This is why I love these real reviews. Flossy unlike other tech reviewers will tell you what kind of audience a product is targeted for instead of being those kind that go "yeah I don't recommend because they're not loud", flossy gives you the honest recommendation for whatever pick you need and I love that

"Not speaking from experience" lol!! Flossy brother i really, really like ur review. Urs are very relatable to us, the average consumer. No fancy editing, thousand dollar graphic design etc, but straight to how using those gadgets in our daily life. If The Rock is the People's Champion, then ur the People's Reviewer! Regards from ur Malaysia's biggest fan!

I picked this up for $128 during the cyber Monday deal. As a student, I like quiet environments when I study, and linkbuds s ANC works very very well. I love the lightweight and compact size. I can wear this all day without hurting my ears. With added multipoint connection, this is my favorite earbud so far.

Let's go Floss!!! I'm working on my video right now but I need to take a quick break so I can watch this video.

Bro, thanks for doing this. It's so hard to purchase stuff online when you have so many opinions. I appreciate your neutral honesty.

Don't want to sound repetitive, but got the ones from last year and because of your video m4 I'm sticking with those. Thank you my brother.

seriously never disappoint when i find a flossy review about something im interested in lately hahahaa~ love the upfront say it liek it is facts and personality and the depth of discussion even for something subjective liek an earbud is nice ot see cheeers!

I’m glad my XM4s are still holding up, I enjoy the GOD tier noise canceling. And when it comes to battery, the XM4s have lasted me almost 10 hours on a single charge (no ANC on or ambient) it’s INCREDIBLE. As a guy working all day, it’s amazing how the XM4s still compete. ESPECIALLY in ANC and battery!!

Great review mate. Mine are arriving in the next couple of hours. Glad they work with just one earbud as I often use them for audiobooks while travelling and prefer just one earbud in.

so early its been only 10 sec the video came out... FLOSS you make my day better!

I liked the idea of the original link buds. Good transparency mode for the office and light weight earbuds. The fit of the original was a deal breaker for me. These seem better but I recently bought the LG tone earbuds after flossy’s video. I’ll rock with those for now.

It's great to see Flossy review Sony products! 👌 💪 It's true, no one wants to pay a lot of money for products that have a cheap felling...

I love ur energy xd, thanks for the review, I just bought them!

I just subscribed bout 3 weeks ago.bro love your style and the videos are very informative 👍

Even if I'm being to cheap to buy the product I still stay to watch the vid. Thanks floss 🤣

Another amazing vid Floss

I got the XM4 thanks to you and I'm still glad I did. Personally, I find the foam tips wore out quickly but getting rubber tips to fit cost almost nothing. The XM5 headphones will be next. Big love from Down Under!

white shoes is sooo adorable 🥰

Awesome video flossy!!!!

My guy!!! I love these damn headphones lol first pair of Sonys that I’m actually keeping ✊🏾

You should make a video showing us what tech you take on a vacation/trip, would be interesting to see what pair of headphones you take of the hundreds you have

What would life be without Floss and his reviews? I don't even wanna know lol

Been waiting for this review - glad he disproved the single bud use myth. Other reviewers also said it couldn't be done and now I can't trust some of these other reviewers.

Jabra elite 7 pro. Same price. Sound great. Side note. Wore my all whites to the gym today. Couldn’t stop humming “I love my white shoes” 🎵🎶. Every time I looked in the mirror. 🤣

I picked these up at TARGET for $129 on sale! Thanks Floss!!

Just found your videos and really like how you do these reviews. I'd love to see your input eventually on the audio technica anc300tw's.

Wonderful review. It is not only to study a par of earbuds. It makes sense when you compare with something we can identify. That way, it they sound worse than the CX PLUS that are 150 €, we know that this is not a good product. Sony, you have to improve. Floss, you don't need to improve. You are the best already!!!!

Thanks for your honest opinion, I've been thinking of purchasing my first pair of earbuds, I might go with these ones, since they are worth around $128 now.

Got the linkbud S (£120) and love them. So are so comfortable and light that I forget that nwearong them. The case is brilliantly small (not having wireless charging isn't an issue for me). Audio quality is excellent. The app is great. The one thing I'd like more would be whxm4 level ANC. They have multipoint now which is handy.

FYI; Sony did add multi-point connections with an update in November.

Loved this review.

I got mine as a gift with Xperia 5 IV, love this phone and this buds, Sony are sick,llove them

I just got multipoint on mine last night! Works perfectly!

