audio AND a hands-free mic at the same time? Setting my output device to 'Headphones (LinkBuds Stereo)" and input to "Headset (Linkbuds Hands-Free AG Audio)" = echoing.
Asked by Torbit.
- A:Answer Hi VideoconferencingQs, Thanks for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear if the music playback sound quality on your LinkBuds is poor when connected to a computer. Check to make sure the computer is set to output sound through the headphones. If the music playback sound quality is poor, check that the A2DP function which supports music playback connections is enabled in the computer settings. Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) is intended to playback music. The Hands-free Profile (HFP) and Headset Profile (HSP) are intended for voice calls. You will notice a bit of quality difference in the way different devices and software version do this. • When listening to music from a computer on the headset, the sound quality may be poor (e.g., difficult to hear the singer’s voice, etc.) for the first few seconds after a connection is established. This is due to the computer specifications (priority on stable connection at the start of transmission and then switches to priority on sound quality several seconds later) and is not a headset malfunction. If the sound quality does not improve after a few seconds, use the computer to establish an A2DP connection. As for the operations on your computer, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the computer. • When you make a video call on your computer, select calling connections (HFP/HSP) and not music playback connections (A2DP). If you select music playback connections, a video call may not be available. On the speaker settings, select calling connections [Headset (LinkBuds Hands-Free)]. ([Headphones (LinkBuds Stereo)] is for music playback connections.) • Depending on the video calling application you are using, calling connections [Headset (LinkBuds Hands-Free)] or music playback connections [Headphones (LinkBuds Stereo)] may not be selectable on the speaker or microphone settings, and only [LinkBuds] may be displayed. If this is the case, select [LinkBuds]. To isolate and hopefully resolve this issue, please refer to this link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/linkbuds/v1/en/contents/TP1000445760.html If you continue to experience issue, this may be improved by restarting the computer.

Q: QuestionWill these Linkbuds support Bluetooth Audio LE via firmware update like the Linkbuds S will?
Asked by knuckles625.
- A:Answer Thanks for your question, Knuckles625. The LinkBuds S earbuds are ready for LE Audio, a next-generation Bluetooth audio that enables ultra-low latency—ideal for gaming. However, the WF-L900 LinkBuds do not support Bluetooth LE audio. It only supports the following Bluetooth codecs: SBC and LDAC. The LinkBuds features a clearer, more stable Bluetooth signal. Rather than relaying sound from one ear to the other, the Bluetooth signal is transmitted to both ears at the same time for low latency and high sound quality, even around other interference. Thanks to the powerful Integrated Processor V1, you’ll enjoy stable, skip-free, wireless sound.

Q: QuestionWill people near me hear whatever is playing because of the open design (like you can hear the muted sound from headphones if not on your head)? I don't want to feel like I have to keep it on very low volume in office/quiet area.
Asked by GJoy.
- A:Answer No, you’ll be able to clearly hear the environment around you, but there isn’t sound leakage from the buds.
