Sony LinkBuds Truly Wireless Earbuds, Gray

2025-07-27T20:00:00

Subscription to headphones that I own? That's crazy. Also a lot of connection issues when the app updated, and now headphone don't hold a charge while i. The case possible bad batteries? $180 and they don't even last a whole year plus lots of issues. Love the fit and sound quality is sufficient.

Got them in February, I try to give things time to see if problems can be fixed, but this is it. Don't leave reviews but this is too much. Buds can barely keep connection to my phone when I put it in my pocket, barely keeps connection anyways, constantly says both bids are connected but only plays out of one side, constant distorted sounds, has had what sounds like some chirping alarm go off, and it's time to throw them away. Not worth the exorbitant amount of money. Could've found something better at 5-Below.

I have trouble with noise cancelling ear buds, found these and they work so seamlessly. These buds give all the comfort and functionality as noise cancelling buds without feeling like you're underwater and have to remove one just to hear yourself talk.

Great ear bud. Fits snuggly and sound is acceptable for intended use. I use them whilst cycling so I can stay aware of my surroundings. Unfortunately battery life is dreadful. Barely 3 1/2 hours from fully charged to dead. Will continue to use these on my short rides but stick with my soundcore aerofit, which have astonishing battery life, for my day rides

Only two months I lost the right side piece, have been looking for it. Want to use the left ear piece, but can't because it won't work without the right side.

I've owned these for roughly 4 months and about 3 months in, kept finding that the left ear bud would randomly lose connection here and there. It was momentary until this week it has become permanent. I have no idea why, I have treated this product well. I have tried resetting everything multiple times, turning settings in the app on and off, and you know what? I don't care anymore, I don't have time to fix it and figure out how to get help from this app that seems to just want to sell me on other apps services, with no info on what they even are. This is why Apple wins every time, other companies have no clue what they are doing and sign deals just for some extra cash, it's nonsense. Well, I'm tired of the nonsense and upset I drop 200 bucks on these instead of just buying new airpods. Physically, this product is great, I love the fit and the case, but everything else turned out to be awful.

I read thousands of reviews before buying this product and every single review gave me concerns about it but, ultimately, it was the best thing I have done!

I like everything about these headphones except for the awful battery life. These barely last 2 hours on a full charge. Not even close to the stated time of 5+ hours.

I bought these primarily for running, so the open ear design allows a little ambient noise in which is helpful to hear road traffic, or race marshal instructions, whilst still maintaining excellent sound quality. I have small ears so always struggle with in-ear buds just being too big but these are very small and come with a really big selection of rubber fitment bands to secure into any ear size. I've been using these for over 2 years and never had any connection problems across three different phones. They always connect and always play in sync, without any breakup or distortion.

I really liked the design and case on these open earbuds but I don't know if it's my ear shape or something else but I constantly have to readjust these in my ear for them to stay put no matter what size of the rubber loop I place on the buds. However, easily the worst part(and the reason I decided to return) is the touch controls. I've never had a pair of earbuds with more inconsistent touch controls. I spent multiple weeks hoping I would master the finger positioning and every time I thought I was getting the hang of it I would lose all control and be relegated to relentlessly fingering the earbud to no avail. Sometimes my earlobes would even activate them out of the blue. This really sucks as these earbuds are competitively priced with good sound quality and are so comfortable you can forget their in your ear but I just got worn down over time.

Happy with the experience, great service. Have the link buds back working perfectly.

I bought this pair 2 months back. And it has been reasonably good, performed as what I required. I jogged on the road pavement and want to be aware of the noise in the surrounding and it works well in the aspect. Only the fit was not ideal, somehow the ear bud cannot be secured firmly enough in the ears, it will drop after perspiration of rain, which make the ear buds more slippery.