Just got these for $158 during prime day. I have the xm4's, buds pro and buds 2 also and these fit wise blow them out of the water. Definitely the small package I was looking for without skimping too much on the hardware/features. If you can get these on sale I highly recommend.

Love to see the best loop around the ear Bluetooth wireless headset.

So I figured out he issue with using each earbud independently. And I know this is going to sound dumb, but trust me this is how it is I've tested it multiple times. So if you have your assistant set to Google assistant or Alexa you can only use whatever earbud is set to bring up your assistant by itself. You can't use the opposite earbud by itself. And I even tried setting both earbuds to use playback controls so that you can technically bring up the assistant with either ear bud but it's still only works in one earbud. The only way to be able to use each earbud independently is to just leave the assistant set to the default assistant in the settings.

Oh floss the ambient mode sounds a bit less robotic when you turn off focus on voice it’ll allow the low frequencies back in and the animation picture will show the car and the people! I hated that about my xm4’s until I realized

Another excellent video! Ty Floss

Msrp is high, but in practice these are already like €170 and they replace the xm3’s which could be had for €99 and around 150 these are great

I appreciate the amount of cat-in-frame time you provided with this video

just got them and I love them. I work in a movie theater and the ANC kills all noise from the projectors(large exhaust fans).

Been waiting for Floss to review these to decide whether or not to buy them. Let's Go!

This Sony review makes me want to buy Senheiser.. Great stuff floss

I cannot say this enough - best reviewer on the platform, PERIOD!

Love these, got them for 150 dollars at black week. I have small ears and the xm4 I had to sell. Could only use them for about 30 min at a time without pain. God tier noice cancellation ain't any help then. I use the sennheiser momentum 3 when i want the best sound and Bose QC 2 for the best noice cancellation but both is a bit to big for me so when I want to listen for longer periods Linkbuds S are my goto buds right now.

I have the MX4 and the link buds and the speak to chat is my favorite feature

@5:36 was not expecting that. Had me dyin

Dope video 👍🏽

you have to turn off the auto play ("Auto Play (Beta).") feature to listen to the buds independently for those who may be having trouble. It wad a tested feature on review units i believe.

I need to upgrade my original galaxy buds and I thought about this one but if floss says they are ok, I’ll wait to see what the googles buds pro bring

well at least Pete was mentioned :p .. i actually like these i had to change the beats fit pro because i have them literallt all day and the beats fit start to hurt about after 2 hours so i went with these for an all day support and so far for this use its great

You're a legend Flossy cheers mate!

What are the ear tips made from on the LinkBuds S?. Flossy Carter, your review vids speaks the truth. That's why i like watching your videos.

So I just found out if you turn off the focus on voice option the ambient sound sounds a lot less robotic. I know this is an older video so nobody will see this but pro tip.

I like the bass and noise canceling on these and the phone quality is amazing the fit is amazing I love em Is very good sound very balanced I was inside a Starbucks and I had these on I couldn’t hear no noise it canceled most noise definitely must buy I’m telling u and about that independent use Floss go into the services thing and disable it and u will be able to use both earbuds independently

Perfect review, light weight and comfortable, not the best sound but good enough.

The best review on yt.

I had to send my XM4s back to Amazon because the charging case died. Decided to go with the Pixel Buds, think they're not too bad.

i have them and they now have 2point connection and i got them for $150 and they can both be used as their own if you go into the service link and turn it off then you can use the right or left by them selfs. i have had em for 2 days and love them! and be aware they are not to crazy comfortable for small ears. they are comfy but for me they aren’t crazy nice. i still use em but ya know it’s gunna take some getting used to. not worth $200 get them on sale!

my phrase of the week: "high transducency". gonna use that every occasion into which I can shoehorn it; will see how many people I know are floss-heads.

Bought the linkbuds s. As usual quality product from Sony

Thanks Floss was considering these but decided on the Momentum 3s rather spend the extra $50 and get it all

Yo Flossy I have spent the last 2 hours watching your reviews for wireless airbeds and I'm both educated and entertained!. I think I'm sold on the Sony LinkBuds S but what is the best HEAVY BASS ear buds? Thanks Bro!!!

25:55 “let me be quiet for 5 seconds”. That’s right up there with “I’m not gonna sing”

Yeah so a bit of a shame on the price, you're right. These are kind of like they could be your everydays but then you might still need some headphones or something when you want to feel that bass slapping against your ear, but for $300 (here in aus) that kind of money is what you pay for your main boys when you don't need a 2nd pair. Looks-wise man these are fucking clean though. I love that matt black look and how it fits right in your ear, if these DIDN'T have the robotic transparency, shit - I'd be all over buying these just for zoom meetings.

