The more we've used the Sony LinkBuds S over the past 6 months, the more we've liked them. They might even be better than the WF-1000XM4s in several categories. They've got exceptional comfort, a great price, good noise cancellation, transparency mode, battery life, and more.
We'll walk you through how they sound, how their noise cancellation compares to other earbuds, their transparency mode, how good their mics sound, why they're so comfortable compared to many other earbuds they compete with, how well they work with both Android and iOS and who we think should pick up a pair.

Hey, thanks for deleting my comment. Anyway, I'll say it one more time: these headphones have a very bad price-quality ratio. With Redmi Buds 3 pro, on the other hand, it's the other way around. As far as anc is concerned, they are even better than Sony. With much. Sound quality, not much difference. And all this at a third of the price of Sony headphones. Bye

@dorianpruneda2556 Год назад

when I first got my Sony linkbuds s, I had put them on and didn't take them off once for hours. They were so comfortable and didnt bother me at all. I wasn't even using them I just thought how cool the noise canceling feature was and that when u spoke it would take in ambient sounds so u could hear the people and things around you.

@tamal0167 25 дней назад

backgroud noise when in calls, is very annoying, its a pity because the mic has good noise cancellation but the white noise that appears in calls is really annoying

@logiqalone8249 Год назад

I’ve had these for a couple weeks now and am impressed. They’re comfortable and stay in my ears while I’m working out. The noise cancellation is amazing and the transparency mode works great. I actually like the semi-textured feeling of the case and buds. I’m on the latest update and do not have any problems that some others are having. Also, I’m able to control the volume across all apps from the left earbud. Phone calls work great as well. These are a steal if you get them at $150 or below.

@logiqalone8249 Год назад

@Rana Mustafa Ali they’ve been great. I use them daily and they are my favorite set of earbuds. I have not one single complaint. I still can’t believe how good the noise cancellation is.

Awesome earbuds, I actually fell asleep the first night with in. It was a difficult decision between these and the wf-1000xm4, but ultimately, it came down to size. I am very pleased with the size sound quality and features. I got black. And often miss the case sitting right in front of me it's so small, I'll have to get a red or yellow skin for it, so it's easier to see. I often lay down at the end of the day listening to podcasts or music and asmr for sleep. These are so comfortable you don't really know they are in your ears. At the time of purchase, they were actually $50 more than the wf-1000xm4, but I just knew the size wasn't going to work for my needs. I have small ears and use the smallest tips in the package, I have no problem laying down on either side.

@donclyburn9497 Год назад

nice to hear ...i am happy with my lower tier wf c700's but good to know theres an upgrade path. There are other good brands but sony has comfort, quality tips and exellent connectivity. For sound I would say that the AKG / samsungs are just as good if not a bit better than mid tier sony's but the sony earbuds are more comfortable, has the best tips since oldschool Audio Technica and have way better battery life. either way I'm eyeing these linkbuds to replace my workout buds and to pair with walkman.

There is no control for volume from the buds themselves? Please reply coz I was really planning on buying it this very minute but then I saw your video, so I'm having second thoughts.

@sasropakis Год назад

You can have volume control on the buds but then you have to give up some other controls. For example I have playback controls on the right bud and volume on the left (one tap for volume up and long for down) but then I can't control the ambient sound.

@hapeheh7855 3 месяца назад

hi, did they fix the app, can you change tap control behaviour now? thanks!

@brsrcrotors9112 Год назад

Tried many buds. These tick more boxes than any of them. More importantly the sound quality, when tweaked via the app is to my ears un matched. Bonus is their weigh and fit capability. Sony have really got the silicon tip shape and rigidity spot on. ANC is as good as any I’ve used. All for $200 AUS!! Bargain. I did have a brief issue when activating the ANC.. wind/white noise in the left bud. It went away next day and hasn’t returned. I wear these buds all day for music and work calls. Battery is all day without ANC which I find no issue because the isolation of the buds means noise cancelling is rarely needed . 4.5 Stars from me.

