Some people complained about Sony and the complicated names they use with letters and numbers. (It's actually quite simple and makes sense if one understands what the letters and numbers mean). Now they've changed the names but it's made it even more confusing. 😂
I wasn't going to buy these because all my Sony earbuds case stop charging the earbuds after a year, the buds are constantly charging running down the case battery and when I take them out they are always hot and are only 30%-40% charged, and the case also goes into red blinking mode whenever I'm recharging the case and buds, I had to get both my XM5 and link buds S replaced because of that, but now that I see how well the new ones fit in your small ears I will give Sony another chance and try these.
It's not just Sony, Sennheiser, JBL, and others just for example. Also it seems the rechargeable batteries in the ear buds degrade faster than other formats...
I was hoping these would be a straight upgrade to the Linkbuds S but it sounds like the ANC is not as good. Hopefully they will update the Linkbuds S still at some point.
😮 I had the Sony WF-C700N & the bass reduces if I turned it up any higher then 65-75% volume the bass cuts down. I thought the bass was pretty good on these cheaper headphones from Sony & hoping these might have slightly more bass but overall cleaner sound for most part
Another informative and comprehensive review on these new Sony buds Bro!! Like how you explain the new Lifestyle features of these buds! 🙌 Don't think I'll be using any of these, especially the voice commands feature, and in public - just imagine yelling at your buds to, "Volume Up or Down" in the shopping centre. 😂 The tapping on the bone in front of your ears is a nice feature. At this high price range, I share the same feeling as you that the case should definitely have wireless charging, especially other (cheaper) Chinese brands have it. And Sony is concentrated on this new 'Lifestyle' thing - be helpful to charge the case on the go with reverse wireless charging from your phone... I think you should have compared this case against the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro or Buds FE cases because they're of the same clam shell shape and Air Pods are stem style, so its case is different... The mic performance is solid too. Looking forward to your next one Brother.
I think you got the names mixed up. These are the Sony Linkbuds Fit & they came out along with the Sony Linkbuds Open which are the donut hole ones. Either way, the Fit buds have my interest as a oneplus buds pro 1 owner.
I might like the wf-1000xm5 bc the came out w a Smoky Pink colorway that blends in w my skin tone more & They hv wireless charging & they'll probb b on sale for BlackFriday/Cyber Mon
For me, the fit on the Linkbuds S is solid, but over the course of an hour or two.. I find myself doing less "re-adjusting" with the Linkbuds Fit due to the wingtip. As far as sound, I wouldn't really say there's a big advantage either way.
Can i use it without the wingtips? Been searching for a tws for side sleeping that also sounds good. I cannot side sleep on the the original Linkbuds S, even though it's tiny it protudes a bit.
The Pixel Buds Pro 2 were so comfortable for me and stayed on so well but I was really disappointed with the sound. They sound muffled and boxy and no amount of EQ ever made them sound right. I tried the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and those sound great right out of the box but they just refuse to stay in my ears. I'm hoping these Linkbuds are the answer

I am in doubt to buy these or the Pixel Buds Pro 2?? Which is better overall?
Haven’t tried the Pixel Buds

I wish they brought that "Background music effect" to the xm5 headphones. It reminds me of the old Surround VPT they had on the xm3's

Are they loud enough how’s the volume
They're loud enough for me...I did find the WF100XM5 to be slightly louder, though.
Can you briefly share how these compare to Sony’s Linkbuds S? Mainly in sound and fit
For me, the fit on the Linkbuds S is solid, but over the course of an hour or two.. I find myself doing less "re-adjusting" with the Linkbuds Fit due to the wingtip. As far as sound, I wouldn't really say there's a big advantage either way.
Those were not the open fit,as you were referring as so. They were just the linkbuds fit.
Can i use it without the wingtips? Been searching for a tws for side sleeping that also sounds good. I cannot side sleep on the the original Linkbuds S, even though it's tiny it protudes a bit.
You could use them without the wingtip, but they don't stay in place very well. Especially with the way the eartip is designed.
Just by the case in the thumbnail , I thought it was the samsung buds Fe. 😂💀
Great review.👌
Haha...it does kinda look like it!
are u going to do a comparison with the sony link open buds and the the soundcore aerofit open ear and the price difference
Probably not. The Aerofit 2 sound better for sure.
You should try the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2. They're very small and have a small stability fin, too
I'm definitely due to try those!
The Pixel Buds Pro 2 were so comfortable for me and stayed on so well but I was really disappointed with the sound. They sound muffled and boxy and no amount of EQ ever made them sound right. I tried the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and those sound great right out of the box but they just refuse to stay in my ears. I'm hoping these Linkbuds are the answer
These aren't open earbuds. Sony's new open linkbuds might be better imo. I wonder how they'd compare to the new Soundcore Aerofit 2's
The actual open are better than the last gen for sure, but the Aerofit 2 have a more powerful sound.
its double the thickness of the AirPods Pro. 🤔
