Earbuds Truly Wireless Noise Cancelling. Sony LinkBuds - Black

LinkBuds connect all your worlds perfectly with an open ring design that allows you to hear calls, music and other online content anytime, as well as the ambient sounds around you transparently, feeling nothing on your ear. Small and light with super-fit styling for hours of comfortable wearing, they ensure you’re always connected to your life, so you’ll never miss a thing.

Approximately four grams in weight and extremely small, LinkBuds are a marvel of miniaturization. Unlike conventional earbuds, the protective surface covering the speaker diaphragm is integrated within the housing, saving space.

LinkBuds combine a shape that perfectly matches the human ear with an ergonomic design for a more stable fit. We’ve designed LinkBuds utilizing extensive ear shape data collated since introducing the world’s first in-ear headphones in 1982. See our “How to” video for better wearing and listening.

Enjoy well-balanced, high-quality sound with a clear mid-high range. Our Integrated Processor V1 reproduces all the detail in your music with minimal distortion for an authentic listening experience. A specially designed 12 mm ring driver with high-compliance (low-recoil) diaphragm provides rich, well-balanced sound.

A newly developed ring-type driver unit with the centre of the diaphragm open for audio transparency allows you to clearly hear the sounds around you. So, you’ll hear when someone calls your name during a call and can chat with friends while listening to music.

With precise voice pickup technology with advanced audio signal processing, the person on the other end of the call will hear your voice clearly, even when you are in noisy situations. Our noise reduction algorithm was developed using AI machine learning using more than 500 million voice samples to suppress ambient noise and extract your voice clearly in a wide range of environments.

LinkBuds may be small but that doesn’t mean they’re difficult to use. With Wide Area Tap, you can use double or triple taps in front of either of your ears to control your music playback—so there’s no need to touch the LinkBuds themselves to operate.

Sony and Microsoft have come together to develop technology that helps people better navigate through the world. LinkBuds support the Microsoft Soundscape app.6 The unique integration enables innovative experiences for richer 3D audio-based navigation thanks to the uniquely transparent, open-ear audio design, while sensors embedded in the LinkBuds allow for a true heads-up and hands-free experience.

You can set Speak-to-Chat to automatically pause the music as soon as you speak to someone, so you can hear just ambient sound and conduct a conversation4—handy if you want to keep your headphones on or your hands are full. And once your chat is over, your music starts playing again automatically. This is based on Precise Voice Pickup Technology, with advanced audio signal processing.