@jub8891 Год назад

i love these headphones because they are so light and the sound quality.. but within about 3 months after barely any use its developed feedback issues in the right earbud... a quick search on the internet and its very common.. im hoping it can be fixed with firmware

@kasper2797 Год назад

The fact that these are ipx4 and can be tweak to sound almost like the xm4 - Makes them a unit for everyday use like: walk/runs in rainy/moist weather, sweat (the Gym, Running, etc..). I highly recommend this pair of earbuds, i love them!

@duke605 Год назад

Except that "marketing" is nothing but lies. Sweat can totally ruin 1 or both buds. Was using mine while working out, felt the sweat cause my right bud to lose grip and lose its airtight seal. Then when I tried to adjust it, it started squealing in my ear (I'm guessing from feedback). When I pulled it out and put it back in, there was a constant blowing sound in that bud while ANC was on. Never went away. I think a bead of sweat got in them and damaged the ANC mic. I have to use the buds with ANC off unless I want to play wind tunnel simulator. Pisses me off cause these are not cheap ear buds. I'm not alone either. On reddit you'll find dozens of people with the same story. Sony has not made a public statement on the issue cause they like their money cows (us) being kept in the dark.

@acerock013 Год назад

i've gone through 2 pairs of XM4's. the first pair had to be replaced becasue when i was trying to put them back into the case, one of the buds fumbled out and a car ran it over. i lost another one the other night because the foam tip came off when i was taking it out of my ear. i hate those foam tips. i could never get a comfortable fit or good seal. it was either a good seal and uncomfortable or bad seal and the bud would eventually fall out. they're great, but looking back i never trully liked them that much. now that i am having to replace them again, i'm not getting a 3rd pair of XM4's, especially since this one is available for cheaper.

@balogh89 Год назад

Hi! I'm eyeing with this earbuds to get as my first TWS pair. One of my requirements are bluetooth multipoint - I want the earbuds to connect to my phone (Samsung S20FE) and my work PC (Win 10) in the same time, so I can switch easily between the two if needed. As far as I understand, the LinkBuds S have multipoint... but what about latency? I know that a bluetooth head/earphone will always have some latency when connected to a PC, but how noticeable is this? Thanks for the answer in advance!

@manleteater1970 Год назад

You shouldn't notice the latency at all. Most bluetooth headphones nowadays have very little latency, even budget ones.

@flyingsquirrel575 Год назад

I’m constantly amazed at how little attention is given to sound quality in these reviews. If they don’t sound good, why own them? Perhaps earbuds should be broken into 2 categories; those for people who care a out music and those who care about bells and whistles.

@IreshSenadeera Год назад

Not everyone has your priorities when it come to tech. I mostly use Earbuds for pod casts / audiobooks and calls, for 6+hrs a day. So comfort and battery life is what's important. Sound quality doesn't really matter alot. I care about transparency mode more than sound quality. When I do listen to music it'll be on my over the ear headphone or Bluetooth speakers. Music isn't the only thing Earbuds are made for. If you truly cared about music, you shouldn't be using earbuds or Bluetooth.

@jjbailey6430 Год назад

If you really care about sound quality, you don’t use earbuds..

@wausjackbauer128 Год назад

@tagg8233 Год назад

It’s subjective. And what more can be said about them than good/bad/better than X/worse than Y? He does that. To know more you would need to test them yourself. I need to know that they sound alright, then after that I don’t care, I’m much more interested in features, as that helps compare to other products when considering buying.

@DarkSide3211 9 месяцев назад

I actually just recently got these buds. I was supposed to get the Jabra Elite 8s but for some reason my dad insisted on checking out Sony's instead. Told him I was interested in the XM5s but unfortunately they were out of stock in the physical store that we visited but the LinkBuds S were in stock. tested them out and I was surprised about the sound quality they had. I initially thought they would be "worse" than the elite 8s and XM5s but the LinkBuds S can stand their ground against them in terms of sound quality. not to mention the amazing ANC sony offers (better than the Jabras' IMO)

My issue was when you do that, you'll loose out on either the ambient sound controls for turning noise cancellation on or off, or playback controls. Ideally, you should be able to do all three functions: playback controls, raise volume up or down by swiping up or down on the buds themselves AND have ambient sound controls with being able to trigger your phone assistant. Apologies if I screwed that up in the video. - Josh

Don't hesitate to send me a link of earbuds that has complete control gestures that can be customized, not too big (small ears), multipoint connection, sounds clean for podcasts, and has a good mic quality for phone calls.

