Pleasant sound
comfortable seat
long service life
good app
Active noise cancellation rather weak
The new Sony LinkBuds cut a fine figure in both versions. In addition to the very long battery life, this is due to the good sound quality during phone calls and the great app. Nevertheless, there are problems here and there: Although the Open are pleasantly open, wearing comfort and sound are not always ideal. The Fit scores highly in terms of sound, but the noise cancellation is rather weak.
I would describe the LinkBuds from Sony as standard fare. The headphones work as they should and deliver a decent sound. However, in the now very saturated true wireless market, you can find better products for the same price - both in terms of sound, app and operation.
