The Sony LinkBuds S are a cost-effective alternative to the WF-1000XM4 but don’t hit the same levels of ANC and audio performance

Lightweight and comfortable; Decent noise cancellation; Adaptive Sound Control;

Touch controls limitations; Average battery life;

Rich, expressive sound; Impressive noise cancellation for the price; Good comfort levels; Compact, lightweight design;

Average battery life; Mixed call quality performance;

Best earbuds for working out and calls I love them no issues at all I would definitely recommend

These are the best buds I have owned. Their size is perfect, very compact and comfortable. The sound quality is amazing, they managed to produce plenty of bass despite the smaller drivers. The Sony App makes a great set of buds even better. Highly recommended for anyone who wants something similar to the XM4s in a smaller package.

I have had 3 pairs of these the first 2 were popping and crackling then started to whistle it was not pleasant but I found that they are very sensitive to air pressure and need a tight seal they are everything I want from an earphone the sound is great and the speak to chat is perfect for my needs so I tolerate the issues because they are so good

Audio quality a little lacking; Great extra features;

No wireless charging; App needs polish;

Small, light & comfortable; Excellent ANC; Lots of smart features; Balanced sound;

Awkward price; Middling battery life;