Do you hear some difference between Sony linkbuds s and Google Buds Pro? Noice cancellation and sound quality?

@6MonthsLater Год назад

Noise cancellation to me has been about equal, though id maybe give a slight edge to the linkbuds because their tips go further into your ear canal, giving you a better seal. The Pixel Buds Pro, unlike the previous generation of Pixel Buds, sit a bit further outside your ear canal (at least for me, so it doesn’t feel quite as good of a seal, but their noise cancellation is still very good. For sound, I actually think it’s a bit of a toss up. The Pixel Buds I think their sound is detailed in the highs, and mids sound ok, but I can get the linkbuds to overall sound more full and have better mids and bass(though i can get there by adjusting their EQ). I’m having an issue on my pixel though getting to all settings for the pixel buds pro atm, so I’ll update once i can make sure they’re adjusted correctly. In the meantime, hope that helps! - Josh

Curious as to what the voice quality (wearer) is for phone call - seems the XM4 speech quality is 💩💩 Is the quality on the LinkBuds S better?

Man, it's simple, if these buds had wirelss charging too, then probably most of the people would ditch their top notch product, I dont find it weird and its honestly something thats not really necessary, so I dont even see it as a downside, personally. Thankfully I'm still not lazy enough to compain about having to plug a cable to charge things, nothing it will take like double the time at the very best, since most devices anyways dont go over 10w wireless charging Also uh, I can set the volume woth them, so maybe it was a recent update, like the douple point connection, don't know about that

The sidetone function during phone calls is really annoying... I don't know why Sony could almost make everything else perfect, but fails to offer you ANC for phone calls and even forces you to tolerate the nearby noises during calls.

@tamal0167 25 дней назад

YES to that !

@ZotmundSzele Год назад

now that they have received multi device connectivity support makes everything interesting. No volume controls is a pity, though

@johnqwerty117 Год назад

it has volume control, u have to assign it in the app

@thunderarch5951 Год назад

Bruh you can control volume, means you never even opened the app if you didn't find it, so you used these buds at like 20% of their potential...

@ZotmundSzele Год назад

@@thunderarch5951 Bruh, the video mentioned there were no volume controls. It was a mistake or it came after the video with an update. I know they are good TWS buds. Just chill 🤜🤛

Most serious audio reviewers has these as being better on audio quality than it’s more expensive siblings. Strange to see this channel disagreeing, but it doesn’t seem to care much about soundquality, though.

@VLADICA94KG 8 месяцев назад

Anyone seeing this comment: please don't buy Sony Linkbuds S. I was thinking that they are the great earbuds, based on review, but I have to say it is a piece of crap. Eveyone is saying that micrphone/call quality is top-notch, but it is actually the worst part of the earbuds. Immediately after starting the call, they automatically turn on Sidetone (like an ambient mode) and you can barely hear the other side due to wind/white noise + ambient sound around it. That makes them unsable in any environment except its own quiet room. It is imppossible to use them in train / open office / coffee shops / running...so please stay away from them and buy way better earbuds in the same price range: Nothing Ear 2 or Anker Libert 4 (4 NC) or similar price range Jabra models...

@nephew_ 7 месяцев назад

I have the same issue when I connected them to Windows and tried to use the mic. The white noise was insane.

12 Months later: Firmware 4.0.0 comes along, overcharges your batteries, you no longer can hold a charge lasting more than 5 minutes, and then Sony ghosts you on their warranty.

I don't think these would be for me. I've been waiting for The Soundcore 4 PRO'S but it doesn't look like they'll be coming this year. I've had The 2 PRO'S for almost 3 years and I have enjoyed them tremendously. Excellent Sound Quality. One of the pluses with my Soundcore is that, (when new and beside their sound Quality), is they offered 8 hrs with a single charge, 32 hrs. altogether. And of course, The App 🙂. Thanks so much Josh.
