Sony earbuds review Archives

Buy at Amazon Let me start by admitting something, I’m an unapologetic fan of in-ear buds. They’re discreet, pocket-friendly, and, more often than not, a solid bet for noise cancellation. I’ve tested countless pairs of over the years, and I still find myself gravitating toward these tiny titans of audio. So, when Sony drops a new pair aimed at delivering flagship features at a not-so-flagship price, I pay attention and after spending a good chunk of time with them, here’s how they stack up. Design The Sony LinkBuds Fit blend style and tech with a playful yet premium design. Sony isn’t exactly known for bold designs, the XM series is great, but visually forgettable. The LinkBuds Fit, however, brings some personality to the table. Their bubble-like shape, rounded finish, and pearl-effect charging case lid give them a playful yet polished aesthetic. These buds aim to double as tech and an accessory. And honestly, they pull it off. Small, sleek, and with a soft-touch silicone exterior, they look and feel premium in-ear. Fit The ergonomic design and adjustable wings ensure a snug, comfortable fit for all-day wear. A good fit can make or break any pair of earbuds, and here, Sony gets it right. The LinkBuds Fit comes with customisable ear tips and soft silicone wings that help the buds stay securely in place. Initially, I was sceptical about those little fins as they looked awkward. But after a few days of wear, I stopped noticing them entirely. Whether commuting or moving around, they stayed snug without causing discomfort.

However, higher frequencies can feel a bit harsh, especially on vocals and cymbals. There’s noticeable sibilance with “S” sounds and plosives, which can be grating over time. For the price, they hold their own, but options like the Sennheiser Accentum offer a more refined audio experience in the same range. Features Sony includes some clever additions: Sound Connect App: Customise EQ, adjust noise cancellation, and update firmware. Head-Tap Gestures: Tap near your ear to control playback—more intuitive than touch controls and works surprisingly well. However, noise cancellation is just okay. It dulls low-frequency noises (traffic, engines) but struggles with voices and keyboard clicks. If ANC is a priority, you might want to look elsewhere. Battery The LinkBuds Fit deliver: 5.5 hours per charge (with ANC on). 21 hours total with the charging case. 5-minute quick charge 1 extra hour of playback. These numbers are solid but not industry-leading. If all-day battery is critical, some rivals offer longer endurance. Also Read: Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 Review