Shoes at 2:40 killed me 🤣🥺🐈

I got the Technics AZ60 after watching your top earbuds video. I’ve tried all the major buds and man the technics are absolutely awesome. If money is unlimited I’d go with the B&W PI7, but for the price and size the technics are mind blowing. The only thing I do wish these had is wireless charging

This what I’ve noticed with my wf-1000XM4. you can’t use only the left side if Alexa is enabled but when it’s not enabled in the Sony app then you can. I have an iPhone and I ran Into this issue. Maybe those linkbuds are the same way idk anyways great video flosss💯

Anybody else postpones buying until Flossy drops his review?

You are the man!👊

Lmfao calling him out on the newbie lmfao to damn funny 🤣🤣🤣😅🤣 you are the truth flossy 👊🏾

Good job👍👍

I found myself greeting a friend "hey girlie" 🤣 🤣 Floss you in my head 😆

Flossy i own the beats wireless power beats pro Got then bc you loved them I also bought the beats fit pro Best ear buds by far...bc you loved them I have the sony xm 3...bc you loved them I trust your judgment Will be few years before i buy any more headphones bc i feel i got the best of the 3 kinds that matter

Floss check out the Astell&Kern AK UW100!!! Not a lot of RU-vidrs are reviewing it. They sound amazing

I think that you should test out some audiophile earbuds/headphones like some fiio earbuds because in my opinion they sound great.

Floss please compare these to the Pixel Buds Pro when they come out! I need that comparison from the realest!

I’ve owned everything under the sun TWS-wise and settled on the Beats Fit Pro for everything I need day to day but, because I have two kids under three and still like to watch reviews like this at night and need to hear everything happening in my house, I rock the original LinkBuds in bed. They’re quiet and the sound quality is, as Flossy mentioned, “trash,” but they’re perfectly transparent, serve their purpose flawlessly and are one of my best pickups in recent memory.

FLOSS GANG💪🏾

XM4's for me,and for eartips am using the jabra's eartips. they are fixable too

Yo Floss the Sony cf-700's are pretty good mane!

Another dope review

I just missed white shoes so im here now 😍

Look at white shoes looking mad 😍

Get the Air Pods Pro 2 when they come out 👍🏼

Hey floss, u should check out the headphones from status audio good sound and reasonable prices.

Hey floss are you going to do some more Vlogs while cruising in the beam? They were really good. 🔥🔥

Actually whoever said you can't play out of a single earbud was half right. If you have your assistant set up with the earbuds, then you can only listen to one earbud at a time. The left ear bud I believe, so if you put the left one in the case the right won't play. Weird, but I found this out after I set up Google Assistant then had to look up what the issue was.

#Flossy Carter am your longtime fan of you I know I can't afford or buy non of them and still I enjoy every single of your content bro keep it up am from Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya

I got mine the other day, love them! Best money ever spent and they are much much better than my AirPods Pro.

What a great review!. I have the linkbuds and kind of love them overall but when I’m in a bar and I want to listen to something I can’t hear shit 🤣

On the original Linkbuds case you just need to push the top back when opened and it locks in place.

🤣 🙌 flossy Turing off speak to pause when he's "not singing"

Thanks bro

For the money... repeat for the money. Nothing beats this 18.00 Sounds Peats. No they don't have noise cancel but for the money they're the best buy on the market. I also have the good Sennheisers but for the money....

To be honest I kinda prefer the Whch710n headphones. Earbuds don't do anything for me. Although that being said the WFC500 earbuds do it for me and I highly recommend them. The only downsides to them (aside from losing em) is that there's no ambient sound or noise cancelling on deck.

Before I continue watching the whole video I will say, the Sony link buds s are actually pretty good, coming from someone who is extremely picky with earbuds these are good believe me, if you like bass then these are the ones, you just have to adjust the eq good, that being said, I will warn anyone who likes to blast your music loudly; these are fairly loud but, they get muddy & it seems like all the mids just get pushed forward so much & drown out the bass & that’s probably why some people think it doesn’t have a lot of bass, again just crank it at whatever volume you’ll always be at & adjust the eq

Thanks for sharing 😊😊❤️

Great production as always floss. What are still the kings for the gym?
