Sony LinkBuds: Specifications
Starting with the design, the Sony LinkBuds look unlike any other TWS earbud in the market. The company has opted for an open ring design, which it claims naturally blends ambient and digital sound. The earbuds weigh only ~4 grams and are super lightweight.
Sony further claims they are comfortable enough to wear all day and support transparency features, enabling you to have conversations without ever taking the earbuds out of your ears. The Sony Linkbuds include 12mm ring drivers, which paired with the V1 integrated processor, help deliver a rich audio experience. Also, the earbuds come with 360 Reality Audio and DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) for an even immersive experience.
Sony LinkBuds also support a number of other cool features, such as Precise Voice Pickup technology to enable the recipient to hear your voice clearly, Speak to Chat that pauses the music as soon as you start speaking to someone, wider area for touch controls, and more. The earbuds also come with Adaptative Volume control, which automatically optimizes the volume based on your environment.
The LinkBuds come in two colorways, i.e Black and Grey, and have an IPX4 water resistance rating. As for the battery life, the earbuds will get up to 5.5 hours of listening time on a single charge and another 12 hours with the charging case.