I bought these as they came with 4 different size fittings which have proved to be invaluable for me They fit well are comfortable and I can wear them for long periods without any discomfort .Tgey charge quickly and it seems to last for hours The charging case is small easy to use and very easy to keep in a pocket or bag My only negative is the noise cancelling which isn't as effective as I would have liked

I have my ear buds approximately two weeks now. I will say they do fit pretty well. I still have a slight issue with the right one not fitting perfectly but to be honest that is most likely my ear's fault and it hasn't popped out yet which is more than I can say for others I have bought. I will say that I have never spent a lot of money on ear buds or headphones before, probably the most I spent was £45 on a pair of headphones, so I cannot compare to the big names but these are by far the best I have bought. Great sound and the noise isolation is brilliant for my commute. They are light and feel comfortable. I would recommend.

Bought a few weeks ago. They fit my ears perfect with the large hooks, great sound, great features especially on the accompanying app. Equaliser etc all function perfectly. Very comfortable to wear and so lightweight you forget they're there. Would recommend them to others after headphones that let your ears breath and allow you to hear without passthrough.

NICE FIT, ONLY ISSUE IS SOUND NOT SO LOUD WHEN ANSWERING CALLS SO CANNOT HEAR TOO CLEARLY. WOULD BE NICE IF GOT AUTO ANSWER FUNCTION WHEN PUT ON EARPIECE.

Expensive, good quality when you are static, try to walk with your phone in your trouser pocket and the sound keeps breaking up, had to move phone to shirt pocket. Did not expect that from this price when £20 earphones work better

The app doesn't provide settings to balance left and right. A lot of time one ear volume is reduced without any reason in my case right ear. Already initialised/reset but still having the same issue .

Small & discreet with awareness of what's around you. Not for all but it caters to a wide range of people. Music plays then an innovative voice cut when someone calls then cleverly plays & resumes your music when your conversation ends.Settings are also great. Call quality good, music & media also great, charging very good especially the quick charge & the charging case very small & handy, fits in any pocket or bag.. The fit is great you hardly know your wearing them until it reminds you you have low battery. Overall another nice edition to the Sony audio line up but with a very clever design.

They feel comfortable and don't keep falling out. With my phone in my back pocket, the left earbud loses connection quite often while walking. They are nice though.

Very comfortable & snug, a different innovative design with a twist. Sound quality good & I definitely like the stop talk feature. Sony quality all the way

I have had these 2 years and I rarely use them anymore. I want to use them more but last year they started having a problem where the left ear bud would drain power in the charge case so I could only reliably use the right one. Now both earbuds have problems. The case and earbuds drain power constantly, so if I want to use them I have to charge the case an hour before I want to use it. Even then, I only get about 10 minutes of use out of the left earbud and about 45 minutes with the right earbud when listening to music If these didn't have the battery issues I would love them. I love the open ear design, the comfort, the microphone quality, but I regret paying almost $200 for them because of all the problems they have given me

About a month of use, the battery is good, stays in your ear with the right tip. For open earbuds the sound and mic quality are great but i would not recommend for noisy environments. Other than rare connexion hicups, i found no other problem with my linkbuds

Bought in February 2022. Battery in right earbud was completely dead (not holding charge) by December 2023. So I sent them to Sony Central Servcie for repair but estimate was more than the cost of a new pair and only has a 30 day warranty. BUT, being able to properly hear sounds around you... nothing else is the same. I really like them. So much so that I have just bought another pair. I hope these last a bit longer.

in my opinion, linkbuds one of the best earbuds that you should consider buying because it has many features and if you still want to hear song while you have conversation or meeting, it's very useful to use cause of no noise cancelling. Linkbuds is very light feels like you didn't wear any earbuds on your ears at all. I hope sony will continue to come out with the new design.

This product was great for about a year until the left earbud just stopped accepting a charge.

It was working well for 8 months. I loved it. However, out of the blue, a strong wind noise appeared on the left bud, it doesn't matter if the noise cancelling feature is on or off. The noise persists. I tried cleaning it, it didn't work. It didn't get wet, not it fell on the floor.
